Visited at lunch time last Friday. There were 5 or 6 pumps at the bar - a chalk board listed 6 ales so it was probably 6. I had a pint of Zenith by Cross Bay, a 5% ale at £3.20 for the pint. Black Sheep and Doom Bar were spotted, but the others were all something a bit different.

Nice smart pub, looks as though it may have been a row of cottages originally as it is split into sections. I didn't see any of the food but it did smell nice.

Hi.

Just to let everyone know, the Ship was taken over by two local Parbold couples and was given a major refurb in 2011. We also recruited some talented chefs allowing us to deliver quality food using the finest local ingredients (wherever possible!).

Our aim is to create a Great British Pub in this great canalside location. Your feedback is welcomed as we look to continually improve and provide a fantastic dining and drinking experience to every one of our customers.

We moved back home after many years away from Burscough in Sept 2010. The Ship being our " new" local. It was sad, it was once a lovely pub and we were disappointed. In early November it changed hands, and hurray what a difference some TLC makes. Ray, Sandra and all their staff are warm and welcoming. It is a credit to them. many new cask ales on tap, entertainment, great food. A great local, and also a great resteraunt. Well done chaps!!! cant wait for the refurb in a few weeks time.

I've read the last comment posted. I would FULL HEARTEDLY disagree with what was said. I've had a lovely evening. My family and I came in to The Ship to eat. The food was exactly what we came to a canal side pub for. Our meals were beautiful! Fish and chips (Huge fish) , Steak and Ale Pie, Scampi and chips, and I have to say i had the Gammon, it was to die for. We had a good old chat with a long haired bar man, lovely young man ( I'm Sorry we didn't learn his name or whether he was new management) He told us all about the area and the tales of 'the blood tub' . We had a choice of 6 real ales, which included Moorhouses! They even had there own Moorhouse's Ship Inn Ale. (beautiful!) Great time had by all! Maybe the last post just visted at the wrong time!? Although i will say the toilets need some work! Everything else was 10/10! I hope 'The Ship Inn' can survive as a real canal side pub, dogs n' all! It makes a really nice change these days. HIGHLY recommended!
