user reviews of the Lord Nelson, Dover

please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.

Reopened - just before the virus lockdown - after a £350k refurbishment.

It was closed for four months, and now again - probably for a bit longer.

I visited this pub again over the xmas holidays and found it to be the most welcoming pub in Dover i have been in so far .
The landlord and landlady are really nice people, some may say the beer is a bit on the expensive side but in my opinion a nice pint is served with good hospitality from them.
The locals are a nice bunch and the atmosphere was generally
welcoming. the place seemed a bit empty but bare in mind this is a large pub and 20 punters looks like no one was in the place!!!!
Colin & Sandra you are doing a great job and i am sure more people in Dover will soon get to know the good job you are doing. Also it was great to see the former landlord Pete of the Ren as it was locally using the pub

visited this pub on a very cold day both the building and the landlady gave me a warm welcome. The beer is great. The locals are a friendly bunch. The place is spotlessly clean. well worth a visit. I will certainly go back.

Looks like a great Shepherd Neame ale house from the outside but inside its a tad different. Lots of chavvy girls and fizz due to all 3handpumps turned when i visited couple of weeks back. Opted for a pint of Oranjeboom as it's quite a rarity on draught although wasn't too impressed with the �3.10 tag, 5/10

Lord Nelson is a great place. Friendly staff / owners. Good food can recommend it as a B&B.

I am not sure if this is the pub i am looking for.
I've been in Dover 1.5 yrs ago with my (girl) mate.
Our purpose was to have a weekend of fun, just getting to England and see where we end.

As it was high summer 2004 it was hot those days.. and we stopped at a pub. Had great fun there.
At the end they called us a cab to bring us to the nearest campsite.
Know i am looking for this pub, I want to go there again
