Côte Cheltenham

As usual, we had a superb evening in what we believe to be one of Cheltenham's most delightful restaurants. From the moment we arrived and were shown to our table by Charlotte, the evening went superbly well. Excellent staff and really well prepared food. Perfect!

Good food attentive service a regular place for me family and friends, always busy,best to book. A great venue and easy to get to in Cheltenham

.no benefit to us to have free wine. There were 4 of us having set menu at lunchtime so free bottle not allowed we were looking forward to it!

Lunchtime meal was excellent value. The food was delicious and portion sizes good. The service was a little slow as the restaurant was very busy....and the tip is already added for you so no real opportunity to reflect the views on service in the payment. All round I would recommend this restaurant highly.

Good location, lovely view from top window. Nice staff, good food. Good value. Don't like service charge being put on bill, would give tip anyway

Always a pleasure to go to Cote. Menu choices were sufficiently extensive and the food was excellent as usual. Service was very good as usual with special mention needed for very good service from Denise.

We came for a champagne breakfast on Mothering Sunday.We found it tremendous value for money,as we always do at Cote in Cheltenham.The staff are very professional,always attentive and amiable.We will see you very soon. Thank you once again. Tom Madden

Beautifully presented restaurant in lovely old bank building. Staff were prompt and very courteous, punctual service, great food. Selected from the lunchtime special menu, excellent value. Will return.

Service very slow, and added 12.5 per cent to bill for service! Food very good when it arrived though. Usual standard and as expected. May have been a one off but need more staff to provide adequate service.

Great food and good service but the very small table in what felt like a corridor lost it a point. Have been before and would definitely return. Exceptional salad!

We have been several times and have not been able to fault anything, what a joy to have such a reliable dining venue. We look forward to our next visit.

Always great food and service within a lovely environment, a very comprehensive menu with good choices of both food and wine, very pleasant and helpful staff.

Nice place, food was quite good but portion size could have been a little more generous. Service included in the bill at 12.5% seemed a little excessive for a quick and small main meal.

Great food as always, staff very attentive and look after you nothing was to much trouble.Even though it was busy we were not kept waiting .We will be back

As always the food was delicious, the service excellent. The menu changes frequently enough for there always to be something new to try. A great Birthday lunch.

Food was good as always but, although our starter arrived in good time, we then waited a very, very long time for our main course. Our waitress chased it up but staff then arrived with someone else's order and we waited a further time for our meals. Although they were busy, it was Cheltenham Jazz Festival, other people were getting their meals served much quicker. As it was we had to forego our dessert to get to the concert in time. Disappointing. However the plus side was that we were not charged for my meal and my husband had a complimentary glass of wine. Overall I felt they responded positively but I know my husband will be reluctant to go back soon unfortunately.

Excellent meal and attentive service as ever. The boudin noir starter was particularly good. I would certainly have that again. My only problem was with the new online booking system. I had to phone the restaurant to check that my booking had been received as I didn't receive an email confirmation.

We regularly go to the Cheltenham restaurant, however tonight was a bit on the slower side. We are great fans normally...great food, service and value for money . Tonight they seemed a bit short staffed etc that we had to ask for extra drinks and plates & glasses were not cleared. We still had a nice meal but just not as good as normal.

A very enjoyable lunch. Very good service and atmosphere. Thank you. Good choice of menu. We particularly like the fish with various varieties to chose from.

Service was good and quick, food just nothing special. I couldn't feel french taste unfortunately. Interior design like from the best french places, but it was just english food in french areola.

I was disappointed on this visit to Cote, previous visits have been fine, but there didn't seem to be enough staff on duty, the manager spent most of the evening chatting to some guests, I presume they were friends of his, and we could not attract anyones attention to order our desserts, service was terribly slow - we were the last guests left in the restaurant and it seemed as if the few staff that were on duty were more concerned about tidying up and going home.

The meal was very good but the restaurant was too busy. The service throughout was slow with a long wait even to order our first drinks on arrival. Having been to cote many times, it seems they are booking in more people they can comfortably cater for.

Mothering Sunday was a busy day and our late-minute, on-line booking was for 3pm. Staff had obviously had a busy time and people were queuing. Staff were still friendly and attentive. Meal was delicious. Would recommend.

