    Fun atmosphere with lots of TV’s for all of the football. Portable, lottery and pinball. Simple eats but good. Bar was quick and solid. Bartender was friendly and service was him and also good. We had cocktails and nachos and watched some football. Nice stop in after walking around Multnomah Village. Food carts down the street. Parking is a bit dicey with no parking lot but we lucked out with parking right in front. Tons of pedestrians so keep an eye out.

    The best place to go when it's cold outside

    Some friends in the neighborhood and I have gone here twice for their bar trivia nights. It's pretty fun! I'm kind of surprised that this place is as empty as it is. Both nights that we've gone, we've ordered the meatballs and a hummus platter, and I ordered an Italian sandwich for myself. There are TVs every which way you turn, and there is some seating on the sidewalk for the smokers. The meatballs include some garlic bread on the side, and are covered in a chunky marinara sauce with a dusting of parmesan cheese. At $8, it's a good amount of food and tasty, too. Everyone in my party has some kind of sensitivity, so we've ordered them without the cheese and the sauce on the side, and the servers did not bat an eye. The hummus platter is massive! A very generous portion of hummus with tortilla chips, olives, carrots, tomatoes, celery, and probably some other things that I didn't take note of for dipping. Great to munch on through a trivia night! The Italian sandwich is an unexpected gem. Served on ciabatta bread, it's served hot and absolutely piled high with meats. Served with a bag of sea salt kettle chips and a pickle spear. You can order a "single" or a "double" and the double is literally a second sandwich. The single is enough if you're a hungry guy, but the double is perfect if you're starving. As to the drinks, we've usually ordered beers, and they have a pretty good selection. My friend did order an old fashioned one night and said it was decent. The weird thing about this place is the layout of the men's room. It wants to be a multi-user space as the door doesn't lock, but there are no privacy dividers or anything. The urinal and toilet are mounted opposite each other, so one person has to stare at the back of the other (the urinal has been broken both times I've been there). On top of this, there's a sightline from the door into the room directly to the toilet, so...awkwardness abounds.

    I schooled the boys at a game of pool. Fun and upbeat spot. Friday night, busy and open until 2:30. Friendly faces and good, prompt service with a smile. I did not have any food but white claw was cold. I will definitely be back. Thank you.

    Best bar in town. I hesitate to write this review because I don't want everyone to find the Ship, but the fact anyone would rate this establishment less than five stars is a disgrace, and motivated me to spread the word. Very fairly priced drinks, great Chicago dogs, and Touch Tunes.... What more could you want?? On top of that, all of the bartenders are awesome.

    Tuesday open mic with Sarah is so fun and welcoming! The Hot dog with the works and the hummus plate are my favorite things from the menu. Always have a good time here and have been coming back for years!

  • 5/5 Arkturus L. 11 months ago on Google
    I come here every couple weeks to participate in an open mic night. The staff is really friendly and amazingly helpful. The only food I've had here is the chili dog and if you're into that kind of thing it's a tradition - it's really good. The whole vibe here is extremely chill and almost everybody is warm and friendly. It's in Multnomah Village, so there's other stuff to check out with and walking distance too.

    It was my Husband and I 's Dive Bar Friday and the drinks didn't disappoint!

  • 4/5 Burt L. 1 year ago on Google
    A friendly dive bar. Was advised "We have food but you don't want it. Our drinks are good, though!" and it was true!

  • 3/5 Sofia M. 2 years ago on Google
    The food was okay, the server, excellent! We had called ahead and came in to see the America Cup soccer match, there was one person playing, but there was no sound on any screen. We left at halftime to enjoy the match elsewhere, with a better sporty atmosphere. We look forward to trying out our luck sometimes in the evenings when there is live music.

    The best bar in town and Rachel is the best Bartender everrrrrrr. ❤️ Just go.

  • 3/5 Kenneth M. 2 years ago on Google
    A bit run down local pub. The bartender was nice and he was friendly enough. The crowd looked mostly local with roving bands of hippies stopping to take over the outside seating. The food was what you would expect at a bar. Edible but nothing to write home about. The entertainment is a mostly unused pool table and a dart board (you don't want to use the house darts). There are a couple of TV screens that no one looks at. The best entertainment is watching the locals be loud at eachother. Surprised the small amount of people keep it running, it is not crowded.

    I love the ambiance here. I grew up in this neighborhood (well, in Hillsdale anyway) and while the whole area has changed a lot, to the point where it's now almost unrecognizable, the Ship Tavern makes me feel like I'm stepping back in time to the Multnomah of my youth. Not that I spent a whole lot of time in taverns when I was growing up. But still. Oh, and also, the drinks are dead-cheap, which I always appreciate.

    Went there for the Chicago Bears playoff game and was not disappointed at the Chicago fan turnout. Numerous TVs and very cool artifacts around the bar. Food was okay, but beers were inexpensive and the entertainment was just what we were looking for. Bear down!
