The Old Ship Aground

Great place on the old harbour away from the main part of Minehead. My heart sank when I saw the Sunday carvery advertised but as it was getting late we called in and were rewarded with friendly service, a warm and comfortable seating are and a delicious meal. On this occasion,it was towards the end of food service, the chef, Don, came to collect diners and took them to the carvery at the back of the pub in a large dinning space, presumably used at peak times. Don was friendly and chatty and obviously took pride in his carvery offering, explaining some of his ingredients and carving a fresh turkey which was succulent and tasty. All in all a perfect Sunday roast. Highly recommended. Better to book, it's very popular.

Great pub, really enjoyed our ploughmans and cider. Have to say how impressed I was with the girls that served us, very polite, efficient, smiling and good at their job. Downsides, we opted to eat out side as it was a lovely day, and the beer garden certainly looked a bit neglected and there was a very noisy chiller fan that seemed to cut in and out about every three minutes, and was quite invasive into conversations, pity really. But had a good meal despite these slight negatives.

The Old Ship Aground is a lovely pub and restaurant located on the harbour in Minehead. It is a dog-friendly establishment, and ours was even given a complimentary plate of sausage from the chef! The interior is cosy and nicely decorated, with exposed beams and a nautical theme. The food is wonderful value for money, with large portions. The service was excellent. Our waiter was friendly and attentive, and he made sure that we had everything we needed. Overall, we had a wonderful experience at the Old Ship Aground and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Minehead.

Had an amazing meal here last night. My husband and I had ‘The Catch of the Day’,which was Hake on a bed of onions, green cabbage, roasted beetroot and new pots. The flavour was lemony and tasted divine. Our son had the Cod & chips which had been cooked to perfection. Shout out to Rosie who went above and beyond to clean up my sandals for me after I stepped in some dog mess outside☹️
