The Dovetail

The place has a decent selection of Belgian beer - around 15 option on tap and dozens more in bottles. There is no niche super craft beer but most of the really popular options are present on the menu. It’s not super clean inside and there were some insects flying around and interfering. When we came they did not serve food anymore which was fine for us but unexpected overall. The time when they decided to close the pub felt random too

Class - where to begin? Tucked away in central London, me and my wonderful girlfriend strolled past and then backtracked to this lovely restaurant/bar. Service 10/10 fast. Beer 10/10 class. Food 10/10 even classier, pint of chips best in London. Mussels insane! Would have my birthday here. Thanks, I will be back.

An institution! Such an atmospheric and charming Belgian bar in the back streets of Clerkenwell. Fantastic range of beers, great food, and superb service.

Amazing brewery serving Belgium beer and food, seating is limited so book in advance if you can. They serve fantastic and above average pub food, we only had a small starter and mostly tried a few beers. I would come back here to try more beer and other food options.

Great selection of Belgian beers at very sensible prices (especially considering London) and generally served in the correct glasses - if that's your thing! Small but excellent selection of food, everything I've had had been both very tasty and sensibly priced. I've been early evening midweek on a couple of occasions and there's been no need to book a table, but you can reserve tables in advance if you want to. Very friendly and helpful staff too. This is how independent places should be 😀

Incredible find! Staff were attentive, friendly and knowledgeable. Food was tasty and plentiful (perfect frites) and the selection of beers is insanely vast. Excellent place to spend chatting with friends - will definitely be back.

A great little pub with an excellent selection of Belgian beer. I've never seen such a big selection, especially on tap, outside of Belgium. Not only is the selection great, with seasonal beers, but Paul, who runs the place, is very knowledgable. He is also very friendly and helpful, especially when it comes to trying to figure out what to have next. The food is also good, and just what you need to go with this kind of beer. I've had the moules-frites on a couple of occasions. The mussle are cooked just right, very tender and flavorful. The fries the come with it are excellent as well. The location itself is very nice and cosy, just the kind of place you want to sit down and relax with a delicious Belgian beer, especially in the colder months. I don't live that close, but I make a point on going there whenever I'm feeling like having a Belgian beer, and it's definitely worth the trip.

Great selection of Belgian beers (~10 draft and 90+ bottles) and reasonable prices, but beware of the old, angry man who will kick you out at 10:20pm (!), 5 min after the last call - that’s not a lot of time to drink a 8° Belgian beer… Unacceptable behavior when the official closing time is 11pm. 11pm. Just stay open until the end - there are customers.
