Côte Reading

Great service from the team and we look forward to going back in the near future

Food was very good and tasty. Only criticism would be the service was too fast. Sounds strange, I know, but we like to take our time for dinner and don’t like to rush. Perhaps have your team ask if we are in a rush or not?

Great welcome back! Hi with a smile🙂. Quick service, not waiting long before order was taken. When entering we were asked if we had any dietary needs & sanitizer was available to use. Drinks, I.e. 2 coffees were quickly made & served & our brunch didn't take long to serve. Servers were very happy to be back working & very chatty. One server even remembered that we prefer sweetener in our coffee before we requested it. Brunch was delicious. I had the vegetarian cooked breakfast & husband had the cooked breakfast. Will make this trip a regular event.

Food is nice, customer service is good as usual. Will return.

Great service, with attentive staff. The food was delicious and worth going back for although I would've liked a slightly bigger portion. Menu is well constructed with plenty of options no matter your dietary requirements.

Great to be back and see the friendly team. Brunch was lovely.

Lovely food as always. Service team felt a bit inexperienced or perhaps over-stretched. And the restaurant felt maybe a bit too full to be COVID-safe?

As always the ambience was lovely, the staff very helpful and polite The food is just absolutely perfectly cooked, always fresh and of a top quality. The measures put in place to deal with covid 19 are excellent and the staff were constantly cleaning which was also very reassuring Overall as always a wonderful evening was had Thank you

We had a lovely evening, the staff were all absolutely delightful

Lovely meal/service. Will recommend to my friends n And family. One thing though, get rid of you included gratuity of 12.5 %.... let your customers/client decide what they want to tip you. Xx

The food was lovely as always and the procedures in place regarding Covid were excellent.

Good food. Not much atmosphere but that’s due to pandemic situation

Lovely to be back after such a long period of closure. The staff were friendly and efficient as always.

It’s been such a long time since we enjoyed eating out but today’s wonderful lunch was therefore all the better. The food was outstanding as ever, and the the service and the atmosphere were delightful. Lovely to be back. I can thoroughly recommend.

Service fantastic as always and food perfect. Delighted to be back!

Welcome back and thank you. Food was as amazing as ever and the service of course excellent. Made to feel very welcome. Can’t wait to come back.

Delightful, experienced staff. Always going the extra mile. Superb Management. Excellent hygiene measures and an absolutely delicious meal. I’m missed you Côte! Welcome back!

Great to be back, to see the usual faces after so long. Great food as usual, in a very safe environment

Lovely food and staff always very polite. Happy to be going for lunch again.

It was a real pleasure to have lunch today at Cote Brasserie and taste again the wonderful cuisine in a safe environment without the need for signs, stickers, arrows, 2m spacing everywhere. Your well trained staff carefully ushered us to our table and all were wearing visors.

Great to see Côte up and running again. It’s my family’s favourite restaurant in Reading. Really delicious meal this Tuesday evening and thank you for the complimentary Rhubarb Martini ... 🍸 I’m a huge fan of fries (or potatoes in any form) and although I didn’t have any fries tonight that’s the only thing I would criticise and say that the portion is very small.

Excellent customer service, super friendly staff. Good to see you back again!

Amazing to have Cote Reading back! It has been our favourite haunt for years. We've missed it terribly during the lockdown and now it's open again; Just as reliable, just as pleasant an experience, and wonderful to see so many familiar faces on staff. Thank you!

As always, high quality, not-complicated, very tasty food for a surprisingly good price.

Great restaurant and fantastic staff. Food is always good and never have to wait long. This is my favourite chain restaurant, breakfast is really good here too.

We had a lovely lunch today,the staff were friendly and attentive and the atmosphere pleasant.My daughter and I really enjoyed. I think it's excellent value for money and eat at Cotes often.

Having lived 35 years in France and Belgium, we appreciate the high standards of food and service set by Cote. Another enjoyable meal yesterday evening in Cote Reading.

