The Ship Inn

Weybourne

About the restaurant

Welcome to The Ship Inn. We are a pub in the heart of Weybourne.

We have a menu using the best of local produce, including seafood landed on the beach at Weybourne!

We have a great bar area, with a roaring log burner in winter, two dining areas and a lounge.

We are dog friendly but we ask that Fido is kept on leads at all times. Dogs are permitted in the bar, bar dining area and garden, but not in the lounge and main dining room.

A great place for a drink and mardle with locals at the bar, a stop over on your walk or an evening meal. We have something for everyone at the Ship.

The Ship Inn in Weybourne was probably the nicest place I've ever visited. It was friendly, but still professional. The staff were impeccable. The service was great. I was a customer service trainer and believe me. These were some of the best. But...the food was the star of the show. Unbelievable. Tasty no delicious. Great value for money etc etc. Here I tasted one of the best pies I've ever had. Well done to you all. Thank you. X
