Excellent service and good ambience as always, but seasonal set menu disappointing. Langoustine a bit soggy and chicken salad lacked flavour. Too much creme fraiche in relation to chocolate, which was grainy, in the Chocolate Pot.

We always love Cote - wonderful staff and delicious food. Today my food was slightly below par - I had the haddock with bacon and it was rather overcooked and dry. My friends' food was perfect, staff attention great and still a good experience!

A consistently excellent restaurant with fantastic staff, wonderful food and a newly appointed Manager, Sam who continues to do a first class job. Great value for money and each customer greeted as a 'regular' with the same level of attentive service.

I had been to cote several times but it was the first time I had been with my husband. They made the evening really special, the staff were very friendly and helpful and the food was delicious. The desserts were to die for even though we were full we just had to have one. We thoroughly enjoyed our evening and are looking forward to going again. Thanks to the restaurant manager and her team.

Food was good but service poor. Had to chase waiter to order dessert, then chase twice more before it came. whilst they deducted things from the bill we didnt have time to eat it as going to the theatre. after I left and checked the bill they added back on discretionery service charge! Will be finding somewhere else to eat in Tunbridge Wells.

Lovely restaurant and food. It was the first time we have been to this branch and we were a group of seven. It was very busy for a Monday evening, so it was quite loud to begin with. The staff did not rush us at all, even though we were slow to order as we were chatting so much! We had to wait a while for our main courses but it didn't particularly bother us as we were not in a hurry. Would definitely return.

Felt very rushed! Not a relaxing experience! Very busy. Good food. Pleasant staff but whipped plates away without asking if we had finished,,, Would definitely not return as plenty of other restaurants with a more relaxing dining experience on offer in Tunbridge Wells. A shame as other Cote restaurants in other towns are really good,

Service was good although our waitress did not seem to initially understand about a nut allergy m, but fetched the duty manager who was excellent and explained. Standard chain menu with a good and varied gluten free menu. Only had a main course this time which was very nice. The only downside is that it is very noisy, this is presumably down to design as it was not that busy a week night. When we have visited before it has been a weekend and full.

Service excellent and food delicious. Unfortunately there was a very noisy birthday party with several very young children and lots of crying! Nobody's fault but it made conversation tricky at times and felt a little intrusive!

Food was fine but we did ask for the childrens meals to be served at the same time as the starters but unfortunately this only happened with one meal meaning one child had a long wait for his food.

Good food, service and environment. Management let themselves down by adding a fixed service charge - let the customer decide on the tip. Better still, they should pay their staff properly so they don't need tips!

We all had the minute steak and frites - cooked to perfection and arrived really quickly. Puddings were also delicious. Staff were friendly and we had a great table by the window. This was a post-exam celebration for my daughter and it did the trick! Will be back soon.

Nice ambience and usual high quality food, well cooked & at reasonable prices. Always reliable with friendly helpful staff. Great central location. Usual menu favourites with seasonal specials makes it hard to choose what to have. It has become our favourite meeting up place after work - so much so we have already booked our next night out there next month!

Unfortunately, the service was terrible. I ordered a sirloin steak with béarnaise sauce and received a ribeye steak. A replacement sirloin steak eventually arrived and was charred on the outside and not cooked inside (with no béarnaise sauce) and the chips were cold. My husband asked for strawberry, chocolate and vanilla ice cream and received just strawberry and chocolate. We usually enjoy our meals at Cote but last night was extremely disappointing. We were not charged for the steak or ice cream or service but the bill was still incorrect because we were charged twice for my husband's veal escalope. We will not be going to Cote on a Monday any time soon!
