Amazing place, hands down the best parmos in teesside! The service was fantastic, staff were friendly we asked for a warm table, and they seated us in a nice cosy table next to a fireplace. Took us a while to select what we wanted as the campus parmo map with parmos themed from different countries of the world had an insane amount of options, so there's something for everyone's taste. My partner ordered the dirty southern parmo, which has Jack Daniels sauce and crispy bacon on with purple slaw, said it was the best parmo she has had. She ordered the small which was still a good size and she enjoyed it so much she whmished she had ordered a bigger one. I chose the Kiev parmo, which was chicken Kiev creamy sauce and garlic with herbs, and it was so tasty and really nice. Will definitely be back to try a different parmo next time and would highly rdccomend this place to everyone. They did have a nice menu outside of the parmos aswell offering classic pub foods, smash burgers, and much more.

We try to go out for a meal on a Thursday, and this Thursday, we went to The Ship in Redmarshall. We arrived around 5.30 and we got the last parking space in the car park. There is on road parking too. Once we got in, we were almost instantly guided to a table. The lady said she’d pop over shortly to get our order. We got our drinks after a short wait, and ordered our food after another wait. The food arrived, but my Mrs got the wrong Parmo, she ordered the Greek God, but got the Greek (something else). Now, normally, we would just eat it, but the 2 dishes are very different. My biggest issue is there’s no cheese alternative, I’m dairy intolerant. I realise it’s not ideal going to somewhere famous for Parmo’s but I can’t be alone. Vegan cheese is common and lasts forever. As does a milk alternative for the sauce. My Mrs asked a staff member to swap. It was sorted with minimum fuss, and very apologetic. The food is great, we got “normal” size and to be honest, that’s enough. We added onion rings and 2 purple slaws ( but only got 1) As a critique, I think the staff should write orders down, 2 small mistakes in one order. We paid 66 for a Coke Zero, pint of Larger , 1 portion on onion rings, 1 purple slaws and 2 standard Parmo’s. A 10% tip is already added on, which is fair enough. Would we go again, yes. But not quickly. The Cheese thing would definitely have to be resolved.

It was my first visit to The Ship so I thought I would try the Classic Parmo Platter. It was delicious, but I couldn’t finish it, I probably shouldn’t have ordered a starter but I was able to take it home. It’s a nice surrounding with a friendly atmosphere and attentive staff.

I’m not really one to leave reviews but I’ve got to say me, my son and my friend had our first experience tonight and it was just lovely. The food was 10 out of 10 couldn’t complain. Worth every penny. I work in a pub myself and my son kept saying I need a 2ndjob here so he can eat it everyday lol, I’m not telling our chef. Service was fantastic, I’m not sure if the sparkler in the ice cream comes as standard or just because my son was being a giggle with the staff but it’s made his day, the place was cosey and warm and spotless and we left happy and full and definitely going to recommend and return! Thank you
