Great food, great ambiance, great service. It was a rainy day and this was the best pub to stop in and get some great food - soups and fish and chips + beer. Highly recommend and I'll definitely be coming by again! Lots of seating and great character throughout.

When I think of an English pub with good food, great ambiance and even better service...than you will find it here. Stumbled upon this gem while exploring Richmond. I was hungry and thirsty, and this place hit the spot! I hope that I can come back here soon the next time I am visiting. Thanks to the staff for giving me a proper welcome!

Living in Richmond for 50 years The Ship has always been a favourite place to visit . The location is fabulous and the staff always friendly. However yesterday we went for lunch we sat upstairs which was cold in contrast to the warm cosiness downstairs , and we waited literally ages for our food we arrived at 1.30 starters arrived an hour later then there was another hour wait for our mains . It was really disappointing . When the food came it was good but we shouldn?t have had to wait that long .

Really loved this pub. Had lunch on Friday and then went back for drinks on Sat night. Our favourite pub in Richmond. Recommend the fish finger sandwich lunch with a pint of proper job.

Great Pub, very nice atmosphere and the staff is quick, friendly and super chill.Fish and Chips were out of this world!Chips were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, and the fish was just perfect. Will definitely come and dine again.

Tuesday our waitress/bar lady too!! Short staffed or very busy. She coped so well and with such a positive attitude. Our food was hot and tasty. I had the sea bass and mushroom soup. My partner had the burger. We had to wait but we didn't mind at all.

First and last visit. The pub is nice. The food is good. So is the Guinness. We ate upstairs on a not too busy Sunday afternoon, and the service was as bad as I can ever remember getting. Sat for twenty minutes before having to ask for a menu and a drink. Longer to order food. Long wait for food to arrive. Had to seek out a waitress to get a bill. Thankfully, the service charge is discretionary, or I was having it removed, which I can only recall doing once before. Unfortunately, our waitress then had to watch while I selected the 0 tip on the card machine. At that point, her colleague standing behind made sure my injury was insulted by groaning out loud for all to hear.Pity.One final point. I am a dog lover and very happy to have them in bars and even restaurants. Sitting on a dining chair, licking food off the table whilst being petted by a waitress however is questionable.Not recommended.

The salmon dish just tastes like lemon juice. They offered to remake the meal and all they had done, was drain the lemon juice and gave the same piece of salmon back... Staff were courteous about the issue but we will not return and do not recommend for food - very mediocre.

Came for Sunday roast, was expecting good things as we?ve always had great drinks here. I must admit it was probably the worst roast I?ve had in a pub. Small portions of veg and no parsnips as advertised , watery dishwater gravy and a poor excuse for roast potatoes. To add to it all my vegetarian daughter bit into her lovely beef burger! To be fair they did comp the burger and apologised for the mistake. Not great guys, you need to up your game for the price you are charging.

A decent pub, service was a little lacking compared to their peers. Beer selection was fine. Nothing overly wrong here just others do it better. Very, very busy

We maybe were unlucky today it was very busy but we ordered haddock and chips - we waited over an hour for it to be served and when it came it really didn?t taste very good. My husband ate a lot of his but I left most of mine. The lady collecting the plates seemed to avoid us even though ours were put aside I felt she was worried we might complain. We have been before and it has been good but sadly this time not the case.
