The Ship in City of London, Westminster

June 1, 2024 - Came in with a family group of 16. We figured it would be a long-shot to get all of us sat at one time, but the staff came through and found seats for all of us upstairs. We felt so welcomed even though we took over the space for a while. The fish and chips were stellar and the cider on draft was crisp. The family thoroughly enjoyed our meal and would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who needs a good bite to eat.

Calming, spotless interior, friendly barstaff, just enough music without being intrusive and real ale. Definitely a place to drop in for a proper bitter in this bit of London. Will be telling everyone I know.

Dropped in here for a quick lunchtime drink, very friendly people, great pint of beer and decent prices. Bit quiet with so many office staff away from work but still lovely place. Kind of place where you feel at home very quickly and would return if you lived nearby.

Después de haber sido rechazado de otros dos bares de la zona, The Ship estaba más que feliz de recibirnos con un perro. Ocupado abajo pero había muchos asientos libres arriba y nos ofrecieron un tazón de agua para Pamela. El personal fue amable y eficiente.

Fantástico pub antiguo con mucha historia y un exterior extraordinario que vale la pena ver en sí mismo. Buen bar Recomendado

Enjoyed lunch in upstairs dining room. Food very good and excellent service. Lovely floral window boxes outside this old pub. Would recommend

Beautiful historic pub. Great atmosphere, excellent food and very helpful staff. Greatly assisted in choosing our wines and meals. A great place in the middle of London

Pasé mucho tiempo en Internet buscando lugares para comer en el almuerzo para una reunión familiar. El sitio web de The Ship parecía ofrecer todo lo que buscaba. Un amplio menú de base que incluye huevos de scotch! . Imaginen mi sorpresa cuando a su llegada una tarjeta de menú de plástico ofrecía bistec, hamburguesas y papas fritas y muy poco más. Cuando pregunté esto, me dijeron que el sitio web pertenecía al propietario anterior que se negaba a retirarlo. No tengo idea si esto es cierto. Dos tipos de bistec estaban en el menú, pero solo uno disponible. Esto y las hamburguesas llegaron en bandejas cubiertas con servilletas de papel. Este pub es viejo (no hay nada de malo en esto, excepto que visitar los baños es peligroso) y pequeño. El comedor de arriba es básico, solo unas pocas mesas y sillas. El personal estaba tan relajado que era prácticamente horizontal. Cuando se tomó nuestro pedido, no se anotó nada, por lo que se omitieron los artículos. Casa blanca no disponible. Si solo quieres una pinta en la planta baja, entonces este es probablemente el lugar para ti, pero si estás buscando una selección de comida y ambiente en el piso de arriba, encuentra otro lugar. Inste al propietario a resolver el problema del sitio web. Los clientes están siendo engañados.

Un pequeño gran Boozer en la parte trasera de la estación de Fenchurch Street y cerca de Tower Hill.Cerveza, dardos y la mejor carne. Una inspección más cercana revela una súper lista de vinos, una gran selección de Ron, Whisky y GinY una clientela sacada de una novela de Dickens. Espero que continúe durante otros 100 años sin cambiar.

Proper boozer full of city suits. Pint of Pride for less than a 5er. Enjoyed a couple of cheeky pints to break up my studies. Nice atmosphere - they shouldn’t change a thing.

¡Tan grosero! Vinimos a tomar algo después de registrarnos en nuestro hotel, aproximadamente a las 9 pm. Se paró en el bar mirando la carta de vinos. Luego esperó. . . . Y esperé. . . Y esperé. . . Una señora estaba charlando con otros clientes. Lo suficientemente justo. El otro estaba vaciando el lavaplatos. Mirándonos de vez en cuando. Estuvimos de pie allí por unos buenos 5 minutos. Mirando en su dirección. Claramente queriendo una bebida. No había nadie más esperando ser servido. No había ninguna razón para que no sirviéramos o al menos hablamos. Muy molesto, ya que acabábamos de llegar para un fin de semana. Por suerte, justo arriba de la carretera está el fraile con muletas. Mucho más personalidad y personal agradable!

Se metió en el almuerzo. No estaba tan ocupado normal Ignorado por el personal cuando obviamente espera en el bar junto a la persona que recibe el servicio, cuando el miembro más joven del personal se alejó del bar para jugar en su teléfono durante 5 minutos. Y luego dicha persona se negó a servirme ya que hice una excepción. La señora mayor que sirvió lo hizo con el ceño fruncido. Mal día obviamente, pero ambos parecen tener fichas serias en sus hombros. No volveré por un buen rato.

