The staff and service here have improved a lot. The food was always good and the menu varied but we had many problems with arrogant waiters in the past, pedalling their corporate babble.

The waiting staff are always very attentive, and friendly. And the only restaurant in Chichester that the staff will replenish your wine glass when eating. Something my husband, and I always notice. Also the food is always delicious - have never had a bad meal. I always recommend you to my bed & breakfast guests (and friends too)!

Excellent food with friendly service in a lively and vibrant atmosphere at a reasonable price. What more could you want? Ok it can get a bit noisy when full or when a large party has booked but has never spoilt an evening.

Excellent hospitality thank you 😊 fish cooked and presented just right Good ambience but accoustics need sorting please. View of Cooper Lane needs obscuring with window film on North side it detracts from the experience. Thank you 😊 for a lovely birthday lunch your Manager and staff are a credit to your business.

The booking was as planned, through Quandoo, service excellent, only complaint is that the sauce on the sea bass was very garlicky, which wasn't mentioned on the menu as being in the sauce.

Very good food and service. Iould certainly come again. I thought the wine by the glass was quite expensive, as one glass was 50% of the price of the meal

A pre-theatre meal, so thought we'd try Cote after a disastrous meal at Brasserie Blanc last time. What a difference! Staff were very friendly and helpful. Ambience was just right, and the food was very good. They even managed to do a dairy free desert for me, which is always a bonus (and very rare). Highly recommend and we will return.

Sunday brunch and service in restaurant excellent. The only reason this did not get top marks was the time we had to wait for our meal because a large party was in.

Great value and choice as usual from Cote. Staff very friendly and helpful and a nice buzz around the place without being too loud. Our particular table for 2 was a little close to our fellow diners, but not intrusively so. Had a lovely fillet steak cooked absolutely right.

Service good. Food a little variable but overall reasonable to good. The restaurant was not busy but still my steak was not hot and cooked too well done for me. Just a little more attention to details like that would make it very good.

We make a point of eating here whenever we have a Chichester Festival Theatre visit planned provided that it is during the week. The reason for this is that their pre-theatre special meal, which offers superb value for money, is only available during the week. For weekend visits we go to Raymond Blanc so there's a lesson to be learned there. Food and service are both good and they are not "pushy". If you want just tap water to drink then that's fine. There is just one downside, which fortunately did not occur yesterday. Halfway through your meal they normally turn down the lights to the point that you can barely see your meal. If you complain they might turn them up fractionally but never enough. Perhaps I should take my brilliantly bright LED headlamp with me to stress the point. Get this right and I would give them a 100% recommendation. As it is, I can't.
