Côte - St Martin's Lane

Tasty food with a good wine Happy atmosphere without being noisy. Nicely attentive staff. Reasonable prices. Convenient location I look forward to the next time I meet up with friends there

Friendly and efficient service. Good food and great location. Advise you to book in advance as lots of people were turned away. Would go again.

Great food and great service. We both had something from the Specials menu: my hubby had the Lamb with roasted fennel and I the Duck Confit. He asked for the lamb to be rare and it was beautifully tender. My confit was up to French standards...although the salardaise potatoes could have done with a bit more garlic, but that might just be my preference. Will definitely try other branches around the country now.

Pre-theatre menu was excellent. Good selection from which to choose, well prepared and presented. Waitress was brilliant. Despite the fact that the restaurant was packed, we felt really comfortable and in safe hands.

Diverse pre-theatre menu, though, for a pre-theatre meal the service is sometimes slow. Need to ensure you time manage your meal so you're not late. Would go again.

Simple no fuss post Theatre dinner. Great service. Only drawback was no disabled toilet upstairs! The toilets were down a set of steep stairs so not ideal for elderly or anyone with difficulty walking.

Good deal for pre-theatre menu. We were sitting downstairs in a corner but very prompt service and attention from waiting staff. For 3 people including service and soft drink each £56 - very enjoyable for central london location

Cheap and cheerful post theatre menu. Always reliable and never disappoints. Friendly attentive staff and speedy service make for the perfect post theatre dining experience in the west end.

Lovely food and nice relaxed service. Staff were very helpful and friendly. In addition there was no pressure to finish quickly so we could enjoyed a leisurely meal. Thanks Cote!

Helpful, professsional and friendly service. Fresh food and a good range at reasonably price. Excellent location for theatre. Clean and nicely furnished surrounding. Try to sit on ground floor and near the front.

Excellent. Good service Good cooking Good choice of menu for a pre theatre meal Thank you very much. i would recommend it to my friends

Restaurant was very busy but the welcome we received was excellent and our server could not be faulted. The food was somewhat average and my chicken, although beaten out, was tougher than it should have been. Whilst there was nothing to complain about per se, neither was there anything to shout about. It was okay.

Great service and food. Staff were friendly and efficient. Food from the a la carte menu was excellent and from the lunch set menu was good value.

Always a pleasure to visit Cote. They always serve good food at incredible prices and the service is first class. Will certainly continue using Cote

The restaurant is good but the risoto was soft. The rice was much softer than It should be. They also closed the account before we asked for desert. And they bring two bills And asked us to add them.

Always enjoy Cote St Martin's Lane. Great service by a cheerful, attentive and very friendly team. A must for our regular theatre visits. We'll be back

Delicious set menu lunch with a friend. Good atmosphere. Cheerful friendly and attentive staff. Thank you! Highly recommend to friends. Will be back again soon.

Great food and service in a lovely atmosphere. We were well looked after and the service staff were very attentive and quick to bring additional things such as sauces, bread....

Other cotes are more spacious even in London. This one felt cramped and six adults in a booth was cosy . Main server was fine but let down by his colleagues who attending us at different times and mixed up meals and failed to bring a new order of drinks despite being asked a number of times . They did hold our reservation when we phoned prior after problems on the Piccadilly line so credit to the place and would have been nice if the one waiter remained with us rather than a mixture that may have led to confusion at times

Arrived in time for breakfast menu. Lovely waitress advised us to do the breakfast package & quickly before the 12 noon cut off. Great service & decent food at a rwasonable price.

Even though very busy pre show, the service was both friendly and efficient, most enjoyable experience​, 2nd visit, really good for early evening meal pre theatre

We arrived early to a warm welcome and were seated straight away. The service throughout was friendly and efficient. The quality of the food was very good and good value for money. Overall, a very enjoyable experience.

The Cote in St Martins lane was an ideal spot for a pre theatre meal Good service and food although my fish could have been a bit hotter

Quite slow service, warm white wine. Sweary staff. Food was brought and then taken away again with no explanation. Half am hour wait between starter and main. Food was nice though

The experience was awful the waiter took no interest in out table and was extremely rude until his family/friends arrived whereby he smiled and was all over them! Really disappointed with service and the food was average

A friendly welcome. Good service - attentive but not too attentive! Lunch time menu deal had by me and my friends! Great choice and very tasty! good value for the money!

