We pride ourselves on not just producing great food, but also on working with our suppliers to give you the best of Scottish produce.

Our fish and meat is 100% Scottish whether it’s beef from Fife farmers or lobster landed along the East Neuk Coast. Our menus always reflect the changing seasons of our beautiful coastline. We’re the perfect choice for a comforting lunch by the fire, a BBQ by the beach or special occasion with friends.

All of this accompanied by a world-class wine list and traditional ales from local brewers.

Don’t forget our courtesy bus – collecting and dropping off in a 5 mile radius of Elie on Thursday, Friday & Saturday’s. Please contact us to book.

We have 6 beautiful and individually designed double or twin rooms, 4 of which have stunning views over Elie Bay.

All our rooms feature Egyptian cotton sheets, Scottish bathroom products & Nespresso machines alongside comforting coastal interiors.

Elie is surely one of the most beautiful spots within the Kingdom of Fife.

The Ship Inn sits proudly overlooking the beach and is the perfect base to explore our wonderful coastline. Relax on the beach, try some water-skiing or simply take a stroll along the Fife coastal path, Elie has something for everyone.

If you don’t fancy anything too strenuous, grab a pint, sit back, and watch our very own Cricket team take on touring sides throughout the summer…
