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!!

Enjoyable as always (service, ambience etc) but my wife's meal was a little lacking in flavour for once, hence the '5'. Good house wine for a reasonable price. Birthday 'Kir' much appreciated!

Amazing food and drink! We took our time so service was longer but we were too busy chatting and the staff let us enjoy the evening. They kindly put my birthday flowers in water and looked after us well. The food was so good and definitely worth the money! I would highly recommend this place. We will be back again, thank you!

My wife and I were recommended to Côte Brasserie and have not been disappointed. We have visited for breakfast lunch AND dinner, each time finding the same courteous and efficient attention to detail. We were pleased to accept the invitation to a free bottle of wine for signing up with Côte and amazingly found that the Chateau Laulerie served to us was a wine we know well, having visited Monsieur Dubard at his vineyard near Bergerac several times. Great choice by Côte! Top marks team!!

We really enjoyed our visits to the Cote Brasserie and thought the food was delicious. The service is always very good and the staff are obviously well trained and pleasant. It is always busy which shows how popular it is and has a great atmosphere! I would certainly recommend it and am going again next week!

The food was EXCELLENT, but we will probably not be going again as the loos are not at all convenient. 43 stair-steps away from where we were seated which was a problem for 2 of our party. Service was polite and friendly but slow, considering that we'd wanted a pre-theatre meal. Also disappointing was to be told that of the (only) 3 beers they sell, the one my husband would have liked to try wasn't chilled. Pretty unbelievable when you consider the widely-forecast prediction of unusually warm weather. With so much competition in Canterbury, this branch really needs to 'up' their game. The background music was intrusive rather than ambient.

Good aptmosphere, pleasant and efficient staff plenty of choice on the menu. I would normally score a 5 or a 6 for this restaurant , however on this occasion we were a little disappointed by or lunch choice . my wife's starter choice of mushrooms on brioche was a little light on mushrooms and our choice of minute steak with frys at a £2 supplement per plate could have been improved with a salad garnish or a few green beans for balance and value. Also the service was a little slow on the steak , after we chased it and it arrived it had not been caramelised or rested consequently the plate was quite wet with meat juices.

The staff, service and food were all excellent. However the bar seems to be positioned in an awkward place and the tables are quite small. With 2 highchairs and buggies it was a bit squashed.

I have been in restaurants where items on the menu could not be provided due to popularity of the dish but I have never arrived for a restaurant booking to be turned away because the gas had run out and they could no longer cook food! Disappointing for the 7 of us and not quite expected from Cote Brasserie which has always been very good. Will not be put off going back but for this occasion I have to rate it as very poor.

The service was at best “patchy”. We had warm welcome and drinks arrived on schedule, but thereafter our server was hard to find when needed. One of our number ordered moules provencal as a starter and spaghetti alla marinera as a main course. The seafood component of the latter seemed mainly to be the same mussels as he had in his starter. A good waiter might have warned of this. We shall go back again but today's experience was rather disappointing.

The food was very good (plenty of choice too) and the staff were friendly and obliging. Although I had booked for two, there was no problem in changing it to four. A very pleasant experience! A pity about the climb up two floors (44 steps) to get to the toilet!
