Banging! Every Mezze Option we got was sooo delicious! Our order which we recommend. 5 mezze plates was enough for 2.

Oyster wings - fake oyster with delicious sauce.
Charred Cabbage - DO NOT SKIP. THE PARSNIP HUMMUS IS TASTY
Sweet potato - the dip omg. Also not optional to not order.
Doner bao bun.
Also. You must try the new Fondant dessert. Life changing.

Completely deserves its high ratings. - Edit
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 and shout out to Rosie.

Plant-based feast that actually fills you up - Edit
Popped into Koocha for a late lunch and left very happy. We started with the Artichoke Dip — herby, garlicky and super moreish (pomegranate). Then split the Koocha burger with fries (extremely tasty and juicy) and the Mixed Grill, which had a good mix of kebabs and extras and worked perfectly for sharing. Craft beers on the table — Good Chemistry's Pure Optimism and Bristol Beer Factory's Laser Juice — played nicely with the food. Portions are generous and made for sharing; value felt fair for the size. Service was relaxed and friendly without hovering, music at a comfortable level, room felt welcoming. Would come back with friends and order the same lineup.
Read morePros: Generous portions, Tasty vegan skewers + warm flatbread, Artichoke dip is a standout
Cons: Would serve the fries a touch hotter but ok

Genuinely amazing food - Edit
My wife has been raving about this place ever since she visited with friends over a year ago. We decided to detour and grab lunch on a trip from Wales to Southampton and, honestly, believe the hype.
Read moreWe shared a mixed grill and loaded fried. The flavours were incredible. The chicken and lamb kebab skewers were surprisingly meaty and very well seasoned.
We’re definitely going to head back at the earliest opportunity to try the mezze. Can’t wait!

What a find, this is why I love Happy Cow ♥️
Read moreThe food is too good to be true, I had the Koocha Kebab and chips followed by the Baklava that was recommended by my server.
The problem is now I've had it I want it all the time, shame I live so far away.
But, I will be back.

"I didn't know vegan food could taste this good!" - Edit
I took my omnivorous partner here and her reaction was "I didn't know vegan food could taste this good!". I definitely recommend getting a few of the small plates as there's such a wide variety. Don't worry if you order too many. They'll still be good for leftovers the next day. ;)
