Coco Tang Oriental Cafe in Nottingham

Fantastic food, you won't get any better than this around the area. Atmosphere is cozy and beautifully designed.

Amazing place, absolutely delicious food! Highly recommend!

When I experienced a poor Deliveroo experience, Magda ensured that the situation was resolved despite the issue being with Deliveroo and not Coco Tang. Magda went above and beyond to provide a favourable outcome. Thank you Magda!

Lovely food, great service and very reasonable.

Absolutely love this place. Delicious food and awesome cocktails. They always have some specials on the menu, which add variety. Our go-to starter is the soft-shell crab. The terrace has a cool vibe.

Yeah, good. Baby squid stuffed with minced pork = vegan nightmare/ omnivore's delight. Just the right degree of chilli piquancy, contrasting textures: excellent. And hearty, with accompanying rice and veg plate. We'd shared a soft shell crab starter, and its batter was perfect, though maybe the crab a bit squishy (from frozen, I guess: ya not gonna find one in the Trent). We had a bottle of wine which was a bit supermarket for thirty quid - mebs the wine list is not their specialty. But then the cake, which redeemed any reservations on the overall five stars (I mean there's no way the place is a four hereabouts but margins, margins) but anyhow yeah, the orange and almond New Year cake: awesome, arresting, flavourful and delicate. Staff charming, funny and attentive. And I got more cake to take home, pictured below 😋🐷😝👍🏻

Nice place looking forward to trying other menu items

Been meaning to visit here for a while, finally came today. Seated and served quickly. Food was delicious. Will definitely return 😊

Can be a little busy and loud at times but generally a good place to eat.

Excellent food as always. Exceptional service this evening as Deliveroo only delivered half the order then Coco Tang went the extra mile to make it right.

Good food and service, we went at a busy time for a late lunch over the weekend. Cool interiors, although I wish I knew there was an upstairs at the time of visiting, as it seems a lot more spacious and open from photos/videos I’ve seen.

Amazing food and even better drinks. Great atmosphere, love to come back here.

very disappointed !! took my daughter and her mates for drinks celebrating her birthday. On checking receipts for credit card statement and just seen that they add a service charge - for buying drinks at the Bar !! I can understand it if its table service - but not when we're buying and carrying our own drinks. Sneaky - will be going to the many other bars in notts next time. Check your bill if you go here

Came for the first time for club night on Tuesday. Whole venue was perfect and the barstaff in particular Olivia who managed to serve 4 people at once whilst under pressure. What a great place to come to!!

Great food. Really interesting range of drinks and deserts including ube! Good decor, mint green theme, comfy seating and good lighting. Tasteful Christmas decorations. Good service.

A must see in Notts. The food is so good and authentic and the atmosphere is so good.

Brilliant place , delicious food , very quick service 🥰🥰🥰 highly recommended 👌

My daughter took me to Coco Tang on my latest visit to see her in Nottingham. It is now my new favourite place to eat and my new favourite food! The lemongrass and ginger chicken is out of this world! WoW! The surroundings and atmosphere are brilliant and the staff are absolutely lovely too! I can’t wait to go back 🙏💝

Food ok (seafood plater) a bit pricey The ceiling was leaking when we visited

What a beautiful place! Fantastic atmosphere with truly fabulous food. The cakes alone are individual pieces of art. Highly recommend!

Have been to coco tang so many times and it is amazing every time! Food is always delicious, drinks are always great! The humming bird is my favourite cocktail! Would definitely recommend this place to anyone!

I went to Coco Tang for dinner but we had drinks first in the bar downstairs. The cocktails are incredible and very creative, incorporating delicious flavours and visual elements. I got a Fight Club cocktail with an edible Fight Club soap 🧼 The atmosphere is great, I loved the decor downstairs especially the retro cinema seating. The food was great, especially the dessert Halo Halo, but I have had better beef pho (this one was still tasty though)

Lovely. Really nice restaurant with delicious food and great staff. Recommended.

dropped in for lunch and was seated at a table in a wonderful room, the décor was amazing and a perfect setting for the food. The freshness of everything was wonderful and so well put together, will be back for more

Great food, staff were lovely and really authentic feel. Will definitely visit again!

Preciosa comida sabrosa y excelentes cócteles. Bonito ambiente y el personal muy amable y servicial. Dejé mi teléfono y fueron muy útiles.

Great food! Really atmosphere, and friendly service. Also got a table at Saturday lunch without booking and we only waited 10 minutes!

Lovely food. My first Vietnamese. Nice cosy restaurant, very welcoming and excellent service.

