The Ship

A gem in the sea of warehouses, The Ship is a quirky, maritime-themed cocktail bar and live music venue hidden in the industrial West Bottoms.

The move: Enter through the secret alleyway door in the back and step into a beautifully restored 1935 wooden ship cabin, where you can sip a classic cocktail while listening to live jazz or soul under a glowing neon anchor.
