Staff were absolutely brilliant and very kind to our two children. Food was as expected a few things that could have been a bit better but overall a good meal. Staff were exceptional.

There was some confusion over our complimentary drinks and it too three people to sort this out. The restaurant was over full. Table next to us had a wine bucket which meant there was barely enough room to pull your seat out. It was very noisy so hard to hear conversations. We were 4 on a round table but you could hear to talk to person next to you. Food was the same good standard but at 7.30 there were items on special menu not available. I usually rate my Cote visits highly but this was a disappointing experience. Need to raise their game as a new Ivy has opened up the road.

Restaurant was busy, service very slow and the people seated after us served first!! The breakfast was very nice when it finally arrived. I think they need more staff, normally service is 1st class.

Excellent as usual. very consistent quality of food, service and atmosphere. one only has to look in the restaurant early in the evening to see what a popular venue this is. We usually use this Cote when going to a theatre nearby. It's worth the climb of a steep flight of stairs to get to.

The place was incredibly busy when we went which made it very noisy and hectic. Our server was focusing in too many things and we felt a bit forgotten about.

great atmosphere, good food and value, very attentive service. We will be back. The early starter menu is great idea pre- theatre and the two course price is value for money. No complaints - so far.

Very swift service, which is great if you are going on to a theatre, but may not be so good if you want to linger longer. The usual excellent menu choices (on the early evening menu) and good wine.

Lovely as always. Bit hard to hear each other as it was incredibly busy but thats not the restaurant's fault. Loved the main courses but often find it difficult to choose a starter as they are less inspiring than the mains. I had French Onion soup - it was nice but not fab, slightly lacking in flavour, but the crouton was excellent. Always glad of the free water served beautifully in the carafes. Our waitress was charming - good at her job and warm and friendly. Cote staff are always well trained.

The food was as good as ever and the staff were very pleasant but were rushing around as it was a very busy lunchtime. It was very nice but not very relaxing. The tables are also very close together which meant people and staff were always brushing past. Other Cote restaurants we have been to have been nicer

We regularly go here for breakfast and it never disappoints. We were a table of 6 this time and seated right next to the coffee machine which wasn’t ideal as it was so loud!

As usual, the choice was excellent and service was very good. One of the downsides of such a successful formula, is that it gets very busy and therefore quite noisy.

Food was nice, promptly delivered and hot. Waitress was impatient and more than a little grumpy when we asked for a slight change to the dish as listed on the menu, and even more so when she got the drinks order wrong. This was very unusual as normally the staff are excellent.

Cote Guildford is a great restaurant, good for breakfast, lunch and dinner! The food is delicious and the service is good. The staff is friendly and welcoming. The only drawback for me is that it can get rather loud when the restaurant is busy, but that's the sign of a successful place!

Lovely evening with friends; great waiter (Romeo!) and super food. Managed to rack up a rather big bill with 2 bottles of very quaffable red. Good value and buzzy atmosphere. Not 'fine dining', but a fine evening with plenty of ambient atmosphere.
