At The Coterie, you’re not just indulging in a meal; you’re immersing yourself in an experience. The menu showcases an array of mouth-watering dishes, but their burgers have truly become the talk of the town. Take, for instance, the Coterie Burger—a juicy 1/3 lb. local beef patty adorned with American cheese, zesty sriracha mayo, fresh lettuce, tomato, onion, and a tangy tajin pickle, all nestled within a perfectly grilled sourdough bun. For just $10, it’s a delightful explosion of flavors that sets a high standard in the local dining scene.

And don't miss the innovative Double Grilled Cheesy Boi—an indulgent option that takes comfort food to the next level.
What sets The Coterie apart is not only the delectable food but also the atmosphere. As former Kokomo resident John McGue noted, it has the vibe of a live music hotspot you'd find in Austin or Nashville. Patrons enjoy a fantastic lineup of local and national talent while sipping on well-crafted cocktails. The ambiance is as inviting as the service—friendly and attentive, ensuring your dining experience is unforgettable.
Customers rave about the side dishes too, especially the fried pickles and the highly praised spicy ranch dip. One enthusiast declared it to be the best fried pickles they’ve ever had. Desserts, like the decadent chocolate strawberry cheesecake, add a sweet ending to the meal, leaving diners excited to return.
For those seeking a customizable dining experience, The Coterie truly shines. The flexibility to substitute and personalize your burger—whether opting for chicken or a Beyond burger, or even transforming it into a wrap—means every visit can highlight your individual tastes.
In essence, The Coterie is more than just a restaurant; it's a community hub where flavors are celebrated, music fills the air, and guests leave with smiles. As you explore Kokomo, make sure this vibrant spot is on your list— for the food, the fun, and the unforgettable memories that await.
“ Absolutely love the staff! The food is amazing ! Always a fun time when we go! Grape Jelly Mayo with fries and a Missionary Burger! Always try the burger if the week! They are genius when putting flavors together The Cheesecake is out of this world! You won't want to miss this place! ”
“ As a former Kokomo resident, I had been wanting so bad to go to The Coterie. I'd heard so many great things. It always looks so great on Facebook and the website. It did not disappoint. Incredible food, cocktails, excellent staff. The Dakota Ray Parker show last night was awesome. You guys have really outdone yourselves. It feels like an Austin or Nashville venue and restaurant. Seriously, keep up the great work. By the way, one of the best sounding rooms I've ever heard, and I've been to probably a thousand venues this size. Thank you for supporting live original music too. There's nothing like this in Kokomo. Oh, and kudos to your talent booking. I'm amazed at the national talent you are booking that I'm sure didn't even know Kokomo existed in the past. Seriously great lineup. I might have to move back just to hang out at The Coterie with my friends who are already regulars. ”
“ What an absolute vibe. I loooove the Coterie. The live music on the weekend is so fun, and their burgers are always so delicious, and I would die for those fries. don't even get me started on the dips! The spicy ranch?!?! Stop. I highly recommend their Sunday brunch (not sure if they do it any other time or just Sundays). Great drinks, fun staff and delicious food. Can't wait to go back!! ”
“ We had a group of fans come up for the Night Ranger concert And we had a late lunch early dinner here. The service was marvelous and the food was amazing. We all had different entrees and apps. We had fried pickles, french fries, the tempura chicken, other people had the spicy shrimp, and I think a couple burgers. Everyone raved about the food being amazing. ”
“ We had the fried pickles to start with. My boyfriend said they're the best he's ever had. He ordered the peanut butter burger. I had the queso burger It. Was. SoOo. Good. We ended the night with a decadent piece of chocolate strawberry cheesecake, it was delicious & only 6. All the food is very reasonably priced, especially when you consider how much they buy local. It was a friday evening & the service was great, I believe her name was Amanda! She explained u can substitute any burger with chicken or a beyond burger & get it made into a wrap or salad. Their menu is completely customizable & they dont charge for it. Overall, it was a great experience. ”
“ This was my first time at this bar and I'm way behind on checking it out as I had heard many good things. First, the service is absolutely phenomenal and fast. All of the staff were super friendly and conversational. There is a downstairs and an upstairs and it was a Friday night that I was there so they had a band upstairs which was really cool. The food was absolutely amazing. I've been on a little smashburger to her lately and these people have one of the top ones. Very flavorful and cooked to perfection. I normally do not comment on French fries but the fries here were absolutely amazing! If you're a police agency, stop reading at this point. The drinks were and absolutely every one of them were made to perfection. I tried a few different old fashioneds and my favorite was hands down the maple! And I may have had a couple of those. Definitely run and don't walk to this spot. I will definitely be back and don't forget to try that smashburger! ”
“ Had the Coterie burger here last week - honestly one of the best burgers I've had in a long time. You can tell they really care about quality. But what really impressed me happened after I left. I accidentally left my sunglasses on the table and didn't realize until I was already hours into my drive home. Figured they were gone forever, but emailed the restaurant anyway just in case. The owner, Kyle, got back to me right away saying they found them. Then, he actually offered to ship them to me! He packed them carefully with bubble wrap and sent me tracking info. In a world where most places wouldn't bother, The Coterie went out of their way to help a customer who made a dumb mistake. Between the amazing food and this kind of service, they've earned a customer for life. Highly recommend - this is what local restaurants are all about. ”
“ A great place to go if you are looking for fun and unique smash burgers and adult beverages! The food was awesome, the service was great, and the atmosphere was very laid back. I highly recommend checking this place out. We went around lunch time so it wasn’t too busy! ”
