The Ship Inn Northumberland
Northumberland
Low Newton by The Sea

18th Century village pub on square of white washed fisherman's cottages, 50 yards from the North Sea

At The Ship Inn we run a small, busy and efficient kitchen with all our food cooked freshly to order. We pride ourselves on cooking simple food extremely well. We use first class local ingredients and have a very small evening menu which changes daily .

We serve interesting vegetarian food and delicious old fashioned puddings. Nearly all our fish is caught by local fishermen. From June/July until October we serve lobster straight from Newton Bay, arrive at the right time and you will see the 'Lobster man' en route to The Ship walking up the beach with a bucket of lobster in each hand. All meat comes from local farms and is free range.

The Ship Inn Brewery In March 2008, after 9 months of converting our garage, a long held ambition of mine was realised with the opening of our very own Ship Inn Brewery. We were very fortunate to secure the excellent services of brewer Michael Hegarty and our initial brews of Ship Hop Ale, Sandcastles at Dawn and Dolly Day Dream were very well received.

Ten years on and the brewery has moved from strength to strength. The pub is now self sufficient in real ale, with beer brewed on the premises and rolled a mere 10ft from brewery to cellar. The word local has come to mean just that, and with no deliveries from other brewers we have significantly reduced our carbon footprint.
