The Ship in Wycombe

Amazing, just had the Nduja pizza with my stunningly partner Liz Cole-Nelson and it was frankly the BEST pizza I have had in the UK. The service from Joe and the lady behind the bar was easy and friendly.... this is an amazing place and the chef is a different class.... truly truly amazing...if you have a bad meal here. (pizza only) then contact me , and I'll pay.... Craig & Liz

Very low ceiling. Very busy but bar service was very quick so very impressed.

Excellent pub,large outside area. Superb beer (Hazy IPA) from the local Marlow brewery. Nice friendly staff.

Nice little pub and beer garden with TVs

Great dog friendly pub in the Marlow Town centre

Very nice pub during the day and the garden is lovely, weekends get busy which is also nice with the Dj they have on. Sean is genuinely lovely and very friendly also knowledgeable about the selection of alcohol they have. Will definitely be returning, especially if he’s on shift. <3

Great Guinness & amazing Pizza Highly recommend !!!

Perfect for the football and a great little outdoor space!

Fairly busy. Looks like a young crowd end up there in the evening

Nice little club, "classic" house music, great people

We often pop here for a drink when we visit in Marlow. The staff are friendly and welcoming, providing a good service. We haven't eaten here, but the pizzas look and smell amazing. The atmosphere is great, with generally plenty of locals. There's a cosy fire on each side, and dogs are welcome. It is a great place to visit.

I've been going to this pub for nearly 50 years. I rather like it and it's not changed muchl

So they are not serving food because the kitchen is closed but yet they say its okay to bring in dominos from next door. Brill, except your not allowed to eat the dominos?? Very bizzare indeed

Good beer and interesting interior.

Ok for a late drink. Doesn't have much atmosphere.

Went to the bar and asked for the barman to recommend a double Gin and Tonic, which he did and was very helpful, so I didn’t begrudge the price of 12.95 as much, it tasted great. Then, only 2 minutes after I had returned to where I was sitting, another, and very surly, member of staff told everyone that the bar was closed and we all had to leave. I asked if I could finish my drink and she retorted that I “should have thought about that before”. No drinking up time, no notice that the bar was closing, nothing.

Absolutely brilliant!!!! Live music on a Thursday night (Steph Willis). The crowd was varied in ages and lots up dancing. The bar staff were welcoming and attentive. Never been before but will certainly be back...and would 100% recommend it!

Fantastic service from the guys behind the bar, electric entertainment on a Thursday night (Steph Willis) and a great ambience.

A very old pub in the centre of Marlow, it could be as old as the town itself. Nice to see such a nice example survive and prosper. Beer is well-kept with a reasonable range of choices. Food is decent pub quality. Evenings can get quite busy, but with good weather the space in the rear garden can be used. There was a time when Marlow had many more pubs, sadly many seem to have closed. The Ship has survived because it is popular, and it is popular because it is a decent pub.

Came in on quiet Monday eve, just for couple of pints and a pizza. Good selection of beer, I didn’t find the barmaid particularly friendly and you had to get her attention to get served as she was glued to her phone. Outside area was empty but tables all needed clearing in. Bar staff are clearly lazy. Pizza was ok, very oily. We left after 2 pints as there was the danger of a funeral breaking out at this 16th century pub (which btw isn’t a selling point).

My favourite pub in Marlow. It's called the Ship for good reason... keep your head low! They serve excellent pizzas and good beer in a very unique setting. What more could one want? 😄

Quaint pub with low ceilings- Rebellion beer - Pizzas were ok

Fantastic pub with a great selection of beers on draught, the staff are always in good spirits and it's a pleasure to drink there!

Popular early evening drinking place. Low ceilings! Getting very expensive. £6.45 a pint!

Unless you like Rebellion or keg stuff it's not for you.. and I don't.

Went here for lunch, really amazing pizzas with generous toppings. Fantastic lunch deal which was really good value for money. The two staff members were really great, going above and beyond for us! All in all an amazing place.

