Great breakfast, great service and great position. Very much recommended!
Visited the restaurant for the first time for my husbands birthday. Service was excellent from the time we walked through the door & food was lovely. Definately recommend it.
Don’t allow hen parties! They were loud and rude and didn’t consider others there at all! We have children so this was a rare treat for us. Amazing food!
Very pleasant evening. Pork belly excellent, veal schnitzel was too large and lacking in veg. Always a pleasant experience as staff are well trained. Wine list could include percentage alcohol and more tasting notes.
Good service and great food, nice place for lunch. Cote is always reliable and new the May menu has plenty of choices. Would recommend again.
Lovely atmosphere and beautiful place. The food is first class and service was excellent! The staff are all nice and friendly. We will definitely be visiting again.
Superb service- our waitress Dana was excellent and we all thoroughly enjoyed our food particularly the pork belly and we would recommend the pissaladière to share as a light starter. Many thanks !
It was a warm day and the restaurant was uncomfortably hot. There is no shade upstairs from the sun at some tables and the venue was busy so no option to move tables. no blinds at the windows - silly design oversight. The food was good and the service friendly and efficient. Please set the air conditioning properly.
Long wait for main course. Food not particularly memorable. On the whole the decor is attractive but after many visits the food varies from disappointing to good. It would be so much better if it could be consistently good.
As regular customers of Cote in Hampstead, Salisbury & Bournemouth we were slightly disappointed with the initial service at the Bournemouth restaurant as we had two friends with us who had never been to a Cote before. After giving our orders we waited about 20 minutes before I had to get up to complain that neither the drinks or even the bread basket order had yet arrived. After apologies everything was fine.
As always a great experience 😀great service 😀and great food 😀my wife and l love Cota , we have never been disappointed a must visit
Classic French cuisine expertly executed in a stunning location at the heart of the town centre. Lovingly laid out inside with real attention to detail.
Excellent perfect service and most enjoyable meal you will see us again I will now just keep writing until I get to twenty five words
The service was very attentive as soon as we walked in the door. Nothing was too much trouble. Excellent service, great food and wine. Would highly recommend and will definitely be going back! 😀
Great food. Fantastic value for money. Friendly service. We came here for a quick meal before the cinema and were really impressed. Will definitely be back.
We booked a table for Sunday evening, when we arrived the restaurant was fairly quiet. When our food arrived it was perfectly presented, my friend's chicken dish was fine but my vegetables and sauce with the pork belly were stone cold! I called over the waiter and his reply was it's meant to be just warm, not hot?? Slightly baffled by his answer I asked for my meal to be returned to the kitchen. I waited 10 minutes for a new plate, by this time my friend had almost finished her main. I was very disappointed by the service, a restaurant of this class really shouldn't send out cold food, no excuses it wasn't busy. Not sure I would eat here again.
Excellent service as usual and friendly efficient and professional staff. Good choices on menu. Altogether a very enjoyable experience and we will certainly be returning in the very near future
The restaurant is in a good location and the whole experience was a good one. We were on holiday so it confirmed that we really rate Cote, having used our local branch regularly
The food was ok, not great as we expected. We have had a lot better breakfast experiences in Bournemouth. The ambience was good. The service was good.
We both Enjoyed the food n staff were particularly helpful. The menu was varied but the staff kindly found me vegan options. Thank u v much
Visited Cote restaurant for the first time in Bournemouth. Very smart and a Great team, friendly and efficient. Food very good. Look forward to revisiting.
I celebrated my birthday at Cote Bournemouth with friends and the staff could not have been more helpful from the glass of champagne to the candle in my dessert! All the dishes we ordered were great. Absolutely no complaints. Food,wine and staff fantastic. Well worth a visit and a great location near the gardens.

Great food and location, staff very friendly and accommodating, would highly recommend this restaurant.
First visit to Cote Bournemouth - with four friends who had never been to Cote. Furnishings and decor very pleasant.Food very good as usual. Service also good. Marks only 5 - no-one is perfect!
Wow first time of trying this restaurant and well it was amazing . Service was fantastic and food was absolutely superb. We will definitely being going back again and found it was reasonably priced . It’s got to be tried we will be recommending this restaurant.
attentive staff , value for money lunch , we have visited on several occasions ,this time we took friends who were also impressed . a big plus to eating in Bournemouth town centre .
Fabulous service, food and setting. Cote bournemouth outperforms pretty much ever other restaurant, both independent or otherwise, in the town centre. We’ve been a few times already and will certainly be back again soon.
I dislike intensely the IMPOSITION of a 12.5 % surcharge, although I recognise it is discretionary! The service I had was very slow, although the food was excellent. I would have given a gratuity for the food and up to 10% would be acceptable I feel. I could not see any CLEAR indication to the 12.5 % levy. A VERY UNHAPPY CUSTOMER - VERY UNDERHAND METHODS USED !
Chose to eat here as visited previously when staying in Bournemouth. Excellent service from friendly and helpful staff. Good food nice ambience. Definitely return when back in the area
We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Cote. The food was up to the usual excellent standard and the staff were very efficient and friendly. We would particularly mention Matt (who we knew from Salisbury) and Lorenzo. They looked after us very well and we will be returning to Cote in the very near future.
Restaurant was quiet as it was a Monday night but service was excellent as usual and the food was perfectly cooked and presented. Would recommend.
Such a good restaurant... the staff are lovely, the pre theatre menu provides a great choice and breakfast is delicious too! Thank you very much!
The service was very good at the beginning and the food excellent. I was disappointed that there was a change of waiter towards the end and we were not looked after. I told our waiter that we had a show to go to so asked for the bill when i ordered a dessert and a coffee. We waited for ages and i had to flag 2 waiters before someone came to take the bill. We were then late for our show.
The food was really great and so was the service, It was also good value which all in all made it a really enjoyable evening
I am a coeliac and the staff were very helpful and friendly and knew what they were doing in terms of keeping me safe. And the food was delicious!
We had a very enjoyable evening. The food was excellent and a wide variety of choices. The staff were also very pleasant and helpful. Nice surroundings.
A lovely restaurant, plenty of space between tables. Very good service, amazing food and a relaxing environment. I would definitely recommend this venue to anyone looking for a good night out.
Excellent customer service, friendly staff and attention to detail, good selection of food and wine served in a efficient manner. Would go back and recommend to others.
Had a lovely lunch with a friend. Staff attentive and food good value on the lunchtime menu special. not too large portions great for lunchtome.
Fantastic food, the experience made even better by ou lovely Russian waitress who could not have done more for us. Big fan of Cote! Great!
We had good quality food, nicely presented. Liked the French decor and general atmosphere. Service a bit slow which was unfortunate as had to keep calling staff.
The staff were lovely, the environment warm and cosy but I didn't feel the food was value for money. It could have been tastier, sorry.
Lovely restaurant, food & service was great. The only thing I was slightly disappointed about always the 12.5% service charge which added nearly £10 onto our bill, which for 2 people was quite a lot. We would have left a tip but not that amount.
Was a lovely experience ... food good and staff attentive but unfortunately a mistake was made with the order and one guests meal arrived as the rest of us had almost finished which was dissappointing .
