Living Room By Coco in Koregaon Park is a dynamic club that has its highs and lows, making it a unique nightlife spot.
Firstly, the ambience deserves a special mention. It's designed to resemble a living room, and it truly matches the theme. The cozy decor and comfortable seating create an inviting atmosphere where you can relax and unwind.
The food here is a pleasant surprise, and it tastes really good. The diverse menu has options to satisfy a range of tastes, making it a great place to dine while you enjoy the club's offerings.
The sound system is impressive, ensuring you get a memorable audio experience. However, disco lighting could add an extra dimension to the overall vibe.
On the downside, parking space is limited, and the club tends to get crowded on weekends, which can make finding a spot challenging. Also, drinks are on the expensive side, so be prepared to splurge a bit.
The smoking area is a bit small, which might not be ideal for smokers. However, the club's hospitality is commendable, and the staff is welcoming and accommodating.
