Pirate's Cove Tropical Bar & Grill

"Went on a family outing. Food was great the grilled cheese was amazing they had like 3 different cheeses and the fries reminded me of beer battered fries. The tilapia was tasty. My family loved the food too"

"First off, Kymber was so welcoming at the bar. Brie pretzels were awesome. Wings were great. Sweet Potato fries were AWESOME. The decor and location were so relaxing. GREAT PLACE TO VISIT."

"The mixed reviews on this place are on point. We got the calamari, chicken wings, grouper fingers, and cheeseburgers. The calamari and chicken wings are super greasy. And yes, the wings are breaded pretty thick, more than the usual. The grouper fingers were light and flaky. And a bit greasy. I do recommend this dish. My kids got the cheeseburgers. They liked them, but if I were going out for cheeseburgers this would not be my pick. Service. It was a little slow. Our waitress forgot my salad and my wife's water. I was overcharged for my margarita- it was supposed to be $4 margarita night. Waitress seemed disinterested in general. My recommendation- go here for drinks before dinner or after, and enjoy the atmosphere and live music. Skip the food and don't expect great service."

"Nice spot right on the water, in a marina. Tropical theme even having sand around the bar area! Service was friendly but slow. Our food took awhile and was served warm, but not hot which was unfortunate because everything tasted really good! We just wish it was hotter. My reuben was HUGE and had a ton of meat on it. We came on Saturday for lunch and they had live music which was a nice touch."

"Pirate's Cove Tropical Bar & Grill has been seasonally operating for 24 years on the Ohio River at the Four Seasons Marina. They are closed now for the season, but towards the very end of the summer my family and I stopped in for our first dining experience. There is no inside dining here, but nearly every seat has a roof overhead. The open air allows for you to view the yachts coming and going in the marina. There is a large bar and plenty of tables around the outskirts of the large space. A live band was playing during our visit near a sandy area that adds even more tropical island ambiance. For lunch I decided on the Cuban Classic with roasted pork loin topped with cheddar jack, peppers, and onions served hot pressed on Cuban style bread ($14.50). I also subbed in onion rings for $2 extra. The pork loin was well cooked and thick sliced. Aside from the bread this is not an authentic Cuban sandwich, but it was actually really good. Overall the prices are slightly higher than normal, but the views are hard to beat. Plus the quality of the food was great and there are plenty of choices on the extensive menu. We will likely be back again next summer."
