Thought this pub would be better than it was. Situated on the main St Austell / Fowey road the 525 bus stops outside. There is a large car park and large garden and patio area. We ordered meals which did not take long to arrive, but the food quality was poor. Fish and chips with mushy peas had a poor fish that was overdone, and the lasagne and salad had poor garlic bread. We chose Fullers London Pride as something different to the usual to drink, and it was foul. Nothing else on that we fancied to drink, so we left the beer in the glasses on the table. Should have took them back, but nothing else on we fancied and we needed to get back to St Austell for the train. Expected more from a busy pub as turnover should have meant better food and drink quality.

We went for a birthday meal and ordered 5 steak meals, asking for the steaks to be well done, Well they came out 20% cremated. and my steak was nothing but fat and gristle so i complained to the bar staff (of which i was offered my money back for the full meal and got it £13.95. The onion rings were also over cooked to a crispy cornflake. We spent Nearly £85.00 on drinks and food. The lady who brought out our meals must of been running "DRAGON CONTROL" she was a very bad mannered woman with bleached white hair in her 50's we asked for mustard and she brought it, then my daughter asked for salad cream as she was walking away she turned around really fast "EYES BULGING" like marty feldman and "SNAPPED of "ANYTHING ELSE" well that was real bad waitressing. The pub was a nice well decorated pub on a mariners theme as you would expect called the ship inn. But i would never go there again.
