Côte Chichester

Always lovely - good food, good service, good atmosphere and always made welcome

Had a wonderful lunch today with a group of friends to celebrate my birthday. The staff are exceptional. Friendly, attentive and happy in service. Fantastic food and ambiance. Thank you.

Brilliant “Full English” breakfast; excellent service from very pleasant staff, all serving with a smile 😊. This is the type of service that makes you happy to come back time and time again.

Excellent meal and atmosphere as usual. Food and service upto the normal standard.

Great location in Chichester.Excellent food and service from well trained and friendly staff. Nothing is to much trouble. My wife and I have found over the years that the standard never drops.

Very pleasant lunch the service was perfect, lovely place to meet friends and relatives. thank you Jill

A really lovely restaurant. I had lunch there on Friday 3rd May. The food was lovely, the waitress was brilliant, nothing was too much trouble. Can't remember her name but a pretty girl with long dark hair, possibly glasses. The food was excellent, I had the chicken breast and the chocolate mousse for dessert. My friends said their meals were also very good. I arrived at midday and by the time we left a couple of hours later the restaurant was packed. Would absolutely recommend to others.

Always great- service and great food as usual! Consistently good keep it up ! Staff at Chichester excellent - always smiling and able to cater for most requests which may divert from the menu - Enjoyed a complimentary g and t today which was really refreshing ! Thanks for a lovely lunch

Once again a very pleasurable experience not least because of the helpful attentive staff and the excellent food cooked to perfection - and very good value for money.

We thoroughly enjoyed our lunch at Cotes Chichester. The food was of a very high standard, & the service excellent as always. We shall definitely be returning.

Food always of a consistently good standard in Cote, value for money and excellent service.

Once again the food was delicious, our steaks were cooked perfectly. As always the staff were excellent, always friendly and attentive. Love coming to this restaurant

It was ‘ok’ - have had better. Both chicken dishes we felt the chicken was dry had been cooked earlier & kept warm or - warmed up. Service was prompt but felt a bit ‘hurry up and place your order’ (decided they must want the table back after xx hour(s)?) when we needed a bit more time due to chatting with relatives we hadn’t seen for a while. Once ordered the food arrived spot on - not too quick not too long wait When we got to desert the menus werent placed on the table nicely more rushed service. Had to grab mine to stop it flying off the table. Overall I guess not the best as the final conclusion was the accoustics poor. Could barely hear what was being said - acoustics when dining for myself are an important part of restaurant design/build. Being able to talk without shouting. We will use another place to catch-up next time in chichester sadly.

We often dine here and always recommend to our friends etc. The food is always to our expectation and the staff are always very helpful and pleasant. They always ask if you have any food tolerances and will accommodate to your requirements. We have never had a problem.

Fast and attentive service and delicious food. Always a lovely atmosphere. Love it!

We thought that Cote Chichester would be fairly quiet on a Sunday evening but we were wrong. In any event I had booked My wife had the Special Chicken which she said was absolutely delicious. I had the Pork Belly which was also fabulous. We are great fans of the Cote Creme Caramel so finished with that - with a third one to share A great evening and great value

Friendly staff and warm welcome. Good quick service and great tasting food. Maybe a little over priced if any negative feedback at all to be given.

Wednesday evening and the restaurant was bustling as usual. Staff as always friendly and attentive. Starters Calamari and Steak Tartare. Both lovely. Mains Monk Fish very nicely cooked. We’ll be back again soon

Great meal and service as always. Waitress was helpful and a good atmosphere.

Very good staff. Friendly and good at their jobs. Good food. Lovely table in the window. Great value too. Lots of variety on the menu.

We really enjoyed our visit to Cote. Great food with a good varied menu choice including specials and we enjoyed the complimentary gin cocktail for our party.

I lovely place to eat, great food and friendly staff. Located in the best shopping area in Chichester and with attactive decor and good views.

Nice warm welcome, friendly staff and the food is nice but please please remove the service charge from the bill and let us choose the tip to give as opposed to us having to ask for its removal ...….

