One of the best restaurants in Gloucester Road! All vegan and tastes amazing - everyone should try this place at least once! Food was out of this world

I've never had vegan food quite like this. I went with 2 other people, and as they recommended 2/3 plates per person, we ordered 9 mezze plates between us..although it was a little on the expensive side, it was well worth it. Absolutely lovely staff and quick service. There was a great variety of drinks and even a deal on cocktails. We had an absolutely 10/10 time at Koocha

Absolutely amazing food, everything was delicious, 6 mezze dishes left us feeling stuffed, still managed a dessert though. A truly wonderful experience. The espresso martini, made by Trinity, was the best espresso martini I've ever had

Koocha is nestled on a quirky street, just outside of Bristol city centre. We were greeted with enthusiasm and the atmosphere was light, friendly and made us want to stay all afternoon. (Trinity was our member of staff today and they were knowledgeable and seemed to really enjoy their job. They also made a killer cocktail!) We ordered two large glasses of Malbec 6 Mezze plates to share, two desserts, a dirty chai latte and an espresso martini. The food came promptly, was well presented and packed full of flavour. My favourite dish was the whipped feta and cucumber, my husband's was the crispy oyster mushrooms with buffalo sauce. We don't have any Persian style vegan restaurants in Wales and that definitely needs to change, but for the time being we are happy to travel to Bristol for this absolute gem! (One step into establishment and one step up to a small toilet. )

I’m not vegan or even vegetarian, but come here because the food is so interesting, and the variety of textures and flavours is amazing. A really balanced and imaginative menu. The service was very friendly and efficient, and it has nice vibe, in a very urban sort of way. The meze style means you can select several dishes (3 each more than enough) and share, as it is well worth trying a taste of each dish. They are all so different. Thoroughly recommend

Lovely atmosphere and really helpful and friendly staff. Able to accommodate being gluten free really easily, and we’ll set out with seperate fryers etc. (small kitchen so some cross contamination risk). Felt very safe eating here and the food was DELICIOUS. Absolutely will come again. Thank you

All the dishes are spectacular. I specially liked the chicken brochure (which tastes just as chicken and has a sweet sauce) and the pistachio cheesecake (sweet enough and with an equilibrated mixture of flavours). We loved it so much, to the point that we returned the day after. The dip made with cashew, spinacs and basil was also tasteful. Can also be ordered with a roasted sweet potato and crispy chickpeas.

Flavours, colours, variety, yumminess! This is how vegetarian food should be. Props to you guys. We loved the wide choice of options available and went for a 3 dish menu for 21 and a side of fries. Food came quick and the staff were lovely. Next time I’m back in Bristol I’ll be sure to come back.
