Have been enjoying the salmon fishcakes from the main menu for weeks. Unfortunately the dish has changed and now contains pickled cucumber - yuk! Much preferred the spinach.

Quick and efficient service. A charcuterie starter was good and the pan fried fish delicious. The choice of desserts is limited and does not seem to vary. However, an enjoyable meal as always.

Great food and excellent service good view of the cathedral. Only negative was that the lack of any soft furnishings makes the environment quite noisy.

The staff are great at this restaurant. I conducted an interview with a client over lunch and they couldn't have been more helpful - they found me a good table, they didn't disturb us while taping was in progress and were extremely professional. The food is good too, made with care! And you get a great view of the Cathedral from the roomy first floor. One of the best value for money restaurants in Exeter. An excellent place for a business lunch.

The food and the location, as always, were great. Service was not up to standard tonight. Stupidly, I fell for the automatic service charge. Grrr.

Fantastic location overlooking Exeter Cathedral where you can dine al fresco and soak up the medieval atmosphere of the close in dappled sunshine. Food, as always, excellent as was the swift and personable service. A firm favourite of mine when visiting family in the city.

We had a three course meal from the lunch menu on our visit. The food was well prepared, mostly well presented and most importantly was very tasty. All the staff were polite and friendly. I dropped one points off the rating because the steak and chips was just that, and somehow I just assumed there would be some kind of vegetable or garnish with it. As it was, the plate looked very empty and not particularly inviting. The reason for the other point dropped was that our waiter disappeared at some point (maybe the end of her shift?) and no one seem to take over so we had to waylay another waiter for attention.

Excellent service and as always lovely food. One mark down as realised on the way home our dish was supposed to come with mushy mint peas, the meal was still lovely but we only mentioned it on the way home as felt like something was missing. It won't stop us from returning.

Usually cote brasserie is a very good restaurant so not a little disappointed to find the service was less attentive than I would normally expect and the main course of haddock wrapped in bacon was served with a sauce which was reduced so much that it tasted too salty and too much of vinegar. I think the quality control of dishes is usually better monitored than this and my experience is thankfully not typical of cote brasserie in other towns.

Cote Exeter is in a wonderful setting overlooking the Cathedral. The staff are friendly and efficient and the service well paced. I take visitors regularly and have never been disappointed.
