I visit The Ship occasionally, when I meet up in London with a mate I went to university with in the 70s. We discovered it by accident a few years ago, fell in love with it, and now make a pilgrimage there, for a refreshing pint at the end of a pleasant stroll along the river. It's a real pub with real people. And that is something rare and special these days.

Basic Youngs local just inland from the river, not too far from the Mayflower.

The Ship is a Millwall supporters pub - " no one likes us, we don't care" - as deduced by the large flag over the door, which is hardly a glowing reference, but I didn't feel uncomfortable or unwelcome in any way. I saw the end of the Man Utd v Portsmouth F A Cup game here on TV last Saturday.

This is a fairly typical down to earth South East London local.

I'm afraid to say however that, based on last Saturdays brief visit, ethnics and those who find un-PC comments distateful might prefer to give this pub a wide berth and use the Mayflower instead

Yes, a complete locals pub. One that readily allows a visitor to join in the conversation (as long as no bad comments are made about Millwall). Only one ale on hand pump, but it tasted very good. Could use redecoration, but the solution to that is to sit outside.

Oh, and the prices are much lower than anyplace right on the river. That counts, too.

Have visited The Ship twice recently as part of a local pub crawl. It passed the "shall we have another one here or move on?" test twice. We did three rounds there on the last visit. Small but pleasant outside area at the back. Worth a visit.
