Hate giving this place a negative review, because as a Brit (from Liverpool), want a this pub nearby to stay thriving, however.. as a Brit I have to call it like it is and address something sour that happened this time. (Note: I have been here many times over several years and have never had any issues. The staff has always been polite, friendly and respectful, food and service always good, like outside of this incident I'd rate it 4-stars). I went to enjoy the England vs. Argentina game today, as I had with previous World Cup games, and something was very very wrong. Immediately at entering I was greeted by new aggressive security people (there were many) that told me "if you can't find a seat you will be kicked out". Very unusual as last two times I was there it was literally everyone standing up and cheering everywhere while buying drinks and ordering food; this time it was half empty and quiet, as if the mood was shut down. Some people standing in what I'll assume are "safe" area's, most sitting. The place is small so there's not a lot of seating, and there were no seats visibly available. I told security I was waiting for my wife to enter and wanted to order something and stood by the bar (near the door), they didn't say anything while I stood there so figured I was fine. Within 1 minute from that moment I was grabbed (GRABBED) by the arm and was told I had to leave and couldn't come back . I went to the back patio with my wife because she arrived the moment I got kicked out - same thing back there. There was a woman security person eyeing everyone and telling them to go to Roscoe's instead, I asked her why she was telling people that when the place wasn't even that busy (compared to last time) and she said oh this is a day job but I actually work for Roscoe's; This sudden presence of intense security was so confronting and obviously making patrons uncomfortable, the place was quiet and many people were leaving. Incredible job Ye old ship management, there's nothing like changing the atmosphere for the worst and pissing off your customers simultaneously. You're a British Pub for crying out loud! No idea how things are going now as I'm elsewhere (not Roscoe's). Avoid this place (at least today), chances are you won't be staying anyway. *Management, want me to change this review? I'd be happy to.. reach out to me - I'd love an apology for this nonsense today and to know that you're going to do better next time. **as a few people mentioned this sounds like fire code issues and they probably got in trouble.. understandable, I get it, but still not ok to treat customers poorly. If security is going to be that interactive with customers you need to hire individuals with better communications and people skills. ***photos added are from previous times attending (before security) and as mentioned, there was never any issues at the old ship before and the staff was always polite and friendly. Take this post for what it is, my observation and experience as a patron - don't be a wanker. read more

The Olde Ship used to be my favorite restaurant and I would celebrate my birthday and Father's Day there every year. However, after our experience last weekend, I don't know if I'll be returning any time soon. We went to celebrate Father's Day and my birthday and we're seated quickly. While the restaurant wasn't terribly crowded, the service was awful. The blonde waitress with the British accent was very rude and yelled at my son's (15, 18, and 21) which they later said made then feel uncomfortable and unwelcome. The service was very slow and we only had one water refill, despite asking repeatedly, in almost 3 hours. They were also out of multiple items including scotch eggs, sausage rolls, steak and ale pies, and sticky coffee pudding (they only had two). We never received our scotch eggs and sausage rolls and it wasn't until I asked about them after the entrees came that I was told they had run out. And we were never told that the beef wellington, which we ordered in place of the steak and ale pies that they had run out of, was almost $20 more than the steak and ale pies. Then, the bill came and the scotch eggs and sausage rolls were still on the bill, which I failed to notice at the time, so we had to return and ask for a credit for those two items. This was the worst experience we've had at this restaurant. We've had the blonde waitress before and she can be abrupt but this time, she crossed the line into being downright rude and we all felt unwelcome as a result. And to receive the treatment and have this many issues while celebrating special family events was disappointing. I'm not sure if and when I'll be back after the poor treatment we received which is a shame because I do love their food. read more

