The Salisbury Pub is located in the heart of the theater district on St. Martin’s Lane in Coventry Garden not far from Trafalgar Square. It was opened in the late 1800’s and is one of the most beautiful Victorian pubs in London. This historic pub is on the historical national importance pub list due to it’s quality and opulent etched glass mirrors and gorgeous carved bar. This pub is a great place to grab a pint of beer and visit with the locals. It was very crowded and lively when we were there around six in the evening so we grabbed a seat outside and people watched. The bartenders are professional, polite, quick and attentive. Love this place!

Really charming pub especially this festive period, delightfully decorated. Lots of different sections but have to order at the main bar, friendly service and good vibe!

We went here for the atmosphere. It was a bit underwhelming. The food was OK. We had fish and chips. They were cooked fine, the potatoes, not very crisp. We were supposed to get mushy peas, but they seemed to be out so we got whole peas...

Living in London for a year now and visited many different pubs here. However, this one is special. The interior and the range of ales and beers is big. The service provided here is super friendly which is unlikely in other places. The bartender, Simon who works in this pub was very friendly and professional. He helped to choose the best ale according to my preferences and taste. He told me the story of the pub and its founders which I found really fascinating. Overall, great service and nice beers and ales.

As a Londoner, I'm surprised at how good this pub is given its central location. Excellent! Great staff. Wonderful old gin palace interior. Great selection of drinks. Didn't try the food but it all looked top notch

I like this old and fashion pub in the heart of London where you can breath the air of all England. Well furnished with the finest beers, and the right place where you can eat the best fish and cheeps.

Nice pub in Covent Garden serving a good selection of beers wines and spirits. They also serve food. Staff are friendly and welcoming too. The toilets downstairs are awful. You can smell urine as you walk down the stairs, the ladies toilets are very cramped and covered with people writing rubbish on the walls. The toilets definitely are in need of refurbishing

Nestled on the corner of St Martin's Lane and St Martin's Court this famous Old pub is a well preserved relic of Victorian life, packed full of history. Call in for a beer! The mahogany bar and cut glass windows and panels are magnificent. What makes any venue is the people and the staff here are terrific; so kind, so helpful. We had a Festive buffet lunch for 7 in The Whisky Room. The food was good and there was a wonderful atmosphere in the whole place. Not so easy for wheelchairs everywhere in the pub but possible. The loos are in the basement via step narrow stairs. The whole place is fun and reasonably priced for theatreland. Thank you 'staff of The Salisbury' we had a great time.

Walked in here off chance. And had a sirloin steak dinner. Good pricing for west end, and friendly service on the bar and when served. Steak overcooked for what I ordered, but as was limited in time I didn't complain. The gravy was very tasty, as were the chips. Nice Alcohol free cider available, and served with a good glass of ice . Will be back.

Only for a Drink 🍸 Staff were nice, Good Atmosphere and lots of People all Chatting...

Great pub, a real gem. Stunningly fabulous interior, you can imagine all the famous hell raisers partying from the past. Staff really friendly and polite. Great selection of food and drink. Highly recommended

There are many pubs in the centre of London. This is one of the best. Fabulous history, stunning atmosphere, decor, furniture and service. The food and beer are superb too

The place is nice but honestly I won't go there a second time. If you only want drinks there's no service. If you order food, they'll bring it to your table but you have to go to the cashier to order and take your drinks to your table on your own. I had fish and chips and I found it good at the moment but in the night I was feeling my stomach was upset and it was because of the fish. I don't know if it depends on old oil or what else. The waiters are very kind. The restroom is one of the worse I've ever seen. Very dirty. It's unacceptable that people using washroom leave it dirty, but it's even more unacceptable that no one from the staff is going to check that everything is decent.

Cool Viktorian style pub in covent garden. Interior nicely classic and authentic. Crowd more on tourists and usual party crews side. No place to spend an evening but definitely a good stopover for a pub crawl.

Great pub right in the middle of the theatre district and Leicester Square. Friendly staff and great drink offering. Old school English pub, well worth a stop!