We always go in the ship when we visit marlow. Good pizzas, great for sport and friendly bar staff. Outside area is good too

Low ceiling period pub. Great friendly staff that work hard to keep everyone's drinks full.

Glad to visit a pub that is cashless for the safety of the customers! Will definitely visit again!

Overall a terrible experience! Rude staff & no signs anywhere stating that they’re cashless! A nice little pub clearly in the hands of a greedy owner, prices extortionate! Avoid this place!

Myself and a colleague were working in the area and decided to pop in for a quick drink. We ordered and everything seemed fine until we offered to pay cash. We were refused that offer. When challenged as to why they wouldn't accept cash the answer was because of COVID and that they had stopped taking cash at the start of the pandemic. We nearly walked out but decided to pay by card. We won't be going back.

Always a good place to have a beer in Marlow. Proper pub with good beer and friendly staff with a good beer garden too.

The oldest pub in Marlow. Looks to have a lovely beer garden. Good beers plesent atmosphere.

Large area outside and good staff

Came here whilst visiting the area on Wednesday. Not much atmosphere. Bar staff were constantly on their mobile phones ‘texting’🤷🏼‍♀️ Asked if food available, but the staff were not sure when the chef was due in. Although a cozy little pub, I don’t think we will pop in here again.

Very nice people food excellent

One of the best all round pubs in Wokingham. Good beer, Food and staff.

Haven’t visited this pub much, after having been advised by others around Marlow. That this pub has an issue with staff. However I decided to give it another go in during the week, sadly what I have been told is correct. The staff are arrogant and downright rude to customers! What happened to the customer is always right ? Which you would’ve thought would be no.1 rule when serving the public. Our Bar man seemed unbothered and unenthusiastic when taking are order, as well as borderline arguing with my partner over her glass which he claimed didn’t have any lipstick on and refused to replace the glass. Maybe it’s time he looked for a non hospitality job! I’d watched this bar man throughout the evening it seemed his mood to progressively worse, could even be described as sulking around the place. Massive downer on the evening! Won’t be rushing back!!

Lovely pub very welcoming staff. i took my little dog with me. Gave my dog water and treats. We sat in front of the lovely fire. Will definitely return when next in the area. Five stars from me

Warm fire, good beer, nice atmosphere

Being from the area originally , I love to pop back quite often , when you can get served they serve good local Ale from the nearby fantastic rebellion brewery . Went down early on the Friday night with my wife to meet family and actually had quite a good night and left as we always do when it becomes impossible to hear anything other than deafening music . Popped back on the Saturday night fairly early so it wasn’t busy , the rugby was well over by then about 8 pm . I ordered a coupe of drinks but forgot something so went back to bar and stood behind two ladies patiently waiting , I was at bar for approximately 10 mins they were there longer , eventually they gave up and walked out without being able to get served , the barmaid saw them leave and went on to serve a group of guys immediately upon arrival at bar in front of me . I politely asked the barman who arrived from around the other side when he has a minute to get my order please , and got a smart reply that he was serving someone else ( who came to bar after me ) It’s the first place I always go to when meeting friends / family in Marlow , but sadly it’s gone down hill in recent years bears little resemblance to the ship I first drank in 35 odd years ago .seems to be left to inexperienced disinterested bar staff with little supervision to me , only my opinion . The owners clearly only wish to cater for the young crowd these days , good luck to them . For a stark contrast in terms of polite , friendly knowledgable approachable courteous bar staff try the chequers in the high street , my new Marlow HQ , foods amazing too .

Great pizzas and fantastic atmosphere. Old world pub with low ceilings so watch your head!

Nice cosy pub with very low ceilings and exposed beams. I saw a fireplace, but it looked like it was gas powered and therefore with energy prices as they are, it was off. Probably a good idea to change it for a DEFRA approved wood fired log burner.

Comfortable High Street pub with good selection of beers and other beverages. Pre-COVID atmosphere has returned.

