Ambiance and environment lovely and service very good. I had a goats cheese salad, one of my favourite dishes from many years living in Belgium. It was not as good as I had expected. Served in a steep bowl it was actually quite hard to cut up and eat, the cheese was relatively hard for a hot goats cheese, and it was missing a good dressing - usually a creamy honey dressing works well with the strong goats cheese. But, I will definitely visit again, but perhaps choose a different dish!

Service well-meaning but chaotic. Food not up to usual Cote standards; chicken salad arrived without the chicken and the risotto was stodgy and the Parmesan cheese took so long to arrive it must've been delivered direct from Italy . Filet steak was fine as was the desert.

We had the special summer menu - there was a good choice in all three courses, and all of our party of four were very pleased with our choices. Excellent food and great value for money. The service was efficient and friendly and we did not feel rushed at any time. I would thoroughly recommend!

Touch expensive, and there was roadworks outside, and the fumes from the machinery were blowing in. Spoilt the atmosphere, and made it difficult to have a conversation.

The waiter, whose name I did not get, was extremely attentive and made us all feel special. He was tall, slim with light coloured hair. He even came over to us to say goodbye before he went on his break.

Nice atmosphere. Warm welcome but general service was a little under par, e.g. Wine bucket wasn't filled with cold enough water and/or ice, prosecco was served warm... Rectified when asked. Food fine.

Had a very good meal. Three of us had a three course lunch with coffee. Only downside was the service which, for some reason, was slow. We waited 30 minutes for our starters. We did not complain but the manageress was aware of our wait and displayed good management by offering each of us a complimentary glass of wine.

Unfortunately, service was slow and my omelette ordered from the vegetarian menu was flat, unseasoned, bland and missing any cheese or tomatoes (as per menu) and had a few raw spinach leaves in the middle. There were no creme caramels left but the alternative took too long to arrive. We needed to leave for the theatre. The manager took the price of the omelette off the bill. Poorest Cote meal we have had.

If our waitress had repeated our order back to us when she took it we would not have ended up with an incorrect main course. We ordered olives and bread to have with drinks when we arrived . The olives looked rather old and didn't taste good and the bread didn't arrive until or starters arrived when we then got 2 lots of bread. The manager tried to make up for things by offering a free glass of champagne. The food was actually good but I have not yet been to a Cote when something didn't go wrong.

Although we were served, ate and finished within one hour the reason for the 5 instead of 6 rating is because it took another 15 minutes to pay the bill. Lunchtime patrons are a mixture of office workers and tourists. Office workers need to eat and leave within one hour at lunchtime, perhaps identifying who needs to be turned around quickly at lunchtime would be an amazing achievement for the lovely waitress who did an amazing job.

Went for a meal at 4pm on a Monday - service very slow. Food had potential to be very good but my dessert was still slightly frozen and my chicken was a little on the pink side. Staff were helpful and friendly in regards to helping my accessibility needs. It's inexpensive but could have been a lot better!

We waited at least 45 minutes for our main, some of the vegetables were very undercooked. The chicken liver pate was runny like liquid, we couldn't eat it, and they were so busy everything took ages and we only had mains. The peppercorn sauce was not very peppery and very bland. We would have had desserts but couldn't risk being there for another 45 minutes waiting.

Welcoming and good menu and wine selection. Staff efficient and friendly. Unusual criticism but my poussan ? was too large! That and my son's steak were very rare (bloody) in the French manner.
