The King - Melbourne

Popped in for lunch yesterday and tried the $18 lunch special. Good atmosphere and friendly service. I ordered the chicken burger which came with chips and chose a house Chardonnay to match. Price wise, it was a good deal. The burger was okay, chicken was moist and cooked well and the salad was fresh although the bun was a bit cold and stale. Overall an okay place for an affordable work lunch.

We used El Coco for our engagement party venue and can’t rave enough about the night. The venue is beautiful and the staff are beyond helpful and we’re such a pleasure to work with to set up the night. The venue allowed us to bring in our own entertainment such as a beer pong table and giant jenga ect so accommodating to how we wanted the night to be. The food was unreal (especially the arancini balls) we were able to bring in a grazing platter on top of the food we organised for the night which was a huge relief cause a lot of places had said no to bringing anything other then dessert. I would highly recommend using this space for any event. Thanks guys you made our night one to remember.

Parma's are SENSATIONAL !!!!! Not sure why people are bitching about $6 pizza not being up to scratch... Pretty sure they are not meant to be luscious expensive meals ha ha. The parma's are sick and come with fat chips I could eat for daysssssss. Bit of a mixed crowd, lots of suits, lots of students, lots of backpackers it looks like, so fully sweet vibe most of the time. The lads in the bar are good value too. Defs head here for a feed before a night clubbing on King St

I recently held my engagement party at El Coco and we had the night of our lives! Everything was fantastic, Tom the venue manager was wonderful and nothing was too much for him, all the staff were very friendly and the food and beverage service was exceptional. It all went so smoothly, Caitlin the Functions Coordinator was great to deal with and gave me a wonderful deal with the food and beverages at a very reasonable price. We had about 170 people on the night and there was plenty of room for all. Thank you so much El Coco, everyone LOVED the venue and we had such a fantastic night!!

Love the happy hour prices and the pizza is great! The set up of the bar is really chill but the music can be a little too loud which makes it difficult to have conversations with friends.
