Well loved cocktail bar to re-open in Newport this week
After a brief hiatus and an exciting internal revamp, Cocos is ready to welcome back its loyal returning customers and new faces with a fresh look, electrifying music, and a new brunch offering.
Cocos was once the go-to destination for urban music lovers, spinning the best tracks in old-school R&B and Hip Hop.
In an exciting new addition, Cocos will also be dedicating the last Saturday of every month to a vibrant Reggae night, promising to transport patrons to sunnier shores with infectious beats and good vibes.
Their new brunch cocktail menu adds a delicious new dimension to the Cocos experience, offering Thai sides that are freshly prepared and delivered directly from Newport Market's renowned Kinn Kinn, ensuring a unique and flavourful culinary journey.
The venue will also introduce Newport's first-ever all-you-can-eat crisps brunch, including cocktails, which is sure to be a must-attend event happening once a month, allowing visitors to indulge in a satisfying and nostalgic feast of the best crunchy snacks.
Alisun, general manager of Cocos, said: "We've been working hard behind the scenes to give Cocos a mini revamp and infuse it with renewed energy,"
"We can't wait to unveil our new look and welcome everyone back for what promises to be an unforgettable Season 2. We're confident that our blend of classic urban sounds, the exciting new Reggae nights, our delicious brunch menu, and of course, Newport's first all-you-can-eat crisps brunch, will make Cocos the ultimate destination for good times in Newport."
Beyond the main bar area, Cocos boasts a versatile upstairs event room that is perfect for a wide range of occasions. The venue extends a warm invitation to anyone looking to book their private party, from birthdays to celebrations of all kinds.
Cocos is currently seeking collaborations with local DJs and artists who wish to host their own events, providing a platform for Newport's vibrant creative community.
In a truly unique offering, patrons at Cocos can enjoy a selection of house spirits that are distilled at their very own, locally based distillery, Spirit of Wales, situated in Maesglas. This commitment to local production ensures a high-quality and distinctive drinking experience.
