SALUT! · ESSEX ROAD · ISLINGTON
Wine & Cocktails in Islington
A favourite cocktail, a new wine to discover, or a glass shared with friends. At Salut, drinks are part of the welcome.
Join us on Essex Road for classic cocktails, wines chosen through smaller suppliers, and recommendations from a team who knows the list.

Just joining us
for a drink?
You’re welcome to drop in for a glass of wine or a cocktail during our opening hours, subject to a table being available. There’s no need to order food.
Drinks-only visits are walk-in only. Friday and Saturday evenings are usually reserved for dining, although we may be able to welcome you for a drink if a table is free.
A GLASS, A BOTTLE, A LITTLE GUIDANCE
Find your next
favourite wine
We work with several smaller wine suppliers to bring together a varied list, including some organic wines and bottles you might not have tried before.
Everyone on the team has their favourites, and we’ve tasted the wines we serve. Tell us what you usually enjoy, what you’re eating, or simply what you feel like drinking, and we’ll help you choose.
Not sure which wine to choose? If you’d like a small taste of one of our house wines before deciding, just ask.

COCKTAILS AT SALUT
A soft spot
for the classics
We love a Negroni. There’s also plenty of affection here for a gin dirty martini and a good margarita.
Our cocktail menu brings together familiar favourites and drinks worth getting to know. If you’re unsure what to choose, tell us the spirits and flavours you enjoy. We’ll help you find something that suits your taste.

ALCOHOL-FREE
Something without
the alcohol
Our alcohol-free selection includes a Negroni, a spritz, sparkling wine and beer.
For private celebrations and larger bookings, we’re also happy to discuss bringing in something particular for your guests. Let us know what you have in mind when planning your event.
MADE FOR YOUR OCCASION
Cocktails with
a personal touch
Planning a celebration at Salut? We can create a drinks menu around you and your guests.
Tell us the spirits, flavours and cocktails you love. We can source ingredients and put together a personal selection of two to four cocktails, with names chosen for your occasion.
It could be your favourite classics, something created especially for the evening, or a mix of both. Alcohol-free options can be part of the menu too.
This service is available for whole-restaurant hire. We can also arrange bespoke drinks for larger table bookings with at least two weeks’ notice.

Make an evening of it
Start with a cocktail, choose a bottle for the table, and settle in over dinner. Whether it’s a weekday catch-up or a date night, we’d love to welcome you.
Our wine and cocktail selection changes from time to time, so a few bottles or drinks may differ from the online menu when you visit.
