The Dove at Dargate restaurant reviews




Average rating: 4.7
Highly recommended! We had a delicious Sunday lunch here yesterday. Really pretty pub with a lovely garden and plenty of shade. Great food and truly the nicest staff I've encountered anywhere for a long time. Five stars for friendly customer service where nothing is too much trouble. They even found a place for us to come back after a long walk in Blean Wood (recommended!) and enjoy a dessert. Thanks to all of you for a great afternoon.
