Dover St Counter is the perfect hideaway for a few nibbles and a martini enjoyed right at the counter – exactly as the name suggests – while groovy tunes play in the background. Tucked away in Mayfair, the space has a cool energy that transports you straight into old New York – intimate, lively, and timeless all at once. It’s also become one of London’s best late-night dining spots, ideal when most kitchens have already closed. From the menu, don’t miss the whipped ricotta with truffle honey and Italian crispbread, the spicy, caramelised spaghetti all’assassina, and the cheeseburger – all worth ordering.
