The Cove Dining Co

I would love to recommend this place but I’m afraid I can’t. After more than 4 years of loyalty coming to this place because of the great indoor and outdoor space I can no longer bring myself to support a business that does not respect or welcome their customers. I have a young child and our mothers group has been meeting here since the kids were 10 weeks old. They are over 3 now. Kids always need their kids specific snacks but we always buy coffees, baby cinos and food. However I was rudely told that I was not allowed to feed my child fruit from her lunch box because “we don’t allow lunch boxes here. They are too messy”. Mate - if you can’t deal with mess, mums and children in your supposedly family friendly cafe then you are in the wrong business. My friends and I have had enough of the multiple rude interactions with the owner and we won’t be back. We will take our business elsewhere where we are made to feel welcome.

It seemed an extreme inconvenience for the staff to have to serve us. Service was barely civil.

Had the most amazing High Tea event here on their picturesque balcony overlooking the gardens. My MOH organised it, and couldn’t have picked a better spot! Gorgeous setting and amazing food! Best scones! The staff were second to none. Champers and great espresso coffee to top it off! Lots of compliments from all who attended. Highly recommend this place for any event. 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
