Nice welcome from front of house staff member. I had haddock main which was lovely but my partner's steak frites just ok! Main issue was it wasn't very hot! Dessert of pancakes tasty but overpriced.
Cheerful waiter and waitress, nice menu choices (lunch), good food, served promptly. Nice bright decor. I'll be happy to return and to recommend to others.
Enjoyed a very good and tasty meal at a reasonable price. Welcomed nicely on arrival but actual server could have been a bit more friendly. Would definitely return.
Delish food (crab to start, chicken grille main and the most gorgeous crème brulee for dessert!), great venue and lovely friendly staff. Will be back!
Already visited twice. Nice decor, friendly and attentive staff. Food interesting, well presented and tasty. Overall a positive experience. We intend to be regular visitors.
Great service, excellent food and very pleasant environment. Highly recommended - especially the deserts! I have a slight issue with having the tip included (suggested) in the base bill and would prefer to decide that for myself and give cash. I realise i can juggle it around but why should i have to be told to tip?! Would have been top score without that minor annoyance, and will definitely not stop us from going again.
Welcoming restaurant, food delicious. French onion soup and warm beetroot starters. Steak frites and half Breton chicken and frites. Delicious. Deserts all sound delicious. A perfect evening. Good service.
Excellent service, great food, hot plates! Made to feel very special and thoroughly enjoyed our birthday celebration. It is a long time since I received such great front of house service.
Good food, polite friendly staff. Had a good catch up with friends in a pleasant environment. The price was very reasonable too. Would recommend cote
Excellent service. Great atmosphere and the food was exceptional as usual. Would highly recommend the french onion soup followed by Breton Chicken and of course you can't go home without sampling their delicious tarte tatin.
Great vibe, fantastic service and unbelievable food. Cote gives some of the Manchester restaurants a run for their money! We will definitely be going back again!
Overcooked muscles overcooked fish stew hard overcooked goujonsand they were tasteless! Only so so service.Unfortunately it was a really bad experience and we don't really think that we will visit again
We had a lovely evening, food was lovely and reasonably priced and staff were attentive, just the right amount. Would go back again soon without hesitation
Great atmosphere, lovely food and a lot of choice for everyone's taste. The background music was very discreet, staff efficient and helpful - highly recommended! I would definitely go back there.
Great friendly service. Starters were enjoyed and a very acceptable interval left before mains arrived. My reason for not giving maximum rating is because my grilled chicken was lukewarm, the jus was hotter but not really hot enough. The 3 others seemed to be happy so I did not want to complain and spoil the occasion. Puds were also enjoyed. The frozen berries and chocolate sauce always go down well. We enjoyed a very acceptable bottle of house red. We have been to Manchester several times but now you have opened we will be back.
Staff were great but unfortunately the food was pretty average Queue at the door when we arrived and a few annoyed customers due to "computer problems" which overbooked the restaurant Doubt I will be returning
Quick service and pleasant staff at the restaurant. I would return for dinner again. The vibe was not particularly young but it suited the group I was with.
food was good and staff were helpful as they could be but there was a great deal of confusion over the booking and the link to the rewards system when we arrived which meant the start of the evening was not totally relaxing
Great atmosphere, had a choice of which table we wanted. Very attentive service, taking our coats etc. Amazing food, good selection on the menu for different tastes and cooked to perfection.
Enjoyed a lovely lunch. The staff were very courteous and efficient. We enjoyed our lunch. A great buzzy atmosphere. We will definitely return. Will look forward to it.
We visited with friends and all ordered different main courses and desserts, all dishes were well presented and delicious. There is a superb choice of desserts. The service was excellent. We will be returning on a regular basis.
Friendly buzzing atmosphere with good food. Service was good and prices reasonable. Good place for a night out with friends. The fish and chips were delicious.
not welcome at the door , waitress poor English food to table incorrect needed to chase staff for missing items steak poor quality full of water , poor dressing , French restaurants always serve snails and you don't ? bread to the table an after thought , [2] the chips were warm !!!
Rather disappointed as had been recommended to try you .No bread with soup was offered and then had fillet steak from Valentines Day menu with no vegetables at all . Had mussels but the sauce was rather tasteless.
A perfect dining experience. The staff were superb - nothing seems to be too much trouble. A really first class restaurant and a welcome addition to Hale.
