Pubs & Inns in Salisbury

Salisbury is blessed with many pubs and inns within the city centre. Some of our pubs and inns date back to the 14th century, many still retain their historic charm and several are within listed buildings.

Hear tales of Salisbury’s past at one of our pubs

Hear tales of Salisbury’s past on a visit to one of our pubs or inns and get to know some of our local residents, perhaps even one of our friendly resident ghosts! There is even a pub, The Haunch of Venison, which is famed for its mummified hand which sits in part of the wall. The hand is believed to have been from a local card cheat!

Central pubs and those with outdoor seating

There are several pubs and restaurants around Salisbury’s Market Place including the Market Inn, the Ox Row Inn and also around the old medieval chequers (squares) that form the historic city centre.

Enjoy outdoor seating in some of the pubs around the Market Place and beer gardens in some of the pubs on New Street, the Old Ale and Coffee House on Crane Street and Castle Street as well as those that are slightly further out of the city centre.

Real ales and local brews

If you are after local ales then look out for local brews from Downton Brewery, Wadworth (based in Devizes), Stonehenge Ales and the Hop Back Brewery and many of our pubs will also serve your more mainstream beers, lagers and wines.

Enjoy a spot of food

Many of our pubs and inns also serve food at lunch and dinner so you can rest your feet after a busy day’s sightseeing. Why not relax in front of a roaring log fire at The Pheasant or enjoy the sunshine in the outdoor areas of the Ox Row Inn or The Cathedral Hotel? Look out for local specialities, seasonal dishes and special offers on eating out in the city.