Highly recommend, good menu, staff helpfu, pleasant, efficient and friendly, just as we would expect from this chain of restaurants. Food delicious and always varied but with some retained favourites.

The restaurant was busy however the food, wine and service were all excellent. Will certainly return to this restaurant again sometime in the near future.

I cannot fault the experience my friend and I had. Staff were efficient, polite and appropriately attentive. The set meal was extremely good value and the restaurant understand the need for efficiency when theatre tickets have been booked. This is the second time I have used the restaurant for this purpose and I will do so again.

Great location, superb food, attentive staff, would recommend this restaurant to family and friends if visiting the area, only negative was bathroom downstairs and one of our party had difficulty in getting to them, apart from that a great pre - theatre meal was enjoted by all.

As always our dining experience at Cotes Brasserie st Martins Lane was excellent. We go there every time we are in London. . I am registered with Cotes on line but never seem to get any rewards!!

Wonderful food, very good service, as usual the Picpoul wine was chilled to perfection. Mackerel rillettes were very tasty. Followed by cod goujons. Then chocolate melt in the middle pudding. Delicious and excellent value for money.

There is a great value set menu. Good, friendly service and good location for any pre/post theatre trip. We were served by a variety of waiting staff who were all chatty and friendly.

Quick, efficient, tasty and very good option if you're attending the theatre in the evening. The fact that it gets so booked up is testament to it's excellent value.

Good service, food came promptly, the steak was a bit dry (consider giving us more sauce?), but the pre-theatre dinner was good value. Would come back!

Cote can be relied on to produce good quality food quickly when necessary, with friendly prompt service. Cote St. Martin's Lane is noisy but convivial and enjoyed by pre-theatre and post-theatre goers. I recommend it for convenience and reliability.

Went for pre theatre dinner so promptness of service important. All fine on this front and food and drink more than adequate. Cote in St Martin's Lane is top of our list for pre theatre dining in that part of London. The manager is excellent

Having booked tickets to see Carousel at the Coliseum, your restaurant was the ideal place to enjoy a pre theatre luncheon. Having visited you previously we were not disappointed. Excellent service, good food at a reasonable price

Always love Cotes de Brasserie. They never let you down. Food is always reliable and very good and the atmospher is always vibrant and jolly. Pre theatre meals are good value. Only downside is vegetarian food is very limited.

Food was excellent. Although it was busy we didn't feel rushed at all. Staff were very friendly and I would definitely go again. So pleased we booked it.

Pleasant staff, good service and delicious food. What more can I say to fill 25 words. It's content not quantity that matters as they say less is more!

A very tasty pre-theatre lunch, which was served promptly. The only drawback was the ambient noise as it was very busy and the tables are quite close. However that was inevitable given the number of people having lunch.

Service was friendly, efficient and prompt. The food tasted good and was well presented. The restaurant was very popular so you need to book at busy times.

Excellent service and food, a great find in central London especially with all the theatres and galleries around this area, handy for the tube too!

Sadly, what started as a very pleasant late lunch turned into a fairly unpleasant experience. We asked for a different table to that which was offered and our request was amiably accommodated, thereafter our waitress was inattentive and rude. When asked for a glass of house white wine it was delivered warm and slammed on the table. Ice was requested and again it was obvious our request was of annoyance, the ice was delivered slammed on the table, the waitress leaning over one of our party's food to provide the ice. The food was of a good quality however the service was appalling. At one stage we asked for a few more minutes to decide on our desserts, after which the waitress rolled her eyes and walked off.

Busy as always, but staff really polite and efficient. Food as good as usual, with pre theatre menu excelling. Very good value whichever menu chosen.

As always the Cote experience was enjoyable. Good food, service and a friendly welcome. As the restaurant was very busy, we were seated downstairs where the ambience is rather lacking. So when booking I would suggest requesting an upstairs table.

Food was good. Service was good and staff were very professional. We were made to feel welcome and had a good evening will definitely go back

We had a wonderful pre theatre lunch celebration for my mums 88th Birthday. We notified the restaurant ahead that it was Mums birthday and the staff immediately mentioned this on our arrival to make mum feel special. To our surprise 3 glasses of Kir Royal were brought out as a complimentary gift. How wonderful to come to London to our very familiar Cote (we go to Bath and Bristol) to find the same great menu and lovely service. It really does feel special at Cote. Thank you 😄

Excellent table by the window and friendly attentive service by staff. The lunch time menu is fabulous and my party of four all enjoyed themselves!
