“We Loved this place! We ate here for breakfast. The food was great. It was hot, fresh, and served quickly. The staff & service was awesome. The restaurant was clean, and full of sports memorabilia which we absolutely loved. Our server (I think her name was Marie or Maria) was equally as awesome. She took care of all 10 of us, and was super nice and friendly.
We visit Port A often and this was our 1st visit to Coach's.
Definitely won't be our last!“

“Workers work very hard! With the very over populated little island they do their very best to accommodate everyone that piles into the restaurant in a timely manner when the food is cooked per order. Can not satisfy everyone ( Karen’s and Kevin’s)
Going to an already packed location and expecting to be in and out in a rush is absurd. If you have never worked in this type of service it very much shows…“

“Me and my best friend made an impromptu trip to the beach and found stingrays on our way to go set up for the day. The Cabo tacos were amazing, just the right amount of spicy and they were grilled just right. Our waitress was fun, attentive, friendly, and overall just a sweetheart! We loved meeting her. She took such good care of us. We’ll be coming back every time we’re in town. Thanks for the vibes!

Ps-get the rum buckets 🤣❤️“
