First time. Nice welcome by the team and seated quickly. Asked for the French cidre but they had run out. Went for the French beer which was good and also free because they had run out of the cidre! First course was the ‘special’ mushroom feuillete which was mediocre however the cod loon for the main course was really good. My friend had the calamari which was nice as was his duck and cherry sauce. Good service throughout the evening and a nice vibe. Would definitely go again.

A friend and I had lunch together to celebrate my birthday and were as always greeted warmly by the staff as we are both regular diners. We had a Kir Royale as a free drink which we both really enjoyed. As my friend did not want a large meal she had 2 starters, the Crab mousse and a mushroom dish. I had a blue cheese and walnut starter followed by chicken Caesar salad. The meals were tasty and well presented and delivered to the table smartly after ordering. One of us had a crème caramel dessert followed by mint tea for one and coffee for the other. The reason I did not give this experience 6 stars is because the service was slow at the end of the meal, we had asked for the bill but although it arrived no one brought the pay point machine so eventually we paid at the cash desk. A minor hitch but one of us had another appointment so we needed to leave when we asked for the bill.

We asked for something alternative to the main menu and from the phone call where I requested this through to the entire customer journey on the evening, the service was exemplary. This has become our favourite restaurant.in town, partly due to the food and even more so, the outstanding care and kindness shown by all the team at Cote. Thank you, it means so much to us :)

I don't like having a service charge automatically added to the bill. I want to decided to tip or not and how much. Having had a good time ,paying the bill is always going to be the last thing and it's very important to keep the good feelings going even at the end of the night as a lovely evening can quickly become disappointing

A group of 7 of us went to celebrate a friend's birthday and the staff went above and beyond to make it a very special evening. I'd taken balloons for the table which they put on before we arrived but also put up some extra banners and confetti off their own back. When we arrived they gave us a free glass of fizz to start the celebrations which was a lovely surprise and our waiter was really attentive throughout the evening. All the staff even came and sung happy birthday when we asked them to bring the cake out. It was such an wonderful evening and the food was fabulous as well.

we found the food very good, but they did have a problem with the main course, it took far to long to be served, I suspect the order got misplaced. However, they did put things right to our satisfaction, we will return in the future.
