WELCOME TO THE SHIP

A charming village pub nestled in the heart of West Hanningfield on the unspoiled greenbelt of the Essex city, Chelmsford.

This soul-soothing, local pub offers a fresh, seasonal menu coupled with local craft beverages, all of which can be enjoyed in our vintage, east-coast setting.

Our alfresco lawn is the perfect oasis for any passing visitor or returning local. Take in the panoramic views of the rolling hills or stay warm by our log burner snuggled inside. Both are perfect watching the world pass by with a drink in hand.

Located on the outskirts of Chelmsford, between Stock village and Galleyend, The Ship provides a cosy respite after exploring the surrounding landscape or having fun with the family along the coast. With the hustle & bustle of a vibrant village and the Essex coast just under an hour away, we are a welcome haven for a quality, British pit-stop.

GARDEN HAVEN

Serene spots are a plenty at The Ship. Indulge in our menu and cocktails on our sun-trapped lawn or explore our wine list street side as the world passes by. All decorated with rustic timber planters and wild greenery, you’ll feel encompassed in all you need to relax.
