What People Are Saying About Dove

The Scene – Greenwich Village sensibility meets 19th-century charm at this sub-sidewalk level watering hole. The decor is straight-up Victorian--complete with red brocade wallpaper, ornate gold moldings, frilly pillows and matching teacups filled with snack mix. Despite the lavish details, the drinks are served at dive-bar prices, drawing a mixed crowd of fresh-faced college kids, gray-haired ladies, dressed-down dudes and glammed-up gals. – – The Draw – The bar offers 10 draft beers--poured through a shiny gold tap system--and a well-chosen wine list. On the drink…

Sounds great

by hagop

I haven't been to The Dove, but upon reading the negative reviews by the whining yuppies, I can't wait to go. I'll be in NY next week for a vacation from bartending in San Francisco. I always use cash, never credit cards (I'm no fool), and I plan to ask to be served by the bitchy redhead?sounds like my kind of gal! I pride myself on my high negative ratings on YELP.

Good Place Nasty Redhead Host

by Leigh519

Not a bad atmosphere, hasn't been completely taken over by the hip crowd. The tea sandwich sampler was fantastic and generally the staff was helpful and pleasant. Except, avoid the red head female. She is completely rude and for no reason. The rest of her equals were great. We asked for a plug to charge a phone, she gave us the brush off and said "ya we don't do that." Another worker saw this and said.."go ahead there's one over there." over the course of the evening and her rudely interjecting and actually giving dirty looks we found that the phone had been unplugged and tossed to the side. In making eye contact with her, we got that "ya I'm the b%#CH that did that for no reason." So go there, but tell the redhead to f-off.

  • Pros: Intimate, Good Snacks
  • Cons: Can be crowded, need reservations for seating usually, evil redhead

A bar with heart...

by tomtomnyc

I just found out what The Dove is doing for their new years party and it kinda blew my mind. Get this, on what is probably one of the most lucrative nights of the year for any bar, they are giving all the money they make to charity! Wow. I work for a non-profit org. and let me tell you, we need more businesses like this in New York. The party sounds good too: open bar, absinthe (is it real???) and a burlesque show. If I was gonna be here for new years, I would have already bought my ticket. But I'm headed to Paris, so don't feel too bad for me!

  • Pros: Good wines and decor, classy

The Details on Dove

Happy Hour:

Every day until 8pm, specialty martinis, small carafes of wine, cosmos and margaritas are only $6 each.

Where to Sit:

If you can snag it, grab the window seat and catch a breeze all summer long.

The Extras:

Snack mix isn't doing the trick? Nosh on light, upscale bar fare like bread, cheese and olives.