Había cuatro de nosotros. Todos subimos y tuvimos nuestra selección de mesa. La camarera fue extremadamente amable. Ella herramienta nuestra orden del especial del día, hamburguesa. La comida llegó en 15 minutos y disfrutamos de la comida y el ambiente.La comida era buena comida de pub. Recomendaría.

Arriba nos dirigimos en este pub histórico para algunos comida de bar. Fayre estándar, servido por un personal amable. No es demasiado caro. Los niños son bienvenidos si estás visitando la zona. Sin embargo, caballeros, ten cuidado de ir al baño. La puerta es pequeña y las escaleras son traicioneras! ! !

We regularly meet for lunch, having worked together 30 years ago. We returned to the Ship, having enjoyed lunches there before. This time, there were five of us, the food service and friendless of the Staff were great.

Ubicado a pocos pasos de la Torre de Londres, este espectacular pub es una excelente parada para gente de negocios o adultos que necesitan un refrigerio rápido. Construido en 1802, ha mantenido su encantador carácter y gracia. La estructura tiene 2 pisos para los clientes con comida disponible de 12 a 3 por día. En mi visita, hubo bastantes empresarios parando en el almuerzo junto con algunos turistas ocasionales.

Arrivés le vendredi après 19h, plus de repas possible.... tant pis on avait surtout soif !

Lleno de "trajes @ beber en la calle, hablando de los proyectos que he dirigido para el NHS del proyecto. Usted sabe el tipo.

En medio de la ciudad "pubs" abundante es esta pequeña joya. Limpio y amable y la variedad de cerveza era espléndido y agradable ver un pub con calidad Gin's no es sólo su porquería. Gordon's estándar

Such a lovely pub, great beers, friendly staff.... fab food!! Always have a great time when we go in..would definitely recommend to try the real ales and the great selection of craft beers!

El barco es exactamente lo que usted esperaría de un pub británico. El cartel elaborado y la fachada es de lo más acogedor y por dentro es todo de madera con algunos camareros alegre esperando para servirle. Hay las cervezas de barril más habituales unos diferentes, incluyendo una sabrosa IPA. Puedes llevar tu bebida a la acera.

Great pub. By no means a big venue, but the staff will look after you and the beers are fantastic. Best pint of Guinness in the area for sure Very popular in the evening when the office bods finish work

Pub propiamente dicho, auténtica, con una buena variedad de cervezas y cervezas de artesanías y un personal amable. La comida era muy buena en nuestra visita, la hamburguesa era enorme y con una montaña de papas fritas en una bandeja de metal. Pescado y patatas fritas también muy bueno y servido caliente. Estaba lleno de negocios locales - tipos cuando fuimos (un Jueves en noviembre), sin embargo, nos las arreglamos para conseguir una mesa en la habitación más tranquila de arriba. Sin duda, un lugar agradable para pasar la tarde si estás en la zona.

Un viejo estilo London Pub, llegamos sobre las 5:30 de un viernes por la noche, y el lugar estaba lleno, principalmente con los trabajadores de la oficina. Todavía nos sirvieron rápidamente; y todo el mundo era muy amable. La variedad de bebidas es excelente. Por 6:30, los trabajadores estaban saliendo, y el ambiente relajado. No comimos allí, pero la comida era muy buena, y los precios eran razonables.

WE felt we were caught by the bill.We ordered 3 of the £10 daily specials (Thursday was burger and a drink) and a £10 fish and chips with a £1.30 lime and soda and extra pint at £4.20.They gave us a bill for £58. The waitress could not explain how a bill which should have been £45.50 could be so much. They had added 12.5% service charge - NOT SHOWN ANYWHERE ON THE MENU OR BOARD OUTSIDE anfd the cost of a glass of wine - which was included in the £10 meal.Eventually we got the bill down to £53.The food was OK but would not visit again.

This is a small bar up a side street - Crutched Friars, a few minutes walk from Tower of London. Pleasant place to have a quiet pint. There is also another seating area upstairs which is sometimes open.

Great drinks and service was excellent. A small but impressive pub just a stones throw from tower of london

A nice public house along the street from the Double Tree hotel. Staff were friendly and there were a good selection of beers and wines. Food was available but we had already eaten so did not try any. A few locals were drinking there which is always a good sign.

