The Dove in Hammersmith and Fulham

Lovely food, very busy day and took a while for our drinks to be delivered to the table. Pub could use some better air conditioning as it was very stuffy.

Wonderful riverside pub with great character, real ales and if you’re lucky a table overlooking the river!

Estafa absoluta. Pedido pinta y una copa de vino y factura llegó a casi £ 18 ... . fue a barco azul cerca de un d hizo el mismo pedido para un £ 14. 70 . Estafar a los comerciantes. Evitar

Beautiful pub, cold beers and nice food. What's not to like😃

I ordered Sunday roast shoulder lamb, and it was so delicious that I ordered another beef. Among the side dishes, broccoli was delicious and the soup was also delicious. It is located where the Thames River becomes thinner, so it is a great place to see various birds and beautiful sunsets! Additionally, I was very grateful to the friendly staff. thank you! (Korean couple moved table because it was cold)

Fantastic place to be on a sunny day (yes, they happen in London)

This was the first pub I visited after arriving in England. The interior was impressive and seemed to have a long history, and there were guests of all ages. The staff are really friendly, smile a lot, and take good care of their guests. The food is delicious and I want to visit again next time. If you are staying nearby, I definitely recommend it.

One of the most beautiful pubs I have ever been to 😍 great views, very friendly staff, very clean and gets busy very quickly as so good.

It's was an amazing dinner...friend, foods, atmosphere and Marina, the person who served us. She was friendly and professional. Fantastic restaurant/pub by the river. I'll be back soon

Great place for a Sunday roast next to the river. Nice staff and good food. Remember to book if you plan your lunch on Sunday

One of the greatest pleasures in London. A river side seat, in The Dove, on a sunny spring day. Yours for the price of pint. Bargin

Gran pub en un barrio suburbano de Londres con un ambiente acogedor y agradable atención. Tiene un balcón fresco con un lado del río y una chimenea en el interior si hace frío (y fue ese día). Gran Fish & Chips. Buena cerveza. ¡Vale la pena!

A nice traditional pub with river views and terrace. Food is also good, albeit a bit slow in coming during busy periods.

Quaint, proper pub in a great residential area of London. Besides us, very few tourists in sight.

A corner full of history and charm The Dove is not just a pub, it is an immersion in the living history of London. Sitting by the fire or on the terrace by the river is like traveling back in time. This tavern has stood since the 17th century and has seen legendary figures such as the poet James Thomson, who wrote part of "Rule Britannia" here, and King Charles II, who dined with his lover Nell Gwynne. It even appears in the novel "The Water Gypsies" by AP Herbert, under the amusing pseudonym "The Pigeons." Beyond its historical legacy, the atmosphere is warm and authentic, perfect for enjoying a pint and good food. A classic English pub well worth a visit.

Only called in for a quick drink , very busy, good pint ok service

My sister had booked The Dove for Sunday luncheon. I ordered the roast beef and my sister just had the vegetables that came with the roast. The service was both fast and friendly. The beef was cooked just right, as were the roast potatoes. I could have done with a bit more cheese sauce on the Cauliflower, but that was my sole complaint. I had a nice glass of the Chile house red. Will be back soon at The Dove.

Sólo bebí, pero la comida se veía bien. miembro del personal era muy extraño - salimos y nos sentamos en algunos asientos vacíos en el balcón y nos hicieron levantarnos y movernos dentro. Un par de minutos después dijo que ahora podíamos salir. Todo un poco extraño. Dijeron que había una cola, pero nadie más salió antes que nosotros. Gran vista desde el balcón.

I originally chose the Dove due to the good reviews and location. I was looking for something tucked away that did not feel "touristy" - and the Dove seemed to fit the bill. When we arrived, the pub was a little under half full. Stuart greeted us and provided a choice of seats. His service was prompt and he made our visit quite enjoyable. My wife and I both had several beers from the hand pump taps, which were excellent. We started our meal with the cheese plate, which had a good selection of cheeses and was an excellent starter. For dinner I had the South coast rump of lamb, which was cooked to perfection. MY wife had the beef cottage pie which she thoroughly enjoyed as well. Overall, I recommend the Dove without hesitation. I will probably be back when we visit again next year.

