The Ship is now under new management - we’ll be making some exciting changes in the coming weeks.
Welcome to The Ship Inn
Tucked into the cobbled streets of historic Rye, The Ship is a proper pub at the heart of the town. A place for locals, visitors, walkers, sailors and Sunday roamers alike - where good beer, honest food and easy conversation come naturally.
We’re proud to serve a thoughtful selection of well-kept cask ales, craft beers, quality wines and seasonal dishes made for sharing.
Whether you’re dropping in for a pint after the sea air, settling in for a long lunch, or gathering friends by the fire, The Ship is a place to feel at home.

The Ship Food Menus
At The Ship, we keep things simple; fresh ingredients, cooked with care.
Our menu changes with the seasons and makes the most of local produce wherever possible.
Expect a mix of pub classics and lighter, more contemporary dishes, plus daily specials that reflect what’s available and at its best. Sundays are all about traditional roasts with all the trimmings.