I've been eating out in London for 30 years plus. The scotch egg was fine but the so called Chilli was probably the worst food I've experienced in the city - if there is a chef he should be ashamed -a couple of chilli beans and a dried up sauce with micro wave congealed rice isn't good - and it wasn't !!!!

Das Ship ist ein kleiner PUB in dem man sein Feierabend Bier trinken kann wir waren dort und haben es auch so getan.Für meinen Geschmack ist es zu hell mag eher wen das Licht indirekt ist sonst gibt es nicht viel dazu zu sagen Bier ok PUB zu hell.

One of those places that I just love. The bar is small but friendly, the room upstairs, which can be booked, is comfortable. The gents toilets is downstairs via a very steep spiral staircase, so you need to be a bit sober going down.The food is excellent, bangers and mash being very good, the fish and chips come in a tray that has a newspaper printed on it, a very nice touch that takes me back ages.Any the other good thing is mine host, ab very nice man indeed.

A good place to eat. We have been in london with the family and found this quirky place to eat. The waiter is friendly and the food is really good. The price is affordable and the quality / price relation is very good. I recommend it to anyone who is visiting London and pass through the area. Certainly repeat again.

Great selection of beers and ales. Try the Welsh rarebit for starters and fish burger for mains. Polish off with treacle pudding - delicious!!!

I come here whenever I am in the city for business or pleasure.The beer selection is very good, try the "tribute" and the bar staff are very friendly.This is a small, quaint city pub

Sky Gardenのある20 Fenchurch Streetへ行った後にここでランチをとりました。徒歩５分くらいでした。Sky Gardenにもカフェはあるのですがカフェは世界中どこも似たような雰囲気です。短い旅行期間中に、少しでもイギリスらしい体験をしたければパブランチをお勧めです。スタッフさんも日本のサービスのように愛想よく丁寧。２階は狭いながらもゆったりした雰囲気で寛げます。

I come here often. Bet selection is good and well kept. Food is always of good quality. The upstairs eating area is nicely decked out and not as busy as the ground floor. The staff are friendly and a bit quirky, which I like!

I have been here on a few occasions with colleagues and friends and its a quaint, fun little pub with a really attentive and friendly staff. There is a good selection of ales and food is really good too.

Nice place, but floor was really sticky. Food was nice would go back for lunch as its local. Friendly atmosphere

This pub is situated in a very narrow old building, and is almost always very busy. The main bar is on the ground floor, with city workers drinking at most hours, with the dining area and a smaller bar upstairs. The selection of beer is just ok, but you can barely ever find room to even stand downstairs - unless you're a regular and you're coming here with colleagues, it's probably not a good place to go for this. The food, served in a charming upstairs bit that has about 6 small tables, is quite good, and not too expensive (but certainly not cheap). The waiting staff are not very friendly however, and are often keen to turn you away as quickly as they can if it's a busy day. Dish wise, the fish and chips does the job, and the sliced beef baguette with red onions is very nice.

Don't go just for a quiet drink .. the ub was absolutely heaving with business men who were loud and didn't care what they said or if they were rude and obnoxious. Staff and drinks were ok .... just so so busy !!!

We chose The Ship for its proximity to the Tower of London - about five minutes walk from Tower Hill. It is a very small pub and definitely a favourite of a certain type of city bloke. Walking into the bar I felt quite uncomfortable but was shown upstairs to where our table was waiting. It's fair to say they haven't bothered much with decor. It's a bog standard pub with wooden seats and tables. It was clear that the poor waitress was on her own and pretty rushed off her feet on a Friday lunchtime. We ordered fish and chips and a steak baguette. The batter on the fish was undercooked and the baguette was so hard it cut the roof of my mouth - the steak was tough too. We all left food on our plates. We paid the £40 odd pounds (for three people including three drinks) without complaint as it would have taken too long and the poor waitress was clearly under pressure! I really dislike giving bad reviews but in this place, there is much room for improvement!

Dropped in for a light lunch and a drink whilst in the area. We had passed by and noticed the attractive exterior but this was our first visit to dine here and we were delighted that we did. An old City of London pub still retaining much of it's character and charm, small and bustling with a busy lunchtime trade, visitors and City types all enjoying the hospitality. A good range of draft ales, wine by the glass and a menu offering mainly English dishes, with the option of main meals or bar food at reasonable prices. The waiting staff were very attentive and pleasant but unable to advise on details of the food which I assume was due to the language barrier but, undaunted, we ordered. We sat at a table in the dining room upstairs as the bar was very busy and had a very enjoyable lunch. Would recommend soup of the day and home made pies.

