Review by Albert Cremin

The Cove on Castro is a cozy gem that feels like a step back in time with its historic charm!

I popped in for breakfast and was thrilled with how quickly my order of corned beef hash arrived - absolutely delicious! The atmosphere is casual yet inviting, perfect for solo dining or a brunch with friends.

I also loved that it’s wheelchair accessible, making it friendly for everyone. The sassy waitstaff adds a fun vibe to the experience. I can’t wait to come back and try their renowned clam chowder! 🍲✨.
