Ship Royal - South Tyneside

We were hungry and not knowing the district popped into the ship and royal .Not the smartest pub around but the price was right and we enjoyed our meal corned beef pie lovely basic food no fuss no bother served quickly the waitress was very friendly. would visit again and try something else on the menu for a change.

3 of us recently had lunch here whilst in South Shields town centre. Good selection o bar meals on menu. We had grilled chicken, steak ale pie and egg chips. The food was hot and very tasty. The reasonable price include a 2 for 1 deal. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back.

Went to Ship Royal twice whilst in South Shields.Quite standard menu but excellent value.Very friendly staff and atmosphere Meals were served fairly quick and were very hot real chips!!!! Will go again if in the area.

Well cooked and presented food. Staff warm and friendly and Caffrey's on Tap what more can you want from a pub

Stopped in at Ship and Royal for a last pint on our way back to the B&B after attending a Rugby World Cup match in Newcastle. We weren 't looking for a dance club so glad we saw it. Very nice young lady at the bar, served our favorite UK beer...we were happy. When the manager came to take our glasses after last call, we said thank you very much...and as he walked away, he realized we didn 't have the local accent. He turned back and said Americans? We nodded. What are you doing here? was the next sentence. Thus we got a chance to have a nice conversation about Seattle, Washington and South Shields. Sadly this was our only chance to visit the Ship and Royal but we absolutely will if we ever pass that way again. Great staff!
