WHY WE LOVE THIS BAR...
Dovetail is a speakeasy-style bar hidden above a restaurant with views over Covent Garden Market — a location that adds to its sense of discovery. The entrance is discreet, but once inside the space feels instantly intimate, with low lighting, plush seating, and a design that nods to classic cocktail bars without feeling dated. It’s the kind of room that invites conversation, laughter, and evenings that run longer than planned.
The atmosphere is calm and considered, offering welcome respite from the bustle of Covent Garden below. Service is warm and attentive, while the drinks programme focuses on impeccably executed classics, each delivered with precision and confidence. Whether you’re after a perfectly stirred martini or simply a quiet corner to enjoy the night, Dovetail provides it with style. This is a bar that combines charm, craft, and setting into a seamless experience, making it a Covent Garden destination worth seeking out.
