ILLUMINATING STREET APPEAL:
MEXICOAST CANTINA’S CAN’T-MISS COASTAL PRESENCE

When Mexicoast Cantina wanted to make their venue impossible to miss, they needed signage that did more than mark the location. We delivered a bold illuminated feature that captures their coastal Mexican energy, draws people in from the street, and sets the vibe for bold flavours, fun cocktails, and good times inside.

"Being new to the restaurant industry, we asked around locally and all of our favourite signs came from Kings of Neon. From there, everything was super easy. The signs look incredible and have become a real talking point for the venue. A genuine 10/10 experience."

— The Mexicoast Cantina Team

KEY REQUIREMENTS

Mexicoast Cantina wanted a sign that felt as lively and welcoming as the venue itself — something bold, warm, and full of personality. It needed to stop people in their tracks, stand out on the street, and instantly communicate the fun, relaxed energy that defines Mexicoast. At the same time, the team had to work within practical constraints around wall space, visibility from the street, access to suitable power, and clean cable concealment, ensuring the final result felt seamless, safe, and integrated rather than cluttered.

CREATIVE EXECUTION

We worked closely with the Mexicoast team to bring their vision to life exactly as intended:

Bold, Brand-Led Design: The neon was designed to reflect Mexicoast’s vibrant coastal-Mexican personality — warm, energetic, and impossible to ignore.

Precision Fit for the Space: The sign was produced to the agreed size and specifications, ensuring it fit perfectly within the planned wall space while maintaining maximum street visibility.

Clean, Practical Execution: Placement and cable routing were considered carefully so the sign felt seamless within the existing fixtures and layout.

Straightforward Production Process: With a clear brief and open communication, the production process was smooth and efficient from start to finish.

This approach ensured the signage delivered both atmosphere and impact without compromising practicality.

BUSINESS IMPACT

Immediate Results:

Can’t-Miss Street Appeal: The illuminated sign immediately draws attention, making Mexicoast stand out and feel alive from the street.
Instant Vibe-Setter: Before guests even walk inside, the neon signals bold flavours, fun cocktails, and a relaxed coastal atmosphere.
Stronger Brand Personality: The signage reinforces Mexicoast’s identity as a place where colour, energy, and experience matter.

Long-term Benefits:

Recognisable Venue Feature: The sign has become a defining element of the restaurant, frequently appearing in customer photos and social media posts.
Enhanced Memorability: Guests regularly comment on the signage, helping Mexicoast remain top-of-mind after visits.
Extended Impact Across the Venue: Following the success of the original sign, an additional neon was added to brighten the back room, extending the brand experience throughout the space.

Mexicoast Cantina’s experience reflects the confidence that comes from choosing a trusted name in the local hospitality scene:

Being new to the restaurant industry, the team leaned on recommendations from other businesses in the area and quickly noticed a pattern — the signs they loved most were all from Kings of Neon. From the first conversation, the process was easy and straightforward, giving them confidence they were in the right hands. When the signs arrived, they came out exactly as expected and quickly became standout features of the space, reinforcing that they’d made the right choice.

CONCLUSION STATEMENT

This collaboration shows how illuminated signage can help hospitality venues stand out, set the mood, and become memorable. By delivering a bold, welcoming feature that works as both signage and a vibe-setter, we helped Mexicoast Cantina create a street presence that matches the energy inside — colourful, lively, and impossible to forget.
