About Salutation
Ceramic tile-fronted pub with original features, a classic British menu and a secluded rear garden.
First licensed in 1727, when it was a coaching inn, the present Fuller's pub, designed by A P Killick and grade II listed, dates from 1910. The pub's frontage is a rare complete survival in London of the use of lustrous faience tiling.
Double entrance doors, with stained glass panels in Art Nouveau style and brass plates, lead to an interior substantially altered over the years but still retaining many of its original features. There is a fine fireplace with a mirrored mantelpiece and a large ceiling lantern. A modern conservatory at the rear leads to a substantial enclosed patio. A previous landlord won many Fuller's awards for his garden, so much the so that the late Queen Mother, as Patron of the London Garden Society, visited the pub in 1989 to inspect the floral display, the customary photograph of her pulling a pint behind the bar capturing the occasion.
Today's decorative style has resulted in attractive stripped pine floor boards, half-height wood panelling over-painted green and grey and the upper parts of the walls decorated with old educational posters. A mixture of tables and comfortable chairs and plenty of open space in front of the bar contrive to encourage both diners and drinkers.
Fuller's core London Pride and ESB are supplemented by at least one, but sometimes two, other ales from the Fuller's range or elsewhere. The food offering is Thai.

A great blend of an old inn with a thai restaurant. Very spacious and suitable for bigger events. A nice garden. Highly recommended!

Really nice authentic Thai Restaurant, restaurant hidden within a pub. Interesting feel about it, walking into a pub and seeing people eating Thai food. Really spacious with big garden space at the rear. Drinks have to be ordered at the bar separately and food ordered at the table. Quick service and food turnaround was pretty good. Really tasty food and big portions. Team was really kind and helpful.

Pleasantly surprised by the size of the walled garden at the back of this old traditional pub. The Thai restaurant set within the pub provides an excellent menu and very tasty quality food at very reasonable prices.
