Dovecot Bar & Kitchen

Dovecot is a well-established bar and restaurant on Linthorpe Road that works equally well for food, cocktails or carrying on into the evening. The kitchen serves through the day, with British-style food alongside brunch and lighter options, while the bar side becomes a bigger part of the place later on, particularly towards the weekend. There’s outdoor seating, regular live music and enough of a food operation that it makes sense for lunch or dinner rather than only as a drinking stop. Bottomless brunch has also been part of its offering.
