Culinary Delights Await: Our Best-Loved Menu Offerings

Bibimbap

Embodying the epitome of the perfect balance between taste and nutrition, Bibimbap is a traditional Korean dish that has stood the test of time. With roots tracing back to the annals of Korean kings as "bubimbap", it was once a light meal fit for royalty. Today, it is one of the most beloved and popular dishes in Korea, known for its harmonious blend of various ingredients in one delectable bowl. At Coconut Bar & Kitchen, we are proud to bring to you our own take on this iconic dish. Our Bibimbap is made with the finest and freshest ingredient.

And with three tantalising options to choose from - chicken, beef, and vegetable - you can customise your Bibimbap to suit your personal taste preferences. Whether you're a fan of the classic flavour of tender chicken or the rich, savoury taste of juicy beef, we've got you covered. And for our vegetarian diners, the vegetable option is packed with flavour and nutrition.

Pad Thai Noodle

Pad Thai Noodle is a classic Thai dish that is sure to tantalise your taste buds! This delectable dish features rice noodles in a sweet tamarind sauce, paired with the crunch of Choi sum, the freshness of bean sprouts, the pungent flavour of red onions, and the richness of egg. To top it off, the dish is finished with a sprinkle of roasted peanuts and a squeeze of lime for an added zing of flavour. Our Pad Thai Noodle is a true celebration of the best of Thai cuisine, offering a harmonious balance of sweet, sour, salty, and spicy flavours.

In addition to the Bibimbap and Pad Thai Noodle, we have a wide variety of dishes to choose from in our main menu. From succulent seafood to hearty meat dishes, we have something for everyone. However, we understand that some customers may have specific dietary requirements and allergies, and we are committed to accommodating those needs. If you have any allergies or food preferences, please let our server know and we will do our best to make your dining experience with us a pleasant one.

Coconut Bar & Kitchen supports Berkshire Vision, a local charity.

We at Coconut Bar & Kitchen are driven by a desire to support the local community and are passionate about helping people and projects. We want to give something back to our community.

When we heard about Berkshire Vision we wanted to help and build awareness for the charity that supports and delivers services to blind and partially sighted children and adults in Berkshire.

Blindness, or a visual impairment can often reduce a child’s self-esteem and increase their sense of isolation and fear. Most attend mainstream school but cannot participate in all the activities and have limited opportunity to spend time with other partially sighted children who understand their difficulties.

For Berkshire Visions, having funds and support would help to provide safe and comfortable journeys to these key events and workshops.

Throughout the year Berkshire Vision have a comprehensive timetable of activities available for their members, such as trips to Legoland, pizza making parties, Zoo trips and sensory touch tours.

These experiences are fundamental for developing confidence and self-esteem, enabling the children to develop the pivotal social skills that are essential for later life.

We met with some of the team from Berkshire Vision and talked about how we could help. We have decided from November we will DONATE £1 from every SUNDAY BRUNCH and volunteer to help with activities.

Come and enjoy SUNDAY BRUNCH! Join in and help us raise funds for the charity so blind and partially sighted children and adults can take part in activities others take for granted.

BOO! Ready for a SPOOKY GOOD TIME?

It’s that time of the year again, when witches, vampires and monsters roam the streets, when windows are decorated with scary grinning faces and spider webs are hanging from every corner.

Coconut is ready for the spooky season, and with Halloween just around the corner we’ve got some frightening, yet exciting things planned at our very own HAUNTED HOSPITAL! 

We’ve stirred up some tasty elixirs to delight all of our patients (guests). By specially mixing spirits (geddit?) and potions in our chilling cauldron, we’ve created a GHOSTLY COCKTAIL - “Call Me A Doctor”. Oh my! A dose of this will give you chills!

Who doesn’t love dressing up and giving their friends a fright? Turn up in the scariest, most outlandish, downright weirdest Haunted Hospital themed costume, and you could nab yourself a wicked BEST DRESSED PRIZE!

Step into our Haunted Hospital for not one, but TWO NIGHTS if you’re up for an eerie and spine-chilling dining and party atmosphere.

THURS 31st Oct – Spooky Cocktails / Live DJ / Open ‘till 1AM
FRI 1st Nov – Fancy Dress / Spooky Cocktails / Live DJ / Open ‘till 3AM

Are you brave enough to enter Coconut’s very own HAUNTED HOSPITAL?!

 It’s time to face your fears...
MUAHAHAHAHAHA!

A Midsummer Night King’s Dream

This Friday 21st June marks the Northern Hemisphere summer solstice. The longest day and shortest night of the year. The day when the sun is at its highest point in the sky giving us the longest period of daylight. A day that is also known as Midsummer.

And, as we all wonder how we got to Midsummer when summer seems to be having trouble starting, here at our cocktail bar and restaurant we have created some fabulous new cocktails to take your mind off the weather. Inspiration has been taken from the world of fantasy. The new additions are exciting on the taste buds and served up with a generous helping of drama. 

From Left to Right: Vice Admiral Smoker, Devil Fruit, Smoke Pot Everyday, Night King

Come and spend the longest day of the year with us at Coconut Bar and Kitchen. We can’t promise more hours in the day but we can promise fabulous cocktails, delicious food, happy hour from 4:30pm – 7pm and a live DJ from 9:30pm through to closing at 2am.

If you’re busy on Friday then come and see us anytime.