My family and I decided to visit for the first time for British cuisine. It's not a far departure from foods of other cultures around the locality, but you'll notice differences between British and American English, for example. Many of their dishes include chips, which during my visit, resembled steak fries due to their thickness. You'll also see that curry is a signature dish in the menu, which reflects how Anglo-Indian cuisine has maintained popular influence in the United Kingdom. I ordered Cutty Sark's curry with chicken, rice, and chips at medium spice. The name is derived from a British merchant vessel that operated during the late 1800s. The curry had a mix of savory and sweet flavors, which reminded me of both Japanese and Indian cuisines at the same time. I couldn't say with certainty that the curry fit into just one cuisine. Packed with some heat and bold in spice, it's a delightful and large dish if you desire a lot of flavor. Where the curry went a little off course was the addition of celery. The petiole is strongly flavored and distracts from the curry in my perhaps controversial opinion. Curry seems to better mix with potatoes and carrots. I tried some of the bacon sarnie as well. The word "sarnie" is an affectionate diminutive for "sandwich." American bacon usually comes from pork belly, which provides a flavorful yet oily crispiness. However, the British variant usually comes from the loin, which is meatier and leaner. I thought of the bacon here as similar to a savory ham. The sarnie bread is fried in fat to emphasize buttery flavor. The restaurant, filled with English decorations, has the style of a cozy and dim pub. There's a good amount of small wooden booths with cracked leather seating. Our server was really nice and made sure we got everything we needed despite the busyness of the restaurant. For example, my curry came with a chutney, and I had asked for a lid to take it home. While I forgot to take the chutney home, she went outside as she noticed that we took the back exit to look at their double-decker bus. She even offered to take a picture of us. The service deserves a lot of kudos, and we were grateful for her consideration. read more

My girlfriend and I decided to reward ourselves with a lunch date here after tackling the nearby trail behind Ralphs. After burning a few calories, we were more than ready to put them all right back. Upon entering, we stood at the front for about a minute before being acknowledged and shown to a booth. Not exactly a dramatic wait, but just enough time for me to start wondering whether we'd accidentally wandered into a museum exhibit instead of a restaurant. And honestly, that wouldn't have been the worst thing. The décor here is fantastic. While waiting, I found myself admiring all the details and soaking in the atmosphere. It genuinely felt like we'd stepped into another country without the hassle of passports, customs, or a 10-hour flight. Having never been to a British pub before, I was excited to experience something different. We were seated in a cozy leather booth that looked straight out of a vintage European train car. "Cozy" is definitely the operative word here. If you're dining with someone, prepare for the possibility of an accidental knee-to-knee alliance. It wasn't an issue for us, but taller guests might find themselves wishing for just a few more inches of legroom. For our meals, I went with one of their signature dishes, the fish and chips, while my girlfriend ordered the seafood platter. Looking to start things off properly, we asked our server for an appetizer recommendation. He suggested the chips with curry sauce, which sounded great at the time. What we didn't realize was that our entrées were already arriving with enough fries to sustain a small village. When the food landed, we suddenly found ourselves in possession of what felt like the restaurant's entire potato inventory. The curry sauce itself was tasty, but in hindsight, something like the garlic mushrooms or vegetarian samosas might have given us a little more variety. I ordered the two-piece cod fish and chips, which came with a mountain of steak fries and a tiny scoop of coleslaw that looked like it had wandered onto the plate by mistake. The fish was good, but the portion was impressively hearty. I made it about halfway through before my body politely informed me that further eating would require a nap. The curry sauce was enjoyable, though not quite the life-changing experience I'd secretly hoped for. The real MVP was our server, who remained friendly and attentive throughout the meal despite looking like he was covering half the restaurant by himself. He checked in regularly and did a great job taking care of us. Overall, the atmosphere was the highlight of the visit. Between the immersive décor, cozy pub vibes, and generous portions, it was a fun and memorable experience. Just be warned: if you order fries as an appetizer, make sure you're prepared to commit to a serious relationship with potatoes. read more

The food here is ok the scotch eggs were great. But they fish and chips were just ok. You could tell the fries had been sitting out for a while. And the fish was on the bland side. But they are served with a spicy mustard. Which made the meal better. I did really enjoy the atmosphere. And the staff was really friendly.

