Côte Harpenden

The restaurant was smoothly run - it was a Saturday lunchtime. Our waiter was totally on the ball, and other staff were equally as welcoming, efficient and attentive. The food was great too.

Excellent service & a broad based menu for a fussey crew who all enjoyed the experience. Interesting wine option rather than Prosecco - soarkling Sav Blanc.

Overall, the food and service were really good. However, when I ask for the bill, it means I'm finished and want to pay and go. I don't appreciate being kept waiting for it and then having to wait again to pay.

Good service to start but forgot to produce side dishes st the same times as the main course and yet again service charges are automatically added @ 12 percent plus so no discretion

I took my grandson to Côte as he is coming up to his 21st birthday. We arrived at 7.30 and although very busy our table was ready and service was excellent. The main menu is superb and we both enjoyed the slow cooked pork belly. Great food and really good service.

Restaurant too noisy. Perhaps carpeting and curtains would reduce the noise"! The young lad who served us was very efficient, polite and knew how to relate to customers.

Atmosphere great, service great and the food was even better if that is possible. Our guests enjoyed the experience as much as we did: first class.

We have decided that this is now one if our favourite restaurants: the food is simply delicious, beautifully prepared and well served. The restaurant is always quite busy during our meals which makes for a wonderful atmosphere as well. We always have excellent service which makes the 12.5% service charge well worth it.

We didn’t like the first choice of wine, the waitress was happy for us to try some different wines before we settled on a bottle, lovely food and good service.

It wasn’t very busy as we went early which was good as you can’t normally get a table. Apart from the staff omitting a steak knife the food was great, staff fairly attentive and really friendly with good recommendations. We can’t wait to go again the other half said his steak was one of the best he’d had in a long time. I had the chicken which was delicious.

Meal was lovely. Service was a bit slow as only 3 staff on duty and it got busy later in the evening. No problems with attitude - just a long wait.

Great food great service as always, very quiet at the time which we arrived and had one of the best meals we had ever had there

The food was an excellent standard with a wide choice of menu options. The only thing which detracted from our experience was the appalling slow service. There were very few customers in the restaurant on a Friday lunch time and so it was hard to reconcile this with the poor service provided.

The Breton Soup was excellent 12% Service charge is added to the bill here! As with booking fees for concerts I don't agree with this!

Had one problem with my steak: ordered well done but got rare. My husband had to eat his food whilst I waited for mine to be recooked. Normally I would have made more of a fuss about this but we redeemed an offer of a free gin and tonic at this restaurant and got two free instead. Fabulous. The food was and is always wonderful here.

The service was very good. The food was average. We had a three course meal from menu plus a bottle of wine and 1 Gin and Tonic each, If the food had of been better I would not have minded paying £60 per head but I thought it was not good value for money.

Very good experience. Relaxed, good service and very tasty food and good choice. Fifth time I have been and it only seems to get better.

Enjoyed lunch today with friends,choosing from the special lunchtime menu. We ordered different things the food was excellent,staff attentive & pleasant. Everything excellent. Booking was easy. Good value 😊

Quick and easy reservation process - able to get time I wanted at short notice. Good food with plenty of choice and prompt and efficient service.

Excellent service food was very good big improvement putting acoustic tiles on ceiling to cut the noise down Nice restaurant to visit. Was wife's birthday and we had free drink and happy birthday written in chocolate on dessert plate. Nice touch

Food and staff were very good i had the rib eye steak and it was cooked as i requested we thought the restaurant was very cosy and will definitely come back

Lovely food and attentive staff, despite the restaurant being really busy. Great ambience, without being over noisy. Highly recommend for an above average eating out experience

We were quite late in the lunchtime service so the restaurant was reasonably empty. The service was fast and efficient. The only reason the score isn't a six is because the starters arrived before our wine, this is partly because food service was so quick but there was time to have brought the wine before food was served.

Lovely food and very good waiting staff was perfect contributions to our lunch. Restaurant was very clean - loos too! Never disappointed at any Cote Restaurant. Standards are very high!

Lovely restaurant and great food. Slight muddle over our order and our starters were slow to arrive but all was resolved quickly by a very helpful waiter. Highly recommend.

Nice setting, pleasant serving staff and good food at a reasonable price. The two/three course set meal available Mon - Thurs seems a pretty good deal.

Excellent quality food as always and friendly professional staff. There were 4 of us. So we had great company and were relaxed. Air conditioning very welcome.

Delicious meal at the Cote Brasserie in Harpenden and excellent service, as always. It was amazingly airy for such a hot evening. Literally a breath of fresh air. Looking forward to our next visit.

We enjoyed our evening and the food was very fresh and healthy. The service was efficient and we were very pleased to eat at Cote HarpendenOur.

The service was very good not over the top but attentive. The food was also very good with lots of taste and well presented. Let the restaurant know if your are celebrating they will make extra effort.

My second visit to Cote and I was just as pleased with my meal as I was the first time I was there. My daughter and I had a lovely relaxing time, with good food and very pleasant staff. The food was of excellent quality and well cooked. First class!

Lovely food. Very good service and friendly staff. We went Monday afternoon so not many people but still very enjoyable. We have been about 4 times now and have never been disappointed

Girls night out. Friendly staff and meals were excellent. Nice and relaxing.

Again, a very good evening. Food was excellent and great value. Can’t wait to book again.

Had mixed reviews from friends but I thought it was great. Not rushed. Happy staff. Lovely.

I’ve eaten here before. The staff are always very polite and helpful. Not rushed. Eaten dishes from all 3 menus and they’ve all been lovely.

Cote manages to meet consistent standards, no matter which location you go to. The fixed menu is very good value for money. Service was also excellent.

We enjoyed everthing. the ambience, not too crowded tables. the service was good and each course was cooked to perfection. We complemented the chef and the staff were delighted! Will be back again

Excellent food and service. Took 2 very elderly ladies. Staff very kind and considerate to them. And we all loved the free cocktails - on promo!

Lovely decor which provides a good atmosphere. cote have a team of very polite and helpful staff. An enjoyable meal with lovely food that was well presented and beautifully cooked. I will eat here again.

Lovely setting and decor within restaurant. Service was very attentive and they do a great value breakfast and early evening set menu with good options!

Food is good and service very pleasant. I have become a regular customer since moving to the area couple of months ago and enjoy it very much

The restaurant itself is a little cosy, with tables tightly packed into every available space. But food and service are excellent as per usual, so well worth a visit!

Great. Well prepared food, sensible and well priced wine list. Good service in a very pleasant surrounding. The set menu has decent options and is good value.

Another excellent meal! Despite being a busy Friday evening the quality of service, food and drink remained very high. I would recommend Cote anytime. Thanks!

Wonderful food and great service. Very conviennent location the restaurant has a lovely French vibe and ambiance. A taste of France in the heart of Harpenden.

It is always a pleasurable experience to dine at Cote Brasserie, Harpenden. We go there mainly for breakfast which is superb. Each time the staff are extremely efficient, accommodating and very friendly.

Polite, accommodating and fantastic with my 9 year old son. They did not rush us and no request was too much. My father said it was the best meal out he's had in a very long time. Thank you!

Good quality food and nice choice of dishers on the menu. Much appreciated a very professional and friendly service. Will definitely be back again soon

Great food and service for my son's 18th celebration. The fillet steak was perfect - we love Cote and will be coming back for sure.
