The Black Dove

Eccentric and original, The Black Dove defies definition. Describing itself as a ‘purveyor of fine alcohol, atmosphere and audio’, it is part pub, part cocktail bar, part music venue, in a compelling dark setting, adorned with curiosity shop chic. If eclectic ales and ciders are your thing, there is lots to celebrate: recently featured beers include Oskar Blues Dales Pale Ale from Colorado, Wiper & True Milk Shake Stout from Bristol and Weihenstephan Hefe Weiss from Germany. Cocktails are expert, sophisticated and made at a glittering, glamorous, spirit-stocked bar.

Music at the Black Dove, both live and vinyl, is as individual and varied as the drinks menu. The helpful home page of their website has the details.
