We visited today for breakfast to celebrate Father's Day. The food, whilst good quality, was all cold when served. The coffees were also not hot. Really disappointing. The restaurant had also run out of white bread.

We had such a pleasant evening - my daughter's birthday. Shown to a super table - no nearby noise - very helpful pleasant staff - loved the special offer of the free Gin and Tonic - got us off to a very good start! All the food was good - we all had different things and the vegetarian was extremely happy to have his own menu. We always enjoy Cote and this time was just as good as ever.

A pre-theatre dinner with a two course menu is very good value. However, last night was somewhat disappointing in comparison to their usual high standard. Starter of Ratatouille & goats cheese on sourdough was only just warm & sparse with very little goats cheese. The side for the main, green beans, was inedible & had to be returned. Hard to spoil boiling beans! But replaced by creamed spinach very rapidly. Table service was very good.

As usual it was excellent. Our booked table was ready when we got there. The sword fish and complimentary chocolate mouse were both excellent. The free chilled water was all we needed to drink and the bill was modest. What’s more they had turned off the music which made conversation much easier.

The gluten free menu provided an enormous choice (which I greatly appreciated). We both had the king prawn gratinee to start. For mains, I had the lamb rump from the main menu (not the special, though I was tempted) and my wife had the risotto. For dessert I had the chocolate mousse and my wife had the creme caramel. All the food was absolutely delicious. The wines were excellent too but the highlight was definitely the gin & tonic with elderflower liquor and cucumber which was the best G&T I have ever tasted. The service was faultless and friendly. My gluten-free requirements were fully recognised. All-in-all this was the perfect birthday lunch for me and we will definitely be returning to the Cote. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

As usual, a superb lunch with my husband and I both choosing from the seasonal specials. The monkfish and the side dish of Jerusalem artichoke gratin were delicious. Can't wait to return to either Cambridge or Bury St Edmunds Cotes. Linda and John Walker

Reliably good.Visited on mothers day,early evening with husband and his mum.We go to Cote regularly and its always reliable.Great atmosphere.Service was a little slower this time as very busy but waiting times were fine, would highly recommend. We always ask for a table near the front as the view of Cambridge life is great. Highly recommended. There was a great value set menu, including a Kir royale, lovely!

Our first visit to this branch. It was a special occasion so when I asked for a good table, the staff obliged without hesitation. All the staff were absolutely lovely which contributed greatly to our evening. The service was excellent and the food in the main very good. Unfortunately there were a couple of problems. My husband's starter of smoked salmon came with distinctly stale bread but when he mentioned this the charge for the starter was immediately removed from the bill, which was pleasantly surprising! Less so was the rare ribeye my son ordered, which was then presented as medium sirloin. A quick check with the kitchen and we were told all was well. My son was asked to check his steak and he said it was fine as all our meals had been served and he didn't want to delay us all, but his meat was definitely not rare, which detracted somewhat from his, and therefore our, enjoyment. Nevertheless it was a pleasant and enjoyable evening and I would happily return.

Greeted warmly when we entered the restaurant and given our complimentary cocktails without any nudging from us .. food wonderful - as always - only upset was a very very truculent and loud toddler who screamed for the entirety of our visit, but that wasn't the fault of the restaurant or staff.

Our local Cote Brasserie is Norwich, which is consistently excellent. We ate today in Cambridge after meeting up with some family members and were very dissapointed overall with our lunch experience. The service was very slow and the restaurant seemed under staffed. The waiter who served us was very stand-offish and disinterested when taking our order. We waited a very long time for plates to be cleared between courses. The food was ok but only warm at best and seemed as though as though it had been waiting for a while under a hot lamp, before being served. Overall not the quality of service or food that we have been used to receiving at our local Cote.

We had a lovely dinner to catch up with our daughter. Staff were solicitous but not intrusive. Food was delicious: lamb beautifully cooked with delicious vegetables. Good creme brulee, although top could have been harder! An excellent medium priced restaurant suitable for a family dinner as well as a more festive occasion. Well located near the centre of Cambridge.

Excellent food, but a large piece of walnut shell found in my salad, which was worrying. Service was acceptable, but not as warm as usual. On receiving the bill we realised the birthday Kir Royales had not been deducted.

Donald S.5 years ago · 2 reviews

Altogether, a splendid experience - as always when we have come to eat. A slight niggle over the volume of the music which we became aware of as we were about halfway through our dessert course (we were sitting right beneath one of the speakers); we mentioned it to our waiter and he said he would attend to it. The noise continued to the end of our meal. Five stars anyway, but the noise level of music played is a sensitive issue and generally, the lower the level, the better(I think).
