Hello visitor, we hope you enjoy your visit to our humble website.

Born on 2nd September 2005, The Good Ship is a bar, nightclub, music venue and arts centre all rolled into one. Consider us an extension of your front room with a jukebox in. We are first and foremost a music bar and we are actively commited to bringing the best bands to Kilburn and also using the space of The Good Ship as a place for the arts and entertainment. So we have DJs, bands, film afternoons, stand up comedy, designer clothes sales and anthing else interesting/innnovative that we come across or you suggest. Not karaoke though, no no no no no.

We sell a wide range of beers, wines and spirits and must be one of the few places in London that sells real ale after 11pm. We have a 100 cd juke box (including Kate Bush, Nick Cave, Stevie Wonder, Interpol and a load of Nuggets and Rough Trade compilations) and we change it regularly to keep it nice and fresh. Until the coin mechanism is fixed (probably never) it is also free. We have a massive screen and a comfortable area to watch it from so we host sport and anything else our customers may want.

Opening hours: Mon - Thurs till 2am Fri - Sat till 4am. Sun till 2am. During the week we close the doors at 1130 to discourage the local loons from coming in but if you are reasonably normal just knock and we'll let you in.

We say no to alcopops, fruit machines, change on a plate. We say yes to real ales, customers of all ages and enjoying a friendly, non pretentious atmosphere.

Looking to host a private party?? We offer private hire of our venue at very reasonable cost and usually completely FREE. We can handle 240 people, DJs bands, screenings and lots more. Plus we have a licence til 4am on Friday and Saturday and 2am on all other days.

We very much welcome customer feedback so let us have your compliments or brickbats to John at 07949 008253 or john@thegoodship.co.uk. A quick reply is promised.
