Let's Play
Bangin' burgers and rockin' rotisserie
At the Ship we like to keep our food simple. Our legendary rotisserie chicken... Fresh, free-range chicken, brined for 24 hours, then marinated in our special seasoning for another 24. Finished off on our flame-grill rotisserie. We use prime-cut British beef in our burgers and make top draw, homemade sauces and sides.
