You Don’t Have to Go Far to Feel Far Away

Welcome to The Cove Bay-Side Restaurant and Tavern. We invite you to enjoy a unique dining experience on Erie’s Bayfront with our nautically inspired decor, a carefully crafted menu, and an unbelievable view of Presque Isle Bay. With both indoor and outdoor seating right next to the bay, we want to be your destination of choice when you “just want to get away from it all” but without having to go far.

A New Era

As we make our way into the summer of 2025 we are refocused on the experience we want to offer you, our customer. Our new management team is looking forward to this new era and nothing has gone untouched, from the decor, to the service, and especially the menu.

The Tiki

Feeling in the mood for something more tropical? Our patio is home to The Tiki, an authentic, traditionally constructed 40′ x 50′ tiki hut. Complete with live music and a full bar, it has everything you need to start feeling that island spirit.
