Welcome to the Shippons Pub and Kitchen, Irby

Welcome to The Shippons, a traditional pub set in the heart of Irby village.

Located halfway between Chester and Liverpool, The Shippons is a pub for all. From our loyal locals to walk-in customers from further afield, we have room for all.

We pride ourselves in offering locally sourced, homecooked food to our customers and offer all your pub classics, plus much more on our unique menu offer. We have a great variety of cask ales, wines, and spirits, which can be enjoyed either inside or out on our courtyard on a warm summer’s day.

So, whether you are popping in for a 3 course meal, a pint with friends or for a dance on our live entertainment nights, we look forward to your visit and will have a pint waiting…
