Thursday Treatday- an evening with friends

Ship Inn review 

Tonight I had guests in town from London & Germany, so I thought what could be a better evening than dinner over looking the water. 

We hadn't confirmed details until Friday afternoon on a bank holiday/ half term weekend...lots of places are fully booked. My initial thoughts were the Haven or Pebble Beach because they both have beautiful views. Surprise, surprise, both were fully booked!  

I chose The Ship down on Lymington Quay, with my fingers crossed that we would have a nice meal & service. I was pleasantly surprised!! All of the servers were British and we had an excellent meal. Nothing against foreign or pro national servers, it was just the combination and atmosphere that was lovely. Busy and buzzy feel in the restaurant, great wine, delicious food and good service. We had a relaxed evening, such a treat for our girly night out! Www.theshiplymington.co.uk 

Three of us had the seasonal salad- delicious! So fresh & packed with flavours like Beet root, feta, blueberries, butternut squash and pumpkin seeds. We ordered sides of potatoes- fries, mash & dauphinoise, but to be honest the salad was filling on its own- great portion sizes. The German visitor had the traditional fish & chips and they did Briton proud- yum! 

Love skinny fries & the also do traditional fat chips, best of both! 

They off a mini pudding and coffee option on the dessert menu. I thought it would be petit four size, but they were the size of a small dessert, perfect with any choice of coffee. It was do tasty I had to try a bite before taking a picture to share! 

With great food, service & wine I would give The Ship 💎💎💎. Wonderful girly evening, not rushed even though some tables had a double sitting we were allowed our table all evening to relax, eat and enjoy!
