Finding El Coco was as easy as just looking for the big pub on corner. The colourful, tropical-themed fit-out was inviting but we couldn't help but reminisce about the good old days when it used be the Exchange Hotel.
For a Thursday night it was surprisngly empty. This was good
news for us, as it meant there was plenty of lounges or large group tables to choose from plus service was very quick. The bartenders were quite friendly with good knowledge and recommendations. Very pedestrian we thought.
The Caribbean inspired menu was appropriate but limited in choice.. In saying that, we would definitely recommend the chicken sliders and pulled beef nachos which were good value at $10...
If you're lucky enough to be there during happy hour its worth trying their $5 Cuba Libre's. A Libre is basically a rum & coke with lime, but instead of using a lovely highball glass, they served it in metal cup. Not happy jan, we're not five! Still tasty though so I guess when they're only charging $5 they can do what like...
Most of us were pretty happy with the $5 happy hour, however, apart from the Libre's, wine was average and there was only $5 schooners of boags. Soooo, if you don't like Boags, then bad luck...
Overall we were pretty satisfied with our visit to El Coco so why not grab some friends and
