Reviews in Leicester

Atmosphere is lovely and we could not have been made more welcome. The food is superb and the price very reasonable. I found the chili sauce on my dish a little hotter than I like so I was offered a free drink. Excelent service Our favourite restaurant.

We visited after reading reviews on Trip Advisor and were not disappointed. Two of us ate on a Saturday afternoon on the way to a concert in Leicester. We were given a very warm welcome and advised on our wine choice. We then shared a lovely starter of duck followed by delicious salmon and hallumi skewers. The food was fresh and tasty and very well presented. We finished with a coffee and mini dessert. We were very happy with the service and food quality, and thought the price was very reasonable. The 'conservatory' room that we sat in was light and comfortable. We would recommend it it you are visiting the vicinity.

Well our second review of the Dove and totally different from our other excellent one. Fish and chips, fish was mainly batter, chips were ok, mushy peas were very very sweet, quite unusual not in a good way. Lettuce wedge salad with salmon, well for £20 you get a quartered baby gem lettuce, a few pine nuts, a bit of chopped tomato and about 4 croutons, with a small portion of very dry over cooked salmon. Children’s pasta and tender stem broccoli, pasta was not overly warm and we had to ask for the broccoli which when it arrived was cold. When we eventually saw a staff member they offered to replace the salmon! I will make it clear we told the staff member we were not seeking a refund as we had eaten the majority of our meals but were extremely disappointed with both the quality and poor value for money. We note the establishment does not appear to respond to comments so wonder why they ask you to review them. We were planning to take a group of diners here but based on this experience that has now been cancelled, consistency is the key and we do not recommend restaurants lightly. Cannot fault friendliness of staff.

An excellent pub with a variety of meals on the menu. Waiters/ waitresses were efficient and friendly. Meals were fairly priced. Will be back soon.

Food and service were both excellent, would definitely recommend

Based on other reviews maybe we visited on a bad day but we found the food to be fair too salty and overpriced for the portion size. Unfortunately we won't be visiting again to see if this was just a one off. The staff were all friendly and helpful.

Great food, lovely service and really good atmosphere! Definitely recommend this restaurant.

Good service and food for our party of 11. Friendly and efficient service. All as we pre ordered.

I love this place, food is always excellent, particularly the Sunday roasts, I believe it’s one of the best in Leicestershire. Alex, Leah and the team are excellent, they are all so friendly. If you haven’t tried it then do so, as you are missing out! See you again soon.

Superb steaks and excellent service

Took my family for a meal for dads birthday. Landlord very friendly, took onboard feedback and the food was lovely. Currently being renovated but it feels like a really nice pub. Thanks for a great time.

Booked a table for my birthday. Was not disappointed. The service as always was amazing with the staff being very friendly and willing to answer any questions that we had. The food was lovely-I ordered the chicken tikka flatbread. It did not disappoint. The combination of flavours was great. My mum ordered the scampi which again was really tasty. I would recommend The Dove to anyone. We will certainly be back.

First visit. Highly recommend. Fantastic food and brilliant service….. we will definitely be returning!
