Excellent food, service and ambience. Never fails to deliver onall three elements.
As usual excellent food and service. Staff always friendly and helpful.. lovely to see happy families with young children but will probably book later next time for more quieter
Nice food and quick service. It is one of the best places to go in Chelmsford
This is the best restaurant in Chelmsford. The welcome is always genuinely warm and friendly, the service excellent and the food fresh and delicious. I have never had a bad meal...can't say that about other restaurants in the town.
I have been to Cote just for coffee and cake, breakfast and lunch on many occasions. The staff are always brilliant, the food fabulous and it is very reasonably priced for the quality.
Excellent meal yet again at Cote. Loved the free drink, very refreshing. Great service as always. A brilliant way to end the week. Thank you

Brilliant breakfast as always.... just love Cote. The menus change monthly, the food is cooked and presented consistently well, and the staff are just brilliant...
Staff Very attentive and helpful don’t like the service charges should up to customer to leave the amount he she wishes otherwise very good thank you
Amazing service made my parents anniversary breakfast very special. Food was perfect and was served piping hot. Nothing was too much trouble. Will definitely return.
As always a very enjoyable lunch with friends, Cote never disappoints, great food, friendly and efficient staff and very good value for money, we’ll be back.
The food is always good but my first criticism ever today was the service. Our waitress seemed moody and even slightly rude. The restaurant wasn’t at all busy, so it wasn’t that she was rushed off her feet. She didn’t even clear our empty cocktail glasses from the table before or after our meal. In fact they were still there when we paid the bill! The manager was pleasant as always though. The service is usually fantastic but I felt today it wasn’t very good. Sadly that impacts on the atmosphere.
We thought the fixed price menus were good value for a good choice of quality food. We were made welcome by staff. Unfortunately, there were a couple of errors with our order and one led to a delay with our mains. It was just as well that portion sizes of starters are generous!
This is by far the best restaurant in Chelmsford both for service and quality of food. On arrival we are always greeted by lovely staff who could not do more for us, the food is always beautifully cooked and the service impeccable. We love Cote even choosing to have lunch to celebrate our wedding there - where we were thoroughly spoiled by the team. We can not recommend Cote enough - it’s the restaurant we return to time and again
Always a pleasure. ..our favourite chain restaurant... always consistent and service is excellent. .... We love the informal elegance of cote restaurants. .. and food is always hot! !!! 😊 👍
We dined here on Monday. Staff & food where excellent . We certainly outstayed our time here but there was no rush for us to leave.
We had a fantastic night, celebrating my twin daughters 21st birthday, we were are party of six, all of us had a three course meal with drinks. All the food was of a very high standard, excellent throughout, as was the service, the manager and all the staff went out of their way to make the evening very special. We will definitely be returning very soon.
Blood cocktail was lovely. Service fantastic . Lovely meal . Will be back soon. Bruce was very welcoming as were all the staff. Great ambience. Recommend the mussels.
The food was very good as almost always I had the Pork Belly which was the best there is, my wife had mussels which she seemed to thoroughly enjoy
We enjoyed an excellent lunch at the Cote Brasserie, Chelmsford. The service was excellent and the food, to be honest, far better than expected. I would recommend this restaurant and my friends and I will definitely return.
Dried out food left under the hot light for too long and surly waiter. Realised why they didn’t really care when 12.5% service automatically added. Won’t be returning.
As always a great evening , Good food and atmosphere!!!! Staff attentive as ever, always happy to help. Will be back soon and thsbk you, see you again. X
Excellent choice, very good food, very friendly and helpful staff xx
There was a party of ladies who were quiet rowdy - not Cote’s fault. Always wonderful food and friendly staff. Our favourite chain restaurant in Chelmsford
Best Breakfast in Chelmsford! Well cooked food of a high quality. Served efficiently by pleasant staff. Always a good experience. Have returned many times and have never been disappointed.
Lovely atmosphere, friendly and helpful staff. On every visit food has been the same great standard and good value for money. We had a very enjoyable meal.
Excellent meal and service as always....thank you!!! Only slight niggle was the French Onion soup was so hot i was almost unable to eat it, finishing it ages after the rest of our party.
Excellent and friendly service. Lovely breakfast including coffee and fresh orange juice. Highly recommended.
Today was a family lunch for four and we dined from the Set Lunch Menu. Despite the restaurant being very busy we enjoyed great service. All three courses were excellent and well presented. We should do this more often.
Never disappointed with the food here. Best fillet steak in Essex.
Oh gosh, it was beautiful, the staff make you feel welcome from the second you walk through their door. They have patience with you and always maintain their good customer service. The food is so fresh and very well cooked so good for value for money. I defo will be going back for sure.
Had a really nice evening the food was excellent, with good service, everything was as I would wish for. No complaints at all. Many thanks.

