A method of manufacturing a light emitting device includes: mounting light emitting elements on a collective substrate; arranging a first protruding member surrounding the light emitting elements; arranging a second protruding member between the light emitting elements; forming a cover member covering an upper end of the second protruding member, a lateral surface of each of the light emitting elements in a region surrounded by the first protruding member; and singulating the light emitting devices by cutting the cover member, the second protruding member, and the collective substrate at a portion including the second protruding member. The second protruding member is harder than the cover member. An upper end of the second protruding member is located lower than that of the first protruding member but higher than the upper surface of each of the light emitting elements.
