Côte Restaurant Exeter

We had the Salmon Hollandaise and the Haddock with Lentils. The Salmon piece was very small and the seasoning for the Haddock was not balanced. It was over seasoned with Cider Vinegar (?). Otherwise all was fine. The beer selection was so disappointing that I chose water instead

Service was excellent, every member of staff were welcoming and extrememly friendly. The food was fantastic and the wait time for the food was also very good. Definitely visit again and recommend!

Service a little slow owing to restaurant being very busy and one large party, but good food and buzzy atmosphere. All in all a very pleasant evening.

Ate here tonight as a couple. Very high quality food and superb service - attentive without being over-attentive. Cannot recommend Cote Brasserie highly enough. Thanks.

Good atmosphere and excellent service. Great choice of veggie food and wines. One of the best chains to go to in Exeter for dinner for well cooked and presented food.

In a gorgeous location overlooking Cathedral Green this lovely old building is full of charm and character. The menus are varied with dishes to suit all tastes and the Early Bird special menu is excellent value. Staff are efficient and friendly and the whole evening was delightful

We had a delicious dinner and a mots helpful girl to serve us. I had requested a table upstairs by the window (as we had an American visitor, although I hadn't mentioned this in my request) and we were very pleased to have a wonderful view of the cathedral green.

Excellent value for money. Consistently good service and good quality. Would recommend. We go there often as it's such a reasonable deal in pleasant surroundings

As always we were welcomed like dear friends. We have probably eaten there at least 75 times in the last three years. The service is impeccable and the food as ever, excellent. The chocolate mousse is the best, as is the fillet steak which we have every time!

Really enjoyable. Food well cooked, with quality ingredients. Attentive service but very busy, so food rather slow to appear. Mildly resent the 12.5% "optional" service charge automatically added to bill. Would certainly go back.

As always at Cote Exeter, last night was brilliant. The service was excellent and the food was great. Thank you Cote for making my Birthday evening a great one, Monty.

A very friendly,efficient service,consistently high quality for the set lunch. Tables were busy,but we were very well looked after,new menu cycle proved tasty,varied and balanced

Excellent staff service and friendliness good food with a great view busy and buzzing upstairs and have read reviews that it's too noisey but it was great and downstairs available for a quieter meal if needed will visit again when next in Exeter that's for sure cote is consistently good wherever you visit one and the staff in Exeter made it extra special.

We had a lovely time. We were given a table upstairs with perfect views of the cathedral. We opted for the set menu. Soup / Couscous/ Creme brûlée. All courses were delicious and the waiter Gerard was very attentive. We were looked after while we enjoyed our food. Merci

Pre-booked table was not ready on arrival resulting in a wait at the entrance, restaurant was uncomfortably warm. Service was good and food was excellent though.

Visiting Cote in Exeter was an excellent finish to a morning in the city. Had two starters and mains from the lunch time menu and, as always, the meals were top notch.

Really lovely evening. Great service, fabulous food, wonderful view. Came here to celebrate our wedding anniversary and we had a lovely, romantic evening. Highly recommended.

Excellent food, wine and service - as usual. The staff were helpful and cheerful, despite our having to speed up the dessert course in order to meet a theatre date.

Fantastic food with a lovely atmosphere. Great service also with every need attended to. The recommended wine was also absolutely lovely! Would recommend to anyone in the area!

Table ready, good service and excellent food. Really, what more could you want? We have visited this restaurant several times and it is consistently very good!

Booked table successfully online, and despite arriving early we were able to sit down immediately in the usual convivial atmosphere. Service and food were good as expected and we enjoyed a relaxing evening out.

Went for breakfast which was delicious hot and nicely served went for the full works including jam juice and coffee. Really very good value as always.

Very pleasant staff. The service was prompt and attentive without being intrusive and the meal was superb value for money. It was a lovely all round experience.

Very pleased , good food and service , only booked this am and had great table even though restaurant was very full Will definitely be going again

One of the classier joints in Exeter, imho. Reception could have been better. None of the staff on duty seemed interested in us for a few minutes, and it was difficult to see whose attention we should attract. Soon enough one of them affixed the welcoming smile and we were well looked after thereafter. The food was excellent. Our Hungarian waiter was friendly and engaging and even managed to give the impression that we were his most important table. The toilets are unfortunately three flights below the 1st floor dining room, but the latter offers lovely views across Cathedral Square, and the art deco feel of the place is pretty cool. It was nice to see a range of diners - young and old, enjoying themselves. Definitely going again and again.

