Côte Chelmsford

So here we are again, which says how much we enjoy a meal here. Staff are always lovely. I had booked and asked for a booth, even though only 2 of us, and lucky for us not too busy and booth ready and waiting. Food as always quick and tasty. The sauvignon blanc is great and they make it nice and cold for me, because I am fussy about it :-). Nice full bucket of ice and I am happy! I had pate and then fish pie. Only criticism is that I prefer the skin off my fish in a fish pie since it can't be crispy. But I can take it out, just a bit lazy and prefer to have it done. John had specials of tiger prawns and seared tuna for a main, which he likes rare. He asked for it to be rare and it was done exactly to his taste. We shared a portion of cheese which was plenty for us. Lovely Friday night out for a change. Be back soon.

Staff were excellent. Efficient and friendly. Food was really very good. Wife tried your elder flower gin mix cocktail which was very good had to drag her away after two! There is a really nice ambience in your establishment ...well done we will be back ..regards Ed & Jan

Superb quality food loved the Seafood Linguine, generous portion sizes & great service, very good value for money will definitely visit again soon.

Always good at Cote Chelmsford, good food, good staff; for us, the best place to eat. Wiil be coming back even if there isn't always G & T for lunch!

Booking was easy. Bottle of complimentary wine arrived without us having to specifically mention it. Food was fantastic! Great selection. Something for everyone. Service was good. They served us coffees even when the restaurant had emptied out.

Fantastic service and food, very attentive waitress. Amazing cocktails from the summer menu- elderflower gin and cucumber tonic. Great wine too. Tuna steak done medium rare to perfection.

Vinnie and the team were brilliant as every; wonderful well cooked food and great service

Our experience was overall very good, the staff helpful and friendly. The starters and wine were excellent as was the service however one of the main meals I.e minute steak had to be returned as really tough but there was no bother and another was given. This also was not edible and staff very apologetic and were more than willing for another meal to be given but we felt not necessary and we appreciated the offer. The manager was fantastic and said there would be no charge for our meals and drinks which we thought was a really nice gesture however we wanted to pay and eventually paid for just the bottle wine. We have been to Cote’s Brasserie on several occasions and will certainly not be put off by one incident. We will definitely continue to frequent the restaurant in the future.

Excellent customer service .although restaurant was busy we still had an very good experience ,the gin cocktails were fabulous. Our main course chicken was very tasteful

A fairly regular visitor, I love this restaurant.....delicious attractively presented food (last night I had cod wrapped in French bacon followed by peach crumble), at a reasonable price and served by helpful smiling staff.....what's not to like?

Four of us ate from the premium menu. All of the dishes were really tasty, as were the side dishes. The atmosphere and service were both excellent.

Whatever the occasion, be it lunch, dinner or even just coffee & pastries the overall customer experience at Cote is always exceptional. The staff are a delight and the quality of food & service is, in my opinion, one of the best in Chelmsford

Good service and usual standard with food. One noisy table with very young child who made themselves heard through out the restaurant. Staff attentive to resolving the difficulty.

Outstanding once again. Brilliant service and food. 10/10. A lovely warm welcome. The duck breast, chocolate fondant and elderflower gin were all delicious. Thank you Côte

Staff at this branch are always very friendly and obliging. The food is reliable too: good choice, good portions and good quality. What’s not to like?

Great food, friendly staff and good value for money. We come here regularly and are always happy with the service we get. I really recommend it.

A lovely lunch for a colleague’s birthday. We were treated to a round of complimentary Kir Royales, and the birthday girl had a candle and lovely birthday message with her dessert. Really fantastic service which could not be faulted, and a lovely meal to boot. Great!

We’ve been to this restaurant many times and it has always been excellent, but last night they really let the side down. There were uncleared tables when we arrived (never a good sign) and the service, quite simply, wasn’t sharp enough. Only two serving staff on duty who didn’t have time (or the training) to keep an eye on every table - we had to attract their attention more than once when we needed something. They were friendly enough but lacked efficiency. However, the food was as good as usual.

Booked a table for lunch and once again was not disappointed with both the food and service. Good choice on the menu and will be returning in the not too distant future to try something different.

A nice relaxed atmosphere, with efficient, friendly service. The menu is not pretentious nor particularly extensive, but it would be a struggle for someone to not find something to their taste. Our meals were well cooked and presented. Wine list again is not large, but there is something to suit most palates and pockets. We particularly liked the tap-water service on a warm evening, the "bottle" was regularly replaced throughout the meal.

