Great atmosphere, but can get crowded in the evenings. Good selection of Belgian beer, including a guest on draught. Also the real ales are usually perfect, the Brewers Gold went down a treat last night. Agree though the unisex toilets do let the side down.

I've been in again a recently having been visiting the Dove on and off since '99 when I recall the bar staff were all squatters and the crowd poor Geography students from the then QMW in Mile End. These days it's a whole lot more 'fashion yeah?' with their Sloany mates coming up from SW somewhere to check out the scene. However the Dove still does ACE beer and I've found the Tim Taylor Landlord to be outstandingly well kept. It really is a joy to drink. However the partially lit unisex toilets are appaling and make me quite glad I am not female. The food is acceptable and eating in the restaurant area gives you a chance to avoid the weekend crowds who ram themselves into the front bar. Never understood why people ram themselves into pubs like that. Oh and the bar is well staffed by folk who don't fully hate the job which is nice.

Busy on a Thursday but polite pro service from bar staff and good ales inc. Abbot, Tim Taylor, Flower IPA, Brewers Gold to name a few. Crowd a bit Sloany but Bdy Mkt been like that for a while now.

One would need security with them when entering this bar to save them from the atrocious manners from the elderly owner and wildeyed manager alike.Overpriced
belgian beers and lukewarm food to cap it off.They
must be having a right laugh.Like a bar you might find up north or in wales.

In answer to cuban heels and christmas parties.
I have had my christmas party here two years in a row and we loved it. Yes they try to keep the pub quiet and calm for all users. Reading some of the reviews and being in customer service myself I wonder if it is the staff that are 'rude' or the customers complaining. I have never had anything other than a very warm welcome.
Your are guaranteed a peaceful, well organised and fun evening - fantastic food and a great variety of booze. What better combo for christmas lunch.
