On The Rocks is a craft kitchen, sports bar, and live-music venue tucked inside The Cove Mall on JE Irausquin Boulevard between Palm Beach and Malmok. With a focused menu, well-poured cocktails, plenty of TVs for the games, and a regular live-music schedule, it’s become a Palm Beach go-to that consistently lands above the typical resort-strip sports bar.

About On The Rocks Craft Kitchen & Bar

Set inside The Cove dining and shopping complex (alongside CAYA House, L’Avenue, Patrizia’s, and Vue Rooftop), On The Rocks anchors the casual end of the lineup with a relaxed indoor-outdoor seating layout. The bar pours an excellent selection of craft beers and signature cocktails, the kitchen turns out well-executed shareable plates and elevated bar food, and the live-music lineup (typically weekend evenings) draws a steady local crowd.

Signature Dishes & Menu Highlights

Order the smash burger, the wings (multiple sauce options), the truffle fries, and the catch-of-the-day. The smoked old fashioned is a signature cocktail. The wing-and-beer specials during sports broadcasts are a strong value play. Sunday brunch (when running) features a great mimosa pour.
