Most Disliked
Some patrons mention the seating area can feel a bit cramped during peak hours, especially on busy Friday nights when the place hits full capacity. A few customers have expressed dissatisfaction about food arriving so hot that they couldn't enjoy it right away, leading to impatient moments while waiting for their meal to cool down. Due to its adult-only policy, families with young children might feel limited in options. Additionally, a small number of visitors have pointed out a desire for even more variety on the menu, although many agree the current selections are already quite satisfying. Overall, while there may be minor gripes, many return for the charm and atmosphere that Kokomo Joe's consistently delivers.

Love the decor!! So fun! Drinks were so good, I forgot to get a picture of it! My Shrimp Po Boy was so good too, I had to take some Shrimp off just to close the sandwich. The sauce was just the right touch to compliment the Shrimp and the slaw.

Glad to see something different. Finally, a place where you can get something besides a burger, wings, fries or a bar assembled pizza. We’re looking forward to giving this place another shot. What a refreshing change of pace for Main Street. Nothing against the other establishments but the variety is a welcome addition and long overdue. Best of luck to them and I hope they find success.

Pleasantly surprised. My wife drug me to this bar because she likes kareoke. I was dreading it. I was wrong. It's a cute little gem in downtown Collinsville. Great food. Great service. Great atmosphere. The only problem was the food came out of the kitchen HOT... we had to sit there hungry, looking at food sipping beers and listening to music. All in all, well cooked tasty food quickly served is my only complaint. Please come hungry.... my wife ate all my fries!!!!

We stopped in to check out Kokomo Joe's this Sunday. Not only was the atmosphere super cool and fun, but the crowd of customers were too! The service was great & the prices were exceptional. We are looking forward to going back and getting some lunch! In regards to one of the reviews I noticed complaining about nothing & seemingly everything: There ARE indeed multiple other bars on main street! A good rule of thumb if you find yourself not enjoying your time or meshing with the super fun and unique atmosphere this place has to offer - perhaps it's time to mosey somewhere that suits you better? Overall conclusion: Unique, Affordable, Fun, Interesting & Welcoming!
