Ye Olde Salutation Inn — Restaurant in Nottingham

How you idiots got hold of the place I'll never know, but you won't last long (although in a world where Trump is president, who the hell knows anymore? Up is sideways and purple is orange these days). Leicester won the premiership, so I've clearly been moved to the 'idiot dimension' as punishment for my crimes against insanity.

You make a mockery of a once fine pub and my wondering where everyone was became very clear, very quickly. Your staff were embarrassed for you, which says it all. I eagerly await your inevitable moving on, so you can go mess up a less important business, and hopefully we'll get back to something like. However, in these times, sensible rules don't appear to apply anymore, so, I also look forward to the great spaghetti monster in the sky, gracing us with his mighty meatball majesty and crowning your 1000 year anniversary.

A more inept pair of simpletons I don't think I've ever seen try and run an easily profitable business with a good reputation. You are clearly drowning. We will be around long after you have moved on and it is my hope that is sooner rather than later before you do any more damage. Indicative of the times we live in I guess.

I was shocked, I have to say, but in the cold light of day, I have moved on and look forward to returning to this once fine venue if/when someone with a degree of competence ever takes up the reigns again. It is my hope that you read these words, come to your senses and do the decent thing sooner rather than later, however, I fear the thickness of your self delusion is too larger barrier for my words to hurdle.

If you're looking for anything of the old Sal, it's there if you look hard enough, still some nice folk about but more than likely, if you're struggling with coming to terms with the world we seem to live in now, this'll be another nail in the coffin. Steer clear, buy cheap vodka, go home and enjoy the...

First time visiting after hearing how the place is one of the vintage Nottingham pubs, etc, was having a lovely time until a member of the bar staff (relatively new apparently, according to people I met there) first threatened and then attempted to assault someone in my group. Multiple patrons had to intervene and break the fight up (the bar team member was 100% at fault and it seemed like his girlfriend had been antagonising him all night in an attempt to get him to fight the person in my group) before security intervened, not before broken glasses were sent flying and several patrons were knocked over.

Absolutely the worst incident of staff behaviour I have ever seen at any Nottingham venue and whoever hired the gentleman in question should be ashamed of themselves. Unfortunately despite being a thoroughly lovely pub with reasonably priced drinks and a great atmosphere I simply cannot recommend in any way after seeing a member of staff (once again, bar staff, not a bouncer) attempt to...

Passed this old pub with my friend. We had heard this was the oldest pub in Notts. We went in and ordered a drink. The landlord Jason was in the pub and started chatting with us. He was a font of knowledge in relation to the history of Nottingham and the Salutation. We listened to the story's and facts he was conveying to us. We couldn't believe that Jason was taking so much of his own time to tell us the history of Nottingham and the Salutation. Jason told us about the pub and the different nights they hold in relation to live music. As we were interested with the history Jason off his own back took us down to look at the caves beneath the pub and gave us a history lesson on the way. We are so grateful to the time you took to show us some history. I thoroughly recommend the Salutation to visit on any trip around Nottingham. This place is full if history and we...
