Listing notesThe Salutation is a family-run, award-winning real-ale pub at 14 South Parade in Doncaster, one of the town's oldest former coaching inns. It serves up to seven hand-pulled ales on continual rotation alongside a pub menu of burgers, chips and steak pie plus home-cooked Thai food in its upstairs restaurant. Live music is a regular fixture — typically a singer or band well worth watching — shown off both indoors and across a heated, covered outdoor area with its own bar and screens for live sport. A characterful, dog-friendly grassroots venue for Doncaster covers acts and solo performers.
