Ship Inn, Redbridge

Post by allatc »

The Ship Inn is near the bottom end of the M271 near Southampton docks

Has anyone been there for a pre-cruise lunch ?

We go there quite often for lunch and would recommend it.

I have used this in the past when visiting the Boat Show as it is out of the way from the hustle and bustle during this event. I don't know what it is like now but at the time of my visit I found it overpriced for what is basically pub grub.
The White Horse down the road serves similar pub grub but cheaper but seems to attract a lot of family's with young kids and can be a little loud.

These two pubs are handy for Mayflower terminal as they are near dock gate 20.

Being a tightwad I would wait and have lunch on the ship.

We are on Azura on Sunday for five nights and I thought I would give this place a look.
I had a look at the menu Ray and had the same thought :thumbdown: Pricey.

Looks like Mrs S will be making a couple of rolls up :thumbup:

Only if we get it back in one piece, and after today's weather that might be a miracle :crazy: :crazy:

We went to the Ship Inn on Saturday on our way to Oriana.

Lunch was OK. They do Monday-Thursday special prices of which, being Saturday, we could not avail ourselves.

There are bar snacks which are cheaper than the main menu items.

We thought prices were not too bad.

We left the pub at 1.45, got to the CPS car park at 2.20 and into the Mayflower Terminal at 2.30 which was spot on our embarkation time,
Straight into the check-in queue which took about five minutes and straight through security - no queue, so on the ship by 2.45.

Would definitely do that again unless we had an earlier embarkation time.

We had 2.30 arrival time. Got to terminal at 12.40 ish expecting a wait in the lounge. Was given a green card just as they were calling passengers with green cards. Queue, check-in and straight on board by 1.10pm. And didnt have to fork out for lunch beforehand :sarcasm:
