The Cove Table

One kitchen, three menus, the morning catch

The menu is written after the market, so it changes more than most guests expect. What stays the same: the terrace, the view of the jetty, and a kitchen that would rather cook one thing well.

Can the kitchen handle dietary needs?

Yes. Tell us in your request or at check-in; the menu is rewritten around the market anyway, so changes are normal rather than special.

Do we need to reserve dinner?

Staying guests are seated first. For the Chef's Tasting a day's notice helps us plan; everything else is walk-in.

Hungry already?

Check dates and the kitchen will know you are coming.
