The Ship Talbot Court is a historic Nicholson’s pub at 11 Talbot Court in the City of London. Tucked just off the busier streets near Monument, the seventeenth century setting retains dark wood character, with a courtyard outside and an upstairs dining room for meals and group bookings.
British pub food is the focus, led by hearty pies served with mash, seasonal vegetables and gravy. The wider menu covers burgers, fish and chips, sausages, macaroni cheese, small plates and bar snacks, giving customers choices for both a quick working lunch and a fuller evening meal.
Vegetarian and vegan dishes sit alongside the meat and fish classics, including vegetable based pies and other plant focused pub favourites. Desserts such as sticky toffee pudding, fruit crumble and chocolate brownie provide a familiar finish for diners who want more than a single course.
Cask ale is a particular strength, supported by craft beer, whisky, gin and wine selected for the traditional pub setting. Guests with allergies or dietary requirements should use the current allergen information and speak with staff because the menu descriptions do not list every ingredient.