I had a good experience at The Olde Ship (Fullerton). I ordered the Clam Chowder Bowl ($12) and Fish and Chips ($28 - One Piece of Haddock). The food is clean, fresh, and filling. I arrived at The Olde Ship (Fullerton) on Saturday (around 1:43PM). Parking is not the most convenient. The primary parking is street parking; sign says, "2 Hour Parking - 8AM to 4PM - except Sat & Sun." There's also a very small rear lot, but it's difficult to use. Staff is well-rehearsed and professional. Staff (Chris) is also helpful and hardworking. Chris politely answered all our questions. The Clam Chowder Bowl was ready within three minutes and 30 seconds. And all the food arrived in 16 minutes. Decent pace. As mentioned, I ordered the Clam Chowder Bowl ($12) and Fish and Chips ($28 - One Piece of Haddock). Personally, I enjoyed the Clam Chowder much more than the battered fish. The Clam Chowder is very creamy, generously seasoned, and filled with fresh ingredients. The clams are thick and plump; the potatoes, carrots, and celery are so soft that it melts apart in your mouth; and this hearty soup had a smooth, thick consistency. Its accompanying bread softens as it hungrily absorbs this piping hot chowder. YUM! The Fish and Chips ($28 - One Piece of Haddock) is fairly bland. The breaded fish gets mushy very quickly, and some moments tasted like mouthfuls of dough. The Haddock had a clean flavor, and I appreciated its springy thickness. Surprisingly, the chips (aka: fries) stole the show with its golden skin and generous thickness. These big fries had an attractive "CRUNCH!" as I but into them; its primary flavor is fresh potatoes. Regarding ambiance, The Olde Ship (Fullerton) is gorgeous! It's decorated lovingly, and the decor makes the guest feel charmed and comfortable. The location is also very clean and family friendly (ex: There's a stack of high chairs for kids). There's also two gender neutral restrooms. The late 80s music is also catchy. Surprisingly, there's no television screens; however, I did notice an unused projector on the ceiling. Overall, I had a good experience at The Olde Ship (Fullerton). The food is filling and freshly made. I also truly appreciated their Clam Chowder Bowl. If curious, I'd recommend. 4.6 out of 5 read more

Celebrating Christmas Eve at The Olde Ship has definitely been a family tradition for many years for us! They decorate it up so beautifully and it has the best vibrant and festive atmosphere anywhere! They have fabulous British food and the best clam chowder around daily. They also have a great beer selection and a full bar with a pint or a toddy to delight anyone. If you've never been run, don't walk because aboard the ship you're but a stranger once! If you're really lucky, you'll get the extremely unique service of everyone's favorite bartender, Danny! read more

This place had a weird vibe. Some middle-aged guys sitting near me were creepy and rude and I was just minding my own business. The bartender and waitress did not seem friendly either. The people there gave me the vibe of an uncouth rural town type of pub. It did not seem to be a place where young and hip people hang out. The English breakfast was greasy and overpriced for the quality imo. Everything seemed to be soaked in oil. I wanted to try something new but I was disappointed and repulsed by the experience. If you want to have your meal in peace and comfortably hang out with friends, I'd avoid this place and stick to the bars a block down in downtown next time. read more

Alright UK, you win. The English Breakfast is superior to the American breakfast. Everything is nice oily and hearty here, you have GOT to get the fried bread with your brekkie. Parking on the street or in the back. Service was great, nice servers read more

It's been 15 years since my one and only visit to The Olde Ship! Definitely an upgrade. Why did I go back? My husband has been wanting to try a Traditional British Breakfast, and they have one. The not so pleasant smell is still there, but after being seated a few minutes, we didn't notice it. I don't know what it is, but it's definitely not an inviting aroma. Hubby ordered what we came for, the Traditional British Breakfast, and added a side of Black Pudding. It's a large platter of food with baked beans, tomatoes, mushrooms, two fried eggs, fried bread, a banger, English bacon, and of course, his side of Black Pudding. The meal was served with a container of really tasty mustard, and our server highly recommended the "brown sauce" instead of ketchup, which is HP Sauce. I have to agree with her, the HP sauce was really good! Kind of like ketchup with worcestershire. I sampled everything on his plate and it was definitely interesting, considering I had never tried many of those items. The veggies/beans were great, and I loved the banger. English bacon sort of reminded us of thinly sliced ham, it was pretty good. The Black Pudding actually had a better flavor than I was expecting, kind of earthy with a warm spice, like allspice. Texturally though, I couldn't handle more than one bite. I didn't try the bread because he said it was just too greasy to really enjoy. I had their Fish & Chips, ordered two pieces of cod. Oh my! One piece would have been plenty, as they are HUGE. I brought the other one home. It was served piping hot, the batter was CRISPY and the fish was super flakey and delicious. The fries were fine, and you get loads of them. Their tartar sauce is really good! Our server, Rusty, was so sweet and friendly, she made us feel very welcome there. We're both glad we tried the British Breakfast, although i'm not sure it's something either of us will be craving in the future. Hopefully it won't be another 15 years before I come back! read more