Fantastic service, great tasty food. Good selection of drinks and air-con which with today's heat was very welcome. Friendly staff for whom nothing was too much trouble. A thoroughly enjoyable time. Would recommend. Certainly will be coming back again.

Nice surroundings, good food well presented and good service. The five of us at our table all really enjoyed our visit and would definitely return.

Excellent food outstanding service, every time we visit it's always top service. They give you plenty of time to relax and enjoy your meal you feel unhurried.

Very friendly restaurant and helpful staff. Food is constantly good with different specials each month. We had a lovely cold bottle of sauvignon blanc with our starter and main, sharing a dessert. Lots of choice and all good.

Good quality food cooked to perfection , and served by staff who were happy to serve us.The layout and decor added to a great experience.

Excellent; good food, excellent service. We did not have to wait long for our starters, mains or desserts. The head waiter / manager is excellent. He is friendly and runs a very good restaurant.

Enjoyed my 6 hour lunch with my good friend. Didn’t want to leave. Great food and great service. Returning on Wednesday to try the August menu.

The staff were very friendly and helpful and the food was delicious. There was a good choice of food on the menu and the set price menu was excellent value.

Servic was great. the staff were really friendly and attentive. Food was delicious. Definitely recommend this restaurant and will be returning to try more dishes

As always great service and food. Lovely atmosphere and friendly staff. Never disappoints. Staff always attentive and you don't feel rushed. Food always lovely and hot

Great choice of food, all served over the time you decide to eat, . Good service with a smile from the efficient and friendly staff.

Love Cote Chelmsford. service is A1 along with the food. We have eaten many times and not a bad experience at anytime. This goes across all Cotes restaurants. We have introduced many people to them and returned time and time again. Thank you

Great service great food delicious wine fab atmosphere what more could you want . Have eaten at this restaurant many times consistent higher standards at every visit

The food and service were excellent as usual. My husband did wonder if the ice cream portions had been reduced as his coupe noir seemed smaller than usual. He was offered more but declined, simply wanting to point it out fof r future reference, and the cost was deducted from our bill.

Such a lovely place to eat. The menu is superb French cuisine, the staff are attentive and the atmosphere great on a warm summers evening. I particularly liked the cod dish and have become addicted to the calamari starter. Thanks to Vinnie and the team for another enjoyable and relaxing dining experience.

Great food, great atmosphere, only thing I would say is music to be turned up a little more as I could hear everything going on around me and can be quite distracting but overall a great place to eat!

We have had yet another really nice meal at Cote. The service is excellent and the atmosphere is really nice, relaxing and its nice not to be surrounded by noisy children!

Had a lovely evening together. Picked from the specials menu. Food was excellent without being over priced. The staff were excellent and friendly good value for money

Very good fresh food. Very good service and all staff were excellent and professional. The ros’e wine was not cold enough but the manager changed it with out eny fuss for two large glasses that was well chilled Robert Morley

Food is always so lovely as are the staff. Without a doubt the best breakfast menu in Chelmsford my son will not go anywhere else

Enjoyed lunch for my birthday and started with kir royale with compliments of Cote. Food and service excellent. Never disappointed and will visit again soon

The quality was of the usual high standard I receive at Cote Brasserie and the staff were friendly as usual. I have eaten most things on the menu and enjoy thyem all but may be we are ready for a new dish with interesting vegetables?

Fabulous meal, very tasty as always and of course, brilliant, friendly, helpful, superb service! Thank you very much. See you soon 😊 hopefully very soon anyway.

Excellent service and wonderful staff - we also watched Laura deal with a difficult situation and she did it so well with both respect and firmness - good to see - looking after Cote and her customers Niko as always very helpful and pleasant - could not ask for more

Excellent, as always, a cut above the rest with a real sense of style and great service. How they do it at such a competitive price point amazes me.

The table was booked for an 81st Birthday, the meal was exemplary, particularly as the recipient has been in the Hotel and Catering Industry all his life, therefore not always easy to please, however this meal did please. A~t the outset of the meal the manager offered a glass of bubbly to celebrate on him, therefore we were somewhat surprised to find it charged on the bill at the end of the meal! Otherwise a great evening.

the restaurant is central and easy to access. The atmosphere is lovely and is very clean. The stuff is attentive and friendly and food is tasty.

Very attentive friendly staff, fabulous breakfast and extremely good value for money. Always love the Cote ambience and no doubt will be back very soon.

Great food, service and atmosphere as usual. Our party of six mostly ordered lighter dishes from the July menu which were just right for the very hot weather
