The food is consistently high quality, service fast and efficient and ambience great. But what makes the Guildford Cote stand out for me is the staff - such a lovely bunch of people who are always fun, very helpful and all work so well together. Many thanks.

As always the food is excellent. 3 of us had the French onion soup which is so delicious. The Breton chicken is so succulent and tasty and I had the wild mushroom sauce. The service is always excellent whichever branch we go to. I always recommend Cote.

Our group of six was seated in the conservatory area and it was very noisy. food was good but not wow. When it came to paying the bill the lady collecting payment did not seem to understand that the service charge was optional (this came about because we did not have enough cash to pay the amount including service charge on the bill). We should have asked to produce a bill without service charge and then left our cash towards service. We also did not receive a dessert we had ordered and had to have it removed from the bill!

What made this evening special was the helpful and friendly service we received from the staff. The food was standard Cote Brasserie fare, which was what we were expecting. You get music while you eat these days and some of the tracks were a bit heavy, hence the 5 not 6 rating.

We always get excellent service, very good food from a good menu, and it is always very good value for money. We have a meal at Cote before going to the nearby theatre, so time is always of the essence - we are never let down.

As a very regular diner at Cote's in many of the UK's restaurants, I was highly impressed with the quality of the friendly, warm and professional service, ambient atmosphere and value for money. The food is always very consistently good at Cote's and this Guildford branch was no exception. Thank you.

Quick lunch with my son and my husband. The beauty of Cotes is that it is a lovely atmosphere and it is lovely food but really not extortionately expensive if you use the lunchtime menu. In fact I had an email voucher which even took money off the price of that menu. Loyalty pays here!

If you go at 12 noon on a Saturday or a Sunday, you can decide if you want brunch or lunch, as brunch is served until 12 and lunch starts at 12. Perfect if you feel like brunch and your companion wants lunch!

The food at Cote is always good but the service today was incredibly slow. We waited 15 minutes at our table before anyone even came to take our drinks order and then I had to ask someone if we could order. It seemed we were all rather tightly packed in as the tables we very close making it difficult to move, take off your coat etc. The tables were cleared very slowly and dirty tables were left long after the diners had gone. We did ask if they were short staffed but were told they weren’t! They did say that a lot of people had arrived at the same time which is just bad planning in that case. After one hour we had only had our starter. I appreciate it is not a fast food restaurant but you expect to be able to be out after and hour and a half quite comfortably. They did acknowledge our lack of service by making a deduction on our bill but it was a disappointing visit nonetheless.

The waiters were all friendly and efficient. Unfortunately the fish pie was very salty. The calamari was tasty although a lot of it and the chocolate mouse was delicious.