Stopped by The Olde Ship in Fullerton and had a great experience. If you're a fan of classic British pub food, this place delivers. I had some of the classics -- fish & chips, cottage pie, English breakfast, Bridie, and chippy fries with curry sauce. Everything was flavorful and satisfying, especially with a proper pint to go with it. The vibe is authentic and cozy, like a traditional UK pub. What really stood out was the service -- our waitress was fantastic: friendly, attentive, and made us feel right at home. Whether you're craving comfort food or just want a good pint in a relaxed setting, this spot is definitely worth a visit. Will absolutely be coming back! read more

Went there for the world cup England Norway match July 11th. Got there at 11 AM when they opened. Got a prime table in front of the large outdoor TV they had set up on the patio. Mind you we got there at 11 AM for a 2 PM game. It was hot. But they set up umbrellas and they had a water station with ice set up outside. Our waiter was very cool. He handled our orders quickly and efficiently. They had a limited menu because of the crowd they were expecting. And the crowd did show up! About 150 people on patio at game start. I had the cheeseburger. Came out hot and well done as I asked. Wife had the fish and chips. Delicious. Drinks were strong and cold. As game continued service did slow down. But thats expected right? Wil def be back to check out the other menu items. Def a English pub experience in Orange County. I lived by the Olde Ship on 17th street in Santa Ana. That one closed down. But I will be making the trip to this one. Cheers! read more

Long overdue review. Authentic and quaint British pub nestled in Fullerton. Great selection of beers and excellent food options, particularly Cutty Sark's curry. Make sure you add the naan for proper dipping and scooping up of the lingering curry sauce. The spice level options are nice to tailor to different palates. The medium was still nice and spicy (peppery not chili). We always enjoy a proper pint (plus a few more) and love the outdoor seating. We recently brought our pup with us and the waitstaff doted on him just wonderfully. Their lunch portions are perfect if you're looking to have a few extra pints and not fill up on a whole entree. Jeff took excellent care of us and his hospitality just elevated our experience. Can't wait to try that traditional English breakfast! One of the few spots that offers it on the menu! read more

Pretty good. Not great, but honestly a better experience than anything. I've always wanted to try this place, being that I always pass by when driving up and down Harbor, and the entire visit was... adequate. I will say, the food was really good. My issues are really the price and service. Had no idea they'd charge us a fee for splitting our plate. Had me and my guest known tho we would've just ate off of one plate. Also, the portions don't really seem to match the price point. It all seems a bit much for the amount of food we got. I have no complaints about the taste of the food itself. It's all really good. The sticky toffee pudding is probably the best desert I've had in a while. I just wish there was more of it. Overall, okay. read more

I've been coming here since the late nineties. I wanted something different for Lent. Fish and Chips I have had nearly every item in the menu, over the years. I miss the Santa Ana location. I love the atmosphere and the people. My favorite server will ALWAYS be Rusty (Miss Susan. My favorite used to be the Fisherman's Platter or the Full English Breakfast with blood sausage! Delish. I can't eat as much, nowadays, so I'm fully devoted to the Bacon Sarnie. I add tomato and fried egg (by Rusty's suggestion) and it is DEVINE. Also, if you want fish and chips, treat yourself to the haddock. Highly recommend! At Christmas, it's decorated in a Festive manner. This is my "go to" spot when I'm hungry and can't decide on anything. I am a FOREVER loyal customer read more

0 stars for the rude, unwelcoming service from Carrie. I've been here many times in the past 10 years for dine-in and takeout and wish I had reviewed before, because it would have been 5 stars. The food is delicious and I love the cozy feel and detailed theme of the entire restaurant. I arrived before my friend and asked if we could be seated in the dining room. Carrie hesitated and tried to talk me into the bar area. She said the dining room is usually for large parties. That is NOT true. I've been there with just my husband many times, as well as a small group (4). ALWAYS in the dining room, not the bar. She reluctantly seated me in the dining room and there were 2 booths that had only 2 people!!j Throughout our dinner, she commented "You guys are still here?!" "You guys have been here forever!" It was NOT busy or full and not near closing time. There were no "large parties". After I left for a few minutes, my friend told me that Carrie commented AGAIN about how long we were there (we had appetizers, dinner, dessert and tea!) And said it was slow that night but if it was busy as it normally is, she "would have had to kick us out"!!!! And she "just wanted us to know that". Also, the people who were already there when I got seated were "still there" the whole time we were!! I wonder if she said anything to them?? This was my friend's first visit to The Olde Ship. She loved the food and ambiance but said the service ruined it for her. read more

