My husband and I really enjoyed our experience. Great food and lovely service! The black salmon starter has to be one of the best I’ve had in a while and the cocktails go down a treat, I’d have to say the best cocktails around. We will hopefully be returning soon.
We came here as a group of five and were greeted by very welcoming staff. They had a rather small limited Sunday menu when we arrived but there was still enough of a selection to pick dishes that we all liked.
We were recommended the goats cheese as a starter and it didn't disappoint. It was served
Absolutely amazing evening at the Dovetail. Food was fantastic- taste and presentation. Service was excellent. Celebrating an anniversary tonight and couldn’t have had a better experience.
Wonderful Sunday lunch, two courses for £25. Great service again and the food was well presented and quality exceptional. Comprehensive wine list. Highly recommended.
Beautiful atmosphere! Delicious meals! Very friendly service!
I have had a couple of meals at The Dovetail. One for an anniversary and the other for a major birthday milestone. Both times I found the staff to be charming, the cocktails well made, and the food to be delicious and very good value. I was also impressed by the degree of vegan and gluten free optio
The staff is absolutely the best, food delicious (we had pork belly and roast dinners)super tasty to 3 Michelin stars , reasonable prices. Definitely recommend to anyone passing by or local enough to walk and have a espresso martini and walk back home for nap afterwards. My friend had the best birth
My friend and I went for lunch for her birthday on Saturday, we had the best afternoon in the Dovetail, the food was outstanding along with the service. I would highly recommend paying Paul and his team a visit in very nicely done out restaurant and bar. Thank you for making our afternoon special.
Bit merry right now and that's because the cocktails are so good! Cracking pizza too in the lovely relaxed bar area. Just what we wanted from our spontaneous night out. Thank you so much!
Wow…… visit from Bournemouth and the cocktails were fantastic especially the strawberry Daiquiri and French Martini 😃 I have strawberry Daiquiri from all over the world and this is the best one I have tasted. Fabulous Service from all the staff and the food all I can say is WOW 😃 thank you
We had two pizzas with side salad followed by creme brulee and chocolate delice. All nicely prepared and presented and reasonably priced. Also a free glass of prosecco!
Lovely restaurant with great food, best cocktails and reasonable prices. Nice inside and outside area. Staff very knowledgeable and polite.
I wish I was a food critic for the Times or another well known company, The Dovetail far exceeded my expectations and that of my husband who is not easily satisfied!
I booked the Dovetail in a sheer panic as I had forgotten our wedding anniversary! I walked into Oakham and walked passed the Dovetail
Only stopped in for a drink but the staff hospitality made me wish we had booked for dinner! Thanks all I'm a fan of that Bumbu Rum.
Beautiful building to top it off.
Cheers!
Brilliant lunch meant that we returned for brunch the next day. Excellent service and high quality food. Also catered for our pram and babies really well.
