The Cove is a restaurant and bar that is located on the bay. (Do not confuse this business with Rum Runners restaurant and bar, which is located a short walk away.) Please see my attached photos for the current menu and prices. I rate the service as 5 stars and the food as 3 stars, so my average overall rating is 4 stars.My husband and I ate lunch here on a Saturday. An employee immediately greeted us and seated us at a table that had a view of the bay. The waitress had a very friendly personality, and she was very timely and accurate with taking our order, bringing out our beverages and foods, and taking our payment. Here are my reviews for our foods:Asiago crab dip - 3 stars - This crab dip contained crab meat and was served with tortillas. The dip and tortillas tasted OK, but they were not as fresh as I had expected.Steakhouse burger - 3 stars - This burger had a beef patty and was topped with Swiss cheese, mushrooms, bacon, steak sauce, and a deep-fried pickle. Side garden salad - 3 stars - This side salad contained lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, onions, and a choice of dressing. Chicken sandwich - 3 stars - I did not type the exact name of this sandwich, because what we received does not exactly match a menu item. This sandwich consisted of individual chicken tenders rather than a chicken patty, and they were topped with honey mustard sauce and lettuce.

Paper plates and plastic silverware don't make for a nice evening by the lake. Food was fine

Our food were served longer than the wait time but I am not sure if that's only for this season. We were there like at 2:00pm.The view was nice since in the corner and near the water.My food was ok although not great and the group I was with thought the meat in their sandwich tasted like they're frozen foods.Our server wore mask, she was ok, I thought she moves slow or maybe she was just tired.Free parking on site.

This is a really cool place with a tiki vibe and indoor and outdoor seating. If they had some reggae music playing, it would've been perfect. The rum runners (frozen drink) are great. However, I'm struggling with what rating to actually give this place. We visited numerous times during our 4 day stay (conference at the very nearby Sheraton), mostly for drinks but we did order apps. Some other conference attending friends ate here Saturday night and said the food was crappy. So we didn't want to take our chances. Plus they are in the process of changing their menu so they were out of a lot of things. Our experiences were different each time we visited. First, they have hired and are training a bunch of new waitresses--assuming to get ready for summer. I'm curious to see which ones will last, as one in particular was a hot mess. She didn't know how to handle a large table (8 of us) and would only come back and take one request at a time, unless you yelled out to her. It took forever to get anything.Food: Over the course of our stay and multiple visits we ordered the giant pretzel (best app on the menu--soft, warm and comes with three dipping choices, all delicious), buffalo fingers (not bad), nachos (came with a shit ton of lettuce on the bottom...to make it look like there were more nachos than there actually were? They were pretty decent, regardless), mozzarella "moons" which were fried too long so there was hardly any cheese left in them, and spinach dip (very good with the pita bread that they ran out of, but they come with nacho chips as well). Service the entire time was just ok. The visually frustrated "veteran" bartender was annoyed with having three newbies to train at the same time and it did appear to be a bit of a cluster f**k. He was very nice to us and joked--he has a good personality and we enjoyed talking with him. I actually really like the vibe of this bar and I really hope they get their shit together. IMO It could potentially be a 5 star place. Great view, great drinks, great specials, decent veteran bartenders, great atmosphere. Now get the food quality up and your people well trained and you'll be good!!

Stopping for a drink after work with co-workers.I ordered a Southern Comfort on the rocks easy on the rocks. No twist of lemon/lime/cherry just whiskey & ice.The bill: Southern Comfort $3.50On the rocks $2.00Are you kidding me? $6 for whiskey I would have been okay with ... the specific line item for ice irksome.

Food was great!! The crab cakes were what I was wanting!!! I am not a big veggie person in my food and the crab cakes don't have that but tons of flavor. The coconut shrimp was absolutely fantastic and just the right amount. The sweet potato fried where terrific, anyone who eat them knows they have to be a little more on the done side and they where perfect. The service was great but they weren't to terribly busy that may have helped. Being able to look out at the water is so peaceful and really brings it all together. Absolutely fantastic place, it's a little smaller but wonderful food.

What a terrible restaurant. We were passing through to Presque Isle so stopped here for lunch. We will never make that mistake again.My wife had terrible fish and chips, supposedly cod but tasted like something artificial. Inedible fries. Since they like to use cutesy sea phrases, let me say that my buffalo chicken salad was a ship wreck. Terrible dressing and chicken. Beer served in a small thin plastic cup-awful.Add to that, they play the radio for music. We ate outdoors. Who wants to listen to a radio? Tacky décor.

Came here for the loaded Nachos. The menu changed and they no longer have them. We had the chicken finger and fry basket. The strawberry daiquiri had no strawberry flavor. The server was great. If you need a quick snack it is ok, if you have time go somewhere else.

A few days ago my friend and I stopped for lunch. The place is cute with nice views of the water, but that was the only good part of our lunch. We were greeted by the bartender, who was also our server, and he was very friendly. He explained what was not available on the menu. We ordered the crab cakes and they were terrible - obviously frozen from some supplier. They looked like mushroom caps and were greasy. The filling was mostly breading or something, but the crab meat was missing. We would not recommend this place to anyone.

Lauren is a ROCKSTAR bartender! They didn't have the drink my friend was looking for so she invented one for her and was so friendly and accommodating to our group. Great experience
