Pubs • Steak • Hotels • British
"We have been coming to Porlock for over 30 years sometimes 2 or 3 times and have stayed at the ship several times in the past. The ship is our go to pub for our meals. We have always been satisfied with good quality food and when we have stayed we have received a lovely hearty breakfast! So what went wrong last night. The service and ambience of the pub was the same as usual and was expecting the same for our meals. Not so I ordered the pork steak which turn out to be a pork chop. I wouldn’t have ordered had I known as by the time the bone and fat is taken away you are left with 2 bits of meat. It was accompanied by one scoop of mash and 2 small tough kale leaves. The other meals were sea bass which my husband always has when it’s on the menu here. The difference this time beautifully presented on a large plate with a portion that looked like a starter. The other meal lamb which was the same. I know the cost of living has gone up but a few extra vegetables would add pennies to a meal. We always spend well over£60 with drinks and in the past left satisfied. But not this time we all left hungry and went back to our cottage for food. Fortunately we haven’t booked another night so will be going else where. Come on Ship I hope you take this on board otherwise you will loose business and we will miss you."
