Cote is always predictably good; food and service. Tonight I dined with two friends with serious food allergies (combined was eggs, nuts, fish/seafood and gluten), the team at Cote went out of their way to make sure our meals were allergen free. Big thumbs up from us all !

An excellent luncheon with some unusual vegetable accompaniments - Jerusalem artichokes grantine. A very pleasant change from the usual chain restaurants. Real French classics in pleasant surroundings.

We were a big group at a super busy time and we arrived an hour before the reserve time, and they made it work, not only that the service was incredible. All my friends LOVED it, they all are super impressed and so am I, the food is delicious. I will be going again!

Good service and atmosphere. Food was delicious. Only minor negative if your menu says a dish includes avocado then it needs to either have it in or you explain you have run out. When queried about it I was brought a tiny dish of avocado perhaps they just forgot to put it in! Otherwise another good meal at Cote

The staff was nice, but waiting times between ordering and courses were way too long. One of the waiters spilled some food on my dad's jacket. He apologized, but normally restaurants give you something in return, free dessert or similar to apologise, nothing. I booked our table beforehand on the website and mentioned, that it will be my mums birthday. I am used that restaurants treat you a little bit special on these days, but again nothing like that happened. These points are what makes the difference to choose the restaurant over another one. As the food for us was nice, but nothing special, I'd rather not recommend this restaurant when someone was asking . We had a nice evening at the Cote Brasserie, but mainly because we were on holidays and therefore relaxed. There is still some room for improvement especially regarding customer service.

Another Cotes ticked off. All have been consistent. Good food and good service at an affordable price. Service here was possibly faster here. Very attentitive staff. Really popular if numbers were to go on. Fully booked on a Friday night and a party of at least 14 to deal with. Exceptionally good service.

Food was as usual amazing quality. It was very busy and we felt, among the large groups eating - a bit neglected at times. Drinks were late - carrots almost forgotten and so arrived half way through the meal. Nothing majorly wrong but not a fabulous experience.

Excellent complimentary cocktail. The Veal escalope was very good, but needs to be served with more than just water cress. Fries are cheap to produce and the profit margin is also good .

Good food, good ambience, easy to book a table and enjoyed yet another evening at Cote. There was a significant delay between starter and main course servive ~ probably because the restaurant was busy at the time.

I always like eating at Cote - all over the country - but I know Oxford (where I go most regularly) is the best! Why? because of the quality of the service! You can work out our server, because I was at table 17 set for two at 1.00 today Monday 6th May. He was superb: helpful, efficient, humorous. The food was good, of course, and exceptionally good value. And the Saumur is terrific. Please pass this on, Richard Smail

Lovely free gin with cucumber - great mood and occasion enhancer - thanks so much Cote for this treat. Lamb and steak great - all presented beautifully and tasted great. House red always a joy. Crepes with grand marnier looked great and a flaming spectacle - but cold!!! Despite the flames! Who wants cold pancakes? Only jarring note in otherwise fab meal...

Lovely restaurant and great staff. Unfortunately this is the second time I have eaten here and had gristle through my steak. Staff bent over backwards to help so customer service superb however I did not wish to have a replacement as I would not have eaten it all. Disappointedas was there to celebrate a birthday

Dealt with our group of 16 very well. My steak wasn't very hot but due to the size of the group I didn't say anything. We bought drinks separately and 1 of my group didn't like the fact 12 1/2% (optional)was added onto her drinks payment. It was removed though.
