Welcome to The Dove, Bury St Edmunds

The Dove is a traditional alehouse, situated just outside the town centre of Bury St. Edmunds.

There are six handpumps serving beers direct from the cooled, brick-vaulted cellar.

We are enthusiastic and knowledgeable about the beers we sell, of which a high percentage are sourced from East Anglian brewers (LocAle).

Main bar is rustic with scrubbed floorboards, there is a separate parlour area – we dont have any music or TV’s or Gaming machines – just lots of customers enjoying their ales.

There is a small car park to the rear and some drinking area in front of the pub.

Please – come and visit us and enjoy some great English Ales.

The Dove is CLOSING for most of July Landlord, Roger, is soon to have the first of two tricky vascular operations. After each, he'll need upto four weeks recovery time, hence the decision to close this weekend until near the end of July or until he regains the energy to run the old pub again. Please, watch this web-site for updates. 26/6/25:
