Please meet Kelly, The Ship’s new owner.

Kelly, has transformed The Ship with her signature aesthetic, seamlessly blending sophisticated interiors with a thoughtfully curated, refined menu.

Her remarkable career—spanning hospitality, the corporate world, and international business—has shaped her unwavering commitment to crafting warm, memorable experiences for every guest.

With an impeccable eye for design and a passion for seasonal, approachable cuisine, Kelly brings to life her vision of The Ship as a haven of beauty, simplicity, and genuine connection—where outstanding food is best enjoyed in great company.

Welcome to The Ship, Bishops Sutton. Just moments from the historic market town of Alresford, Hampshire, our countryside pub provides a warm welcome for families, patrons and pups. 

We champion the finest seasonal ingredients offering a simple menu of delicious, thoughtful food.

Our drinks roster is similarly pared back. You’ll find great beers, ales and a perfectly-poured pint of Guinness, alongside a curated wine and cocktail list.

Alongside the pub, we have The Ship Studio—a versatile venue space serving coffee and pastries in the daytime. The Ship Studio is also available to hire for workshops, private dining, events and more. To receive our events brochure please get in touch.

Whatever brings you our way, we look forward to welcoming you soon.
