Côte Bristol Clifton Village

Very pleasurable Sunday morning spent at Cotes in Clifton eating a full English breakfast and a lovely cup of tea. Relaxed ambience and good service.

Really great food as usual, service was very good and attentive. The atmosphere of the restaurant was authentic and fun even though we went at what normally be considered a quiet time. particularly enjoyed the Breton chicken

Fast, attentive and friendly service even at lunchtime on Good Friday and the place was packed! It's a nice environment, very clean and we settled quickly. Lovely food too, especially the calimari. I'd definitely go back.

As usual staff were very helpful and friendly. Our meals were nicely displayed and cooked, and the one error made in serving a latte coffee instead of flat white, was instantly corrected with new coffees and apologies. The whole standard was high, as we have been used to since starting to eat there. Well done Cote!

As we have said on numerous occasions, this has to be one of the best restaurants in Bristol - why go anywhere else ! Wonderful team of servers under General Manager Hannah. Summer - Melody - to name just a couple. Wonderful exerience.

Enjoyed a fantastic breakfast with family. As always the service was top notch. Always find the waiting staff very friendly and attentive. Will return again soon.

Have been here many times. Always good service, always good food and always very busy. Booking is a must for evenings especially. Staff are always polite and efficient. Strongly recommend.

Consistently good food, friendly, smiling and helpful waiting staff, plus excellent value overall. What's not to like? Cote is a firm, child-friendly favourite for all the family.

We would like to say we enjoyed the venue, but wish we had a choice of seating. It was our wedding anniversary. I enjoyed my meal, but my wife, s comment was that there was a heap of chick peas which spoilt the flavour of the fish. Service was excellent. The lunch time special was not up to the value.

We had the early bird menu which isn't as good as it used to be although it is good value. The tables are too close together and it was very noisdy. Very good service did help to make it a pleasant experience.

We had a lovely lunch on Sunday at Cote in Clifton Village, it was quite busy but we didn't have to wait long for our drinks. It did take us ages to decide what to have to eat as there is a lot of choice, but we all went for the same starter and two of us had the same main course. Too full up to have desert but the coffee was good.

As always we were well looked after by friendly staff with excellent food and drink. We will all make further reservations at Clifton village for meals! JLW.

Reserved a table for 8 requested a table on the upper level had a table at the lower level lighting very dark and gloomy. Request pointless as there was room.

Lovely ambience, great food and really friendly service. Great range of choice on the menu. We will definitely come again and have already recommended it to our friends.

Really good food and atmosphere The service was good...we even got an extra glass of wine when wine was poured into a glass of beer!

Perfect, as ever. We always love coming to Cote, thank you so much for always going the extra mile- with birthday cakes etc. We're getting to the point where every special occasion is celebrated with Cote!

Food, wine and service all excellent, as always. The set lunch menu was particularly good value. All the party much enjoyed the reunion. (Having a round table was a helpful plus.)

Food of a high quality and staff exceptionally nice. We had the tenth anniversary set menu including a glass of champagne and it was delicious.

Excellent food, attentive staff, good value for money. Relaxed atmosphere , a very enjoyable lunch as usual. Best venue for a girls Monday lunch date.

Nothing was too much trouble for the team at Cotê Brasserie! It was my husbands birthday and I had a few requests that they did with no fuss at all! Food was lovely and good value. Although there was a very annoying customer sat a few tables away which every table around her complained about. She was drunk and verrrryyyyy loud, shreaking at the top of her voice which annoyed everyone. Although there was nothing the staff could do about it, it still ruined the end of our evening.

Very pleasant lunch, thank you. Nice chips, sorry, frites. Staff are great - I do hope you are paying them a decent wage - they deserve it.

Its a very pleasant restaurant, located at the heart of Clifton Village, the staff are good and food always reliable and of a good standard.

The table situation, comfort, ambience and service was great. Disappointed to be informed that my chosen 4 fish dish wasn't available quite a little while after ordering. I agreed to the offered 'alternative' - a hake version. I received a mediocre one fish pie, a little on the dry side. Hake and potato basically. My main comment would be the 12% service charge which altho' stated as 'optional' is automatically included in the printed bill. It is awkward - and acutely embarrassing in front of guests - to ask for the amount to be reduced. 12% service charge is a lot on top of quality meal prices (+ extra for veg) for those of us not loaded and perhaps 'pushing the boat out' for a special occasion - and particularly if anything falls short of expectations. I feel strongly that service charge/tips should be left to the discretion of the bill payer and dislike feeling coerced into it to avoid embarrassment. I always tip entirely dependent on all the factors for having an enjoyable evening as well as of course, FOOD quality/availability and value for money.