I[ve been coming here for years as I live around the corner - the best pint of frontier in London!!! Without question. You have to buy it though - otherwise the brewery might change it to Asahi again much to the dismay of all customers!!

I went to the Pub on Sunday the 2nd of March, lucky to have a table for 3 people, the service was good but the food was not, two of my friends had Sunday roast with chicken that was white and tasteless, the cabbage boiled in water and the cauliflower overcooked. It looked like a Hospital Sunday roast for their patients. The dish looked microwave. What a disappointment and expensive I live locally and was chocked to the standard. Yesterday went to the Rutland Arms, what a difference!!!

Great place with very nice views and splendid food. Perfect for a sunny afternoon.

川沿いの席に案内されたが、テムズ河のながめもよく、風が気持ちよかった。料理は、斬新なメニューが多く、オーダーのときに想像しにくかったが、すべて美味しかった。

Super uriges Lokal mit ausgezeichneter Küche, tollem Service, magischem Ambiente sowie einzigartiger Lage. Definitv zu empfehlen!

They have purchased a table and stools from IKEA to pack a few more people in. Hides the fireplace but that added character and the Dove doesn’t do character anymore. Some Irish guy behind the bar thinks he is ‘God’s gift’ but he has room temperature IQ. It gets busy with tourists, never locals. They are all in the better pubs that surround this one.

... I paid an extortionate amount for a pint (even for London). The pub itself is nice but the tables are very close together, and the outside seating area is nice (overlooking the river) but again is very tight.

Lovely old pub. Great river views. Really nice staff. Because of the size, can get very busy. But don't let that put you off. Well worth a visit

The Dove is a beautiful little venue on the river. Unfortunately the staff are over it.. Probably worn down by all the entitled privileged people who come in and bark at them. We are not those people but the staff didn't notice or care. The passive aggressive, silent resentment oozing from their pores is too obvious. Pint of ale my husband ordered wasn’t drinkable and cloudy. How often are lines cleaned? Nothing was asked when they cleared the half drunk pint glass as to why? Not bothered. Starter of katsu aubergine really nice. Sadly, the halibut- priced at £36 pretty flavourless and overcooked. The risotto didn’t have any flavour to it and was undercooked and not creamy as you would wish.Took an age for them to clear our starters. Clearly they don’t care- don’t blame them - probably aren’t paid very well or incentivised but still it’s a shame. I had to walk up to the bar to order our desserts as we were forgotten about again. Poor service and average food. Wouldn’t mind if this was a wee local out in the country but they profess to be something special and sadly at £100 a head lunch- they really weren’t.

The pub is cute and staff are nice. Was disappointed by the amount of meat in my roast. Mad prices!

Came for a Sunday roast and it was unexpectedly closed. Fullers site and google both said open. Wasted journey. But positive review as the menu looks good and I will try again another time.

Nice atmosphere classic English pub lots of beers finger food safe we ​​also had kids with us

Update on 12th February: there are still mice in this pub. It has been closed for 4 weeks for tarting up, but they have not fumigated the cellar which is needed to address their recurring public health problem. Hygiene warning: There are mice in this pub. They may be living in the cellar which is not subject to inspections. They hide in the ancient walls and drink from the drip trays under the kegs.

Nice river side pub.be lovely in summer sitting outside.good beer.

Great pub, with great history, in a great setting with a great view.

Pub histórico justo en el río con balcón para los días soleados. Comida y bebidas un poco caro y 12. 5 % de servicio añadido, aunque el servicio bastante lento.

I adopted the place, small and cozy, with a view of the River Thames, and even a fireplace to warm up in this cold weather.