Excellent, staff great and food spot on. Forgot one of the side dishes but the food and services more than made up for it. Happy.

great food! good staff but service a little slow…..when I ordered a second glass of wine the waitress brought a second beer for my husband that he didn't order and no wine for me. This was later rectified but not for about 10/15 mins. Having said this the restaurant was busy and overall we enjoyed ourselves.

Efficient staff - not too interfering, getting the balance right. Food is consistent irrespective of which Cote you use , and of a good quality.

The restaurant had a great atmosphere. The food was wonderful and served at a leisurely rate so that we didn't feel rushed. We will definitely be back.

Very friendly and attentive staff, despite our very late arrival on a Sunday. Good usual high standard and quality. We will definitely stop by again.

Excellent food, with friendly, efficient and unobtrusive service. Comfortable surroundings, busy with a nice buzz about the place but not cramped. We ate at 10pm and weren't made to feel hurried. We'll definitely be going back.

We had food food, we had good service and it was a very good experience visiting the restaurant on a lovely sunny day with my husband..

Very good food. Could not fault. Service - ok. Maybe with less clientele we could have a superb service. Still very much appreciated. Friends enjoyed the experience!

Excellent value for money and a better selection of dishes than other competetor Enjoyed the Roquefort salad and the Sea Bream. Chocolate pot always a good dessert with coffee

Lighting perfect - staff service so gentle - value for money - choice and food perfect. My husband who died Sunday 12 March loved the French onion soup! Fillet steak we loved coming to your restaurant.

First time visiting the Cheltenham Cote and love the building to start with. The restaurant was very busy but we didn't have to wait for our table. Menu choice always good and waiters very prompt with drinks and service throughout. A very enjoyable evening and will return again.

Good food and service even though it was busy. Nice place with a real french feel. We have eaten their a number of times and will return.

Staff very pleasant, choice of food and wine very good and overall a very pleasant dining experience, we were almost finished our meal when a large party arrived and they were rather noisy, but overall no complaints

It's a fun bustling environment with food and staff who do their best to make you feel good. The dishes are well thought out, tasty, cleverly presented and well portioned so the "offers" actually probably still carry a healthy margin. When busy, which it nearly always is because of its proposition, it's understaffed so be prepared to keep attracting the attention you need.

Excellent meal with good service at a very busy time. The staff were under great pressure throughout our meal, but were always cheerful and helpful.

Such nice staff. I go about once a week. Easy. About fifteen minutes walk from my house. Always choose a quiet table, favourite upstairs in the window.

as usual a good varied set lunchtime menu. always a great atmosphere, good service and high quality food ! highly recommended - i try to go every week !

Very nice food, although didn't like the fact that they automatically added a 12.5 percent service charge to our bill, only a table of four, although I guess that's the way they work - other than that all was very good.

Great food...excellent service.Early dinner before concert at Cheltenham Jazz Festival. Will certainly return to Cheltenham and more Cote restaurants. Looking forward to the new opening in Gloucester

Great food, great service. booked on impulse at last minute, and very pleased. The French onion soup and haddock were outstanding. Two Gluten free people well catered for. Excellent. Will go again.

Good atmosphere. Staff are very polite and helpful. The food ordered arrived in good time. The ribeye steak was cooked as ordered and a pleasure to eat. Previous dishes I have sampled have been equally good. I have visited twice now and I have no hesitation in going again.

super quality food and nicely presented, prices are very good. Excellent service, always an enjoyable place to go to have an evening out For two or with friends.

Great food and atmosphere. Very busy Sunday lunch, insufficient waiting staff. Highly recommend this establishment in a great location in Cheltenham. They also have tables outside.

Good experience with excellent food and atmosphere. The service was good. Would have liked them to have fruit teas on offer. Dealt with my lactose intolerance satisfactorily.

Enjoyable all round. Good Welcome and service and the food was excellent. The fillet steak was especially good - perfectly cooked - melt in the mouth.

Nice atmosphere and helpful staff. We had main meals off the a la carte...My fish stew was excellent, although a little salty, but my wife's duck was very dry. Ironically our previous experience with the 2/3 course set lunch was better...

good meal - quite busy and service was acknowledged as being slow - I really don't see why I have to write 25 words when 12 will do!
