Always great food. We go to The Cove for our romantic dinners and celebrations. The specials are great but the standard menu choices are great too. We have the frequent diner discount card.

Food was excellent, very fresh selection of seafood. Always enjoy their locally sourced shrimp, regardless of the dish it is featured in. The location is a bit cramped since it is right next to another shop, so parking can sometimes be a bit tight but is generally pretty solid. Overall, The Cove is an excellent representation of Holden Beach seafood cuisine for a good price.

Went 2 times during my visit to Holden and I would recommend it to anyone looking for vegetarian options here at the beach. The black bean burger is excellent and reasonably priced. Plenty of options, all look well made with some thought and love behind
the dishes. I will definitely go back!