Excellent food and good friendly service. There's always a nice atmosphere; people enjoying a good lunch in good company so what's not to like. Thanks.
Throughly enjoyed. Complimentary cocktail went down well - nice touch Food promptly served and very nice I only fault Cote for not having draft beer available or at least larger bottles of it -5 little everyday lagers came to £20 😕
Welcome wasn't up to usual standard. Restaurant was very hot and main course was not as described.
Always great service for my whole family!! Love this place ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Excellent lunch at Cote in Chelmsford. Ate from the set menu, really good choices. The Asparagus soup I am told was lovely and I certainly enjoyed the asparagus Risotto. As always staff efficient and friendly. We'll be back...
We had a wonderful time. It was my in-laws first time here and they said they would definitely come again...food was outstanding, we love this restaurant
Received a warm welcome on arrival, delicious food, very friendly staff, excellent service, good ambience, not overly expensive - we had a very enjoyable dining experience.
Started off with table between door and toilet. Had booked a month prior but people walking in off street being offered better tables. Eventually moved. Then long wait to be served. Followed by long wait for starters. When they did come we were told the kitchen thought we had order everything together. Hadn’t even gotten half way through when mains appeared. Mains went back and then another long wait for them. When they arrived steaks were tough. Epic fail for what was supposed to be a romantic birthday dinner. With so much competition hard to see us ever going back
Cote Chelmsford continues to live up to our highest expectations for a good dining experience. Love the choice of traditional French cooking, freshly prepared and served in a calm friendly atmosphere. We especially enjoyed the May specials of poussin and salmon with asparagus. Thanks to Laura and her staff for making a good evening even better.

Lovely meal good value for money staff very attentive. Just 2 little things...Shepherds pie has carrots in the pie but is also served with a side of carrots so carrot overload but they would have changed the side if we had asked. Second thing chicken dish delicious but the dijonaise overpowered everything so dont eat it !
Loved it! Could not recommend it more, they truly spoilt my fiancé for his birthday. Food was delightful service was brilliant can’t wait for our next visit
A very pleasant first on Friday lunchtime. Unfortunately the steak was not good but to the restaurant's credit the cost was removed from the bill without even having to ask. The service was unrushed and excellent with the only problem being our inability to hear and understand our initial waiter.
Had a lovely meal for my partner’s birthday. Service excellent without being intrusive and food was amazing. We’ll be back! Thanks for a memorable evening Côte!
Excellent service from the time we arrived. Lucas was a great waiter and nothing was too much trouble. Three of our party were gluten intolerant and the dedicated menu was excellent.. We had a great evening.
I love having a meal at Cote. The atmosphere is calm and easy. It is the ideal place to sit, eat and chat. Thank you
Great atmosphere, friendly staff, good service and fabulous food. Will definitely be back..
Brillliant Food was excellent Service was absolutely famtastic Will definitely go back soon Xx
Vinnie the manager was fantastic. We arrived and he led us straight to a booth knowing full well our reservation name before we even told him. After 10 minutes, 3 glasses of prosecco arrived - on the house. Great guy. Attentive and alert, happy and genuinely interested in your experience. Said goodbye to nearly every individual who left. Fabulous fabulous service. Couldn't fault. Food was good too.
We visited Cote Chelmsford with our relatives from Yorkshire before going to the theatre. Good food and excellent service. Would thoroughly recommend and we will be back soon.
