This place was adorable! We were greeted and seated by the lovely owner. The brunch menu was simple, and there were many drink options! We enjoyed the breakfast scramble with egg, Gruyère, mushrooms, red pepper and bacon, and also the creamed corn beef. Each entree was served with a small bowl of fruit and a small salad. The food was absolutely delicious, with high quality ingredients and lots of flavor! The service was attentive but not over bearing. Would absolutely recommend and would return! read more

Drinks are priced well for what you get, atmosphere and staff are PHENOMENAL. Me and my friend had gabby as our server and she was just fantastic. As someone who works in the service industry, I can judge appropriately at how a place is functioning and servers like Gabby make the place what it is. Lovely experience. read more

The appetizers are great for sharing especially with a cocktail. The service was great. It was a fun place for a girls night out.

Delicious and well made Paloma's. The upstairs dining area can get a bit cramped but overall a good date spot.

Very disappointing, we were excited to give this place a try. I haven't met a more unfriendly bartender. We decided to not stay after feeling as though we were inconveniencing her. read more

I chose to come here for my birthday dinner after learning about it last Fall in a women's group I am in. We drove in dark, cold rain from Manhattan to enjoy a nice meal here. We had a table waiting for us! I ordered a bellini and Eric R. started with a cocktail before getting a local beer to try. We shared three plates: the chicken meatballs, the roasted tomato caprese, and the olive tapenade. Everything was delicious. We shared the salted caramel sundae for dessert. This place was hopping for a Wednesday night! The ambiance is very nice and the service was great. I would love to come back to try other cocktails and tapas. read more

Great food, good service in an appealing environment. Best tasting eggs in a long time.

First of all . . . it is the staff here that enhance everything about this charming place! They are exceptional! And then there's the unique cocktails! Oh, and the food! We loved the stuffed mushrooms and the free spicey little pretzels. Water served in a wine bottle,of course! We began our late evening upstairs with charming Hannah, the sommelier. My dirty martini, though off the menu, was perfection. Hubs had the "Penicillin" which I'm sure could cure cancer! Fortunately, they had room for us in the basement speakeasy, "The Principal's Office," where I was treated to an 1890's original gin martini made with the owner's hand-crafted gin. Mild and ever so slightly sweet, it was right up my alley. Hubby had a "Bitter Chocolate Fashioned" which came with a giant square ice cube and was very good. A piano player and singer were just finishing up as we were seated, but I had enjoyed snippets of "Play Misty For Me" and "My Funny Valentine," oldies but goodies well performed. This is a place to relax and enjoy good conversation. No TVs! Make a reservation and enjoy! read more

Amazing place highly recommend. Great ambience inside and nice seating outside when it's good weather. I went every time with a group and we shared the plates we ordered. Fantastic mixed beverage selection. read more

Absolutely delicious food and amazing drinks in a charming atmosphere. I've been twice since moving to Topeka and I'll definitely be here regularly! read more

This is a really cute little lounge. It gets packed so be sure to get there early and make reservations beforehand if you want to go in. Sitting out side on the patio isn't bad but could be a lot better with fans out there. I've been told there is a speakeasy down below called the Principals Office but I didn't get a chance to go check it out because it was reserved that evening for a book club. The service is good inside. Water and pretzels are served. Friendly staff. No complaints really only wish since we were sitting outside in the heat they would have came out and offered more water. The food is actually appetizers only but everything sounded wonderful. We got the goat cheese with fig served with slices of baguette and crackers. That was hard to turn down. Creamy, warm and still making my mouth water. The wine selection is a bit limited for a place that is called a wine lounge. The cocktails are fancy, aesthetically pleasing to the eyes, and the cost will hit you in the pocketbook if you're not paying attention because it's easy to indulge here. It's a great date spot, get together with some friends, or apparently have your book club meet up kind of place. Definitely a place to check out. It's a little hidden treasure in the middle of a charming neighborhood that you'll miss unless you get out and explore the town a bit. read more

Best place to get cocktails in Topeka. Period. We followed Mike from The Wheelbarrel and Salut has become our new favorite. Whether it's visiting Mike in The Principle's Office with his amazing concoctions or just going to the main level of Salut, we greatly appreciate the heart and dedication that this business has for the community. read more

We went to celebrate a birthday and wanted drinks and small bites. There were 6 adults. We were seated extremely close to another 3 top basically in the walkway to the restroom. Beside us was a group of 10-11. They were loud so it made the whole place loud because there are no noise softening surfaces. We waited a long time for our one drink order and we order two shareable appetizer plates. The quality was okay but the size was ridiculously small-especially the charcuterie board. Barely enough for 6 people to have a piece of cheese. Service was fine and friendly but slow. We'll try again sometime to see if it's better. Because we want them to succeed, but not super impressed. read more

Our favorite spot in Topeka. Cocktails are imaginative. Food is small bites (tapas) which are great for ordering a bunch of and sharing. We love the brunch. The hours of operation are thoughtful and consistent. Thank you Katie and Mark! read more

