🐟✨ Fresh from the specials board at The Ship Inn…

Our latest feature dish is a celebration of beautiful Australian barramundi and the fresh local produce we’re proud to serve every day.

Pan fried and oven finished barramundi, resting on a creamy green pea consommé with roasted Dutch potatoes, crisp green beans and fresh baby sorrel. Light, vibrant and packed with flavour from the first bite to the last.

Perfect with a crisp glass of white wine on the veranda, a long lunch with friends or a relaxed dinner in the heart of South Bank.

This special is available for a limited time only, so don’t leave it too long. 🍽️

A proper steak dinner without the food coma 🥩🍷

The 150g rump at The Ship Inn is the sweet spot.

Big enough to satisfy, light enough to still start with an entree… and if you’re doing it properly, make it the pan fried Yamba tiger prawns first. Straight from the Northern Rivers, cooked in a rich garlic bisque with a little kick of spice. One of the best starters going around.

Then roll straight into the rump steak served with roasted root vegetables, creamy mash and pepper gravy. Quality Queensland beef sourced through Boonara Station in the Scenic Rim as part of The Ship Inn’s paddock to plate philosophy, led by Executive Chef Stefano and the crew.

This is Brisbane pub dining done right.
Good produce.
Good wine.
Good company.
No rush.

Perfect for long lunches, date nights, after work reds, or settling into an afternoon at South Bank without walking out absolutely defeated afterwards.

Come grab a riverside table and see why locals keep coming back.

Big flavours, local produce, Brisbane sunshine. 🍤☀️

Our pan fried Yamba tiger prawns are sourced straight from the Northern Rivers trawlers of NSW, finished in a rich garlic bisque with a hint of spice and served over a fresh Thai style salad. One of Executive Chef Stefano’s absolute crowd favourites for good reason.

Best enjoyed alfresco at The Ship Inn in the heart of South Bank with a crisp Pike’s Traditionale Riesling in hand. Fresh, ethical, local and bloody delicious.
