Although the restaurant was extremely busy at lunch time today, the waitress Zazu was first class in her approach to everything including service and hospitality.

Overall very good, only negative was that the avocado was hard in the tomato salad. Food very good quality but would be nice to have a little more quantity especially for the main course. Service very good as always.

It was great to be sitting outside in your new space! Food good as always! Had never had al dente asparagus!! It was a bit odd, a strange texture.

I've been to this restaurant before and it's always consistently good. From the moment I entered to the moment I left, the friendliness of the staff never falters. The set menus are exceptionally good value and the food is always excellent.

First time venturing to a Cote outside London and this one is no disappointment. The staff is very attentive and friendly as well as very accommodating towards children. The menu is of course the same as other Cote restaurants I'm used to and as consistent in quality.

The restaurant is in a nice location with lovely big windows. We had a seat next to the window for breakfast. The service was good; we were a couple, but larger groups with children and couples with babies also came and everyone seemed to be enjoying the space. I had a vegetarian breakfast and I found it a strange combination of food - the food I received was what had been described on the menu, but it wasn't as I'd pictured it. Next time I would stick with the granola and some pancakes. It said there was avocado and tomatoes, and I'd assumed this would be on toast, but it was actually half a sliced avocado, and a fried tomato. The rest of the breakfast included sauteed spinach, eggs and a vegetarian sausage. It just seemed an odd combination. My partner had the non-vegetarian cooked breakfast and enjoyed that.

No bread with soup you have to pay?! 12.5% service charge on a table for two?! Food lovely but these two pints put me off. Also waitress inexperienced and didn't know a soup spoon fro a dessert spoon which was disappointing.

Arrived at 1700hrs all front glass doors were open fully, we were led to 6 placing table by a very friendly young lady ,who quickly supplied us with menus the menus were being blown off the table by wind blowing thro, open doors ,we asked if doors could be shut but she said because diners were eating outside they could not but would when they finished dining , we moved to a more sheltered table but was advised by same that it was reserved although there was no indication of this. we then moved to another table that was more sheltered, once settled things flowed a lot smoother, waiting was slick and food very good .

Lovely restaurant in a very good position. Manager not very helpful about special offer regarding booking online but it was sorted. Meal good but desserts arrived separately and we were charged for 2 extra desserts on the bill - which was of course sorted out with no problem. Waitresses extremely nice and helpful and will go again but feel overall there are small niggley problems that could be easily sorted.

The staff and service were top rate as usual. My partner's calamari followed by roast duck breast was was perfect.I was however a bit disappointed prawn gratinée starter and with the the escalope De Veau which was a little bland and with no accompaniment, the side dish of the green beans were not al denti but virtually raw. We love the Quakers Friars Cote Brasserie and will return again, but will choose alternative options.

Enjoyable food, but service needs to be worked on. Irritating to be interrupted as we had to give a simple food order twice, the explanation was that the first order was taken by a trainee. Why wasnt he supervised? Also, a request for the crepes to be served on a flat plate rather than the current fashion of a deeper bowl, where the cutlery slides in to it was met with 'I'll try ' .... and failed. Simple request, no effort to meet it. Could do better.
