We waited 35 minutes for the main course and when our meal arrived the pork was cold and undercooked, the waitress was brilliant took our meals away, and the chef agreed it wasn't acceptable. The meal was replaced after 35 minutes and was much better. Sadly the friends we were with had already had theirs, so they were upset we weren't able to eat together. We weren't charged for our meals but it did have a downer on our Christmas celebration.
Great time great service great food thank you
Very enjoyable meal with most attentive staff. Will visit again.
An enjoyable experiance but we found the noise level most uncomfortable. So much so that we would not return. Conversation was most difficult.
Delicious food from the Prestige menu . Staff were very efficient and friendly, very good choice of food from 3 menus.
Overall evening was good. Slightly disappointed that there were multiple items not available and there was a problem with one of the mains but this was resolved with little hassle.
Great food and the service from our waiter was brilliant - thank you Omar
This was my 70th birthday meal with my family but the evening was rather disappointing. It was not up to the normal Cote standard, I expected. Several of the mains we wanted were not available. The service was very slow with long waits between courses. At the end of the meal we still hadn't been given napkins, even though we requested them.
Incredibly busy lunchtime yet the staff were amazing, efficient and extremely professional as well as being quite lovely. We both had steak and it was as good as the specialist steak restaurants that we've been to plus EXCELLENT chips. Many thanks - coming up to our 50th.visit to (various - Bristol Clifton and City Centre;Sloane Square;Farnham; Oxford;Guildford; Manchester etc) Cote and will look forward to our next visit
A very relaxing lunch break from Christmas shopping. My partner and I were warmly welcomed and shown to a brilliant able in the window where we enjoyed the service, food and people watching.
Felt a bit like a canteen was efficient if not too quick.
Lovely atmosphere lovely food service very good very pleased overall thank you
It was really great food. Plenty of variety for vegetarians.
Lovely restaurant &great food .our favourite Saturday lunchtime haunt .best to book ahead this time of year.
Wonderful customer service! Great food! Excellent value! Have never had a bad experience in Cote!
Very good service . Waiter was attentive and helpful. The restaurant was extremely busy and all the staff coped very well. Will certainly return in the new year.
The atmosphere was brilliant in this restaurant along with the service.
Always been great, however; on this occasion steak was cold and had to be returned to be reheated. Left both of our meals out of synch, not the end of the world, but first poor service in numerous visits. Waitress handled the situation as well as can be expected. Shame, no real apology.
The only thing we did not like was the addition of a service charge, we prefer to tip individual staff
Really lovely food. The waiting staff were all very friendly and the service was attentive. Atmosphere was pleasant too despite being surprisingly busy. Thank you for a lovely birthday meal.
Good service, friendly welcoming staff. Good food, tad salty. Buzzy
Great Breakfast meeting, delicious coffee and good value for money.

Lovely relaxed atmosphere combined with friendly excellent service as usual.
An excellent place to pop in for lunch combined with chr istmas shopping.
We’ve been to the one in Clifton, Quakers Friars and in london. Excellent service and food. My wife and I really do enjoy your establishment. The friendliness of staff is most important
Quality of food was great, had a really lovely meal. However, the service was very slow. We waited around 20 minutes for our starter to arrive, then around 40 minutes for our mains to arrive. The restaurant was very busy, however, the length of time we waited for food was disappointing.
Lovely food, brilliant staff, great location, fantastic atmosphere! Will definitely go back.
Lovely food, even better service Gluten free options were excellent
We love Cote never fails to give good value, brilliant. Our waiter Daniel was excellent, thank you for another great evening
Lovely visit for my husband's birthday. Great food and service.
Cote Brasserie Quakers Friars is the best place to eat in Bristol in my opinion, portion sizes are perfect, the food is excellent and very good value for money, the staff are friendly and efficient. The only thing which lets it down is the level of noise which is extremely loud as it is a very popular venue. As a hearing aid user (aids tend to amplify background sound as well as conversation) I find this extremely annoying and it detracts from what would otherwise be a most enjoyable experience.
Booked a few weeks ago and were given a table in the window. Great service, food per normal. You always tick the boxes!
started off well and the food was fine. A large party came in during our meal and we had less attention from then on . We had to wait a while to order desserts although once ordered they came very quickly
An excellent value for money breakfast within a good atmosphere
Friendly and attentive staff, lovely atmosphere and a great breakfast.
This the first time here it was lovely will be back soon
Lovely food. Especially pleased with the professionalism of the servicing staff. Made it a very enjoyable and relaxing evening.
Always good food in a restaurant with a great atmosphere!
Lovely helpful staff who made us and our newborn baby very welcome.
A great meal with attentive team members. Shame it was so noisy
Absolutely love coming to Cote for dinner. Food is incredible and menus great value for money. The restaurant does not feel like a chain restaurant at all. It's such a treat coming here without breaking the bank!!
Lunch with a friend, excellent food and service as always nothing is to much trouble for the staff. Well done Cote
Really nice food, good service and reasonable prices. Good selection of wines by the glass.
Lovely meal and attentive staff but would prefer a little more privacy and more time to choose our food. Felt the waiter was always hovering around frequently asking us for our meal choice. Keen for us to leave. Also, I’d prefer to add my own tip rather than being charged service charge.
We are Four friends who Dined early evening. Service was excellent, as always. Two had duck and two had beef bourguignon, both meals cooked and presented perfectly
Quite noisy and not much atmosphere. Two of us had the ordinary set lunch menu two had the prestige. My friends who ate from the prestige were more pleased with their meals, the others were pretty bland. I guess it shows you get what you pay for. I couldn't help but compare to Raymond Blanc's Brasserie which has sadly closed in Bristol but was far superior for a similar price.
