Steak frites on menu served pink came to table over cooked and very chewy for both of us , however they were replaced
We were not happy with our experience today at Cote. My friend and I came for a Xmas celebration and we were quite disappointed with the service. The service was slow and when we came to order our deserts I ordered the chocolate torte. I asked if it came with icecream and they said it did. My friend ordered the creme brûlée after asking if it came hot which the waiter said it did. Our deserts arrived but no icecream for me and a cold creme brûlée for my friend. My friend kindly asked if it could be warmed up which it couldn’t be so she was happy to continue eating her pudding however the manager was called over even though we never asked or complained and greeted us with quite an abrupt and defensive attitude saying ‘what’s the problem?’ We said that there was no problem and we didn’t ask to speak to a manger but we just explained that we wanted a hot creme brûlée which the young guy had said it was. The manager proceeded to say... ‘he would not have said it was warm as he has worked here for a year and a half’ To us we felt that was very rude and accusing of us of lieing which was not the case. We are very understanding nice people who were not complaining yet we were approached by a managed and greeted with an unpleasant attitude which actually ruined our experience.
Fairly good but not as good as usual. We had to wait a very long time for our main course today and had to ask how much longer we would need to wait as there was a 35 minute delay after finishing our starter to receiving our main course.
Lovely meal, not rushed and a lovely waitress, will definately be back.
Unfortunately poached eggs served with the breakfast were stone cold as were the replacements. Finally a fried egg was served correctly but not before the whole breakfast experience was disjointed. The situation was resolved amicably.
Excellent food, excellent service, excellent wine, what more could you want?!
It was a lovely evening. Good service and great food.
Very nice evening. Good food and good service. Family meal in a relaxed atmosphere
Excellent service, delicious food. Thank you for a lovely evening!
Excellent breakfast! Service was good and the coffee was HOT! Lovely place to eat
Excellent as usual, the staff are always happy and helpful
Very busy but staff managed to bring the food fairly efficiently
The food was lovely, the service attentive without being intrusive, the waitress very friendly.
Food was lovely - service was unfortunately slow. The toilets were horrendously cold and very uncomfortable to use 😢
Really enjoy cote brasserie I would recommend it to friends.
Excellent food, comfy surroundings, good service and a complimentary drink to boot. What's not to like!
Good service, attentive staff, good food and atmosphere, with a nice vibe.
Excellent service and meal. Very well organised restaurant and very friendly staff.
Wonderful meal, menu and prices excellent and the food was divine! Well done Cote, you are our favourite restaurant in Farnham!
The food is always fabulous, the staff really friendly, especially as I go regularly with my elderly parents and they often recognise us, and are so caring towards my parents.. Never had a bad meal at Côte! (Oh, and the noise level is better these days too!)
Great food and service - thanks A very enjoyable evening out
Always good food and atmosphere come back again and again
Had a very enjoyable dinner with a friend who was over in the UK visiting from America. He was very impressed too - its always consistently good and staff are delightful. Will definitely be going back! 😊
Very good experience, particularly as my son paid for it with your gift vouchers!
Great food in a good atmosphere. Good service but a bit slow at times.
Lovely staff, amazing food. Will hope to be returning here
Lovely place to go for lunch or dinner in central Farnham. Staff are very friendly, worth a visit.
We are regular eaters at Cote restaurants because a) the French connection is accurate and genuine, b) the food is good quality, c) the food is good value for money and finally d) the staff are efficient, friendly and polite. However sometimes things are not quite as they should be. We have the following criticisms from our recent experience. 1. Our seats were not ideal as we were close by the bar and opposite the entrance and hence exposed to the cold outside temperature with the comings and goings of guests. A few suggestions a) a closure mechanism on the door? b) a polite notice to encourage people to close the door after using it? c) narrow or change the entrance, where the curtains are, for a more efficient but safe draught excluder? 2. We were given this table as the restaurant was busy, which is great for everyone, because we prefer chairs to benches or banquets and we had reserved several days in advance with this stipulation. Clearly we were given a table which was available rather than specifically reserved. 3. On this occasion we only required a quick Sunday lunch after shopping. We booked for 14.30 and didn’t leave until nearly 16.30, hardly quick. We were waiting for someone to take our order before, eventually, one of the managers spotted our dilemma and came to take our order. The food was slow to arrive, particularly our mains, which were from the plait rapides, and my wife’s poulet grillee was burnt and the dish was dry. The sauce had a skin on it. Clearly it was left waiting at the pass somewhere. We put this down to a bad day at the office and hope it is the exception rather than the rule going forward!!
Awesome as always! Friendly attentive staff and hot, tasty food. Consistent. Lovely atmosphere.
Staff were friendly. I mentioned in my booking that it was an anniversary meal for my fiancée and I and I asked what could be done. I expected a phone call or email to see what can be done. But as we got to the table, they offered us two free glasses of complimentary bubbly which was very generous of them. Thank you!!!
Service was courteous and efficient, always with a smile.The waiting staff are so well trained. Great value for money.We had the lamb rump and it was amazing!The creme caramel is to die for. Another great meal at The Cote.Thank you.
Great birthday breakfast for my daughter. Lovely food and great service. Excellent all round.
Great food and staff even though some of our party were 30 mins late. Quiet enough given the date. Parking a pain on a Friday but not their fault.
Excellent food. Good atmosphere and polite service. What else does one want?
Great service & I loved my meal. Husband enjoyed his starter but thought his main was mediocre. A little crowded and noisy (which I suppose is the mark of a successful, popular place) but we were allowed to move to a slightly quieter spot once another table became available :-)
Excellent experience. Highly recommend this venue for a relaxed atmosphere with excellent food.
Nice evening with friends, nice food, good service, nice ambiance.
Enjoyed a very pleasant meal after our matinee visit to the theatre. The theatre menu is wonderful value with excellent choice even for those of us who do not eat meat
Tables very close together, where we sat, with very noisy American egotist at next table. Whitebait a little under-cooked. Chicken main very good. Choc pot not up to usual standard (grainier, sweeter)
delicious food, great value, excellent service not too noisy although very busy
Arrived at 6.00pm and told two members of staff that we had tickets for a show starting at 7.30pm and was told no problem. Ordered food promptly but meals were very slow in arriving so could only have a main course and therefore not able to benefit for the two course prices. Not able to order desserts or coffees. A disappointing start to our special evening out!
Wine was really good Food was cold and average - camberet wasn’t as thought but calamari was delicious.
Fabulously friendly and efficient waitress, Poulet grille was outstanding and a great value set meal. A favourite in Farnham
Slow service, inattentive, cold food, hair in food. Normally very good here, tonight was a disaster.
Great as usual. Cote always delivers, staff brilliant and the food, whether it’s a snack at lunch or a full blown dinner in the evening superb.
Lovely lunch - as usual with a delicious courtesy Sidecar cocktail.
Great Restaurant with nice ambience service was friendly and fast and the menu and food very good. Would highly recommend.
Excellent service and greeting from Russell. He’s a perfect representative of Côte and is kind, generous and fun every time I’ve visited the Farnham restaurant. Love it when he’s there!
