We had very enjoyable New Year's Eve meal and thought it was excellent value for money. The one disappointment was that the Gravadlax had run out. The staff were working very hard but managed to be attentive and friendly.

Excellent food at a good price.Surroundings and staff perfect. One small complaint, we had to ask for the background music to be lowered as we were under the speaker. All done immediately as requested

Despite being very "Christmas" busy the staff were very attentive and helpful. We took our 2 young granddaughters for the first time and they enjoyed the experience and loved the frites. The chicken and walnut salad however wasn't as nice as usual but apparently the cod goujons were good.

Probably one of the best meals I've had a Cote Canterbury - which is no exaggeration as they are always excellent. We had French onion soup for starters - perfect , and then seasonal chicken with traditional potatoes and greens. First class. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone - without hesitation.

Cote in Canterbury is always good and yesterday was up to the usual standard. The service was good and the food good, but best of all is the buzzy atmosphere.

This restaurant is very good. There is a good selection of food at reasonable prices. It is in the Centre of Canterbury and near the Cathedral and main shops in a pedesrianised area. Service is generally very good, but on this occasion I was overlooked, despite being first in the queue and having pre booked.

Wanted to switch off, sit back and enjoy a good meal - as always Côte Canterbury delivered- staff were wonderful; warm,genuine, informed and considerate and the food was perfect. A bottle of wine and the warm and cosy atmosphere made it exactly what we wanted.

Chose this restaurant for our pre theatre meal as it is Coeliac accredited. The gluten free menu was large and my food arrived with a little ‘gluten free’ flag in it so no mistakes could be made by serving staff. Excellent, well cooked food and friendly staff.

Always enjoy dining at Côte - and the new starter (pork croquettes with poached egg and Hollandaise sauce) was fabulous. Service was great; just disappointed by the unnecessarily noisy group at the next table.

The food was superb - I had the pork croquettes with poached egg and Hollandaise sauce as a starter, and it was sublime. Wonderful steak frites and a delicious crême brûlée for dessert. Service was excellent, ambience wonderful and the value for money was excellent. Highly recommended.

You never enter Cote Brasserie without a warm & friendly welcome and the service throughout is faultless. One knows what to expect with the food and it rarely fails to please. Would always recommend this restaurant.

We recently went to the restaurant with some friends who had never been to Cote before. It was a really successful evening. They are French and very much felt at home because of the décor and atmosphere as well as the food. For starters we chose calamari and saucisson sec - the portions were generous and the quality of the food excellent. For the main course, two of us chose the sea bream which was delicious, partly because of the addition of fennel seeds but also because it was a good size and thoroughly cooked. Our partners chose the Poulet Breton and Boeuf Bourgignon both of which they enjoyed immensely. We finished off with Dame Blanche, Mousse au Chocolat and two portions of Tarte Citron. We are pleased that there is such a wide selection of desserts on the menu. The bottle of Cote du Rhone to accompany the meal was tasty and good value as it worked well with the fish, chicken and meat dishes. The meals arrived quickly and our waitress was helpful and welcoming. These were friends we had not seen for a long time and the congenial atmosphere and good food made this a very memorable occasion.

This restaurant is rightly popular and although we had booked, we had to eat on the first floor level - which was peaceful. Food was excellent and the staff took the time to chat and smiled despite my friend's rather corny comments. I do not tire of this place.

Lovely food and service. I can only regret that the bread who used to be served for free is now subject of charge ( not at all the French way of life ). Also a gratuity of 12.5% is automatically added to your bill but be aware it is optional. you can choose to donate what you want.

I go here fairly regularly with a friend. It’s a busy restaurant in centre of Canterbury, and convenient for shops and the Cathedral. Good choice of menu and good value food. Staff always pleasant and friendly, even when very busy.
