Reviews in Lancaster

It was a little disconcerting when we walked into the 'Ship' to see that the place was totally deserted! However, patrons gathered quickly to make for a good company. We are asked about drinks immediately, provided with menus and were able to order within minutes. We and our friends were impressed by the quality and quantity of the food: it's a long time since I had whale and chips! There was no time when we felt that we should move and we were able to stay for a long conversation. The only factor that caused us to leave was the need to travel home some 80 miles before darkness fell completely! Thank you for an excellent lunch! We'll be back.

Great restaurant set in a church with loads of lovely features. Staff were very friendly and polite. So much to choose from on the menu and we went for the sultans special set menu. Food was delicious and plenty of it, very good value for money loved everything. Would definitely go again if visiting Lancaster, highly recommended

Perfect Sunday Roast. Hubby had beef and I opted for the guest roast, which was turkey- my favourite! I was very pleased to see that it also came with Yorkshire pudding! Quality and presentation were excellent- we had no room for dessert unfortunately but saw someone else’s and they looked delicious. Will definitely recommend and re-visit.

Very nice food, even though it's pricey. Felt like a traditional English meal with a nice interior, charming staff, and pleasant atmosphere. Would definitely go again.

Two friends both celebrating our birthdays on a cold, wet November day, enjoyed a pleasant lunch. The staff were welcoming, it was very clean and cosy. The lunch choices were adequate and nicely cooked. I had vegetarian lasagna which I’m usually nervous about but was full of veg and tasty with a salad and garlic bread. Reasonably priced, as were the glasses of wine. We had to ask for water but a carafe was brought with glasses full of ice and slices of lemon. We each had chocolate mousse, large, delicious portions. We were comfortable to chat for nearly 3 hours, it was a pleasant, relaxing atmosphere. We’ve both been eating there for years; never disappointed.

We were very early, first customer in which is the reason for down scoring on atmosphere. The service was excellent from all staff, including both greeting and saying goodbye. Prices were a little on the high side, but having said that the food was very good with decent quantities. All in all, if I was visiting Lancaster again in the evening I would certainly go to the Sultan of Lancaster.

Excellent food, generous portion sizes, efficient service and spacious restaurant.

Always outstanding service and beautiful food

Fabulous food and extremely polite, helpful and very pleasant staff. Definitely go back.

Had a lovely roast dinner and dessert at the ship, service was friendly and helpful as I took up the dessert recommendation and it was beautiful! My only slight niggle was we had two course and were in and out within an hour, would have been nice to have a little more time spent over the meal but having said that the food was lovely so much so we have booked to go back

Top quality food and service Highly recommend

Great food at a reasonable price.

Another great meal. Delicious food. Very busy on a Friday, so probably best to book, but one room is dedicated to calm and quiet.

Best meal out we have had in a long time. The haloumi kebabs were spectacular!

Lovely food overall. Fish and chips really nice lovely and fresh. Burger a bit bland and plain not worth the money. The gyros was very nice. Two pout of three not bad. Would go again.

Great meal , and great service to boot. Nice surroundings, busy without it effecting the quality of food and timliness of service. Plenty to eat without over facing, my partner had the hanging chicken kebab!, it looked fantastic and tasted as good as it looked. Will be returning in near future.

We had an excellent meal at the Waterwitch while visiting our daughter who is at the university. The food was great quality and there was plenty of it. The service was excellent and we thoroughly enjoyed our evening. We would recommend and will be back next time we are in Lancaster.
