The Ship Inn is quite simply the best pub in South West Durham. Great beers, great people. Always something to do. Walks, folk nights, book reading, Thursday night quiz. The list goes on. There is only one answer, visit and have a beer!

Great home cooked food and friendly staff!
With its wonderful selection of real ales and lagers, excellent food at competitive prices what's not to love about the Ship Inn. We travel up to Durham every year from Kent and we always call into this wonderful pub for a night out (don't forget to order a taxi).
Enjoyed food, very welcoming and will definitely go back again.
Thank you for a faboulous new years eve party.
Consumed far too much wine and the youngest member of the family fell asleep but otherwise a brilliant night xx

We stayed overnight in our camper and got a really friendly welcome, great choice if beer and dog friendly too. Hopefully the new tenants will continue the great atmosphere and start serving food again.
We stopped off at this small but busy pub for a bite to eat. We opted for two small Sunday dinners and two coffees. The drinks came out first followed by the dinners . They were piping hot and came with plenty of meat , five types of vegetables, three types of potatoes, Yorkshire pudding and lashings of gravy all at a reasonable price. This was a very pleasurable experience and we hope to be back soon.
Fabulous hospitality, the landlord and landlady made us so welcome. Warm fire and great food, we will be back soon!
Came for burger night on Saturday. Brilliant we all loved the burgers and fries. Beers are still up to standard as is the crack. The ship is great....
