We enjoyed a very enjoyable quiet Monday lunchtime meal, with excellent Whitebait starter and perfectly cooked Steak Frites and Seafood dish and bottle of wine.

We had a good visit after work on a Friday evening. The restaurant's set menu is good value for money. Nice and bright restaurant with lovely view onto Guildford castle.

Excellent breakfast, very friendly staff, fast and attentive service. Only criticism is that the cappuccino could have been stronger, if they want to lure people away from the coffee shops their coffee must be good.

As it was Mother's Day I took my mum for a breakfast. I asked for earl grey tea and got a flat white coffee! I told the lady but by this time we had eaten our breakfast so felt I didn't want it now. Was not impressed with the service. It is unusual as cote are normally very good! Didn't even take the coffee off the bill.

Food good. Service good too. Busy, almost 100 per cent. A consistently successful restaurant. Menu choice offers some regular dishes, with monthly changes. Well worth a visit.

Enjoyed brunch. Good value formulae. Will definitely visit again. Only criticism is the cappuccino is tiny. Latte is reasonable size so don't understand why the cappuccino isn't. Anyway, will order the latte next time.

Lovely ambiance - good food and service was good too. Service charge was already added to the bill - which we were happy to pay but I always prefer deciding how much to give myself!

Usual good food and service. However, in the back restaurant there is a dresser for the staff to get serving items out off. It needs soft closing hinges put on as the staff were constantly opening the doors and bang the doors went as they closed, an irritating surplus noise that could have been avoided.

I am disabled. The entrance step is difficult to manage and would benefit from a handle to help both the disabled and the elderly. there were three items no longer on the menu, two which were on the "set menu". The meal and service were very good (as usual). I would particularly like to thank the member of staff who helped me to manage the step out of the restaurant.

Great restaurant, good food, good service. The lack of soft furnishings can make it a bit noisy. The back is lovely during the day as its flooded with natural light. The menu suits all tastes.

The three of us have been going to Cote for their 'Early Bird' meal for the past 12 years and in all of that time, the restaurant has never disappointed except when it hadn't Crème Caramel on the menu on one occasion and our usual bottle of Treviac had all been drunk on another!! Great quality food, super service, excellent and helpful staff, what more could you ask for?

I had the platter for first course. The bread seemed not to have been freshly toasted. It was rubbery rather than crisp. The main was boring.

Good service, good food, nice atmosphere. The waiter was very friendly and helpful. We were asked 3 times by different people whether everything was ok, too much in my opinion- your waiter should ask once. Maybe the manager a second time but even that's not necessary. 3 times was a little intrusive on our conversation. Otherwise great.

Another pleasant meal here. Food was fresh and of good quality, as always, and the service was very friendly and sensibly efficient (i.e. you were never rushed). We booked in advance as we know the restaurant gets very busy at lunchtimes and we were glad we did. We had a nice table by the window, which was very welcome, but I would not have wanted to be seated at the two-person right in front of the door - I believe this is only used when the restaurant is full but I wonder whether it would be possible to reserve tables for those who have booked in advance, to avoid any problems.

I always go to Cote Guildford for a celebration or on a regular basis for brunch on a Saturday because having been in the restaurant business I know when I am being given excellent service, the food is consistent,doesn't try to be clever and I have never had cause to complain and I feel that the menu is not overpriced. Went today for Mother's Day breakfast and had a lovely morning.

Great restaurant could do with updating the menu and making the salad a little more inviting. It's all leaves in a bowl with a little bit of chicken and not much more. Great service

My lady and I have been using Cote for some years now and you will find my reviews for Cote on Tripadvisor a few times. We enjoy Cote immensely and go as often as we can. The food and services are second to none and I always advise family and friends if they want a good tasty meal to go Cote
