Damned good wine at The Ship
The Ship Inn at Levington is a true English countryside pub, with great charm and a long-standing reputation for great food. Levington is just 4 miles east of Ipswich, or 10 minutes by car, and is the very picture of a quintessential English village.
The Ship is a Suffolk Adnams pub where the evening menu is changed every day and locally sourced produce features highly. Dining here is a treat, with mains averaging at £11 per head, and in addition to the real ales the pub offers a really strong wine list. Like all popular pubs, Friday and Saturday nights are the busiest and at these times inside seating may be at a premium.
Children are not allowed in the pub, but they are welcome either at the picnic style tables at the front, or in the rear patio area. However, since taking over the pub in early 2010 the new management have actively adopted a new Dog Friendly policy, and are themselves the proud owners of two chocolate Labradors. The clouded antique brass sign saying "no dogs, no children" remains on the main bar door; but dogs are now welcomed to the main bar, where visitors can also enjoy a meal. Outside the pub, dog water bowls are available. And to the rear of the pub is a well-made patio area with "proper" tables and chairs, should you wish to dine outside.
Access to great dog walking can be found opposite the pub, via a public footpath that leads directly to the start of the Suffolk Coastal Path
and Nacton Village picnic site. Or you can take a short drive back towards Ipswich to enjoy the woodland pleasures of Orwell Country Park.This page last modified on Saturday, May 29, 2010
