Fairly decent french cuisine restaurant. The starters were okay, and I particularly enjoyed the short ribs in the beef bourguignon sauce. I would've loved to see a better choice of classic french desserts and more interesting cheese options on the dessert menu.

Brilliant food, good portion sizes.

I cannot iterate enough how much we love, loved, this cafe/bistro. It was exactly like being in France - took me right back to the Rue Sufflot or Ile in the summertime. The lunch menu was fantastic - free appetizers brought by delightful staff - piping hot soup and delicious tomato salad that were themselves great and generous. The mains blew us away. Duck confit the way it’s meant to be, with port and cherry—perfection!!! My wife had a generous portion of delicious monkfish. Ambiance, atmosphere, cold food, warm delicacies, a full bar where you can design your own drink. Spectacularly comfortable - we will now be coming down here for dinner from London every month! We just love it. You won’t regret coming to this awesome place that really puts in best efforts with quality results.

This place is a real hidden gem! We've been there twice now and both times the food was amazing. The owner knows his stuff and can tell you all about each dish. And if you're gluten-free, don't worry - their chef can make anything gluten-free. It's so nice to be able to go out to lunch and not have to worry about whether or not the food is safe for you. My husband and I love this place and we'll definitely be going back again and again. Thanks for a great experience! 🥂❤️

Coco Retro is a charming French restaurant located in the heart of Royal Tunbridge Wells. The restaurant has a warm and inviting atmosphere, with a cozy dining room and a friendly staff. The menu features classic French dishes, all made with fresh, seasonal ingredients. I recently had the pleasure of dining at Coco Retro with my family. We started our meal with an assortment of appetizers, including escargot baked under a garlic butter. While this escargot was far from the best I have ever had, it was cooked well and the garlic was not too overpowering, overall coming in above average but not awesome. The same can be said for the other appetizers we tried. The main courses however were a different story! I tried the lamb shank and it is a must-try! The shank is slow-cooked in a rich red wine sauce until it is fall-apart tender. The meat is so tender that it can be easily cut with a fork. The sauce is flavorful and the mashed potatoes are a perfect pairing for the shank and sauce. The desserts continued to impress us after our main courses were over. I opted to try the classic puff pastry dessert and to my excitement it was executed extremely well. The puff pastry was flaky and light, and filled with a sweet custard and topped with fresh berries, altogether creating a great flavor profile. Overall, we all thoroughly enjoyed our meal at Coco Retro. The food was delicious, the service was excellent, and the prices were reasonable. I highly recommend Coco Retro to anyone looking for a great dining experience.
