Burgers were excellent. Cooked perfectly and has a char broiled taste. It's an older bar, nothing fancy. Service was pleasant and quick. Had love music. Couldn't understand the guy but good guitar player. I would go there again when visiting for a good burger.

It looked like all I saw in the restaurant were locals - which was a good thing. I got the Blackened Chicken Quesadilla. The dish had plenty of chicken, although I was expecting more spice. My wife got a hamburger. It's always nice when you order medium-rare you get medium rare. Service was great! The live music was turned up too loud for the size of the restaurant.
The Cove has the best food at the beach! Its the definition of a dive bar, but the blackened chicken/shrimp avocado is amazing! They also have excellent homemade potato chips, wraps, burgers, etc.

Great food all around for 4 of us for lunch. Excellent service. Highly recommended.
The live musician was great. He played a variety of genres, a good mix. The best chicken wings I've had. Only 2 beers on tap was the minor drawback but I did enjoy the taste of one. They have 2 pool tables also. The average age of customers was 50. It was an enjoyable experience for us on a Saturday night.

Grilled wings. Burgers. Stuffed avacado. Pub chips. Pork rinds. And Service. All outstanding. Locals place. Hidden gem!
Best cheeseburgers around and they have ice cold coors banquet. The staff is always friendly and on point.

Great off the main road bar and grill. Live music nightly. Some bar food but a few nontraditional items. The char-grilled avocado with seasoned shrimp and black beans was delicious!

Awesome hamburgers! Word of mouth recommended by long-time area patrons at a separate, hugely popular bar and grill nearby. So we tried this place because the hamburgers were said to be amazing, and that's exactly right. Great food, quick and friendly service, super atmosphere. Glad we visited!

I ordered fish tacos. I’m still not sure what they brought me. It smelled like fish and it might have been fish and there were definitely some tortillas on the plate and there were some ok looking onion rings straight from the frozen foods section of the grocery store. My server was busy behind the bar and came by a couple times after they saw I wouldn’t eat what they served and brought me a box to take out. But when I scraped the pile of unidentifiable food into the box someone from the kitchen grabbed it from my hand before I could fully set it down and that was the best service I got in the time I was there. I don’t think they liked the plate setting on the table for so long when everyone could see what they were serving and were waiting for me to get it out of sight. Of course it still cost me a premium price but you’ll never convince me that was fish tacos. It was a pile of burnt up something and tortillas.
Awesome place