We enjoyed a lovely evening at the Cote Reading. We indulged in three courses all of which were very enjoyable.The duck confit was the star although the dessert, the tarte fine aux pommes, was not far behind. The service was excellent.

Great food, great atmosphere as usual, service superb. I do think you need to be careful when booking on line if you're angling for the complementary wine or cocktail as we found the Rhubarb Martinis on our bill as I'd apparently not clicked the right buttons - really? They were taken off but it tainted the effect of the evening - shame.

The Reading restaurant is always a great place to meet people for a business lunch. The staff there are courteous, professional and friendly. Thank you again.

As good as usual! Our birthday Kir Royales arrived without having to ask for them and the rest of the meal was as expected of Cote.

Really pleasant experience, lovely food and lovely service. Couldn’t fault the experience. Even added a little touch by giving a complimentary drink for a birthday. Would return.

Always a delight to visit Cote. Lovely food and always great service.

Once again another excellent time had by me and my daughter at Cote celebrating her birthday. Food, staff and atmosphere were brilliant. The whole restaurant was bubbling with happy customers.

Food was very good value, staff pleasant, but service a bit slow as not so many staff as usual. Restaurant was a bit cold and drafty.

Good service and pleasant manners. Food wad also good and atmosphere was great for a lunch for two.

We are regulars in several branches, originally because of the excellent range of choice of gluten free food for my wife who is coeliac, but also now because of the choice and excellence of the food and service.

We had a lovely pre Mother's Day evening meal here on Saturday. We were very happy with the customer service and table service received and look forward to coming here again as this is a yearly tradition. Lovely waiter waited our table most of the evening and had a great sense of humour. The food was exceptional too.

We were able to sit in a booth which was perfect, choice, value for money is excellent on the set menu. Service first class, staff very friendly, welcoming and efficient.

Very nice meal out with my best friends. Food & service was excellent, well done. Good value for money too. Highly recommended and we will return!

very good service, good food .It was a monday evening so quiet anyway but enjoyed it .Only issue was that we were near the door end of the restaurant and the lighting was poor we really struggled to read the menu between all 6 of us !

Convenient in Reading, food good, April offer drink fine. Background music a bit loud. If you must have i8jt, have a French theme. Nice taste of France in UK.

Really nice experience. Food was good and varied menu choice. Staff very friendly and helpful. There was a blip as one of the March specials is iamb rump and there is also a lamb rump dish on the standard a la carte menu. The order was taken down and input correctly however the kitchen mistakenly served up the wrong dish. It 'twas handled very professionally by the front of house team. Meal,replaced quickly and deducted from our bill.

Great Mother's day brunch, despite being very busy the food and service was to Cote's usual high standards. Thanks for a lovely start to Mothering Sunday.

Lovely Ambience, delicious food and brilliant service! What more could you ask for!

Cote Reading is, in my experience, consistently good and today was no exception. Food is good value, staff very good and overall it's a great place to go. But I have to say not all Cotes are as good as the Reading restaurant.

Always a great meal at Cote, it’s my fourth different place and they’re always great thank you! I’d prefer to do my own tip and not automatically be charged 12.5%. I know it’s ‘optional’ but when you’re in company who wants to make a scene!

Myself and two friends came here for lunch today. We always meet up at cote because we live the quality of the food and the atmosphere, both of which were great today. However, today the service was extremely slow, after waiting for 35 mins for our food order to be taken, my friend finally went up to the bar to ask if someone could take our order. This was only after we had observed other customers who had arrived after us having their orders taken. When ordering the puddings, the menus were brought promptly but again we had to ask a member of staff to take order. This is not the level of service we have come to expect over the years we have been coming, so we were a little disappointed today, however we will return and give cote another chance to prove themselves.

Staff are always pleasant friendly and efficient. Service and food excellent and great value for money.

A lovely meal as always. Our restaurant of choice never fails to impress. We enjoyed the complimentary cocktails and both the lamb and the belly pork main meals were cooked perfectly.
