Excellent, as always. Never disappointed with the food and service. We had a choice of tables and sat by the window with a view over the castle grounds. We were not rushed to leave after our coffee, which was a bonus.

Lovely bustling atmosphere, food excellent and hot, service good. prices ok. Always a good choice. Wine by the glass was too chilled for a Bordeaux and needed opening up would be only criticism.

Always enjoyed C Brasserie, but last night the tables were packed together, it was very noisy and generally uncomfortable. It was a gymnastic exercise to leave the table !!!! Other Brasseries are not like this......

It is always a pleasure to come to Cote. Staff were lovely, food is always great and service was amazing. 100% 5 stars! It can sometimes be a bit noisy, but today it wasn't full, and it was perfect. Staff went above and beyond to please us. My friend is expecting a baby and wanted non alcoholic wine, which Cote does not serve. Our server suggested he can make a non alcoholic cocktail for her, which wasn't on the menu. She was so pleased she ordered a second one! Thumbs up!

My daughter and I had a lovely lunch in the Guildford Cote after a shopping trip. The waiting staff were attentive and friendly. We chose from the set lunch time menu. I gad the warm smoked mackerel and beetroot salad to start and my daughter had the ratatouille. Both excellent. We both chose the chicken and bacon parmentier. Again, really nicely presented. I had not been to Cote for some time, but I will certainly be going back.

Always have the most amazing service and food at Cote Guildford. After visiting for years with my dad (a frequent visitor!) I decided to visit for my birthday meal with friends. Thoroughly enjoyed our rhubarb martinis as part of the May specials promotion and also the Creme Brulee as the May special dessert. Thank you for the personal touch of singing happy birthday and bringing me a candle with my dessert! My main course was delicious: Pork belly and potato gratin. The waiters are always so kind, welcoming and friendly. In particular Dimi who served me tonight. Thank you.

My dining experience yesterday was not good. The calamari was greasy, the steak was far too peppery and the waiter dropped my fries and had to get another portion from the kitchen.

Friendly helpful staff. We had a slight problem with one of the desserts , however the staff dealt with it efficiently and satisfactorily. The food was declicious and the offer of free cocktails was a nice touch. The noise level rose to a rather high level though, meaning we had to shout to each other in order to hold a conversation. Lovely location in the town.

Yet another fantastic meal at Cote in Guildford. Three of us ate from their Prestige and Set menus and not only was the food fabulous but for 3 courses, what great value for money. A lot of people moan about the 12 1/2 % service charge automatically added to the bill but trust me, you always get exceptional service to justify this charge. The staff are always very courteous and friendly and the service is prompt even when they are fully booked.

Most enjoyable experience all round. We were made very welcome on our arrival and offered a choice of the table available. Our waiter was excellent just the right level of friendliness and attentiveness. The food was very good being attractively presented and cooked perfectly. The wine we chose was recommended by our waiter and was good and value for money. We are irregular visitors and have always found this restaurant to be good however after our last visit we will not leave it very long before we return.

Staff great. Food salty and produced without care. Chef is a cook who clearly follows a poorly produced mass recipe. I am in the f&b industry. This is clear. A cook who calls himself an accomplished chef and a brigade of assistants. The front of house saved the day.

Not one of our best experiences at our favourite local Cote. Food and wine very good, which is what we have come to expect from this restaurant; it has always been one of the best places to eat in Guildford. Let down this time by excessive noise (surely something can be done about this) and very poor service. Normally there are staff all around the restaurant, doing what they do best, looking after the diners. This time we had to wait a long time for our order for food and drink to be taken. There may have been shortages of staff, but this is not acceptable with a restaurant chain the size of Cote. We will be back, but hope that our next experience is what we have always been used to.

Delicious French and English breakfasts today. Excellent service as usual, accommodating changes to the menu and fabulous breakfast team in the kitchen cooking quickly and accurately.Beautifully cooked eggs in particular all served piping hot. The front of house team were very jolly for a Sunday morning and worked well together. Great start to the day!

Myself and a friend enjoyed our meal (2 courses £11.95) at Guildford Cote today and feel it was excellent value for money. The service was also good. Cote must be doing something right as the restaurants are always busy at lunchtime.

Brilliant group dinner - everyone was exceptionally helpful and the food was amazing, especially as our group was around 35. The only reason I have not given 100% is that the tables were a bit too close together, which meant waiting staff could not get to the end of the tables easily. We needed a bit more room but other than that it was faultless. Thank you very much.
