The Ship Cafe was a landmark of Venice, California, United States, from 1903 to 1946. Built along the Venice Pier over the water off Windward Avenue, the restaurant and event space was known for its sumptuous food and prestigious clientele. The ship was a novelty building, set on concrete pilings, and not actually a sea-worthy vessel.
