Food good as always but service a little slow - we might have had desserts but not offered for such a long time that we had lost interest!

This was a very poor visit to the Cote Brasserie. The service was efficient but for the 15% service charge not worthy. There were two of us. I ordered the Moules as a starter. By some way the smallest portion I have ever eaten. Most of the shells were empty and the size of the mussels were tiny. We were offered bread but this would be extra so we refrained. Surely a single piece of bread should come with the moules? The main course was Bretton Chicken. Two small pieces arrived on a plate with a very small portion of French fries and some limp green leaves. The chicken was flavourless. I ordered a coffee which was good and well made. my friend order squid and again the portion size was tiny and tasted like cheap frozen supermarket squid. The ribeye selected from the so called premium menu included and extra charge. The steak was overcooked and the size was the smallest one I have ever seen. We had a couple of beers and the whole bill was just under £70 by the time the 15% service was added. This was the worst meal I have had out in the past 2 years or so and I will never visit CB again. Poor and mean. You will make money but I would be amazed if people ever come back. I have had better chicken and chips from KFC and a lot cheaper. We felt ripped off and we left the restaurant hungry and headed for the takeaway. Colin and Ian 21/05/2019 at 16:30

Our experience at Côte Brasserie began with a warm welcome, and continued with friendly, enthusiastic service. The food was freshly cooked, beautifully presented and tasted wonderful. The atmosphere was relaxed and customers seemed to feel very much at home. Staff found time to engage with diners, and when it came to settling the bill the manager was keen to hear our feedback. The overall experience was one of dining in a familiar family-run restaurant where you felt you belonged.

Not the best Cote meal I’ve had to be honest. The staff were clearly very busy and there were delays/confusions on food coming out which left two of us waiting for bits to arrive before starting so it was a little bit colder than I’d have liked.

I requested a nice table - specifically because it was my daughters birthday. The restaurant was not busy and we were made to sit at the back near the exit for the bins. Even though the rest of the restaurant was pretty empty on the other side and at the front. Plus a bin was taken out by our table trying to hide it by covering it with a Napkin! Which does not hide the smell. Plus the back door was left open so a cold drought was coming in - had to be asked to close it. 2 waitresses decided it was a good idea to also stand on a chair and organise the glasses at the workstation whilst we were eating our lunch. Altogether very disappointing & we chose cote over other restaurants. I would think twice now about coming. Waste of time making a request.

A lovely meal but our wine order was too acidic; great response by the Manager to immediately agree and change the wine, but in recommending a more expensive selection I would expect to pay for what I ordered. Picky, but just how I was trained and would have dealt with the issue.

Really great food, served efficiently and without too much hassle of fussing. Our waiter was really professional and a credit to Cote. My only moan about Cote is the limited beer selection. There are some superb French micro breweries and I would be happy to help you select two/three to add to the menu!
