I absolutely love going to The Dove! It’s got a little bit for everyone. Great outdoor seating for the summer and a big car park for those driving. I go drinking at the pub with my mates and for a meal with the family. Staff are the best too, extremely friendly and just top class.

Went for Sunday lunch with family. 4 adults and 3 kids. We had the Sunday lunch menu and the specials. Food was amazing…. Quality and presentation were spot on!! The service was 5*, nothing was any trouble, very attentive and friendly staff! Some of our group were visiting from London and they were really impressed and complimented me on my choice of venue…. Thanks This was our 4th visit in 9 months and the service and food has been consistent every time 😀

Booked here based on reviews after struggling to find somewhere close to Christmas that offered something other than a festive menu the Sunday before Christmas. A large pub with dining room at the rear the food offered has the staple pub menu but done very well with interesting twists. I had the roast beef an was given the option of pink or well done. I had pink and it was done perfectly, the rest of the table had fish and chips, maccaroni cheese and an butternut squash curry all given rave reviews by an ofter tough crowd! Service was very good and very good value for money would highly recommend and I wouldn't hesitate to go baxk for the roast beef.

Not had food on the last few occasions Ive visited this pub, but the service is always rubbish. The staff hired do not want to work and always have a face on them for doing their job. I have never received one smile of any of the bar staff. This unfortunately represents the owners and Manager’s lack of customer service as well. He walks around with a face on him too. Never seen him greet regular customers. Really need to hire people that want to work and change their attitude. You chose to work in a customer facing based profession, don’t make customers feel bad for entering your establishment when they’re paying your extortion drink prices.

We went in for a sunday roast. It had been reccommended by family and they spoke highly about the food, so we thought to give it a try. We ordered: 2 x Sunday Vegan Roasts - the wellington was amazing! We werent fan of the soya meatballs and the homemade yorkshir pudding was ok...not the best but it was soo good to see the vegan yorkshire pudding there as many pubs do lnt offer it. Lots of potatoes and little veg with a lovely gravy sauce! 1 x Bang Bang Cauliflower- this was served as a starter and it was BEAUTIFUL! The presentation, the taste, portion size, everything was perfect. 1 x kid meal - Sausages (VE) beans and chips - the Sausages weren't that great at all, the taste, texture and everything about it just wasn't right. My child only had the chips and most of our gravy. Overall we thought it was ok but not the best. We would've liked more veg to be replaced with the meatballs and yorkshire pudding with the lovely wellington that was served. Also we reckon the vegan sausages need a but more flavour / better texture.

I always say to help out on small businesses and local restaurants. We have Been here a few times and was happy with the food and service until our last reservation on 5th of February. -The host was grumpy and didn’t even speak to us to say hello. - although only two tables, we had to beckon her to take our orders. - we ordered drinks before our meal, only to receive them half way through eating. - although one dish had a big portion of mussels which were half empty , you couldn’t even get to the sauce !! The sea bass, lamb shank and chicken, were bland and very greasy. So we didn’t enjoy them so all of our plates went back half full. - we weren’t even asked if the food was okay or why 5 plates are all going back half full? - we ordered more drinks and still had to wait an hour for them to come from the bar as they were very busy due to live band. - I even went to the host desk hoping the host would come back. But to my surprise two gentlemen came and thought I WAS the host and asked ME for a table!! ( that’s how long I was standing there) If the management had been more organised knowing it would be a busy night, then they should have hired more staff for the restaurant and bar!! - We even asked to speak to the manager, only to be told they were too busy to come. The only good outcome of our evening was Amelia who was rushing about trying to cover tables and seeing to everyone ( as it got busier in the restaurant) and the other girl (host) was disappearing into the kitchen. Going in and Coming out empty handed. Really disappointed as it is a lovely place with what the new owners have done!

Great place, chap has done wonders with this establishment, served by the man himself . Great food me and my twin had the steak meal rump not the biggest but very tender and thick, My nephew had fish and chips and was going to have an adults meal,on recommendation by the owner to cut the fish length ways was more than enough my nephew not being the big man!! My partner had a chicken burger meal breast with sides, we all enjoyed the great service, nephews meal was not charged as an adults meal 👍,more than enough and enjoyed 😉 hopefully will be back soon!!!

Booked in advance and seated in the conservatory, which was warm and full of light. Menu was varied with a specials board too. Food was freshly cooked and absolutely delicious. Perfect portion sizes.
