About

IT’S WHERE YOU GO TO ESCAPE.
IT’S HAPPY HOUR, 7 DAYS A WEEK.
IT’S “CERRITOS’ BEST KEPT SECRET.”
IT’S “THE SHIP”
WE ARE SHIPMATES.

FOR OVER 40 YEARS, SHIPMATES HAS BEEN TUCKED AWAY ON THE CORNER OF SOUTH AND GRIDLEY IN CERRITOS. NOW DESPITE THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE SHIPMATES OF YESTERDAY AND THE SHIPMATES OF TODAY, THERE IS ONE MAJOR SIMILARITY: TRADITION. THE TRADITION OF PROVIDING OUR PATRONS WITH A SECOND HOME TO ENJOY FANTASTIC FOOD, BEVERAGES, AND ENTERTAINMENT.

IN 1971, THIS PLACE WAS BEST KNOWN FOR IT’S SEAFOOD, STEAK, AND IT’S TEQUILA SUNRISE. TODAY, WE ARE MOST FAMOUS FOR OUR NACHOS, TACOS, FISH n CHIPS AND OUR 35 WORLD RENOWNED BEERS ON TAP. SHIPMATES SPECIALIZES IN AMERICAN CRAFT BEERS FROM STONE IPA TO ALLAGASH WHITE. WE HAVE IMPORTED BEERS TOO, FROM DELIRIUM TREMENS TO STELLA ARTOIS.

AT SHIPMATES IT’S NOT ONLY OUR UNMATCHED BEER SELECTION THAT HAS PEOPLE TALKING. WE ALSO TAKE PRIDE IN PRESENTING PATRONS WITH A MULTI-CULTURAL DINING EXPERIENCE OR AS WE LIKE TO PHRASE IT…WORLD-WIDE BEER MEETS WORLD-WIDE FOOD. OUR MENU NOT ONLY INCLUDES TRADITIONAL ENTREES SUCH AS THE PHILLY CHEESE STEAK AND BACKYARD BBQ BURGER BUT IT ALSO INCLUDES DISHES SUCH AS A KOREAN-BBQ, FILIPINO LUMPIA, CHICKEN FRIED RICE, AND CARNE ASADA BURRITO. HOW CAN IT GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS? WELL IT DOES. EVERY DAY FROM 2-7PM IS HAPPY HOUR!
DO YOU LIKE GREAT-TASTING FOOD AND BEER? ARE YOU A SPORTS FAN? IF YOU ANSWERED YES TO THESE TWO QUESTIONS AND YOU HAVEN’T EXPERIENCED SHIPMATES YET, START THE CAR. WE HAVE HD TVS THAT SHOW ALL OF YOUR FAVORITE SPORTS TEAMS. SHIPMATES HAS THE MLB AND NFL PACKAGES AND WE ARE THE ONLY INTIMATE PLACE WHERE YOU WANT TO WATCH YOUR LAKERS IN THE PLAYOFFS. HOW ABOUT OUR KINGS! WE ARE KNOWN FOR PROVIDING THE “NIGHT-LIFE” IN CERRITOS. AS THEY SAY, THE “NIGHT LIFE” IS THE “RIGHT-LIFE” AND WHAT BETTER PLACE TO SPEND YOUR NIGHT,THAN HERE.
FEEL LIKE GETTING AWAY? UNWHINING WHILE WATCHING YOUR FAVORITE TEAM? EXPERIENCE OUR HOSPITALITY.
THIS IS YOUR SECOND HOME. THIS IS SHIPMATES IN CERRITOS.

AMERICAN WILD ALE

Sometimes Belgian influenced; "wild" yeast or bacteria. This introduction may occur from oak barrels that have been previously inoculated, pitched into the beer, or gained from various "sour mash" techniques. Regardless, these little creatures often leave a funky calling card that can be quite strange, interesting, pleasing to many, but also often deemed as undesirable by many.
