What DeniseC dislikes about The Salutation:
I was disappointed that fish and chips were not available, especially on national fish and chips day! The wine was pricey, with prices similar to those in London. However, the staff were friendly and pleasant. View all feedback.

I initially asked if there was take aways to which she said yes. Only for her to charge me full price without the peas or condiment for the chicken and chips. For anyone wanting to get take aways, they don’t have even a bag for it or do they have the plastic for condiments. Avoid if you don’t want to dine in

Arrived late at the Salutation. We were hoping to get a meal before a theatre visit but hadn't booked. Wilson who greeted us was really apologetic and honest that he had already got 45 minutes worth of orders ahead of us so there wouldn't be time for us to have a meal. We settled for a coffee and a bag of crisps. Wilson later brought us over a bar of chocolate each as an apology. How kind. I have to say the food looked lovely and the atmosphere excellent. We'll book next time!! Thank you.

The Salutation in the hiden jewel of Ipswich. From the outside you could easily walk by and not give a second look. Trust me when I say, you must pop inside this pub. The landlord is a chap named Wilson. He adds humour and a caring attitude to his customers, which he shows in abundance. I originate from the east end of London, Wilson, with his charm and caring attitude would fit in perfectly. The chef is an absolute diamond of a chef. She is like everyone's mum, the food is cooked from fresh, and it tastes amazing. The toilets are cleaned to a very high standard, in fact the pub itself is so welcoming and that's thanks to Wilson. Everyone that's looking for somewhere to eat and drink, visit Wilson, landlord of The Salutation pub.... Thankbyou Wilson. Have downloaded that playlist..... xxxx Gerry and Gilda

This place is a disgrace. The service food and atmosphere are below par. I will never be returning.

The restaurant received mixed reviews with some diners disappointed by limited menu options, lack of availability of dishes, and overpricing for portion size. However, others praised the friendly staff, good quality of food, and pleasant atmosphere. Overall, the pub offers traditional pub fare at reasonable prices with some standout dishes, making it a solid choice for pre-theatre dining or a casual meal. While there were some areas for improvement, such as updating the menu and ensuring availability of dishes, many diners still found the experience enjoyable and indicated a willingness to return.

This place was a really nice find, a stone's throw away from the Ipswich Regent theatre. Staff friendly and efficient. They serve food all day what we had was delicious the spicy chicken burger in particular! There is a small terrace out the back which we really liked. Will definitely go back if we find ourselves in this area again.

This place has been refurbished well, lots of people at 6pm, managed to grab the last table, so not sure if they take reservations as I had tried to book via email. Staff friendly and welcoming. Food was hot (given amount of orders going through the kitchen) tasty and filling and a perfect start to the evening with the show at the Regent to follow.

The restaurant did not receive our reservation through Open Table, but they still managed to seat us and we had a delightful meal.