The atmosphere and employees at The Olde Ship really makes your time a unique experience! Everyone appeared genuinely happy to be there, and they even had live music. There is a large selection of British food and different beers to enjoy. We had the pleasure of try their clam chowder, meat pies, and fish and chips. The roux formula is nice and thick when it came to their gravy and clam chowder. Their meat pies (chicken and stake ale) were quite delicious and I might have even felt a little healthy eating their carrots and peas sides. Having no experience with authentic British fish and chips, I did feel that the fish and chips lacked a bit of seasoning and crunchy texture. Overall, we had a fun time and look forward to stopping by again. The menu has incredible range, so there's always something new to try. read more

Fantastic little pub in Fullerton. There's a quiet side for dining and a bar. If you wanna be a little rowdy and in the summer and spring and fall, they're seating outside like a proper beer garden. A neighborhood pub that one might find in Milton Keynes - not ancient, but quality. Appropriate decor, but not too kitschy. The beer is fresh and poured at the right temp and served in the right glass. They have all the good English, Scottish, and Irish beers. A deep selection of scotch at the bar. The food is great. Fresh and yummy. I will say that the Scotch eggs used to be yummier they are still good but they have been surpassed by the ones at The Olde King's Head in Santa Monica (worth a visit as well). The bar at the Olde ship is clean. The bathrooms are ship shape. Staff generous and friendly. Parking is crap, but that is the nature of Harbor Ave. read more

Ahoy Mateys! It's been 15 voyages 'round the sun since I last dropped anchor at The Olde Ship, and blow me down--it's still as I remembered it! The crew was swift 'n steady--our deckhand Chris kept the grog and grub comin' faster than a cannonball on a Saturday noon tide. The vittles arrived steamin' hot, a fine feast fit for any buccaneer. But the real booty o' the meal? The soup o' the day--clam chowder, creamy as a calm sea and stuffed with treasures from Davy Jones' locker. And to end the voyage, I plundered a dish o' toffee pudding so sweet it could make even the saltiest sea dog weep tears o' joy. Inside the galley be a sight to behold, decked out with trinkets 'n maritime charm. And outside? By thunder--they've got a mighty double-decker vessel parked right in the lot, a land-sailing beauty to set any sailor smilin'. Mark me words, this be a tavern that can truly shiver the timbers of a hungry crew. A fine port o' call fer any hearty soul seekin' chow worthy o' a captain! read more

Was craving for fish & chips so we went here since we're in the neighborhood. Great place & great pub to hangout they have the bar side, the dinning side and the back outdoor yard. Parking can be in-front or the back of the place. We parked in the back and entered through the which is small but cozy and everyone is enjoying and chatting away. The whole place filled with either England's pubs, places or painting pictures or artifacts that just homey vibe. Service is fantastic, warm and very friendly. Menu is very English so we got seafoods platter, claim chowder, crab cakes, and fish pie plus toffee pudding for dessert. For me, it's a hit and missed..we all know that English foods is bland and tast-less and I'm Asian so seasoning is a must. But been and lived in England before so I understood & appreciated their fine comfort foods and I do missed it here and there and tonight was one of them. Claim chowder was great, rich, creamy and packed with great ingredients. Crab cakes were a missed, tasteless (even salt added) and were not tightly packed - great chips thought. Seafood platter was good, still needs alot of salt for favor. The fish pie was great, very healthy and well cooked. Would be better if the top burned abit more for crust...carrots & peas are perfectly boiled. And the toffee pudding was a hit, less sweet than I remembered but that is perfectly fine with me. Just perfectly ended the meal well. Overall it was good place for some English comfort foods and that cozy warm feeling overall. read more

We love the pissy bossy little blondie bartender Service today at 2:30 -4:51 pm was horrid & Carrie our server - who said she was training another server - finally gave us a little table at 3:30 and there were seriously minimal customers at the pub restaurant ! We finally got served around 4, food was great, we asked another guy for sticky toffee pudding and at 4:40 we just asked for the bill without the pudding. Carrie got a bit pissy and said "oh it's Christmas!"
