The best restaurants in Salisbury St Martin's and Cathedral Wiltshire South West

Lots of interesting and unusual things to see in this place, lots of random mementoes and furniture pieces from decades gone by. If you grew up in the 70’s or 80’s you’ll recognise quite a few of them. Nice place for a cup of tea or coffee and something to eat too.

Lovely local, made me feel welcome, walked in no issue. Many Thanks.

A small but a fabulous restaurant. A menu with so many choices and at very acceptable prices. Service is excellent and food is a real pleasure. Good atmosphere with good background music. A really good find in Salisbury.

Wow best kabobs Sunday evening went bk again Monday I decided to have a basic burger omg out of this world both meals were the tastiest I've had best in da salisbury

Very friendly little pub, serves traditional pub grub and Sunday roasts that are delicious and very reasonably priced. Pop in, you won't regret it!

The pizza dough is amazing but the filling is scarce. The service is not bad but if you want to sit for a while -- it's not here, here they will come and give you a hint: Are you done eating? Get out, please.

Hopefully her name was actually 'Anna', her energy resonated throught the building and it was a delight to be served by her at the bar. Good enough selection of drinks. Didn't go in for food so couldn't tell you if they even did food. Give Anna all the money shes a diamond ^_^

Why did we leave it so late to come to Hixon?! We had an amazing birthday meal for my partner, the service was great (despite being super busy) and we enjoyed some incredible limitless steak, chips, peppercorn sauce and ceaser salad. Huge thanks to Belle and Jess for being so attentive. All in a lovely setting right in the heart of Salisbury!

A nice looking place - super clean and very well decorated Menu is extensive and ideal for a quick meal or just a hot drink. Only negative is the choice of music! This makes it a difficult place to stay for long if you do not appreciate One Love (original mix). This is club music. Mindless thumping beat and weird sounds sometimes repeated wailing noises. Asked the staff to find different music. Seems not possible. Shame really. That type of music is not to everyone’s taste. If you are the staff and into clubbing it would be fine. But the staff are not the one’s to choose the music!

This will probably turn out to be of my shortest reviews, (for all those that have kindly followed my longer Feature Travel articles posted here on-line over the years), but the 'comparative' brevity of my write-up here is probably in direct relation to the wee size of this fabulous little cafe..! 😊 I first stumbled on the Antelope Cafe many years ago when visiting the Salisbury Antiques Emporium in the centre of this famous & most evocative Wiltshire City and was really taken by the 'quaint gentility' of it, tucked away on the top floor..and was immediately struck by the companionable near-silence as couples, friends & singletons quietly chatted over their coffees or sat happily reading their newspapers or books over their interesting snacks..! Not surprisingly, to my eyes the Antelope Cafe has all the wonderful appearances of an old-fashioned reading room..with snacks..and I just loved it..as obviously do the regulars who I have spotted there over the years, all taking a quiet step back from the hubbub of the street-lined cafes & eateries that festoon this wonderful City below us! Here, especially on a freezing January day outside, to venture into the warmth, bag a little table and have a wonderful cuppa or partake of some of the interesting snacks on the specials boards is obviously such a joy..and you'll soon feel miles away from the bustle of daily life! 👍 The owner & her lovely wee band of helpers are just superb..very kind & very attentive and this all adds to the most enjoyable 'old world vibe' of this little top floor haven...and my additional pleasant surprise was just how good the teas are... served, as they are, in wonderful china mugs..and tasing like real tea should do! I don't know if Salisbury's water is different to anybody else's' but I surely know that, normally being a tried & trusted coffee drinker only, I was initially bought a cuppa by a pal many moons ago and have to say that I've never enjoyed a mug of tea as much as I have here at the Antelope..and one day, when time permits, I really must make the time to stay a while longer and try out the smashing wee menu too. With the very obvious loyal clientele I have spotted partaking of lunches or afternoon teas here in that amazing peace & quiet of the top floor, I worried before putting pen to paper, (or fingers to keyboard), in case too much additional publicity might run the risk of potentially spoiling the very welcome ambience for those myriad regulars..of all ages.. by bringing in a wave of new customers... and the little secret here that the many locals keep, will be possibly marred by it becoming another 'fast food coffee outlet' and so potentially spoiling the lovely, rarefied atmosphere..! But on reflection, I now doubt that as this is a very special little place indeed..and judging by the amazing map & pin-board by the door, charting the many welcome international visitors who have happily found their way to this wee top floor cafe and contentedly shared it with the regulars, (and vice-versa), I feel this happy state of affairs will continue for as long as this fabulous little cafe exists..and long may that be! 👍 Thank you Antelope Cafe! 😎

We've eaten here a few times now. The food is amazing. The steaks are out of this world. Service is friendly. Would highly recommend.

Amazing food, great service. Highly recommend

Cracking wee noodle place, highly recommended. Popped in whilst away with work, had some noodle soup, dumplings and ribs. Very tasty, very fresh and great value. Also very quick and friendly service. Will be back when in the area

Walked past Leonardo's La Piazza many times, saying 'we must try there', so we at last went for a quick lunch. This was a weekday so it wasn't too busy. There's a good menu - not just pizzas. We had just a main course each: Canneloni Verde for me and it was excellent. Well made and plenty of a light cheese sauce. Hawaiian Pizza for my wife which was very good and more than she could eat, but they provided a box to take away the uneaten portion. I was a bit disapppointed that there were no options of anchovies, olives or capers - or maybe I just missed them. Had they been an option I'd probably have had a Margarita pizza with the above - but then I'd have missed the Canneloni Verde. Staff friendly and attentive. Comfortable space with 2 levels of seating inside and good outside space under a gazebo looking onto Salisbury Market Square. Worth a visit if you like Italian food.

Would leave a zero if I could. Probably the worst chinese take away we've ever had. Smoked chicken NO CHICKEN. Just batter. Ribs just fatty. Even the chips are so dry, you need sauce or a drink to eat them. Would never come again.
