The Ship Tavern

A hidden gem. A historic treasure tucked away right behind Holborn station! The atmosphere, the service, the food, the history are absolutely amazing. The padron peppers were heavenly. The bread was hot and fresh, and the fish'n'chips were gigantic and, quite simply, flawless. Being here made me feel like a fairytale hero. 10/10 will come again!

What a delightful afternoon Sunday Roast. While you may have to explore a bit to find it, this historic tavern is not to be missed. The dinner upstairs in the Oak Room was delicious and the staff were amazing. Even with the large crowd, we were pampered and well taken care of. They were all friendly and helpful with our first British Sunday Roast experience. Explaining the meal and suggesting a wonderful ale to accompany it. They even celebrated our 25th anniversary with us. We will definitely mark this as a not to be missed experience in London.

We enjoyed a very delicious Sunday Roast at the Ship Tavern. We dined in the upstairs Oak Dining Room, which has a very traditional atmosphere. We shared a Butchers Board which came with the roast lamb, beef and pork. All of the meats were so delicious and full of flavour. The staff also brought out some sauces to go with each of the meats which complimented them perfectly. I found the Butcher's Board to be very filling, with a generous serve of the meats and lots of trimmings. If I had to pick a favourite roast it would be the beef with the horseradish sauce. Delicious! But you couldn't go wrong ordering any of the roasts really! I would definitely recommend booking as it can get quite busy! Also if you're into dark ales, you can't go past the Old Peculiar with your roast. A great place to come and enjoy a Sunday Roast in London!

If you’re looking for a classic UK pub atmosphere, The Ship Tavern is an incredible choice. It has that authentic, traditional feel that makes you want to settle in and stay for a while. The Food & Drink: The Food: We ordered the fish and chips and a burger, and both were awesome. The portions are big, very tasty, and definitely hit the spot. The Beer: They have a great variety of beers on tap. I tried the Old Peculier, and honestly, I think it tastes way better than Guinness—definitely worth a try if you’re a fan of dark ales. Value: For one order of fish and chips, a burger, and four beers, we paid £70, which felt very fair for the quality and the central location. The Experience: The staff was friendly and welcoming, adding to the great vibe of the place. It’s a fantastic spot to enjoy a solid meal and a few pints in a historic setting. Highly recommended for anyone wanting a true London pub experience!
