We’re delighted to introduce ourselves as the new team behind The Ship Inn. I’m Josh, your landlord, here with my partner, Lottie, and our little one, Eadie Mae. Together, we’re proud to call this historic village pub in the heart of South Devon our home.

Nestled in the picturesque waterside village of Noss Mayo, The Ship Inn blends centuries-old character with modern comforts, offering a warm and inviting escape for locals and visitors alike. Whether you’re seeking a cosy fireside pint, a hearty meal with loved ones, or a leisurely lunch in our stunning waterside garden, you’ll find something special here.

Our mission is simple: to create a welcoming space where everyone feels at home. Enjoy delicious food crafted from quality, locally sourced ingredients, alongside a range of local beverages that celebrate the best of South Devon. With breathtaking views, a relaxed atmosphere, and our dedication to excellent service, we aim to make every visit a memorable one.

Come and experience the magic of The Ship Inn for yourself. We can’t wait to welcome you.

Whether you’re soaking up the sun in our garden or catching the breeze by the water, make sure there’s a spritz in hand. From zingy Sparkling Margaritas to citrus-kissed Allora Limone, the ever-refreshing Pimm’s Fizz, and the blush-pink charm of a Lillet Rosé Spritz (just to name a few), every glass is light, vibrant, and bursting with summer flavour.

Gather the family for a laid-back meal in glorious Noss Mayo, where great food, good vibes, and our sunny pub garden await. Treat Dad to our legendary Westcountry roast beef with all the trimmings, classic fish and chips, or a fresh day boat fish special, alongside a pint of local brew, whatever he loves, we’ve got you covered.

The beautiful village of Noss Mayo is 10 miles East of Plymouth and lies on the South Side of the Yealm estuary in South West Devon. Newton Ferrers lies to the North. The tidal estuary is stunningly beautiful, surrounded by rolling wooded hills. Protected from the storms of the channel, it is ideal sailing waters and boat hire is readily available. It is also beautiful for long or short walks with The Ship Inn being the perfect place to stop for a drink, lunch or dinner.

Please note that access to the pub via the tidal car park may be affected by the tide during your visit for those with mobility issues. If the tide is in, you may need to use the Passage Road entrance which has stairs to enter or exit, as access via the tidal car park can become restricted. We recommend checking tide times in advance or contacting us for assistance.
