The Eagle Tavern

Walk into The Eagle and you're getting the Dover pub experience—no faffing about with craft this or artisanal that. It's the sort of place where regulars have their spot at the bar and the staff actually remember what you were drinking last week. You'll find yourself nursing a pint among the sort of people who've lived here for decades, which is exactly the point. The food's straightforward and actually decent for the price, and it pulls a solid crowd most nights without ever feeling rammed or trying too hard.
