Côte Winchester

A wonderful Bretton fish stew as always! Plus cheery staff and ambience. There are other really good meals on the menu and changing every month.

Took my daughter there on her 18th birthday. The food was excellent as was the service.... The staff were very helpful and cheerful and the menu had a good choice as did the special lunch menu.

Bit of an unenthusiastic welcome from the greeter. Good service and very good food. Chicken choices excellent. Don't like paying extra for bread and sauces.

I always enjoy the food and the service at Cote in Winchester. It isn't haute cuisine but is excellent value for money and is suitable for "ladies who lunch" frequently!

Great Staff and Excellent Food, easy parking location, Amazing Venue, best starters and mains ever, will be back here soon enough for more Excellent Food

A tasty meal, nice wine, good service. I took my wife and another couple here and they all enjoyed it every bit as much as I did,

Lovely friendly and efficient service from Hope. Food excellent, as always. A very reliable restaurant chain. Well managed. Similar service levels in all branches I have visited. No mean feat.

Unfortunately a long wait and then tepid food , however, very fairly we were not charged for the meal only drinks. Will visit again as usually very good.

My lunch was excellent and I think everyone enjoyed their choices, no complaints which is unusual as we do not hesitate to complain if unsatisfied !

Great midweek set menu. Alcohol free beer was available which was great! Service was good and always a nice busy atmosphere. Lovely for a larger group as well as a small quiet dinner

Would have been higher but the waitress was a little rude towards the end of the meal. She constantly tried to upsell us "Oh don't drink that wine drink this one" and "Are you going to be boring and not have a dessert?" The food was lovely and very tasty and the venue is equally nice. But when your waitress complains that she won't receive much of the 'included' tip and that she'd prefer if we gave her cash....it's going to leave a bad taste in your mouth.

A very pleasant evening with family. Service attentive and efficient. Although the menu doesn't change a great deal there was plenty to choose from. Good value for money, convivial atmosphere and tasty food.

Staff very friendly and atmosphere is very nice. The menu is not updated enough. Some of the portions are not enough. Better selection of beers would also be good. Just small bottles of larger available. They are expensive too.

"Warm goats cheese" salad served with also "warm" roasted vegetables on a bed of lettuce which wilted it. My steak rapide was barely warm , which means it must have been waiting a long time before being brought to the table. Not up to the usual Cote standard of other branches!

A pleasant lunch, reasonable value . Restaurant a little noisy, and wine a little warm, Second time this has happened, perhaps it would be a good idea to store the wine in the fridge before placing in Ice bucket

Perfect brunch place for 3 hungry children after landing from Asia. Great eggs and even a vegetarian option for one of the children. Coffee was great, waitering staff welcoming and kitchen staff accommodating for requests of small changes in the set breakfast. Well Done!

Food and service very good but sitting upstairs it was difficult to hear each other. Maybe some sound absorbing ceiling tiles would help. Servings are generous.

We arrived for lunch at 12:30 and left at about 16:30 so I think that says something about how much we enjoyed the ambience. The food on the whole was very good. Just one exception and that was an under ripe melon which couldn't be eaten. This was not brought to the attention of our friendly waiter and was not charged on the bill.

Great authentic brasserie style french restaurant with tasty food. Friendly staff and a good vibrant atmosphere. Wide menu with plenty of choice including desserts. Definitely recommended.

Lovely restaurant, with a great, varied menu. The staff were nice and welcoming, and made a real difference. Food was excellent! Definitely recommend the Coupe Noire for dessert!

A great evening of good food, wine & excellent service from very friendly staff. It was our first visit it will not be our last.

Everything very good, food and staff. Only negative was air conditioner above us which made it rather cold, my wife had to put her coat back on.

Very good service from friendly, smiling waiting staff. We enjoyed our food from the set menu and it was very good value. We will definitely come again.

Service was excellent. However menu could have more variety, but the food was nice! Only thing that let the experience down was another couple being rude next to us.

What I like about Cote is that every time we go, and we have been regularly, the food is always of really good and dependable quality. It consistently outperforms all other restaurant chains in this area.

Côte is a reliable chain of brasseries that we came across a few years ago, and visit the Winchester branch regularly. The 10th birthday menu was excellent. Please put the crottin salad back on the regular menu!

The food was excellent as always, the staff friendly and efficient. The reason I have marked my experience as a four was because of where we were seated - directly opposite the bar/coffee machine area on a table for two. This was also the area where cutlery is stored and plates/cups etc. it was SO noisy, on occasions we couldn't hear each other speak. The staff are busy and need to clear tables, restock the cutlery etc but I think they were unaware how much noise they were making., avoid sitting in this area if you book however I am a huge fan of cote brasserie and the food is consistently very good and great value

Really enjoyed food but the noise levels were extreme,I do not think we will visit again on a Saturday it was impossible to have any conversation and very intrusive.

We had a lovely lunch, attentive staff & very good food as usual. We came into Winchester from the station & turned down High St to start with. Walked down to King Alfred statue before we realized we'd gone in the wrong direction on High St!

Had a really good time and we all enjoyed our food. Service was attentative and friendly and we felt the portion size was larger than on previous visits.

We had the set menu and everything we both had was delicious. Excellent service...no complaints at all. Will be returning soon. Very,very yummy! Thank you

Pleasant location near the Great Hall, friendly staff who were very helpful, attentive but not intrusive and the food was up to the standard expected.

Very good dinner,staff superb and good value,will use again and again,well done,the manager a lady was so attentive and the staff well presented and dressed properly

Cote is always very good. The set menu is excellent value and the portions are generous. As always, the staff are courteous and efficient. Food is served in a timely fashion and hot meals are served on hot plates; this doesn't happen elsewhere and it should.

Good place to meet6 friends from both east of Winchester as well as East of the town. Very relaxed atmosphere which allows for a meal where it is conducive to chat the evening away.

The food as ever was excellent and the service friendly but unobtrusive. This has become our favourite restaurant in Winchester which is saying something as there are many good restaurants

Food and service were great . Can recommend the steak and frites in particular.The restaurant is large with plenty of space between tables so high degree of privacy.

A great 'buzzing' atmosphere, friendly and good service. Delicious food. A good choice of venue to celebrate a twenty first birthday with all the family

Very good service but food a bit uninspired but atmosphere and location excellent . Quite good value having said that . Would go again for a large group no problem.

Super food, attentive service. Lacking in atmosphere but that was due to our requirements, table booked for 3.45 and following a busy lunch service, our table wasn't ready and as were were the only diners, the usual atmosphere was lacking

Lovely restaurant with very friendly staff. Lots of choice and some traditional French food you don't often see. Good children's menu and very good with the kids (which it didn't look like from the outside) though no activities for the kids so maybe bring your own coloring if you have them. Much bigger restaurant than it looks from the outside.

We came for the lunch time set menu, a good choice, excellent value and great service. Always impressed with the quality of food and the service at the restaurant