Quería darme un capricho este jueves por la tarde. Decidió ir a mi lugar favorito de todos los tiempos 'Coco Tang' Decidió probar esta increíble ginebra de aspecto, ¡guau que era bueno! Mi increíble plato de almuerzo era impresionante. Lleno de sabores increíbles. Una joya escondida de Nottingham para almorzar o cenar temprano. Recomiendo encarecidamente 10 / 10 👌

Food is great. A little on the pricier side. Don't agree with a mandated service charge. I typically tip 20-30% at a food establishment. But if it's mandated I will not add any extra.

Delicious food, excellent coffee, eclectic decor and all around charming. Their menu has changed some but still holds up!

The service was great! I’m not a huge coffee person so i chose the honeycomb coffee and it was one of the best i’ve had! I’d also recommend the ube cheesecake ;). I’ve been here multiple times and they are very consistent both with the amazing service they provide and the tasty food!!

Just a stunning place and fantastic food

Best independent Vietnamese Restaurant I’ve had in Nottingham The food is so wholesome and delicious and absolutely fantastic value for money! The staff are the sweetest people and the service for Dine in was amazing. Speedy tasty and healthy. Kully

Amazing service as always, the food was spot on.. one of my favourite restaurants in Nottingham. Always a friendly atmosphere and food never dissapoints Highly recommend cocotang

We had the mixed pho bo and spring rolls+fried beef rice noodles. The pho was too small, and the soup base is a bit too salty and full of MSG. As for the rice noodles, the spring roll is again too salty, and the sauces used in the noodles doesn’t have the sour taste I’m expecting it to have, making the dish much less fresher than I would’ve imagined. Overall not much value for money. Wanted to try the Thai milk tea, but it was sold out on the day.

Order a Pho and Spring Rolls. The Pho noodle was hard, feels raw and cheap. The noodle soup is salty and felt like MSG. The overall size of the Pho is small, completely not worth the money. Spring rolls were deep fried well, but the seasoning is way off, too salty. I end up completing the whole bottle of tap water and asked for more.

The best Pho boy this side of Hanoi, service is great atmosphere is Phonominal, a must visit, and make sure you have the Pho

Great experience, superb food, good value for money..we will be back x

Good food and drinks, a little on the expensive side but good food nevertheless

Precioso café que ofrece una selección de platos pequeños asiáticos, fideos y platos de arroz. Estaba ocupado incluso un miércoles a la hora del almuerzo

We had come across this place while looking at places to eat on tiktoc. Absoloutly over the moon we went. We visited in the day and had coffee and cakes, Beautiful. We decided to go again in the evening for food and I'm so glad we did. Atmosphere was fantastic and the food was stunning. Can't wait to make our annual trip to Nottingham so we can revisit this wonderful quirky resturant.

Matcha latte with coconut milk - best one I have had !!! I’m addicted.

Went for lunch with friends and had a few of the starters and desserts. Good food, quick service, lovely decor and a nice atmosphere. Highly recommend.

Just wow, a must visit, visited two times in last three months and both times the food was impeccable,

I used to really like eating here. The food was tasty and staff super efficient. I particularly appreciated the effort the young woman, front of house, went to ensure I had slice of pandan cake but after going back and two other occasions, things changed. My favourite dish, bbq pork ribs, became a side dish at more or less the same price. On the first of the above occasions, the ribs were so burnt that they had to be sent back and on the second, they were not tender. Sadly, CCT is no longer one of my favourite places to eat.

Nuestro uni hijo recomendó este bar, y sin duda aumentamos un poco la edad media. Sin embargo, nunca una vez se sintió fuera de lugar, el personal era brillante y no levantó ninguna ceja o dar ninguna impresión de que podríamos haber estado perdidos. Sobre todo los cócteles eran geniales, el personal dedicado, los chicos agradables en la puerta, y un ambiente fabuloso y zumbado con gran música que nos hizo sentir jóvenes y reminiscentes de nuestros propios días uni. Muy agradable!

Love this place. Fantastic food and service as always. Sat in the atrium on a lovely sunny evening, it was excellent

Loved the squid with pork stuffing.

Nice atmosphere, lots of greenery and food tastes great. will certainly go again!

Unique multi level restaurant, cafe and bar. If the weather is nice try to sit upstairs in the courtyard. Great selection of cocktails as well as a fantastic food menu.

