Coconut Bar & Kitchen

The Thai food here is nice, though fairly basic it covers the classics without many surprises. Where the place really shines is the drinks: both the cocktails and mocktails are well-crafted and flavorful. A good spot if you're looking for a casual meal with some great beverages.

Just arrived from the states and wanted to grab a bite. Ordered the pornstar martini a house favorite and the pork belly bites. The waiter came with my drinks and a shot glass of Prosecco. But when he placed it on the table no explanation of what it was. Had to ask what was in the shot glass, which I thought was weird. The martini had passion fruit purée which added a nice flavor to the cocktail. The pork belly bites were sweet and spicy at the same time. Some of the pieces were a little thought. The succulent pieces were more pleasing. The service is slow even though not busy. Sat in the bar area so they have you pay immediately even though I said I would probably order another drink. It was happy hour so saved some money. Wanted to try the curry but I was no longer hungry after my app. May give it another try while visiting.

Love the vibe of the place. The food is outstanding! It took a little while to be served, and everyone who came in after us seemed to be served immediately given free prawn crackers, which left some people in my group feeling annoyed the young lady who eventually served us was polite and friendly, as were most of the staff, just the first lady who served us and brought out the majority of our food seemed a bit unfriendly. My friend asked if we could eat outside, and we were told we'd have to pay for everything first. Besides that, the cocktails were banging, I wish we'd had time to order more, but we were going on to somewhere else.

I came here with my church friends for supper after the service. The food was great but it took much too long to arrive and the staff members’ knowledge of English isn’t terribly good, which meant that in error I ended up paying for everybody’s drinks instead of just mine, and the group had to reimburse me.

The atmosphere was amazing as soon as we walked in and was faciliated by the lovely ambient lighting and lively chatter throughout the restaurant and bar. Luckily, we managed to get a walk in reservation for eight and I thank the staff for accomadating our difficult circumstances. The food was delicious, I highly recommend the chicken don! It was packed with flavour and a decent size portion. However, options were slightly limited in regards to sides. However, unfortunately our experience with staff was mediocre at best. They had trouble hearing us sometimes due to the noisy surroundings and seemed to quickly lose patience. I’m aware it is a fast paced environment but rushing people to order and seeming peeved when they aren’t ready yet is not a welcoming attitude to experience. It really did impact my rating of the restaurant as I felt unvalued as a customer especially as there is a service charge added on to the bill and I would expect excellent service if that is the case. On the other hand, there were a few members of staff that made sure we enjoyed our food and checked in on us which boosts my rating. Overall, would recommend to others but would advise them on the attitudes on the staff and to perhaps check and have their order ready beforehand.
