Ship Inn
Ship Inn Review
Here you can lift a tankard of stout in the very rooms where Sir Francis Drake and Sir Walter Raleigh enjoyed their ale. Drake, in fact, once wrote, "Next to mine own shippe, I do most love that old Shippe' in Exon." The pub dishes out casual bar fare, from curries to beef and ale pie, either in the bar or at lunch in the beamed and paneled upstairs restaurant.