Just had a coffee, lovely ambiance

Después de mucha investigación, elegimos The Dove ya que queríamos llevar a nuestros parientes estadounidenses (su 1 hora de calle al Reino Unido) a una taberna histórica inglesa icónica en la orilla del Támesis - y a todos nos encantó (y esta fue la primera visita para todos nosotros!). El gerente y el personal eran muy acogedores y serviciales - nos retrasamos viajando desde Kent debido a los trenes cancelados, pero nuestros familiares fueron atendidos muy bien hasta que llegamos (y cuando llamamos para decir que llegaríamos tarde, el gerente era totalmente comprensivo). Solicitamos una mesa especial si es posible - y nos trataron a uno con vistas sobre el Támesis. La comida era deliciosa (nuestros parientes americanos habían querido probar pescado y patatas fritas tradicionales británicos / salchicha y puré y estaban tan encantados con los suyos! ) y al ser una vegetariana disfruté enormemente de los ñoquis - y a mi marido le encantó su plato de pollo! Todos tuvimos un tiempo maravilloso, no tuvimos prisa en absoluto y nos hicieron sentir tan bienvenidos. El pub es realmente atmosférico, con carácter, esencialmente inglés, una porción de historia - y tan contentos de que elegimos este lugar especial para traer a nuestros parientes estadounidenses, gracias!

One of my favourite riverside pubs in Hammersmith. This is especially true on a cold winters day when you’re lucky enough the get a spot by the fire at the front.

Fantastic and historic riverside pub. Fuller place. Outside seating is on a deck above the river. Rule Britannia was written here. Usually very crowded. I would suggest booking a table in advance for lunch or dinner.

We turned up for lunch to relaise i had booked the wrong day, being mid December the pub was deservedly very busy, we had a drink and sat in the bar area. We were quickly asked by Stuart if we'd like the next table that came up and it mightbe roughly 20mins, he was spot on and we were sat at the ideal tabel within 15 mins. We had a brillient meal and Sturat made sure we didn't go without throughout our stay. Excellent service, excellent food.

Amazing Sunday Roast! Beautiful, old historic pub. It is small though, if going for Sunday Roast or dinner you need to book in advance. If going for a pint and snack, go during the week in the afternoon.

Went for a Sunday roast last week. Staff were amazing and friendly and the food was delicious-great way to finish off the year. Will definitely be back.

Have visited the Dove many times before, but only recently had a sunday roast. The food and service were great. Lovely staff and atmosphere as usual. Always enjoy a visit!

Food was lovely, attentive staff at the start but then slowed down and we had to chase for the bill after giving up trying to place a dessert order. Lovely pub, nice atmosphere but please turn down the phone ringing level as it kept interrupting conversation and was a distraction as wasn't answered.

Brilliant on the terrace, weather permitting.

Staff were lovely and friendly. Lovely inside and great atmosphere. Starters good - camembert and octopus. Mains were very underwhelming which is a shame as we had been looking forward to a delicious lunch! We ordered a crab and mussle linguine. Mussles were rubbery like they had been microwaved and the crab was only in the sauce (so no actual crab meat). This arrived much later than all other meals, and tasted dry. Not a very tasty meal. The pies were very light on meat and pretty tastless. Would not return for food. But would for drinks and nibbles.

Cozy and authentic waterside pub. It’s one of my favorite places for a roast on Sunday 😎

Delicious food, staff very professional, especially Monika

Lovely old Thameside pub, which also has an additional front bar, which is the smallest bar in the UK.

Called in for a pint. Lovely pub. Very friendly staff and customers. I would return if I was in this area again.

I stopped in this place for a beer, the pub is gorgeous, very old and super welcoming. They have a fireplace where it is very pleasant to stop for a break and relax. Super recommended!

Guy running the floor was rude and kept approaching us to complain but without presenting any options for us to resolve the situation he seems to have imagined we created by having 1 adult over our booking. He soured the atmosphere and aggressively cornered parts of our group 1 by 1 to complaon about an issue he caused. On top of this the food was average and expensive.

Buenos recuerdos en este lugar! Sin embargo, al igual que muchas de las opiniones más recientes, algunos de los funcionarios tardaron en ser útiles. Tardamos un rato en traer cubiertos / platos claros / traer salsas. No parecía muy interesado o comprometido. Sin embargo, Stuart fue la excepción y básicamente parecía estar cuidando de todo el pub él mismo. ¡Muy buen tipo, lo cuidaría si fuera el propietario!

¡Buen recuerdo de este lugar! Lamentablemente, como muchas de las críticas más recientes, el servicio era deficiente y el servicio a varios de los camareros y camareras no parecía importarles... Esto fue aparte de un camarero - Stuart, él era fantástico, muy atento y parecía estar llevando todas las cubiertas él mismo. ¡Yo cuidaría de Stuart si fuera el propietario!

