Mejores pubs en Swanage

Been wanting to try this venue for so long. Didn’t disappoint. Will be back for sure.

We were very pleased with the whole experience. From the welcome, the service and the food. We had calamari and tempura prawns to start which were beautifully presented and piping hot. We followed it with seafood linguini which was perfect. All the seafood was tender and delicious, the sauce was so very tasty. My husband had calves liver which looked fantastic, he demolished it very happily. The attention and service was better than we have experienced anywhere recently. I would throughly recommend this gastro pub.

The food was excellent. We had a variety of fish and vegetarian dishes. Nice atmosphere. The service was quite slow, and putting a 12.5% service charge on a party of 4 should quite frankly be illegal. I know you can ask for it to be taken off but it's embarrassing to do this. This would make me probably not return to an otherwise lovely venue.

We were running a little behind on our walk and I phoned to say we would be slightly later and it was no problem whatsoever. The staff were friendly and accommodating and the food, we all had the midweek carvery, was excellent. Dessert was the hot drink and mini pudding was fantastic! Plenty of drinking options too. Highly recommend this place.

Good choice of food and excellent value, the young man that served us was brilliant, will definitely come again with other friends and I fully recommend the Ship in distress for a casual meal and drink.
