The Dove, Bury St Edmunds

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.