El tipo que manejaba el piso era grosero y se nos acercaba para quejarse, pero sin presentar ninguna opción para que resolviéramos la situación que parece haber imaginado que creamos al tener 1 adulto sobre nuestra reserva. Agrió el ambiente y agresivamente acorraló a partes de nuestro grupo 1 por 1 para quejarse de un problema que causó. Además de esto la comida era promedio y caro.

Another "pub" that doesn't want to be a pub, but wants to be a restaurant. Popped in here during a walk along the Thames path, and expected to be able to (as I have done several times before) chose a table outside (as it was a nice day), then go up to the bar and order some food. Only to be informed by a staff member when I queried it (I got asked if I had a reservation when I entered, which I thought was odd, and the tables were laid out like it was a restuarant) the whole place is now table service only, which I hate. I swiftly left and headed back to the Rutland Arms, which is a pub which is still a pub. What a shame as it used to be a nice pub......when it was actually a pub. No wonder the place was empty.

While on a business trip to England, I came to "Dove" not far from my accommodation and had a quiet evening. It had the best atmosphere of any restaurant I've been to in London and the food was delicious. In particular, the beer was the best I had during my two weeks in London. It was a business trip this time, but I will come back someday when I visit London again with my wife.^^

Didn’t accept cash which was disappointing Particularly as they had issues with card machines which took ages to resolve.

The fish in the fish n chips tasted dry and muddy but the few chips that came with it were quite good. The calamari was more batter that squid and what little squid there was was a bit chewy. Service was friendly enough and efficient.

Lovely pub, good food beautiful spot on the river

A really old school pub that are quite rare these days. The only thing that's updated is the food and the drinks but everything else just oozes with character. I love it.

Un encantador pub anticuado como debería ser. Situado justo en el río era muy acogedor y acogedor. Aunque no cenamos la comida se veía fantástica. Muy ocupado para el almuerzo del domingo.

Good food and excellent service from Mounika!

A very cute Dickensian riverside pub. Absolutely tiny but that adds to the charm and why it's made the list of 20 must visit pubs in London. They have a section round the back serving food with great river views. Lovely spot for Sunday roast but you do need to book in advance and avoid peak hours if possible.

I made a reservation as soon as it opened. Since it was a bad day, we were assigned a cozy table near the fireplace. One of my family members was not feeling well and I am grateful to the server for being considerate of her. The French fries at Fish & Chips were delicious and the side dishes were also delicious. The roast chicken was tender and delicious served with mushrooms, vegetables, and beans. Americano and cappuccino are the best coffees I had in London. Desserts are also great. The exquisite combination of orange sherbet and chocolate is fantastic. It was the last meal of our 10 day trip to London and it was so good! Oh and Mounika was so friendly. They treated us wonderfully and made sure we had everything we needed. Thanks again for her kind smile!

A pub with the most epic view of the Thames.

Too loud the English speak loudly

Great food in a typical English pub, friendly staff, beautiful atmosphere

Ask for Suart, the kindest person I ever met. Came today with my disabled mum and help we received from him was out of this world. Beautiful place, small Nd cosy with delicious food and fast service.

Such a blissfully beautiful place & a lovely place to leave after a lovely time of fun & frollocks! The vibe is great & the music is fitting to indie feel of the place x3 With Love, Artist & Local Mark Kamara/Mark Kamara International Youtube Channel

Delightful little pub lovely views over the river, limited seating but not that busy on a Wednesday evening. Highly recommended.

Lovely old London Pub. Great atmosphere. Very popular with the locals

We ordered fish and chips and it was the best meal ever. The atmosphere was amazing, quiet, next to river and peaceful. Service was excellent. We would definitely come back.

Nice friendly pub. Had a nice vibe. We only popped in for a quick drink

Nice view and delicious Sunday roast beef

Old independent English pub, welcoming and easy going atmosphere, beautiful terrace overlooking the Thames. Good simple and typical food, very kind service, the staff makes you feel at home. A place to return to!

Very small pub, with a very warm and authentic atmosphere, efficient and friendly service, typical dishes of British cuisine, in a fantastic setting on the banks of the Thames.