Fantastic place to eat and have a pint. Only thing is, you have to order at the bar, which is not handy when travelling alone. (First find a table, then order at the bar, hoping your table's still there when you get back). Food & atmosphere was great!

Perfectly average English pub in a touristy area of town. They tried to be a bit fancy with the roasted lemon, pea shoots, and flavoured tartar but fish itself was pretty tasteless and I should have known they would have those massive beefy chips that I dislike. They're dry and powdery. Peas were undercooked by miles, which is a nice change from overcooked and mushy but still a bit confused by how difficult Brits seem to find it to cook peas. They're either hard or mushy. Large portion of fish cooked nicely. Small portion of chips. Had to wait a while for vinegar and ketchup. Bit pricey but that's the area. Mac and cheese was not good. You may as well just order a mug of hot cheese sauce. Not much macaroni at all. No nice crust on top. Just a bowl of oily melted cheese. It had a slightly vintage cheese flavour but was mostly bland and a little too much like pre-made Velveeta. Toilets were nasty. I entered as a staff member was leaving and found only 1 of 3 stalls usable. The others were full of unflushed excrement or just trash. One sink was plugged and looked backed up with yellow gunk. I know it may not be the barmaid's job to clean toilets but someone should be. Went back later, still just as gross so she obviously didn't tell whomever's job it is. The least she could have done down there is flush and tidy a little bit. Absolutely what you should expect from any English pub. It won't blow your mind, but it's fine.

Really tasty fish & chips and delicious pint of Guinness with kind service. Little bit noisy pub.

Nice atmosphere just don't eat. Seasoned chips with no seasoning (not even salt) and apparently seasonal greens is a bowl of cabbage refer attached!!!). Burger was basic with no frills. In saying that it was a good atmosphere if you want a pint.

Amazing pub,the staff is very friendly, the food was great and the service very good.

I enjoyed such a delightful and charming atmosphere in spite of the crowed place and especially thanks to the smiling and welcoming staff. A special mention to Alice, an Italian girl who successfully made her best for our unforgettable stay at the pub. Thanks Alice 👏👏👏

A top pub in central London, love It 👏❤️

Lovely pub with a traditional etched glass interior. Always packed to the gunnels but the staff are very efficient. Grab a spot in the whisky room (snug) and sink a few.

Great pub in an excellent location x service was fast considering how packed the bar was. And fantastic prices for a lovely Pinot. The girlies enjoyed the excess of mirrors, and the chips were thick and perfectly salted. It was bright but not in an overpowering way and made everything cheery.

Very tasty food, good beer. But finding a free table is about luck.

Such a shame, as it's a wonderful London pub let down big time by the disgusting toilets... The smell from the toilets reached by the end of the evening right through the pub! This isn't a one off, as visited before. I had hoped the toilets had improved but if anything it was worse. What must our visitors from abroad think!!!!!

I'm baffled by our New Year's Eve experience at this London pub. We were a group of five serious professionals in our 30s, meeting for our first drink of the night at 23:40. Upon arrival, the bouncer claimed the pub was full, despite it appearing half-empty through the windows. He initially requested a bribe for entry, which we refused. After some discussion, he let us in. The bar staff hurried our order, explaining that they pause service from 23:50 to 00:10 for New Year celebrations, which was reasonable. We ordered our drinks, leaving a £5 tip. Later, after moving to a spacious area of the bar, one of our friends left a full glass of orange juice on the counter to use the restroom. Returning, she found it gone. When we asked an Italian bartender about it, she denied removing it, which could be true, but they were more bartenders around. Despite understanding her Italian swearing due to my time living in Sicily, she eventually made a new orange juice. Surprisingly, she then insisted on charging £3.50 for the replacement. A fellow customer, having witnessed the situation, kindly offered to pay for the juice with his order. However, this incident left a lasting impression of the staff's conduct. To the Italian bartender: I've worked in hospitality for many years and understand the challenges, with commitment I was able to move from washing dishes to run a restaurant in 3 years and some years after I was able to leave that industry. We all have dreams and goals, often involving hard work on holidays away from loved ones. I hope you find fulfillment in your career, just as I am progressing towards mine. Just keep in mind that behaviour is not going to help you in any way. Happy New Year

Ordered 2 Gin and tonics. One double, one single and watched the bar tender short measure both drinks, and by a lot. I presume he thought I could see, but I could. The double tasted like a very weak single. Pub was packed and I couldn’t be bothered making a scene but I will never frequent the place again.