Excellent Vietnamese food in a really atmospheric setting. Food was authentic and generous and the staff welcoming and attentive. Very good value

Very nice food and friendly staff

I used to love Coco Tang until they have treated me awfully during the lockdown. When restaurants were allowed to open, I did not have to wear the mask due to my medical condition (being exempt). I was a key worker myself and was looking forward to having a meal in one of my favourite restaurants, when the waiter started questioning me about my health condition and asking me to show him the proof I did not need a mask. They have made me feel absolutely awful and I ended up leaving in tears. I messaged them to make a complaint a few times and was being ignored without anyone acknowledging the impact their behaviour/treatment had upon me. Would love to return, but as they have absolutely ignored me and my complaint, I will not be going back…

Wow, this place is great! Visited with my friend for a quick bite and can't wait to go back - the food envy seeing all the food for the other tables! We ordered drinks a starter each and a cake - the menu is clear and really interesting dishes to try. Look, this place is a bit pricer but definitely worth it and very authentic. Be aware they do add 10% service charge straight to your bill but the service is very good so I'm not complaining.

Not been here for a few years but it’s still as good as ever! We sat outside upstairs where you can see them cooking. I never knew the outside space was there! Food/service all good. Will hopefully be back more now I know it’s dog friendly!

Excellent food, great service. The place is a little small with limited seating.

Fantastic food and awesome cocktails

Incredible food. Good venue. Ok service. Horrendous prices (compared with the same level of quality in Notts).

Peach black tea was good but not worth the price (£6) and they put too much ice in the glass.

I have been to Coco Tang twice in the past month now, it is such a beautiful place. I love the garden area upstairs + the indoor space next to it with that window looking out onto the garden. The cocktails are unique, they taste refreshing. I got the bamboo basket sharer both times I came, it was so tasty and the vegetarian spring rolls are addictive!! I have never tasted spring rolls quite like them, I don’t eat them unless they’re from Coco Tang. Most of the staff are friendly, there was just one female who works there that has a bad attitude but I didn’t catch her name. The last time I came, it was a gentleman who saw to us and he was so nice! Would come back again, my advice for room for improvement is to make sure some brush up on their customer service skills! One lets the others down. ☺️

This place looks great and has fantastic cakes and patisserie. The drinks are nice if a bit sweet. The coffee is very good. Food from the menu is disappointing and lacking in any real flavour, although well presented. Everything is very stylish.

Called in with a friend 7/7/24 on spur of the moment and so glad we did: Soft shell crabs were excellent with a flavoursome batter, Seared beef and mango salad was vibrant, fresh and full of contrasting flavours Sticky pork ribs were probably some of the best short ribs in Nottingham fell of the bone and juicy yet delightful Portion sizes were plentiful With a couple of tasty cocktails thrown in, well worth the £64 definitely worth visiting and we will be back. Seating area at back is lovely to sit in and watch the kitchen. Service charge added to billl but waitress was thoughtful enough to explain it was there but optional; Bonus points for that!

Atmosphere was a bit noisy which made conversation across the table difficult. However explaining to a staff member that I would find sitting on a stool impossible she went out of her way to get me a chair with a back. Also asked the waiter about about allergies and went to make sure my cocktail choice was ok for me

Good place for a dinner. Food is delicious and service is good. Prices are okay.

Lovely place,really nice decor,cool bar. Good atmosphere. Great cocktails. We had the ginger and lemongrass chicken which was delicious but needed a little bit more sauce to have with the rice. Soft shell crab was perfect, Asian style salad fresh and tasty! My son had pork ribs,said they were really good.

I have to say, my friend and I just wanted to get away from the hum drum of daily life...cooking, cleaning, supporting the family. We stopped here. I can say...it felt like I was on holiday. The sun was shining, the food was amazing and the cocktails took me to another level. I will be back - probably for a special occasion, to ensure it stays as special as I felt it was. The best.

Great service and well made tasty food

The food is not fresh enough and the menu is not very selective

Delicious food and great ambience as always!

One of my favourite places i’ve ever been to eat. It has a lovely atmosphere and some great food, everything is so well thought out down to the tiny menus

The food is very nice and some of it is really authentic. The venue itself is really nicely done out and really feels like you could be in Hanoi. The terrace is really nice to in. We had spring rolls, tofu in tomato sauce and pineapple rice, all delicious.

