A very pleasant pub/restaurant with an excellent menu and wine list. Popular with locals and visitors alike. Will's culinary skills are amazing, with standards that one would expect in a top restaurant, and we have not found a worthwhile competitor in this area. Front-of-house standards are equally good with Sophie's attention to detail and her excellent rapport with customers. A busy evening before Christmas which had clearly been well planned with excellent staff providing an unhurried dining experience under Sophie's supportive role. We will be back!
Called in to this beautiful country pub on spec hoping for a light lunch, mid way through a woodland walk with our dog Barney, and received a warm and friendly welcome. We were very luck that a table for two was available and we were served the most gorgeous soup from a spectacularly tempting menu. The absolutely stars of the meal though were the bread rolls home made, stuffed with olives, sun-dried tomatoes, completely delicious with home made butter. We will be back, and with a reservation next time.
Absolutely lovely pub in the middle of gorgeous countryside near Canterbury. Small, but homely. Excellent set lunch menu £33.50 even on Saturdays. Our food was copious and delicious, the staff kind and helpful. Not sure about their choice of wines by the glass, but otherwise a great time was had by all. Recommended.

Amazing roast beef dinner! Portion size was perfect and the beef was so tender and tasty. The Yorkshire was excellent and such a good portion of veg (all cooked to perfection! . The chocolate sponge pudding was gorgeous and the selection of drinks was great. Lovely experience can’t wait to come back. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Visiting Canterbury to see family, I was recommended The Dove by a colleague, and boy it didn't disappoint.
