Coco Plums Restaurant

Coco Plums is a wonderful Little restaurant on Zion Hill in Apple Bay, Tortola – people who’ve been to the area before might remember it as The Apple under previous owners.  This has always been a popular place for locals and visitors to hang out for a while, but, since its change of name and image, the food has now become the focus of attention.

You’ll notice that many restaurants in the Caribbean don’t have too much ‘Sidewalk Appeal’ – they rely on what’s on offer inside and their reputation going round by word of mouth.  Coco Plums is a little like that – but do yourself a favor and pay it a visit.

For a start, the waitresses in Coco Plums are just about the friendliest you will find anywhere in the whole of Tortola and will take time to explain everything about what’s on the menu, which has a wide variety of dishes available.  You’ll find lots of fresh local fish and seafood as well as some highly recommended pasta dishes.  Highlights undoubtedly include the stuffed chicken  (stuffed with spinach, cheese and mushrooms), the spaghetti carbonara and the mushrooms on a skillet appetizer.  The blackened steak seasoning is also very well-known – try it on steak or fish.

You can always be sure of generous portions at Coco Plums and an additional salad course is usually served between your starter and your main completely free of charge.

With the quality of the food and the size of the portions, you’ll gather that this is a restaurant where it is advisable to book ahead and reserve your table – it’s often full.  You can telephone Coco Plums at 2844954672.

One of the signs that a place offers good value for money is the amount of local people who eat there regularly and Coco Plums comes out well in that sort of analysis; it’s a very popular place where you’ll often find yourself sitting near office workers on a ‘Girls’ Night Out’ or local couples treating themselves to a really good meal.

There’s a lively, friendly atmosphere every time you go to Coco Plums, where they have a Happy Hour from 5 to 7 every day; when you can get some delicious coconut chips and conch fritters, incidentally.

This is one of those restaurants you will go into and think, ‘I wish we had somewhere just like this back home’ – but mind the fig tree when you go back into the street.  It’s caught a lot of people out in its time!
