This was the first time I had visited Cote, and if this is an example of your aggressive marketing then I want nothing more to do with it. I have absolutely nothing more to add, but have been made to put something in this box. I really don’t like this, if people have nothing to say, then like most other similar sites they should still be able to post their review

Lovely restaurants with lovely food. Service was also perfect. We went for my Mum's 60th and they bought over some complimentary bubbles for us to enjoy which was a lovely unexpected added extra. Would highly recommend

First time at a Cote Brasserie, and was pleasantly surprised. Having lived for a number of years in France and now back in the UK, the menu, ambiance and food were all reminiscent of brasseries I used to eat in, in Paris, although being offered some "pain" while waiting for your meal would be even more authentic, however I know that is not the British way of doing things. My husband and I shared a starter charcuterie board, which had just the right amount of meats, rillettes, accompanying salad and bread. I chose the chicken, avocado and walnut salad which I enjoyed and my husband had the classic "steak frites" which although he found was still a bit too well done for his liking (he has acquired the French taste for steak to be served rare) said it was very tasty, the chips were light and crispy and didn't feel the need to complain as overall he enjoyed the dish very much. We didn't have room for desserts. The ambiance and service in the restaurant was just right so an enjoyable lunch, thank you.

This is my first visit to the Bournemouth Côte. As with other Côte restaurants we have previously visited the varied menu choice, standard of food, service and overall value for money could not be faulted. In all a very enjoyable lunch experience.

Came to lunch for my husbands birthday. We were looked after so well. Not rushed, given loads of time to relax and enjoy the food, ambience and each others company. I hadn't forewarned them that it was a birthday celebration but the waitress having seen the cards and presents did his desert on a happy birthday plate. Such a lovely thing to do. We love this place. Its my husbands favourite restaurant.

All staffs in restaurant looked do not want to allow me to the restaurant except the waiter who served my meal and let everything I requested. Moreover, 2 waitress noise talked together while I was eating in font of me. I afraid to say that I do not like this experience. However, the waiter who take care me should be role model for others.

Service was good if a little slow considering there were less than a dozen people in situ and a table had to be laid to allow us to be seated. However I have had better food at a Cotes both her in Bournemouth and in Eton. Deeply disappointed the Breton Fish Stew was no longer on the menu. As an alternative I opted for the Seafood Linguine the king prawns were a little tough obviously over cooked. If I want pasta I would go to an Italian restaurant anyway - my choice obviously the wrong one. I look forward to next change in your menu.

Very rushed service to order & eat our food then struggled to get service to order more drinks. Felt very like the experience of a fast food restaurant. Not what we have previously experienced at Cote Brasserie. Staff were sat on a table near us, as they finished service, eating & drinking which was ironic baring in mind we struggled to get served. Menu did not state that one of our meals came with potatoes so ordered some. Then meal came served with potatoes!!! It would have been nice if the waiter could have told us.