The barmaid snarled at us when we walked in, the barman downstairs sneered at me when I asked for a glass of tap water with a beer, the beer was so flat it had no head within seconds and smelt like it had been pumped through the gents pipes and they had no steak, burgers or chips (just after 7 on Friday 7th November). The only redeeming factor (and why this review isn't 1 star) was the barman/waiter upstairs who was very apologetic for the lack of food. Avoid like the plague - which incidentally was prevalent in this area in the 17th century.

Restaurant and bar near the Doubletree. We had the set lunch. The chicken liver pate had a very nice flavor. The grilled asparagus was fresh and crispy. The Caesar salad had freshly grilled chicken. The panacota was smooth and creamy with just a tinge of sweetness and enhanced by kiwi fruit on top. Service was very good.

As a sole female business traveller, based in the City of London weekdays, I'm always on the lookout for nice places to dine alone, or with colleagues/clients. It was quiet when I went (after 8pm mid week) but it may be that people aren't aware that it's re-opened after a refurb - very impressive surroundings. I highly regarded the staff welcome and attention. My dinner (battered fish, mash and mushy peas) was not the best ever - the batter could have been crisper and there was too much mash (for me) but the kitchen re-opened to serve me so i really can't complain! The downstairs bar is informal with snacks/lunch and upstairs more formal (delightful) for lunch/dinner and private functions possible. I really hope this charming gem of a pub is patronised fully - much better than the proliferations of "chain" pubs and restaurants in London. It really is true - if you don't use it you lose it - so, get in there!

Found this bar by chance and very pleased we did!Located in a quiet back street of City of London, this amazing venue has all the original features of a traditional London pub, beautiful character and grade 2 listed I understand which is great, because its a stunning pub and nothing should be changed! My work colleague had frequented this place before and it was apparently v poor! miserable staff and grumpy old male customers, literally propping up the bar! We decided to risk it, because my colleague who works nearby in finance had told me that it was under new management - what a great decision it was to go through the door!On entering the pub, we had an incredibly warm welcome from a v jolly and friendly chap called Ben, who we later found out is the manager. The great thing about Ben is that he clearly loves people and conversing, so he is definitely in the right job! But more importantly, he has a great eye for detail and a real passion for food and drink, which is again handy in this type of job. What is great, is to see a manager present, who actually knows what they are talking about! Clearly understands the importance of customer service and knows how to deliver it. Far too often you go into a bar and the supposed manager looks like a model out of a Hollister retail clothes store... Looks good but has not got a clue about customer service in my opinion! They spend most of their time looking at the mirror behind the bar in these trendy,glamorous, fad style, all singing all dancing, huge industrial, young people processing bars! When is the young, city workers going to disconnect themselves from the matrix of sheep following like cattle into these superficial bricks and mortar bars and restaurants, who rely solely on their aesthetics! Enough frustration.... I guess I was also that sheep once! We ordered some simple bar snacks - Delicious - Then proceeded to make our way through the selection of unusual and interesting beers. The bar snacks were great, but we needed more substance to soak up the beer. Apparently Ben is hoping to open a full Kitchen soon.... I really hope so for next time!Having made our way through most of the wines, we then switched to making our way through the wine list. Some really good wines at affordable prices, including a superb Rioja and Claret. THE SECRET SURPRISE!The final finale to the night was that Ben insisted on showing us the private room and bar on the floor above. It could probably hold up to 50-60 people and ideal for a party, birthday or quiz night or something... Absolutely fantastic! It had a dart board and table football which was hidden away like a scene out of Bugsy Malone, whilst Ben flipped the tables and venue around! I wired up my ipod to the Stereo and away we went. It was like a scene out of men behaving badly!!!So what was supposed to be a quick drink and a catch up, turned into a mammoth all nighter until Ben finally kicked us out! V Kindly he payed for our taxi, because neither me nor my colleague had any cash. We certainly had spent enough money in the place and the taxi was only to London Bridge, but it was a nice touch I thought.Will definitely be back, just might need to go for dinner before hand... my wife didn't talk to me for 3 days!
