Vegan Options! - Edit
The Cove has always had vegan items on the menu for years, but now it is clearly defined and has it's own vegan burger section. 🍔 taste is always 10/10, but the patty always fall apart

Awesome for families - Edit
The Cove have nailed it. Great menu for vegans and veggies. Their kids menu includes a mini veggie burger and fries that are vegan, and they have a great play area. We were really impressed and will definitely be back.

Five stars! - Edit
I came here for one of their live music nights and got a veggie burger and a cider. I love the atmosphere of this place. It's casual and family-friendly. The veggie burger is made in house, and it is one of the best I have ever had. I would frequent this place all the time if I lived in the area.

Amazing place - Edit
Casual, friendly. Plenty of vegan and vegetarian food options. Great place to take the extended family who may not be quite so food conscientious. Everyone can get something to their liking.

Try the vegan cheeseburger - Edit
Cashew cheesy goodness awaits! I agree with other in that the bacon doesn’t have much flavor but it does add a nice crunch to the burger. One of my favorite vegan burgers I have tried. I would come back just for the burger.

Underwhelming - Edit
Tried this out after seeing it on Triple D. I thought the area was pretty cool, it has a large outdoor area to sit and I guess they have music there sometimes. The food was so overpriced though, and didn't taste great. I had the vegan bacon cheeseburger which was good, but not worth $11 for only a burger with no sides. It also had more mustard than I would have liked. I also got the chips and hummus. It tasted fine, but was a chunky texture like when I try to make hummus at home and can't get it smooth and creamy with my cheap blender. The chips seemed like standard tortilla chips from a store.

Decent vegan options - Edit
This was a really cool location that was very vegan friendly with a bunch of options for both the vegans and omnivores in our group. Everything tasted great and we had a wonderful time. However, one person in our group has a gluten intolerance and was not feeling well afterwards. Although we tried to ensure everything ordered was gluten-free, there may have been some cross contamination, so keep that in mind if applicable.

Very hip place! - Edit
Lots of good vegan options to choose from! I got the “cheeseburger” and it was very good and filling. Not sad and unappetizing like other veggie burgers.
Read moreI was overjoyed when I saw they had chocolate vegan soft serve!! It was very delicious.
The cove restaurant is next to a laundromat. Limited parking. Come early on weekend nights to beat the crowd, right after my family placed our order, the line behind us dramatically grew.
Although happy cow only lets you rate 4 starts for not completely vegan restaurants, I appreciate when restaurants aren’t fully vegan, but offer a variety of delicious vegan options.

Pretty good - Edit
Their veggie burger was pretty good, nothing too special but still tasty. I got the kids meal veggie burger because it was cheaper. Their vegan chocolate ice cream is also really good. Just wish they didn’t serve so much animal product, but that’s pretty much most restaurants.

Amazing - Edit
This place is amazing! Not only do they have delicious #vegan food, they have a wide variety of entrees so you can come here with your non-vegan friends and family. There's indoor and outdoor seating, a fire pit when it's cold out, live bands that play, a playground for kids plus it's dog friendly! I loved it and me and my friend stayed for hours. Warning though, it gets very busy and the parking lot gets full fast. We showed up at 6pm on a Saturday and barely got parking spots. Aim for much earlier if you're coming on the weekend!

Okay - Edit
The food wasn’t amazing but it wasn’t bad either it was just kind of okay. I had the Captain Jack Sandwich with an order of sweet potato fries. The fries are great, really recommend them the sandwich on the other hand was just okay and for $9 I expected a little more. I wouldn’t really go back if I am being honest there are better options elsewhere.

Great food & venue - Edit
I.love.the.cove. The venue is great. I appreciate them offering live music. The food is consistently delicious. I usually order the vegan bacon burger or the captain jack (bbq jackfruit) with sweet potato fries and vegan chipotle mayo. The ginger ale is fresh. It gets pretty busy during lunch hour and the weekends. The staff is friendly and service is pretty quick. Definitely one of my go-to spots.

Cool place! - Edit
The Cove had an indoor area but all the action was outside. They had a children's play area and was dog friendly. I was a little disappointed by the food. My boyfriend (meat eater) and I ordered the chips and salsa for a starter. The chips were a little stale. For my meal, I got the vegan bacon cheeseburger with sweet potato fries. It was alright, I tasted a lot of mustard and the "bacon" was just something turned to a crisp. The patty fell apart mid way through eating. The sweet potato fries were amazing. I also got a temper taco to try and share with my boyfriend. Again, it was just alright. My boyfriend got the seafood sampler which was a fish taco and a shrimp taco. He just didn't like whatever the shrimp was cooked in but both were just okay. Overall, we really liked the place but the food was kind of disappointing.