Great food, the mussels especially were amazing. however check your bill as they didn't give us the lunch price automatically so I had to get them to change it.
Great choice of food and really delicious! Excellent, friendly service too. The whole party enjoyed the meal, would thoroughly recommend it, especially the lunch set menu.
Welcome v good; wine choice average to poor; food choice good; quality acceptable but not brilliant; service pleasant although finished dishes not always cleared quite quick enough. Suggest to change the bread to regular quality baggetts, sour dough is, we feel, an acquired taste. Bill for four was just over £160, which included 3 starters, 4 mains, 4 puds 4 coffees and 6 glasses of wine, which we felt, was only just OK. It is quite noisy. On balance we will be happy to 'go' again.
Their steak frites is a joke unfortunately! People in Hale deserve something better...not grizzley rump steak. The staff are fine ..very courteous and obliging and I would hope their a la carte will be perfectly acceptable and will try that next time. Thank you.
A total surprise, i anticipated the usual chain restaurant offering and service, how wrong I was. I had to change our on line booking by phone it was dealt with courteously and efficiently. This carried through to our welcome and the service from our waiter Elliot. On querying two of the dishes on the menu he sought and advice from the kitchen and returned promptly with confident answers. The food was served in a timely fashion, hot and well presented, none of the side dishes nor drinks were forgotten or delayed. All in all an exemplary result compared with the myriad of chain restaurants that have opened in and around Manchester of late. Well done!
The customer service is fantastic, friendly, attentive and fun. We were looked after very well. The food was delicious, I couldn't fault it at all.
loved the food, good service. lovely place. Would definitely recommend this place. The decor is nice it's also not too noisy. We will be paying an other visit in the near future.
We visited at linchtime last week. Lovely food and excellent service from the staff.. My husband had a super birthday lunch. Would recommend for a good experience.
Great food, excellent service, complimentary drinks for our table delay. The menu offers a good choice for all yet is easy to read. Well worth a visit !!
Great food and good value. Children loved the mussels and adults enjoyed the burger... shared a chocolate fondant... delicious. Not bad value for money too.
Food service excellent on a busy Sat evg Choices to suit all tastes and friendly attentive staff Only criticism was the seating was uncomfortable over the evening
Excellent food, great service, nice atmosphere - French onion soup and calimari are very tasty starters, duck rillette and beef bourgignon were also excellent. Wine list is very French but long.
The food was lovely the restaurant and the surrounding was too,the service was outstanding I will definitely have no hesitation in going again and recommending the restaurant
Friendly staff, nice atmosphere and good food. Cannot fault the staff although slight critique would be them not putting fresh cutlery out for main. Would highly rate the food
Lovely ambiance, friendly and helpful service, very tasty traditional and rustic French cuisine without fuss. Felt quite at home taking family with 2 young boys early evening. Good luck Côte, Hale...we'll be going again.
Average food with poor service. Our initial waiter was awful. He had absolutely no interest in what we were asking. Poured my wine into my water glass. Won't be returning any time soon.
fab food nice settibg great service well done special valentines menu good value our waiter was from roumania and he knew vlad the implarer get there and enjoy
Poor quality food. The food specification cannot be varied - I ordered a green salad with the express requirement that it would not include onion and yet I found it in the salad. The staff seem very inexperienced.
So far the best food in Hale, if you want real food that is the place. Amazing, really good service and the steak was perfect and good quality.
The Breton Fish Stew was excellent and great value for money. At last a decent sized and very good Creme Brûlée Service was also quick and extremely friendly.
Good tasty food, better than neighbouring restaurant. The service is a bit rushed, but plenty of staff around so overall very good service. Enjoyed my evening, will definitely go there again.
We went with our new born daughter for my 35th birthday, the food was excellent as were the staff and they helped make it a really special lunch out so thank you all at Cote Hale
Fabulous interior, good menu and attentive staff , we enjoyed our meal here one evening and will certainly return. The 2/3 course menu is very good vale.
A vast improvement on the indifferent service offered by Hale grill towards the end, good food, friendly staff and more ambient surroundings, well done Cote Brasserie, keep it up.
Great atmosphere and lovely food. Went for a meal with friends on a Friday night. Enjoyed the ambience. Only disappointment was that the restaurant does not have a bar area as this would have been a nice place to meet up.
