Popped into Coco Black Waikuku with a crew of six — what a spot! Super cosy vibes, the fire was going and made it feel real homely. Staff were awesome, super friendly and onto it. The food was next level — big portions, looked mean as, and tasted even better. Proper feed! Couldn’t fault a thing. Cheers team, we’ll be back for sure!

Met with some friends early Sunday morning and stayed for 2 plus hours enjoying the coffee, food, and warm, friendly, inviting atmosphere. The staff were welcoming and the service quick and on point. On this occasion our server was relatively new to the job - but keen and nothing was a problem. The meals were well presented and the portions genreous. We've been there a few times - you go back when it that good eh!
