About Cove Tavern & Corker Cellars Sanctuary Cove

Cove Tavern pairs hearty pub staples with a retail bottle shop right next door, charging just a small corkage fee for boutique wines. Grab a bottle from Corker Cellars, trade your ticket at the bar for an ice bucket, and settle into covered outdoor tables. Regulars lean into hearty plates like Guinness and beef pie with mushy peas, beef nachos, and chicken risotto. While adults unwind to live acoustic music during relaxed Sunday afternoon deck sessions, kids have plenty of open grass and courtyard space out front to run around.

  • Boutique Cellar Wine Model: Pick any bottle from the attached boutique cellar and bring it to your table with glasses and an ice bucket for a minimal corkage fee.
  • Courtyard Play Lawn: Covered outdoor seating opens onto an open grass courtyard where children can play in plain sight.
  • Sunday Live Music Sessions: Casual outdoor deck seating sets the scene for chilled afternoon pints, pub plates, and weekend acoustic sets.

Before you head over

Practical advice on cellar corkage, courtyard seating, and arrivals

  • Bring Wine from Corker Cellars

    Buy a bottle from the adjoining bottle shop and present your ticket at the bar, where staff provide an ice bucket, wine glasses, and open it for a nominal corkage fee ($7–$10).

  • Secure an Outdoor Table for Kids

    Reserve or claim an outdoor patio table bordering the open front lawn so children can run around safely with scooters or bikes while you dine in clear sight.

  • Plan Ahead for Groups and Parking

    Large group tables are limited, so arrange reserved space ahead of time and utilise parking either directly behind the tavern or in the larger lot by the IGA.
