Why it's worth checking out
Koko Poolside Bar & Kitchen is a tropical dining venue at Peppers Beach Club on Davidson Street in Port Douglas, with a relaxed poolside setting and a distinctly holiday-focused feel. The space is described as chic but easy-going, pairing the resort’s lagoon pool and surrounding sun lounges with a bar and kitchen designed for lingering meals and drinks.
The venue takes its name from the Beach Boys’ song “Kokomo”, reflecting the tropical Port Douglas mood behind the concept. Its offering spans breakfast, lunch, afternoon snacks and dinner, along with a drinks menu featuring Koko’s signature cocktails. The website also provides separate all-day, kids’, snack, lunch and dinner menus, although individual dishes are not listed in the available information.
With breakfast served daily, lunch and snacks across the afternoon, and dinner available most evenings, Koko suits guests looking for a meal without leaving the resort’s pool area. The kids’ menu makes it relevant for families, while the calm poolside surroundings could also work for a casual catch-up or an unhurried drink. Dinner is not offered on Tuesdays, and bookings can be made by phone. For visitors staying at Peppers Beach Club or exploring Port Douglas, Koko offers a convenient resort setting with tropical gardens, pool views and a menu covering several parts of the day.
