That you encounter a little gem, nestled in between the City's amazing architecture, forms part of London life. Situated a few minutes walk from London's Fenchurch Street railway terminus, The Ship is an atmospheric venue, alive with regulars and gamblers glued to the screens, anticipating that big win. The warm and friendly bar staff add to the somewhat crowded excitement of downstairs.

Although I have not tasted the food, I will make a point of doing so…

Great little pub! But, given its size, not great at peak times. Dark and atmospheric - a “proper pub” - but it won’t be everyone’s taste.

More ales than craft beers - but to be expected, given the limitations of the bar’s size. Very good wine list and the Portuguese house wine (both red and white) is very decent!

Another fantastic evening at The Ship. The upstairs was a perfect space for our company event. Maisie was very efficient and friendly.
