Experience Salisbury after dark!
Salisbury has a real tradition of hospitality, which makes it a great location for a night out.
What better time to try our delectable venues than during Taste Salisbury, the city's ten day food and drink festival.
If you want to head to a pub, Salisbury has a wide variety to suit all tastes, whether it’s a traditional public house that makes the most of the 15th century architecture like the Wig & Quill or a more modern alternative that offers a quirky décor like The Old Ale and Coffee House.
During the summer (especially on a long August bank holiday weekend!) there’s nothing better than to spend a leisurely evening with friends in one of the many pubs with a beer garden – The Bishops Mill and George and Dragon are two options where you can sit back and relax by the river. Or immerse yourself in the hustle and bustle of the historic Market Place by taking a seat outside The Market Inn or The Ox Row Inn.

If you want a great atmosphere, good food and a brilliant selection of beer, try Craft Bar at The Salisbury Arms.