A great place for food and drinks. Comfortable and fun

I was served by Sam she was so friendly and gave us such nice recommendations will be back to try desserts soon! 🙂

Disappointed with our visit here as had high expectations. The food and drinks look good but unfortunately we’re generally quite bland, very average tasting L, at best and overpriced. My beef broth was extremely bland and for some reason the lime wedges and bean shoots were served separately. I guess this maybe adds a little interest to the look but the beef tasted as though it had been boiled in plain water and the broth, while advertised as having been stewed for multiple hours, was a major disappointment, more like a stock cube for 5 minutes. The stuffed squid was a bit more flavoursome but not that special and the veggie rice vermicelli hardly had any veg at first though this was rectified after some reluctance. Initially we were give an outside table in direct sun and although there were awnings above, the staff said they couldn’t draw them as it may upset other customers. So why they were here, if not to shade the sun, I don’t know. While I understand this is a trendy themed restaurant and why people may like to come here, you’d expect to at least have a decent seat to sit on instead of a stool or if you’re lucky, a bench with small cushioned back rest. Annoyingly the main courses arrived before the starters too, the. 2 minutes later all the mains arrived, so very cramped on the small table we had. Overall, I personally think if you eat out to enjoy great food, then this ISN’T the place for you. If you like somewhere that’s a bit trendy and not too fussed how the food tastes or what you pay for it then you may enjoy it here.

We spent a pleasant hour drinking coffee and sharing a purple ice-cream. I have spent ten years searching for sweet potato ice-cream in the UK, and tonight I found the best version of it in the UK. Chilling out with a friend, enjoying the evening air, and excellent coffee, this is Coco Tang, best Nottingham has to offer.

The food was delicious and the service was 10/10. The environment and decor are very nice, the upstairs terrace is a perfect place on hot days. Wish they had more vegan options, upon checking the allergen info, the vegetarian dishes could be easily veganised! Such a shame. In terms of portions, they were not so generous for the price. But it was a good experience.

Delicious food! The squid, the tofu and spring roll noodle bowl, the vegetable vermicelli (amazing!!), the morning glory (amazing as well), and the apple mint and cucumber drink was tasty too.

Lovely food as always, great atmosphere

Hello to all who read and write reviews. Two words about this Vietnamese Restaurant. The food is very tasty. There are also great desserts. The staff is extremely kind. The service is very good.

Delicious food, short wait even if it was full, kind staff, beautiful atmosphere. I really enjoyed my visit and I'll make sure it's not my last one. I had the lemongrass chicken on rice and it was utterly delicious, sweet and the barbecue taste was amazing. My husband had mixed meat pho, delicious as well, maybe a tiny bit too delicate (but honestly, sometimes you need something more delicate and it's good to have the option)

What an amazing place! Relaxed atmosphere, amazing food! There's a beautiful bar below!

Came here for lunch on my birthday and it was amazing! Been before for drinks but the food was much better than I was expecting 😁

Beautiful outdoor seating area, exquisite drinks and delicious cakes. (I recommend the ube and banana milkshake!!! <3)

Great afternoon of drinking cocktails. The cocktails were lovely and great service at the tablet too.

Great cocktails loved the BBQ Chicken and Rice !

Loved their ice coffee. Food was really nice too.

Great place with great range of food and drinks. We visited for coffee while shopping in the City and unbelievable whe you come inside and see the decor and layout. Well worth a visit

Lovely place; excellent food; good service; fabulous decor. Lots of space, is gorgeous. relaxed with a cool vibe, the staff are really sweet. Drinks are expensive- but they are really good. Lovely pots of tea.

One of my favourite meals in Nottingham. Really enjoyed many visits! Great food, great cocktails and great atmosphere! Very much recommended if you like Vietnamese food, cake and coffee!

It's small plates but the food is rich, you don't need as much as you think! It's a must go for the Nottingham food scene.

Had an amazing lunch last week! All the food is so tasty and I love the Vietnam coffee so much!

My family and I are huge fans of Coco Tang for their delicious and authentic Vietnamese cuisine. My personal favorites include the bún bò trộn nam bộ, which I love to pair with their Vietnamese drip coffee. Additionally, I enjoy their spicy fried chicken wings and the S&P squid. Their desserts are amazing as well, and we particularly love their matcha and white cacao cheesecake.

Great spot! Lovely arty decor with a rustic feel. Excellent food at reasonable price. Great value. Service was friendly, efficient and welcoming. Will definitely visit again when in Notts!

A real experience, well worth the visit, great service, lovely downstairs bar and the food was amazing

Really excellent quality food - I had a mango salad and salt and pepper squid - perfect. A short menu, and it was a busy peak time and I had a short wait to be seated. Not the cheapest, but no automatic service charge. A great place for a treat.

Love the HK style, and foods are great

Absolutely incredible food, attentive staff and a nice relaxed atmosphere. Best Asian food I’ve had in years. 10/10 I fully recommend the bamboo sharer

Very good Vietnamese restaurant!

Lovely restaurant in the middle of the city, the portion a bit small