Beautiful setting on the Thames for a sunny Friday afternoon. Not too packed like ither pubs bearby. The food was OK. Spatchcock chicken had to be returned once due to being undercooked. It came back slightly better but still very pink enough to not eat the whole thing. I might just be paranoid but red drumsticks didn't feel safe to eat

Was super excited to go to the Dove today hadn’t been in ages. Have nothing bad to say about the service or the place that was as good as always. However £19 for this burger was pretty ridiculous and I felt pretty ripped off. It was dry, flavorless and incredibly small. Considering the price point you would expect a lot better from a pub notorious for its food. Really let down and won’t be back for food any time soon.

Three of us visited The Dove one Monday evening, in September. It was warm and sunny, and we were not expecting to sit on the terrace as this is an incredibly popular pub. I would highly recommend pre-booking as it gets extremely busy. The Dove has different seating levels. The entrance - via a narrow walkway - incorporates the bar and a cosy seating area. Climb a few steps to lead into the main restaurant. Continue into the enclosed conservatory and then onto the 2 outside terraces one above the other, that have fabulous views over the River Thames, Hammersmith Bridge, etc. The staff are friendly and welcoming, providing an excellent service. Dogs on leads are permitted. There's limited street parking nearby, but most visitors walk. We had a range of drinks, 1 starter, 3 mains including seafood linguine, plaice and spatchcock chicken, plus 2 desserts. The total was £141. The food was hot and delicious. My only criticism would be that the ladies loo should have a decency blind to cover the 'frosted' window to minimise embarrassment! It was a great place to visit.

Amazing place, great local staff and food, splendid location by the river, historic place keeping a great level of service and food

Incredibly located pub right by the river. On top of that, the food is excellent and the service is 5-star. Immediately booked a table for next Sunday.

Food was really good! The service was amazing, beautiful terrace and amazing Sunday roast.

Amazing pub, Amazing food and amazing service. We had the best table of the pub right on the river. Thanks The Dove!

Excellent location, plenty of space both outside by river and inside. The vibe was perfect, the staff was very kind and food quality was also great.

Great lovely old pub be the river with proper quiet snugs. Nice pint of Fullers.

Food was great. Service is so-so!

Best Guinness I've ever tried in London

The staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. The table service outside overlooking the river was very good and professional. A good selection of beers too.

Visité a mi esposa para almorzar el viernes por la tarde a las 2 pm , quería comer y un par de bebidas , el tipo que nos mostró a nuestra mesa solo estaba interesado en el tiempo que estábamos comiendo , una vez que dijimos que estábamos comiendo nos dejó sentarnos en una mesa lo suficientemente grande para nuestros platos , esperamos 10 minutos para hacer nuestro pedido , ya teníamos nuestras bebidas , una vez que pedimos el camarero regresó y dijo que estaban fuera de stock para lo que pedimos , así que elegimos otra cosa , luego regresó y dijo que estaban fuera de stock para otra cosa que pedimos , así que decidimos comer en otro lugar , pagamos por nuestras bebidas pero al despedirse del jefe del restaurante simplemente refunfuñó algo, mal servicio al cliente en general

Very nice pub, on the riverside, with both inside and outside seating. The staff were friendly and the service was perfect. I had a Cottage Pie which was very good, looked fresh, and a nice pint.

Poor service - repeatedly had to ask for attention eg menus, to order even a knife. Poor food. Fish and chips - chips thin and greasy. Fish batter crisp but made with some unpleasant ingredient. Chicken salad unimaginative and absolutely drowning in mayonnaise/dressing. Nasty cappuccino, tasted like instant coffee.

it was such a beautiful experience, our waiter Stuart, was very funny and gentle. I advice everyone to come here.

Another cashless dump. Why do businesses wish to exclude people who use cash. Avoid this place.

What can you say little Gem stuck out of the way down the little side road but one of the best pubs in Hammersmith along the river walk .I used to drink in this establishment 40 years ago and it has not changed one bit which is really really good 10 out 10 please play it a visit

Really lovely riverside pub Stunning views.

Awful food. Great location. Suggest to have drinks only.

The best pub on the Thames. Very beautiful, authentic, and great friendly service

Lovely pub on the river. Outdoor area is a little tight for space but overall great. Staff were very friendly and attentive. Sunday roast was spot on.
