Quick info
About The Ship Rotherhithe
On Saint Marychurch Street, The Ship Rotherhithe is a pub with a horseshoe bar, banquettes and a nautical theme throughout. Orders are placed at the bar, and diners find their own table afterward. The menu runs to 31 dishes, including Cumberland Sausages, Steak & Ale Pie and an 8oz Angus Beef Burger served with gherkins, alongside onion rings with garlic mayo. A vegan sausage option sits on the menu too, and Sunday roast is offered. Table games are available for those staying at the bar, and an outdoor garden area includes toys for children. It opens daily and takes walk-ins rather than reservations. Live music or band rehearsals from the neighboring building can sometimes be heard inside.

“Good value for money but the roast was a bit bland, not a lot of flavour nor seasoning. Onion rings w garlic mayo were nice.”
- Oxane Danese
“I pass this pub almost every day, and when I can stop for a pint, I always do. Lovely local pun, great vibe, bathe in the sun all day, and - if you are lucky enough - you will hear the musical band rehearsing from the building next door!!! To add some charm to it, there are toys for kids and a cute little garden. Overall, just lovely.”
- Trenton Van Dusseldorp
“Great local pub with amazing food and fun atmosphere. Came here on Friday night and enjoyed the whole experience. Ordered at the bar and found and open table. A few tables opened but a very lively crowd was enjoy themselves eating, drinking, and chatting. Food came out hot and tasted delicious. Excited to come back and try other items as the steak and ale pie looked delicious on the table next door. Also want to try the Sunday roast as I’ve heard good things. Service was fast and friendly and there’s even table games available if you’d like an activity with your drinks. Highly recommend trying this gem.”

“Came here again today, Tim still at the helm, fantastic staff and great atmosphere from the regulars... …”
- Dominic Hunt
“A great place to eat and relax outside. The staff were friendly and the service was fast. The burger was great. You could taste every ingredient including the vegetables and the whole burger came together to make a tasty and healthy seeming burger. I usually take out the gherkins but these I left in. Looking forward to going back and trying the roast.”
