Excellent consistent service and food, Cote is one of my favourite "chain" restaurants, I especially liked the ambiance, decor and how well presented both the food and the staff are.

On the tourism trail with 3 friends we had booked a 2.30 table and arrived just before 1 because it had started to rain. The restaurant was very busy but pleasant staff found us a table, brought wine and olives while we read the menus and when we ordered the food arrived within a decent time given the busyness, there were enough staff to cope. Food was excellent, I very much enjoyed the chilled vichyssoise, roast loin of veal with interesting veg and seriously caramelised creme caramel yum.

Very quick service and polite staff. But its a bit pushy when it comes to serving drinks. Asking every 2 mins if we want more despite saying several times we didn't.

Very unwelcoming on arrival. Table right opposite food clearing station so we left without eating as it was so noisy there. Very disappointed as we had been looking forward to it

Was our first visit to Cote and was very impressed. Lovely ambiance, friendly and efficient staff and amazing food. Drinks were expensive though so check the prices before you order, we had 2 ports which were £8.50 each! Other than that a very enjoyable experience and would definitely return.

I am a regular visitor to Cote in Canterbury. The food is always good, the lunch and early evening menu is particularly good value. I also love the staff in this branch, always warm and welcoming and friendly. A very relaxed environment. Does get very busy at certain times though, so I always try and book a table.

Very nice three course dinner. My duck breast main was excellent and my other half said his steak was cooked perfectly. The creme brulee was also good. Only downside is they had run out of the starter we wanted, but the alternative suggested was good.

As with all the other Cote restaurants we have eaten in the food was of excellent quality and there was a good choice of meat and fish dishes. The staff were attentive and helpful and there was good selection of wine by the glass. Well placed in the main shopping street with a lovely terrace to sit on too.

Wonderful service, delicious food, amazing value; Cote always delivers! And last night we even had a lovely French waiter (or if he wasn't French he was doing a good impersonation). Great place for a pre theatre meal. The only disappointment was that there was no seabass left (at 6.00 pm).

Food was okay but one of the group had to send her lamb back because it wasn't cooked as she had requested. The duck was reasonable but a bit rubbery. Table was so dark we had to use phones to provide enough light to read the menus! The staff were lovely.

food and service very good, unfortunately we were sat opposite the bar and the noise of the crockery and glasses being put away was immense coupled with the coffee machine marred the experience. Would go to this restaurant again but would refuse to sit in that part of the restaurant as we could not at times converse with ease due to the noise.

We booked a table for an early pre-theatre meal and were delighted with the entire experience. Lovely staff, ambience and great food! So good we returned for brunch the following day!! and were not disappointed - delicious!! Only downside was that trying to book brunch the Quandoo app failed - so I didn't get my 100 points!!
