picture of DoveA pleasant old pub on the river close(-ish) to Hammersmith bridge. It looks like a good British pub should - situated in a narrow alleyway, a low door opening into dingy interior with nooks and crannies furnished with old wooden chairs, stools and benches. The pub opens at the back into a riverside terrace which has had a couple of extra ad hoc extensions and that gives a clue as to why we don't rate this pub any higher than a three - quite simply it's almost always packed. If you like jostling shoulder to shoulder with people and doing the furtive-vacant-table-search as you chat to your mates, then this is the pub for you, it's not for us. Saying that, as one would expect, a sunny weekday afternoon will give a better chance than the weekend to relax here. The beer is well kept (it doesn't exactly have far to travel) but the food is no better than average.
