19 Upper Mall, London, W6 9TA

This riverside pub is in the Guinness Book of Records for having the smallest bar in Britain. It serves highly recommended food and beer, and is very popular because of this. The dining area can be found at the rear, and beyond that is a conservatory. The outside terrace is a great spot for viewing the University Boat Race.

Reviews for The Dove

I've popped in and out of the Dove for years now and it never disappoints. It seems to be able to maintain it's position as a neighbourhood/local pub despite it's great location on the river and the fact that it is a "destination" pub.

For those of a patriotic leaning, "Rule Britannia" was composed there in the 18th Century.

My useful tip: Turn right immediately after entering the main door, open the door facing you and you will find yourself in the tiny snug bar. If there are more than four or five people in there, you won't be able to get in!