I love this restaurant. The food is always excellent and the staff are friendly and helpful. I'm one of those annoying customers who arrives and announces they're in their lunch break and need to get in and out in an hour and they always do their best to help recommend quick dishes and ensure our order is taken swiftly, drinks are offered and the food arrives quickly. This really helps take the stress out of things which helps me focus on enjoying my lunch rather than having to watch the clock. Likewise I've been in the evening and enjoyed a relaxed romantic meal with no rush or pressure to move on. Great service. Highly recommended. The view across Cathedral Green from upstairs isn't bad either ;-)

Lovely food as always, beautiful view and friendly, welcoming staff. However appeared short staffed on this occasion so service was slower. The staff working, worked very hard and maintained their friendly calm approach, they looked very busy and there appeared to be less staff than usual.

Very helpful and efficient staff. Excellent menu and very good value. Will go again as soon as possible...! Thanks to all at Cote Brasserie, Exeter.

Lovely restaurant with very friendly staff. Great food as always. Can thorough recommend Cote in Exeter. Top quality in every way. Looking forward to going back already.

The Online booking was extremely easy. The food and the Service was lovely and a great view of the cathedral from the prime window table.

Food excellent and service very good. Sat upstairs - found it a little cramped and chairs not all that comfortable. Would def go again though

Lovely food lovely wine lovely food and wine. Lovely wine lovely food. Lovely wine and food. Lovely lovely food and wine and wine and food.

Great food and good customer service as usual. Starter of pear and endive salad, main sea bream and ratatouille, followed by chocolate pot. All yummy and excellent value under the early evening menu.

We had a wonderful evening with a table in the window as requested. Good food and wine including complimentary kir royales. Staff very attentive but too many staff asking us the same questions: order? drinks? etc. However, overall a lovely evening! Thanks.

Food was average, my chicken was tough. Got a bit fed up with the Waiters constantly hitting my chair as they passed even though there was plenty of room. It's a chain restaurant without any soul or atmosphere.

Food always cooked to a high standard and served with no long waiting time. Staff are very welcoming. Convinient for town. Good atmosphere. Great value for lunch & early dinner menu.

Excellent food, great staff and fabulous location overlooking cathedral. Also really good value. What else could you want? Highly recommended by a frequent diner. Enjoy.

Great lunch, excellent food and service as usual, we're never disappointed which is why we chose the Cote to celebrate my birthday, staff are attentive but not overly so which is good

Great food, buzzing atmosphere and efficient service throughout. Just made our stay in Eceter a little more special. Thank you to all the staff. We will be back..😊😊

Excellent and quick service, fine food with a nice view to the Cathedral. We enjoyed our brunch and loved the coffee, would definitely visit again.

Lovely restaurant. Nice atmosphere, attentive and friendly staff. Prompt service, good selection of food and drink on the menu...delicious food. Great location overlooking the cathedral.

As always, there was very friendly service with a buzz of efficiency. Consideration given to where we sat (as I am slightly disabled) and the food came through as delicious as always - hot and freshly cooked. No complaints at all.

Wonderful restaurant, very professional and efficient staff and the food is wonderful, real flavour and presentation. We took 2 American friends of our's to Cote's last Sunday as they had not been to Devon before and it was a perfect setting and meal and added to their really positive experiences of their time in the County. Thank you again and we will definitely be re booking ourselves in to come again very soon. We would recommend without reservation. Would love to see the restaurant offer local craft beers too as an option.

Another enjoyable meal at Cote this evening. Great service, nice atmosphere and lovely food as always. We enjoyed the 2 courses for £10.95 before 7pm - a nice treat for mid week.

The restaurant is in a lovely location overlooking the cathedral. The food and service was very good. Upstairs can get a bit noisy when busy. Would go back again

Food and service was excellent. A busy restaurant with a good choice and great views over the Cathedral. Staff were polite and attentive. Well worth a visit.

Service and high quality of food remain the same. Exeter is a particularly attractive and memorable site overlooking the cathedral green. Was not displeased in any way.

lovely seat by the window as requested. first time visit for a friends birthday! great service, very quick despite the restaurant being busy. great food possibly could've offered some condiments with the meal but very nice all in all.

A superb English Breakfast and French Breakfast with Fresh Orange Juice and Tea. All professionally served in the Exeter Sunshine overlooking the Cathedral. What a wonderful way to spend a Saturday morning .

Very nice set 3 course meal with good choice but wish the desserts would change from time to time. Beautiful setting upstairs over looking the Cathedral
