The Coconut Tree - Cardiff

Lovely friendly service ( and we could see how busy he was ) Good delicious

Friendly staff. Good music. Wasn’t very busy so there wasn’t much atmosphere. We got sat in a strange side room too which didn’t add. Nice cocktails.

Food is AMMMMMAAAAAAZZZING good vegan menu, nice staff, nice cocktails, 50% off, literally nothing not to like

Rice in hard lumps, hopper's sold as a must...when it was cold and bland and hard to get attention to pay bill. And maybe I'm too old but bench seats are so uncomfortable. Rest food better... The mango curry and devil pineapple were great.

Fantastic food, ambience, price & staff! No chickpeas, which was devastating but the dahl curry & coconut sambol were, as always, to die for! Thanks so much, you guys. You never fail to impress (& I've taken LOTS of friends there to try my favourite food on the planet - Sri Lankan!)

Great food and service! Will definitely be back the next time I’m in Cardiff.

Great location, service, food and cocktails. We will return in September :-)

Really enjoyed eating at the Coconut Tree and will definitely be going again - was a great meal and great atmosphere!

The staff were very friendly and helpful, the food was amazing. Will definitely be back again.

I stumbled across this place when doing some research for where to get a vegan lunch in Cardiff. It was recommended on the Facebook page ‘Eat out vegan, Wales’. Coconut Tree has a tapas type format, so we chose 3 dishes each plus their pancake-type signature dish wrap. The food was a journey of discovery and tasted great. Prices were very reasonable for all those fresh ingredients and the service was great too. We can’t wait to visit again on our next trip to the capital.

I have recently visited the coconut tree before with a group of 6 and we had a fantastic meal and evening, I thought it would be a great place to bring my partner, i booked in advance and was looking forward to another great meal, unfortunately when the food was brought out it was cold, my partner let the team know and they did take our meal away and replaced the food, some of it was hot and some were still cold for the meals that they were, we did eat our meal and then paid and left upon leaving the manager did pull us to one side and refunded our food costs , a nice gesture but unfortunately we will not be returning. I do hope they sort out what happened as it could be a great place.

The interior is discusting. Menu is nothing and doesn’t have prices on there either. Ended up walking out

Delicious food and great service. Menu explained well. Only negative was our was table upstairs so no atmosphere and horrible outlook

Place is nice, sat outside at one of those huts. I was REALLY disappointed with the food though. The only thing I enjoyed was the sweet pancake with coconut ice cream. The main food was bad in my opinion. Everything felt like a microwave at home quality. Very disappointed.

Food and the cocktails were amazing! Great atmosphere. Can’t wait to come again.

Great place, staff really friendly food amazing and can’t wait to come back when I don’t have to drive to sample the cocktails

Great service menu was explained, very informative waiter (sorry didn’t catch his name). We ordered a variety of dishes (8 in total) all were excellent. My favourite was the Amba Maluwa (mango curry), Devil pork & pineapple excellent, expected a little more from the Jaffna Goat curry (Little more heat & flavour) but my wife loved it. For Drinks, we had classic Mojito I was not keen. I would definitely call again despite a couple negatives. Need to try more dishes 👍🏻. Returned in the evening for a few more cocktails, recommend the Beach Boy and Yaka. Good work guys, very interesting restaurant that’s definitely worth trying.

Loved the food, staff welcoming and friendly, we would visit again 😊

The food here is incredible! 50% off deal was an added bonus. Lovely staff too!

Food was UNREAL .. so delicious 😋 and the staff were extremely pleasant and welcoming.

The food was great but when a staff member showed up at our table with a drinks order that was wrong she got annoyed with US for their mistake. Making a comment along the lines of what was she supposed to do with the mistaken order. And the service to pay was slow. The guy serving us was lovely however.

Great atmosphere and food. Service friendly and polite. Weve never tried Sri lankan street food before but we will definitely be back. The food is very tasty & filling.

The food is an absolute galaxy of flavours. Quite unlike anything else but fabulous.

First time going, amazing customer service so friendly & helpful, staff really know and are passionate about their food. Cocktails were lovely & really reasonable. We were recommended the black pork and it was incredible. Will be coming back for more very soon!

Fabulous Sri Lankan food. Very prompt, friendly and efficient service. Booking system simple

As always food delicious. And the staff amazing. Don’t think I’ll be dining on a weekend evening like that again though... the pounding music was awful!

Food was lovely really different location was great staff was lovely

Amazing food and customer service. Highly recommended to everyone. Thank you

Always loved visiting here it’s one of my favourite places. We visited over bank holiday and were disappointed that the majority of the meat and fish dishes were unavailable as you’d think that more would be ordered to make sure demand could be met. Although, the staff are always lovely and willing to help you pick dishes if you’re unsure and will definitely keep coming back.

Excellent food. Exceptionally delicious! and nice service but food took a long time to arrive, so sadly won’t be able to use as a option for lunches when at work . Will have to save as a destination for evenings and weekends 😁

Food was excellent. Definitely gets the taste buds sizzling! Highly recommended. Great service. Well done!

Amazing food at a great price and friendly service, will be back again

Food was stunning!! Came out quickly & so many nice options to choose from! Definitely going back soon

Great food and service and as long as you can see past the street vibe decor, you will enjoy.

Lovely food and service. Eating outside, our food got cold a bit too quickly, but we could live with that. A lovely waitress who did her best under difficult circumstances. Thank you!

Amazing food as usual, great friendly service & no apps to have to waste time trying to order through. Can't wait to introduce more people such a wonderful place x

Went Monday lunch, had booked in advance, got there early and was seated with no problem. Food was great, some new dishes. With the 50% off food offer, was amazing value

It was cold, a few people had to keep their coats on. Uncomfortable seating, stools on high table. Food was good though.

Amazing food, was lovely to have the 50% off too!

Nice little restaurant with friendly helpful staff. Food was good

Amazing food and drinks, will be lovely once restrictions are loosened so they can serve cocktails in the normal cups etc. Great place for family’s and big friend groups as it’s perfect for sharing. We will definitely be going back again! New favourite place in Cardiff.

Lovely selection of food and good service . Thank you

Food is always good here Staff are excellent One off my favourite places highly recommend the Coconut tree 🌴

Food was great and service excellent. Have booked to go again.

I’ve been here twice, Very nice staff and their service.

Lovely food and great service from all the staff. Thank you!

Seeing we were eating outside, it was enjoyable. The food was great, especially the cuttlefish!

Amazing food and friendly staff. Looking forward to our next visit

Reopen using a few tables outside but back to their normal excellent food and service Still 50% off food Monday to Friday

Great staff.. food was tasty but arrived lukewarm and as we were sat outside it went cold very quickly. Would be quite expensive if you didn't get the 50% off that we had.
