If you're looking for something truly unique in Jacksonville, The Cove Social Club is such a hidden…read moregem! Located in a 101-year-old building that used to be an A&P grocery store, this space perfectly blends history, creativity, and community. I love that so much of the original architecture has been preserved -- and the fact that it was designed by a woman architect back in the day makes it even more special. The Cove offers so much: daily coffee service, cooking and cake-decorating classes in "The Lab," yoga and meditation on Wellness Wednesdays, Social Sundays focused on mindfulness and connection, and even Art & Wine nights where you can sip, snack, and paint while listening to live music. They're also about to open Sticks & Stones, a private cigar club next door that will be available to members -- it's going to be such a great addition to the experience. The next membership cohort begins November 1st, and spots are limited to just 150 members to keep things community-focused and personal. They also host networking events, lectures, and business education workshops, so it's a great mix of social and professional. Whether you come for a coffee, an event, or to meet new people, The Cove Social Club is one of those places that makes you feel instantly connected and inspired.

It's not around a residence so you can be as loud and have as much fun as you want. The place includes A LOT of 8 foot tables, probably around 15-20 of them, and also metal fold-out chairs. All you need is table covers, food, and a DJ, and you're in business for a party!

Lucas was nice when we went to view the venue. Once we placed our deposit things changed. He was…read morevery difficult to work with. He kept nickel and dime ing us. The day before the wedding he was setting up tables and refused to let us decorate in advanced while he was there setting up stating he needed to be compensated for his time (he already had to be there) he was drinking our liquor at our open bar and kept hitting on our bartender (who told us he made her uncomfortable)even though he had a wedding ring on. Advised me that we needed to pay extra money to use their sound/lighting equipment and out of 100+ weddings only one used the Their own equipment and lost the ability to play sound. Our DJ had all his own equipment and preferred to use his. He advised us against it citing their equipment was pre wired and was the only equipment that works (trying to charge us extra to use) I declined and our DJ had no issue whatsoever. Lucas is greedy and money hungry as he is the only one who sets up and cleans up the events. He acted like he had a team of people but no it's just him and you must pay him more money if you need the venue longer than 8 hours. It was extremely inconsiderate of Lucas to not allow us to drop off our decor the night before while he was setting up tables. We didn't ask him to help us unload anything just showed up asking to drop off decor and was told I would have to compensate him for his time there even though he was already there. He's nice up front until he gets your money and then changes.

There were approx 150 guests and we had plenty of room, parking worked out, the facility was clean and ready to go. I highly recommend 6th Ave North for any event and you won't be disappointed.

The place is right by Jax beach, pretty easy to locate and see from the road. We arrived during cocktail hours so we got to mingle while sipping on some wine by the catering staff. The place has 3 restrooms so that was great since there were a round 150 guests. The owner seems to run a little behind on her schedule during our friend's wedding due to traffic and other hiccups throughout the beach ceremony. The garden was pretty Nice, they sell tons of flower seeds and plants right by the venue. We be a great time here and I would love to come back in the future for other events.

I do NOT recommend this place for your wedding reception. I booked the location almost 2 years in…read moreadvance and they cancelled on me with less than 12 hours notice. I had to figure out how to host my guests for a reception the night before the wedding. Most of the wedding day was us setting up an alternate location in a neighbor's back yard. I also paid for a day of coordinator to organize the vendors and they also cancelled that service and I had to find a new coordinator on the day of the wedding. They claimed that the last minute change was due to CDC guidelines related to Covid-19 and gatherings over 10 people. That guideline was in place 4 days prior to their last minute cancellation and they assured me the entire week leading up to the wedding that we were fine to proceed as long as I reduced my guest list to under 50 in compliance with the governor's orders at the time, which I did. Even 2 hours before the cancellation, I had dropped off all my items at the venue for the next night. They somehow thought that allowing my fiance and friends to haul their tables, chairs, linens and dishes to our home and back and use them for the reception made up for their last minute cancellation and told me repeatedly how they were bending over backwards for me. It was very disappointing service all around. I understand that Covid-19 presented unique challenges, but the way Coastal handled this was completely unprofessional. I would have expected the use of their items as a good will gesture for the last minute cancellation/stress and still allowed for us to re-schedule an event at the location on another date. Suffice it to say that I would not recommend them for your event.
