Cocoa Island

The desserts and coffees were incredibly popular (not to mention delicious), communication was great-the team made everything so easy-and we will definitely book again for similar events. Highly recommend!

Had an amazing experience using pop top… Had an amazing experience using pop top and cocoa island. Alan was our bartender and he was serving drinks for 4hrs non stop to 200guests. There was constantly a massive queue for his cocktails, all the guests said he was amazing and he didn’t complain once especially as he was outside serving in the rain! Cocoa Island were very quick at responding to all my requests leading up to the event and very helpful in regards to the ingredients required for the evening. Thankyou both!

I hired Cocoa Island to provide a “Professional cocktail bartender” on NYE a few months in advance. They insisted I pay in full at the time of booking. On the day they informed me Jason would be coming to service me that night. Instead someone called Princess turned up and stated Jason had cancelled and she had been given the job last minute. What I got with Princess was her standing behind a bar frantically Googling “how to make a cocktail” like it was her first day behind a bar and not even being able to recognise a bottle of Prosecco or distinguish between a bottle of rum or red wine. Every drink request resulted in her pulling out her phone and then asking me questions. I’m pretty sure I could’ve made my own drinks faster. As for equipment—she turned up with none . No shaker. No jigger. No strainer. No tools of any kind. I called the supplier within 20 minute's of their staff member arriving to inform them of the issues and they stated they would call her to discuss but I never heard back from them on the night. Apparently cocktails are made with hopes, prayers, and whatever random bottles were nearby. Watching her attempt to make cocktails was totally frustrating and ruined my night. Cocoa Island refused to address the issue and I would definitely not recommend them.

Jonathan was a lovely, professional, smart bar man who couldn’t do enough to help, would recognise.

Amazing barmen and bar setup for my 40th! I decided to go with Cocoa Island for my 40th birthday aftwr plenty of research and deliberation, and honestly I couldn’t have been happier with my decision. Danesh who runs the business was so helpful, great communication and flexible from before I’d even booked through to completion. The bar setup was AMAZING and fitted well into my summer beach party vibe. Everything ran so smoothly from setup to pickup. Everyone was commenting on how amazing the bar looked and importantly how amazing the cocktails tasted. We had 2 barmen (had around 80 guests) who were both great, very efficient and made great tasting drinks, the Margeritas definitely seemed to be the drink of the day! I would highly recommend cocoa island for your event! Thank you for helping to make my 40th a night all my guests will remember!
