Several miles from the nearest coastline in landlocked Kenilworth, the Coconut Lagoon restaurant provides a little sun-drenched exotica for the beach-deprived diners of the Midlands. Located within the luxurious Best Western The Peacock Hotel in the centre of town, the Coconut Lagoon is comfortable and spacious, the dining room a vibrant, cheerful space where service is both efficient and friendly and the décor is representative of both the British taste for the modern and the sunny colours and warmth of Southern India. At Coconut Lagoon, diners are encouraged to forget what they think they know about Indian dining and embrace the flavours and aromas of the southern provinces of Goa, Andhra Pradesh, Kerala and Karnataka. The vast menu reaches all the way from nibbles to be enjoyed upon arrival to desserts, a list that includes traditional Indian sweets as well as a couple of British favourites for the less adventurous.