First time in, very neat little place with a good atmosphere. Cocktails were very good but the service was rude at best. We were sat in an area with a little couch and 2 chairs. There was only two of us so two other people were sat in our area a little while later. From then on our service disappeared and all the attention focused on the college age kids that were seated opposite of us. Tip to ownership-I hope you're not banking the future succeed of your business solely in the neighborhood people that obviously get preferential treatment. read more

Great Sunday Brunch. The place has more of a Kansas City vibe. It's a fairly small menu. The last time I had the Creme Brulee French Toast with bacon & fruit. Their craft cocktails are fantastic. The staff is very knowledgeable about the wine and cocktail lists. Before I forget... MAKE A RESERVATION‼ read more

What a lovely ambiance and wine and cocktail bar! We enjoyed the speakeasy and are thoroughly impressed by the cocktail Menu and knowledge of Brett and Mike. We are from Kansas City but can't wait to return. What a gem! read more

Great service and atmosphere! Sat at the bar and sampled several beverages and food. The goat cheese and fig dip as well as the salmon dip were outstanding! We will be back! read more

March 24 2023 *writing this review from the bar ;) No one has mentioned this place to me before and I kinda hope it stays a easy, high quality, admittedly high end establishment. This is my second time here. I have been alone both times and able to find a solo seat at the bar but it really seems like you need a reservation otherwise. I have NOT been to the speakeasy downstairs. But I hear everyone around talking about "downstairs" so it must be great lol. The bar has had lovely, professional bartenders each time. They seem passionate and meticulous. I'm just drinking wine but the other patrons are raving about the signature cocktails. Apple and smoked Gouda tartine is great! I had the bruschetta last visit, it was ok, order something funner :) The in-house pretzels are real good too. read more

Everything was fantastic!!! Atmosphere, drinks and the charcuterie board was wonderful. Highly recommend.

This place is fantastic. It's classy and comfortable. The drinks are great and the food is delicious. I've been a couple times and I'm already planning my next visit. read more

Salut Wine and Cocktail Lounge - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Topeka, Kansas

Nice quiet atmosphere to have a drink. Topeka needs more places like it. Mock-tail menu was just 3 items. Name brand liquors limited. Appetizers were mediocre and service slow. I would love to say I'll be back but not true. read more

Nice venue ambiance made me feel welcoming. Place is clean, drinks are reasonable priced. Will be back.

Great neighborhood spot to see friends and have a well made cocktail. Highly recommend.

We went for our anniversary (49!) and were delighted. Had a cocktail and 'bites' to start, she had raspberry something which she loved and I had Woodford double oaked bourbon neat. The olive tapenade was fabulous and the we had tartines - one with salmon and one with tomato and olive. Both delicious. The chocolate truffles for dessert were excellent. Two complaints: very noisy, and our French pressed coffee was only lukewarm. But we'll be back. Wonderful waitress of course I didn't get her name/ tall dirty blonde and excellent. read more

First time at Salut last evening and will definitely be going back! Service was friendly and very attentive. I had a Peach Bellini, which was delicious! Also had a glass of wine - nice list of wine selections. Menu showed local beers on tap as well some bottled options. Great list of signature cocktails - I will try one on my next visit. We tried 3 items from the Bites menu and they were all delicious. I don't think you can go wrong with any of the options. We sat outside so I can't speak to the indoor ambiance, other then to say it's nice. Prices are very reasonable!! read more

We were visiting relatives in Topeka and found Salut on Tock for a Sunday Brunch. With a nod to the French with an impeccable setting and menu, this a great alternative for a delicious brunch. Their Almond Croissant is one of the best we have had in a very long time (as it's all about the lemon paste interwoven into the dough). Though we did not order traditional eggs and bacon, this too is on the menu! And though it is not on the menu, they prepared poach eggs to perfection to go along with our avocado toast. Enjoy!!!! read more

Although it replaced my favorite bakery(sobbing for my lost kolaches), I have to give high marks to Salut. Vanessa T gave great recommendations for starters and the Grazing Board and Meat and Cheese Board had an interesting and tasteful variety of flavors My wife also ordered the Brie and Apricot which was excellent. I also had the Warm GoatCheese and Fig dip and it was very good. The cocktails were firs rate, especially the Barrister and the seasonal Pete Noel. If you are looking for a cozy place with good ambiance, a fun and welcoming staff and a tasty drinks and food, this is the place. If you have your heart set on a specific time, make a reservation since table space is limited. read more

Love this place. The cocktails are amazing and the staff is friendly. The tartines and charcuterie are tasty and I love the atmosphere.

A great place to unwind and enjoy a drink and hors d'oeuvres. The servers are friendly and helpful.

This is such a charming venue!! We stopped in on a Saturday afternoon and everything was delightful! Friendly service, delicious food, terrific wine and cocktails. The prices are in line with happy hour pricing in big cities. This is precisely the sort of place Topeka needs more of! If Topeka is ever going to get their tourism off the ground they have to step up with hotels, restaurants and shopping. This is a start! I am looking forward to returning. read more

Excellent service and wonderful atmosphere . They have a nice range of drinks and very good snacks

What a great place in Topeka! The owners have a great story -ask. The staff is friendly and fun little wine and apps place. Next time will try the speakeasy. read more