As always, we enjoyed our meal at Cote. The staff are so pleasant and welcoming, the service prompt and the food very good quality and value. One of our favourite restaurants,

Always reliable. Good quality bistro food at sensible prices. Excellent staff, could teach many so-called high class restaurants how to treat customers. Could haowever, stop asking if everything ok!

We enjoyed our meal but it was quite noisy, so difficult to hear the conversation. The Syrah red wine was delicious. The vegetables were find, without butter as we requested but they have an odd habit at Cote Brasserie of putting opinions in with the peas.

really good service and a lovely light meal at end of day. great atmosphere & temperature , ambience, comfortable seating... [very little vegetarian choice though]

Service slow. Staff more interested in laying tables than serving. Usually good but not this time. I expect to be asked if we'd like a drink whilst selecting the menu not just left ther for a good 15 mins without even a glass of water. Not impressed

Lovely meal great food, excellent choice of food and drink, very attentive staff and knowledgeable about their products, great evening with friends, just a little loud, but recommend a visit.

Excellent, mum's85 birthday. The staff were very helpful and pleasant and everyone enjoyed their food. They were considerate of mum giving us a table on the lower floor.

As usual we were spoilt for choice with the April menu at a variety of prices. As usual your excellent staff who, although very busy, looked after us superbly and helped generate a great atmosphere.

Nice place. Big! Didn't expect that size. Little bit loud and they sat us next to the toilet. Nice food. Highly recommended. Definitely will come back.

Delicious food, impeccable service and great atmosphere! Will become a future family favourite! Minute steak and chips great value for money, burgers the best I've eaten. Can see why it is a popular eatery for carnivores!

As usual the Cote experience was really good. Cote is consistent which is a rare find, staff always polite and helpful and food and wine excellent.

A nice restaurant with very plesant staff. Food was very good quality but starters seemn proportionately expensive compared with main course prices. Also bread is extra as any side dishes. Plus 12.5% is added to all billls which seems over the top especially as they market themselves as inexpensive. Having said all that was a very enjoyable and good quality meal.

The staff are welcoming and friendly, the dishes are beautifully prepared, good value for money. We are always happy to come here, Cote is our favourite restaurant in Clifton!

Food was delicious, the ambience great, but overall the service was not as good as I'd experienced on other visits to Cote in Clifton Village.

Always a friendly welcome, the place is never quiet and the location is superb. Food was just lovely and the table we were given could not have been better. Thanks again!

We couldn't fault the food but the service was incredibly slow. My parents reminded us that due to slow service on previous visits they had sworn not to return. Unfortunately I did not know this when I booked.

Service was excellent. The fact that wine was spilt was noticed and attended to promptly. We all enjoyed our food. I thought the scallops were beautifully cooked. As always I received a warm welcome.

The food and service are always outstanding. It has a brilliant ambience and definitely worth a visit. There menus have so much choice so there is something for everyone and it is very reasonably priced. I highly recommend it!

Can't fault it at all. We had the fixed price 3course meal. Excellent value. Service was very good and friendly. It was busy and there was a good atmosphere, but even so the service was prompt. It was my birthday and I even had a candle in my apple crumble !

All was lovely except 12 1/2% service charge all ready added to our bill £21 tip 😏Our waiter was very friendly and our food came quickly and we didn't have to wait too long between courses

We had an evening meal in the Bristol branch, a great experience. Excellent atmosphere, service and food. Would also recommend for Coeliacs, the GF menu is excellent.

friendly welcome and service as always. varied and interesting set menu, everyone very happy with their choices, delicious food all round, all dishes presented well.

We were warmly welcomed in Clifton and had a super mea.: well presented, delicious food. It was all promptly served by really nice waiting staff. Definitely be back. Highly recommended!

Excellent meal - the calamari was particularly delicious and that was followed by the Breton chicken with garlic butter - mouthwatering- haven't tasted a chicken quite so chickeny in years - love to know where they get them from. Service as usual was attentive and friendly.

Excellent breakfast. Very friendly service. Great experience. We will definitely look out for Cote in other places. Thank you for a lovely start to the day!

Nothing to complaint about. Good food and good service. The only thing was the surrounding noise, but that is not possible to control any way.

Second time we've been to this restaurant. As the first time, the staff were extremely helpful and very friendly; all smiling ! Good food and warm, buzzing atmosphere
