"A 40,000-square-foot, cabana-covered beach bar along the same scenic stretch featured yard games, bucket swings, a DJ pavilion, and multiple bars and opened to much acclaim in summer 2023. Per a statement from B Social Hospitality: “Due to unforeseen circumstances, The Cove’s short-term lease may come to an early close,” adding an exact date has not been announced. The closure appears to be partially induced by a fast-moving residential takeover of its prime real estate that formerly housed Bardo Brewing. B Social, the nightlife group behind other local projects, hopes to “reimagine and reintroduce The Cove in a new space in the future” and will “share more details as plans develop.”" - Tierney Plumb
