About The Dove Pub and Kitchen

Alex, Rhe and the team provide a warm welcome and excellent service at this Evington pub and restaurant in Leicester’s eastern suburbs. Great-value classic British pub food is served in the bar and large garden area with fresh, innovative dishes with an Asian twist available in the newly refurbished restaurant. It’s a very family friendly venue too and dogs are welcome in both the bar area and garden. The Dove is open for lunch and dinner every day (except Sunday evening) and the bar has a selection of real ales as well as wines, spirits and soft drinks. And if you’re planning a special party or event you can hire a marquee or private garden area.

Yet another smashing meal at The Dove! Definitely one of my favourite places to eat in Leicestershire

We were a party of five and all of us agreed the food at the Dove was excellent, our party sampled the Christmas turkey dinner and two vegetarian options. The service was a little slow as it was very busy but that suited us as we could have a talk and enjoy the meal without being rushed to finish. We have been to the Dove a number of times now and the food has always been good. I should also mention Alex and the serving staff were also very pleasant even though they were trying to serve a lot of people on the night.

Good Brunch but a few adaptations needed... especially for vegan diet Lovely friendly service, clean and very welcoming. Water offered on arrival. Hot drinks are served from a machine so limited variety for dairy-free diet. Only teabag served is 'English Breakfast' more variety needed. Tea is given as a hot cup of water with a tea bag, a teapot would be nice as tea becomes cold very quickly. Oat milk is given as one little sachet, more oat-milk is needed so had to request and once they are added, tea becomes very cold; no option to request warm oat milk. Breakfast options are good, limited vegan choices. One vegan breakfast was served with butter...!!! Oops! Little breakky- £8.50 great value (Pork or Lincolnshire Sausage | Smoked Bacon Rasher | Fried Egg | Hash Brown I Baked Beans | Balsamic Cherry Vine Tomatoes | Sautéed Garlic & Herb Mushrooms I Toasted Tiger Bread) as a vegan, requested for sausages, bacon and egg to be swapped for smashed avocado... said they couldn't do, I'm unsure why... so I ended up 'paying more and getting less' for Smashed Avo £8.50 option of Toasted Tiger Bread | Avocado | Cherry Tomatoes | Chilli Flakes | Balsamic Glaze plus £1.50 for mushrooms! Strange not to offer my request. So, overall a lovely place, but a few changes needed with hot drinks and vegan options.
