Coastal Society Craft Cocktail Bar, Boutique & Eatery — Restaurant in Douglas

Positives: Good location, nice decor. Looks clean and inviting. Nice music choice.

Negatives: The food. Oh dear, the food! Bland, scrimping on flavor and ingredient quality. The chickpea salad was small and flavorless. The Mediterranean trio of dips was served with stale flatbread, which was allegedly naan.

Service: inattentive and untrained. No water on a hot day. I had to go in from the patio to find a server and request water. Tepid water, no ice, served in plastic cups. Food was served on disposable plastic plates! Wait until you see the prices for that!

Pricing: $60, including 20% tip, for 2 small, tapas-sized mediocre dishes. You can do small and expensive if the quality is excellent. This was below average.

Basically the place looks nice, but the owners seem to be amateurs when it comes to food and not shy to charge for the mediocre experience. A pity. This place has potential if they decide to step up and do...

I try not to be critical of places unless it's needed, unfortunately this place needs it. I'll start off with the good, the patio out front is nice to sit in, unfortunately this was about the only thing I enjoyed there.

I highly recommend you find another place to go for food, if you're looking for a drink and to sit in a patio area I guess you'll be...

Based on a conversation with the owner and her replies to reviews, they know everything about running a small business and their patrons are too stupid to understand the concepts. I love a great small business and live in a city that celebrates small businesses. The folks that own small businesses generally revolve around a passion project or supporting something close to them i.e local art, local manufacturers, etc.

What was found at this shop is absolutely astonishing and the response beyond disgusting. I will not celebreate a small business that resells bowls found on Amazon for 500% cheaper and the excuse provided was that I am cheap, petty and know nothing about running a small business.

It was never about the money, Kim. It was...