I've been patronising this establishment for more years than I care to say, more so when I lived in London, but I return every time I visit the capital. It remains one of my favourite places for nostalgic reasons as well as the fact that it still is very welcoming, accommodating and NOW serves an excellent menu. 👏 👏 👏

Fabulous....I run in there today to get out of the rain while I was out Christmas shopping in the Westend...only had a couple of pints great atmosphere and everyone look like they were enjoying self's and in the spirit

Lovely little pub, with great decor and a cool bar that was lower than most pubs. Not sure why I liked that but I did. (Sorry for previous rating, I don't recall doing so, think I must've fat fingered my phone)

Met up with friends on a busy Friday lunchtime. Good selection on the menu, the food was served hot and was tasty. Lovely atmosphere and efficient, helpful staff. Very handy for Trafalgar Square or the National Gallery.

Just stopped for a quick drink and something to eat as was passing. Sat outside, quick service and food great, we had the shared platter

I have been a few times now and Joel is always so happy to accommodate. He really brings out the fun there. There is also a great selection of beers and the food is delicious.

Visited at Christmas, really lovely atmospheric pub. Didn't stay for a meal but the menu looked great.

Kiva pubi kokemus. Ruuat ja juomat tilataan tiskiltä. Hyvä ja nopea palvelu.

The decor and atmosphere of the bar were very nice. We enjoyed sitting there, but unfortunately, the fish and chips was not good. The exterior was too greasy and there was hardly any fish inside. I felt like I had just eaten a greasy coating and some chips for £17.

We had a quick stop before we were heading home, we meant to stop for one drink, but our server Kay was such a legend! My partner wanted shot of tequila and he ordered two, including me, but at first I changed it to shot of jager, luckily we had Kay there, he offered us coffee tequila, then brought us 4 different bottles to choose from and finally we went for his suggestion. It was legendary shot! We had two more hahaha what a service! Amazing suggestions, definitely gonna come back! Also, thanks to Kay, he completely change my view at tequila shots!

Had a Sunday roast for lunch here, and it was really nice

My friend wanted to walk through memory lane, saying this was a favourite hangout for the gay men before and after attending theatre. The ambience is absolutely vintage with etched glass windows and gorgeous chandeliers. The bar is riddled with a good selection of beers on tap. The food menu sounds lovely although we haven't tried them. Maybe next time.

Obviously living in 21st century this pub hangs on to traditional London. Mirrors & glass everywhere. Brilliant atmosphere, huge selection of Whisky. Would have loved to spend longer! Update January 22. Still love this place. Full of atmosphere, great service and a lovely evening in The Whisky Room!

The pub looks wonderful. It gives a real Victorian experience. Richard was such a cheery charming bartender! It was fun and a really great experience. Pop in on your way around Leicester Square!

Nice traditional pub. Friendly and helpful bar staff. We sat outside and there was an overhead heater. Really reasonable prices and excellent selection of drinks. We always visit when we are in the area. Definitely recommend it.

An amazing pub I would visit it again when I go to London I tried fish and chips and it’s very delicious 🤤

Great Classic boozer, lovely selection of brews, good vibes. A suspicious amount of smiley, drop dead gorgeous ladies, they seem very friendly! Hold on, it seems they may be ladies 'of the night'. Great all round!

Edwardian era pub in Covent Garden. Nice ambiance, good beer selection on tap. Pub food menu. Had the fish and chips. Large piece of fish excellent chips. Recommended.

Beautiful old pub with an interesting history, ordered via the app and food and drinks arrived quickly even though the pub was quite full. Standard pub food with a good selection of sharing options. Clean toilets.

This place is a splendid looking Greene King pub in the heart of London's theatre land. It's spacious and well-lit to the point of being arguably too bright, and it very much charges tourist prices - an ale should not cost over six pounds. I have not tried the food.