Always have a great evening here, Always busy and a great atmosphere rain or shine.

Avoid this place at all costs - very unfriendly staff and terrible service - there are much better places in Marlow.

A small quaint old pub, with a good crowd, in a building perfectly designed to smack the top of your head on low roof beams

A 15th century pub house serving local brews. A quaint atmosphere inside but unfortunately they don’t serve any food, except pizza which is also not always served. But a great place to hang out if it’s only for drinks.

Not what it used to be, was a great pub! Now it is awful and way too overpriced!

Lovely 16th century pub with an amazing atmosphere and there was great live music while we were there. Would definitely recommend a visit

Favourite pub in Marlow. Good Garden. Real ales... low beams beware

Only takes card..not cash..as i only had cash..lol

Excellent choice of Rebellion beer. Open Mic night on Wednesdays not to be missed.

Busy pub. Good beer Rebellion overthrow.

While I'm sure it's fine during the day, at night it gets severely crowded which is too much for its limited indoor space and small dance floor to handle. Bouncers on the door can be incredibly rude and like to power play, kicking people out of the queue for ridiculous reasons. Does not deliver the welcoming entrance you would hope for. Would probably go back again during the day as the overall aesthetic of the place does seem pleasant, but never again at night.

The external of the building advertises food but there is none. When we enquired about it, the young girl behind the counter was rude, rolling her eyes and clearly wasn't happy being there. The venue itself is quite dark inside, to be expected with the low ceilings and the ship like decor. The garden area is nice and plenty of seating. Although it wasn't particularly busy when we went maybe a result of the service.

The Ship is an OK pub for evening drinks on the weekend. However, when the sun goes down on a nice Friday night the hired thugs on the door come out to swing their massive you know what. Tatted thugs with previous criminal records and their close family form a cartel on the door and feel the need to punch, throw around, and in general manhandle people for very light offenses in a pretty well-behaved neighborhood. If you are a person in their 20's be prepared to deal with these lawless bouncers propped up by management who do not understand how to run a successful pub. Duke of Clarence bouncers are much more civilized and I highly recommend going there.

Lovely lunchtime atmosphere, friendly staff willing to have a 2 minute conversation. We sat out the back and I can recommend the Rebellion lager from the local brewery

Lovely pub, beautiful beer garden.

Lovely old pub. Would recommend to all. Large garden

Called in here for a drink as we were staying across the road. Very old pub with lots of history and original features. Nice glass of wine

Not sure what has happened, we visited on 2 consecutive Saturday afternoons and found it to be lacking atmosphere, service was ok but just ok. Such a shame as our previous experiences have been amazing!

Great pub, great beer and lovely staff. The kitchen wasn't on when we went but they offered that we go over the road and bring our own food which I thought was lovely. Well worth a trip, the building is super old but is in great condition inside.

Popped in whilst on a night out in Marlow, large pub with good garden, staff friendly and had a good atmosphere

Rowdy crowd. Different type of clientele. ⬇️⬇️ Total opposite of what you'd expect from Marlow.

Fantastic Olde Worlde fashioned pub with beer garden. Low beams and a "proper" pub feel. Super friendly staff. Worth an hour or 2 of anyone's time

Excellent Customer awareness to handle a freak encounter with a strange overbearing intimidating person at the Duke Of Clarence.(same door staff ) This associated venue awareness with joint contact appreciation was professional to assist my dilemma 100%. And I say a great thankyou for an open decent respectable and fortnight analysis to the Door Manager. This was a simple no fuss accurate help ,that could have been totally different outcome without his action. Cheers

Outdoor set up well for the football and good service

Do not visit! Horrible service and security!!!! Many pubs near by please make a detour! They are extremely rude

Great local pub small inside area and cosy outside space for a lunch early afternoon drink or food

Always nice to visit The Ship. On my own this time but always friendly ❤️❤️

Great good food very happy staff. Made you feel welcome.

