True Potential of Vegan Food - Edit
I’ve been here many times and it’s never disappointed me and my family! An amazing experience all round, with welcoming staff (that did end up recognising us on our more recent trips!), cosy vibe and amazing tastes. For the three of us we shared 8 plates including roasted sweet potato, oyster wings, loaded hummus, batata harra, spiced cauliflower, doner bao buns, parmesan fries and feta salad. There’s a brilliant mix of vibrant flavours and each dish is very special. We did sneak in some cheeky desserts too which were also delicious, including pistachio marshmallow cheesecake, baklava and chocolate fondant cake. The cheesecake is the best I’ve ever had and I always make sure to save myself for it, even if I have to share! One time we also tried the cocktails and the espresso martini was beautiful, rich and silky, again amazing! If you’re in Bristol, I cannot recommend this place enough!

Sensational cabbage - Edit
The star of the show for me was the grilled cabbage, but honestly everything was delicious and there is so many options!

We had 6 small plates and every one of them was absolutely amazing. So full of flavour and such good quality. The cauliflower was immense!

Gorgeous mezze resturant - Edit
We visited Koocha during a trip to Bristol and had a fantastic meal. The menu is huge, with so many tempting options that it took us a while to decide what to order.
Read moreThe mezze-style approach is a great idea, allowing you to try a variety of dishes and flavours. Everything we had was delicious, and the standout for us was the spiced cauliflower, which was particularly memorable.
The staff were genuinely lovely and made us feel very welcome throughout our visit. Combined with the excellent food, it made for a really enjoyable dining experience.
We'd happily recommend Koocha to anyone visiting Bristol and would definitely return if we were in the area again.
Pros: Huge menu, Lovely staff, Great tasting food
Cons: Very hot (it was a heatwave) and just fans

Fabulous - Edit
Everything was perfect. Went here to celebrate my birthday this evening. Staff were lovely. Ordered 5 dishes between 2 of us and it was the perfect amount. It was all beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. I can't fault any of it. Wish I lived in Bristol so I could come here all the time. The restaurant was full and had a lovely atmosphere. I can't remember what we ordered but I don't think you can go wrong.

Completely deserves its high ratings. - Edit
October 2025: It’s easy to get a bit jaded at mezze/ Middle Eastern options in the UK as a vegan, simply because there’s only so much falafel and humus one can eat.
Read moreThis place, however, is amazing. They have a number of dishes that are rare to find. The owner is of Persian descent and has veganised classic dishes. The food is wonderful and I can’t wait to go back on my next trip to Bristol. Excellent service by all staff.
Update: August 2026. Returned to this place while on a holiday to the city. Remains excellent.

Outstanding - Edit
I think this is the best vegan food I have ever eaten. I loved it, my non-vegan teens loved it (they shared a seitan kebab and helped me with my plates), and the service was great. My favourites were the beer battered salmon and the oyster wings, but it was all amazing. Cannot wait to come back

Great for Everyone - Edit
I brought my mum here recently as it’s always been a guaranteed success with non-vegans. She absolutely loved it and can’t wait to try more of the menu when she visits Bristol again. The staff are always fantastic. The food was delicious. And the menu changes quite a bit which means it keeps it interesting. Also OBSESSED with the Sunday roasts.

Very good, would try more of the menu - Edit
Would go back, the meals we got were really nice and good portion sizes, couple of negatives is the rice tasted of nothing, not like Saffron rice which is what we ordered and the kobbideh was made from beyond, we LOVE beyond, but just did not feel authentic, was really nice as of course beyond is yum but felt like we were eating more of a burger type thing rather than koobideh. Also the kebab meat was on the stingy side, 2 sort of strips then mostly salad.
Read moreCauliflower starter was amazing.

Amazing food, thoroughly tasty and would recommend - Edit
Wow, that was a superb meal! - friendly staff, inviting atmosphere too. My wife and I had olives then four mezze plates between us with one zaatar laffa bread and one harissa laffa bread. Could not have asked for better food and would recommend to anyone. We were too full to try the deserts unfortunately because they looked lovely.

Amazing food, as always! - Edit
The food was all so good it’s difficult to highlight any one thing, but for me the toothpick aubergine kebabs, the soft, pillowy bao and the charred cabbage wedge with parsnip hummus, miso and tahini are right up there in my top 3. And those desserts??? Oh my. We had the pistachio & marshmallow cheesecake and the chocolate fondant with pistachio honea centre.
Read moreService was amazing despite them being super busy.
If ever you’re in Bristol a visit to Koocha is a must!

Superb kebab. Very good food, service a little slow - Edit
I’ve never had the confidence to go for a vegan kebab before, and this comes with a high £, but I’m so glad I did. It was brilliant and I’d definitely go again for it. The rest of the food was also great. The shame was the service. It was busy, but no one really talked to us, something was taken off the bill, but there were delays between different plates arriving. But would definitely go back.

Probably my favourite restaurant in Bristol - Edit
This place is incredible. We went twice on our weekend away. Once for normal menu & once on the Sunday to experience their roast dinners. Both visits were amazing & their food is top drawer! If you’re vegan & in Bristol - you simply have to give this place a look!

10/10 Amazing! - Edit
One of the best vegan meals I’ve had. Every dish was delicious . We shared 12 mezze plates between 4 of us. Then ordered one extra to mop up the dips. Everything was great, the vibe of the place, the smell when we walked in, all the staff were lovely, the cocktails. Wish we had something this good in Yorkshire. Will be back next time we’re in Bristol.

Relaxed and authentic - Edit
We were visiting Bristol for the night as a birthday treat for my husband and decided on Koocha as the reviews were so great.
Read moreWe were in town for a show, so had a rather odd sit-down time of 5pm on a Sunday - but our experience was still wonderful and we were well looked after by Trinity and the team.
We opted for the Seitan Doner - it was plentiful, tasty and satisfying - just as a good kebab should be. The mezze dishes also looked amazing and we hope to visit again soon to try more of the menu. Recommended!
