"A gem in the sea of warehouses, The Ship is the perfect last stop on your West Bottoms pub crawl. Yes, you may feel like you’re walking into an abandoned building from the outside. But walk in and be transported to another place and time. The kitschy, nautical decor is in fact from the original 1935 bar of the same name, discovered in the basement of a West Bottoms warehouse in 2004. Since then it has gone from a speakeasy to liquor license-toting establishment. However, it still maintains that undiscovered charm. Go for the live music and stay for no-fuss drinking." - Faregrounds
"A beautiful spot to enjoy a good drink at the end of a long day!" - My Orange Box
"If you’re looking for a spot to get drinks before dinner or just somewhere that has strong cocktails and good bar food, come to The Ship. Their fries are always seasoned to perfection and the Ship-Fil-A Chicken Sandwich claims to pack “all the flavor without the savior.” They often have live music, and you’re sure to see people who were around for the Carter administration dancing with frozen cocktails in hand next to recent college grads taking Fireball shots. During Halloween, when haunted houses pop up in the surrounding warehouses, The Ship is a great place to recover after getting scared sh*tless by a werewolf holding a chainsaw." - Ryan Bernsten