Had a great evening. Well worth 20 minute walk from where we are staying. Paige was an excellent server - very friendly and helpful. An asset to the restaurant. We also enjoyed thoroughly the food.

Only comment I would like to voice is that the Pre Theatre Menu has not changed for a few months. It would be nice to try some different choices.

The Côte restaurant in Chichester never fails to impress. The most difficult thing about eating here is trying to decide what to choose on the menu. The wines are excellent. The service is always first class and the atmosphere buzzing and fun.

It was a lovely Mother’s Day as usual. The staff were friendly despite being busy and the food was great. It was a very nice relaxing atmosphere.

Overall enjoyed it waited service excellent- infortunely my swordfish was undercooked and there was no attempt to re solve issue despite indicating it was cold and v v pink/raw inside. Others found meals rather limited in meat and bones (chicken).

The swordfish was very bland. The prawn gratinee was gorgeous as usual. Two lovely rhubarb cocktails and chocolate puds. Great service from attentive, friendly staff. Bit expensive but a nice evening bar the swordfish.

Although the service and ambience were good the food was uninspired and, at best, mediocre If the chicken parmentier had been this recipe we may have been happier https://www.bbc.com/food/recipes/chicken_parmentier_25434

Excellent meal. Staff were extremely attentive. A special mention for a gentleman named wael. He is an asset to your company. Food was excellent especially the veal t-bone steak.

Very friendly welcome, lovely atmosphere, no pressure to hurry when having your meal, great choice from vegetarian menu and the normal menu.

All 3 courses were wonderful, with attentive and friendly staff always glancing to see if you need anything. Staff really on the ball with minimal waiting time for each course. Would recommend.

Really great food and staff excellent, the service charge was a little over the top though would prefer to be left to my own accord on how much i would like to tip.

We had a very enjoyable meal prior to going to the theatre. The waitress was very attentive and friendly. The food was delicious and not over priced. We will definitely recommend friends and will come back ourselves.

Love your restaurant. Eat here a lot. Today maybe under staffed? A long wait between starters and main. Had to wait too long for someone to take our sweet order. We both went passed it unfortunately. The food was lovely. Service was not the norm.

Food arrived cold returned and replacement offered unfortunately orginal choice now not available ! Unfortunately this spoiled an otherwise pleaseant evening. Staff were very apologetic however not sure we would return.

Great staff relaxed and friendly always welcomed backed by very good food and generous portions. My guests had not visited you before and were very impressed.

Great place! It’s clean and tidy as you walk in. All staff greet you as you walk in. That gives it a real personal touch

We received excellent service and food very good value for money

As always Chichester Cotes excellent service food delicious and great atmosphere. Well done we will be back Enjoyed the Prestige menu today And of course the g&t

Good location, friendly welcome by charming Staff. Excellent choice of inclusive menus. Food arrived promptly and just as ordered

Great food at great prices with great service. Never get let down at Cote. Breakfast and dinner are both equally good. We will certainly keep going back.

Lovely treat for my 90 year old dad. Great food. Lovely staff.

Cote is always so reliable for a great night out - good variety and quality of food and excellent service.

Good quality food and excellent service. It was an early evening meal before a theatre visit so we just had appetisers and a tuna nicoise salad. The tuna was perfectly cooked and the whole salad extremely tasty and fresh. Even at 6pm the restaurant was busy and lively.

Always good. Booked online and some confusion about the offer for free rhubarb cocktails...but apart from that it was great !!! Some mixed comments from our table about the scallops starter.

Fantastic food and very attentive service. Kir Royal for our birthdays was a lovely touch. Will definitely be coming back and recommending to our friends and family.

As ever, the food was good and the service very professional. However we did not feel welcomed by the manager who considered our online request for a table ‘ at the side’ as odd and said he did not understand. We are a bit deaf and did not want to sit in the middle of the restaurant surrounded by table chatter. No need to make us feel a bit stupid.

Service efficient and friendly, very well staffed. Noisy group party badly positioned. Food was good but let down with fast food style fries. Would return but certainly not choose that meal!