The worst experience in Marlow!! They made us wait in the queue for almost an 1 hour even though there were people going out and the place was empty. The bodyguard was just talking to people instead of taking us in... Very disappointing and poor service. Do not recommend it!!!

I visited the ship for a drink with a friend & had an awful experience. Firstly, when we entered the Pub, the door staff were very friendly and welcoming. We went to the bar and ordered our drinks, which was nice. The DJ then arrived and set up his speakers etc. I decided to go over and politely ask “I really hope you don’t mind as I’m sure you get a lot of people asking you for a choice of song, but is there any chance I could ask for this song please?” The DJ then went into a 5 minute rant about how rude it was to request a song (at first I thought he was joking then realised he wasn’t all there…). He continued to say how successful he had been in his career as a DJ working at the Ministry of Sound etc. (Not sure how he’s ended up in The Ship but all to there own). The manager then came over and to my complete shock, he said “the DJ gets annoyed when people are rude to him”. Rude? I asked for a song request to a DJ in the most polite way possible and then it clicked with the manager and he then apologised to me. Looking at Trip advisor, I have noticed a few bad reviews about the DJ and that he has the previous to be quite rude & obnoxious. The DJ let’s the ship down massively & I won’t be returning until he’s gone! Avoid at all costs!

A really Lovely place to stay! Staff are super friendly and welcoming, rooms are immaculately clean with all the amenities one could wish for. Would prefer a firmer mattress but that's my choice. Otherwise comfortable. Breakfast good too. Works definitely stay again

We popped in for drinks after a meal elsewhere and had a lovely time. Stayed for a few drinks and really enjoyed it. A good atmosphere and a busy place to be.

Nice atmosphere, good beer but if you are taller then 185cm you need to find spot to sit or pain in the neck is guaranteed.

Beautiful old bar with fantastic staff! Will definitely come back again

Nice pub, great theme. Young staff, but rough round the edges but guess will improve with time!

A nice themed interior and a large, varied outdoor space. Service can be a touch slow on busier nights (though it must be tough to judge staff requirements at the moment) and they close the garden earlier than is preferable (due to neighbours' noise complaints, I believe). Good drink selection.

Where to start? The service is absolutely awful, led by a barman who really should not pursue a career in catering - he's better suited to a job with no human interaction. Ordered two pints of ale and after tasting, we took them back as...

Nice place. Proper 'pub'. Friendly staff. Very welcoming atmosphere.

Busy and great atmosphere, perfect end to our evening

Good pub good atmosphere and busy on a friday night recommended

Out of towner and popped in for a drink. Seems like a nice pub 👍🏼

Lovely historic local pub. Excellent size beer garden

such a nice pub wish it was my local

A traditional English pub dating from the 15th century. Packed with character and even an open log fir3 which is very welcoming. Friendly staff.

Visited lunchtime - spotted a fairly large seating area at the back which attracted us to stop at this pub. Quiet. Friendly staff. We only had a drink but saw some nice pizzas coming out from the kitchen.

Good boozer we had good fun evening

Lovely outdoor space, don't go if yoj are taller than 5 foot 6'.. built for elves and leprechans

I paid a visit to scout for a future event, nice old feel to the place with the low ceiling etc and space at the rear, there were three staff chatting behind the bar so I asked for a pint of Guinness but I attempted...

Low ceilings, great garden, fast staff, late bar. Loved it!

Great place. Great staff. Great service

Roof too low hit my head, admittedly this could be difficult to fix. Friendly service and sports on the telly

I arrived at the pub knowing there were at least 3 available tables in the garden area as I was on the phone to some friends who were already in there however the man at the door said they had no tables available. My friends...

Awesome outside area with a marquee at the back. Very quick service. Friendly staff.

Dropped in here for an afternoon of drinks, lovely outdoor area at the back and great service from the team here, just a shame they dont do food all the time.

As always good fresh local beer and excellent pizza .👍
