Côte Barnes

Good food, good and friendly service, good surroundings, competitive price and good value for money, Will look forward to dining again at Cote's. Until next time.....

We know other Cotes well, Sloan Square etc. This was our 1st visit to Cote Barnes and it is terrific! It was a very hot Sunday lunch, but their doors were open onto the duck pond and it was nice, bright and breezy. The servers are welcoming, prompt and charming. The menu(s) is simple, but covers everything you could want. The red house wine was just OK but the food was brilliant! It arrived quickly, was beautifully presented and all tasted delicious. The mussels were a bit small in the fish stew but that must just be the time of year. All good value for money in a very affluent setting. The other customers (sorry darling you must mean clientele) are an author’s dream. It’s worth a visit just to watch them!

Excellent customer service. Staff, restaurant and food were lovely. The only problem was that it was quite cold with the air conditioning but the staff were very helpful and turned it down. Would recommend!

Great atmosphere, nice and spacious seating which is always a plus Great food and great service as always wirh Cotes A fabulous addition to the area

Poor standard overall and had hallmarks of being recently opened. Service staff appeared very inexperienced. Mussels starter had been steamed to death but with many unopened. Steaks were of poor quality and stringy but grilled to required level. Desserts were much better but probably produced offsite. Negotiated reasonable discount but not sure it was enough. Would not recommend until they get their act together. Nice setting though.

Lovely lunch on Barnes Fair day. A welcome seat and a chance to cool off and enjoy steak frites with green salad - very tasty.

A quick pre match supper. Delicious salad with juicy melon, ham and green tomatoes. Comfortable booth seating but the taking orders via tablets needs a bit more work.

Usually rate Cote really highly. Lovely lunch today but calamari was a little overdone (last time it was perfect) and my steak was overdone. Ordered exactly the same last visit and it was perfect. Different chef today? Nevertheless a great location and lovely afternoon.

We went for dinner and had an absolute great time. All the staff we do helpful, accommodating and friendly. The food was fantastic. Love that Cote decided to come to Barnes 💜

Relaxed atmosphere - we had the added bonus of sitting outside. Good value; the food was fresh, seasonal and tasty and we got great service.

good food at good prices in an excellent location. The duck was tender and the pudding was very tasty. We shall certainly return another day.

I thoroughly enjoyed my birthday meal with the family at Côte in Barnes. Good food, nice wine, a cheese platter (not always a given these days) and good Armagnac to finish.

We all found it to be a great place to eat. The food was excellent as was the service from all the staff who were friendly and efficient - well done!

£100 voucher appreciated as gesture of goodwill as a result of food poisoning from mussels at Market Place but surprised to see them still on the menu. Greeted by manager on arrival and given a table I'd requested at the rear. Full marks for decor although very noticeable smell of cooking (most likely fish) when entering front of restaurant and also at the rear although less so near the open windows. Probably issue with your extract. Chose from set menu, two x 2 course and 2 x 3 (Incidetally your A board advertises the 2 course at £16.95 whereas the menu itself is £15.95). We tried to order Campari and Orange but no campari stocked and instead a Gin and Fever Tree tonic but only Shweppes available. Sterters ordered were Duck pate (tasty but too rich) and excellent calamari. Mains were a very mediocre chewey rib-eye and overcooked cod. Your signature 2x chicked though were excellent. We orderd two side salads that were pretty poor with very little dressing and in any case unnecessary if we'd been told the chicken and fish have salads included. Side dishes were spinach (too creamy) but good peas. Deserts were my favourite ice-cream with chocolate sauce but surprised we were charged extra or the mixed sorbet and ice-cream not on the set menu. Good service and advice on wine. Surpised at the size of the bill of £145 for basically 4 set menus and one bottle of wine. Wimbledon has better food and even without the lovely setting of Barnes we're unlikely to return in the forseeable future.

Fab food Great atmosphere Love Cote! Will certainly make it my favourite place to meet friends as the service and menus offer such choices, love it

A very relaxing location with friendly staff. Always a welcoming greeting and great service. Also great to sit outside on a hot day and enjoy the view.

Very good service and nice food. Not sure why we were unable to book for the time we requested ( we asked for 7.30pm and were told only 7.45pm was available). When we arrived there were very many empty tables.

We had a very good evening. We all had the set menu which was excellent and some very good wine. The service was very good too.

Good service, lovely table by the open window and good food selection for a reasonable price. Will definitely go back and look forward to trying the brunch menu.

Good simple well cooked and good service - good value - great asset to Barnes. Could offer more grilled fish and more wine by the glass

I understand they recently opened and are ironing out the kinks. Nice staff but not proficient. food is delayed and every time the chicken is overcookeda dnthe fries undercooked. this has not improved over the past 3 weeks that we have been there. I love Cote in general and hope they can pull it together soon or they may not succeed in Barnes.

Main course was quite cold, but did taste good! A definite improvement from anything we have had before. Service was good and we well looked after!

We chose from the Prestige menu. Calamari was excellent but the pork belly was drowned in thyme and very fatty and whilst I appreciate that pork belly would have fat, it had not been cooked out sufficiently so disappointed. Dessert of peach crumble was also disappointing and we pointed this out so were not charged for this item. The 'fruit' in the dessert was indistinguishable and bland, overcooked. Their house rose wine was not available either.

Fabulous lunch , great food & service. Outsideal seating looking over Barnes Ponds. .with shade..a perfect summer lunch. Beautiful setting plus a lovely restaurant inside too with a feeling of being on the outside - large windows and doors opened up. Great value for money

Lovely breakfast over looking the pond and swans this morning. Great coffee and cooked breakfast for companion. The complet option with croissant and fruit was a bit disappointing but overall a fine visit.

Cote Barnes is in a wonderful setting by the pond and has been beautifully finished. Very friendly and attentive service. The food was excellent as ever. A lovely relaxing and delicious evening, thank you!

A great place to meet up with old friends - we were even given a welcome drink on arrival. Excellent service and excellent value on the three course lunch menu. Will definitely be returning.

this was a first visit to the new Barnes Cote and we thoroughly enjoyed it - good quick service, nice atmosphere and good food - keep it up guys AW

Very good food at a very reasonable price and friendly staff. Lovely decor and great tables with very comfortable chairs. Can’t wait to go back.

Excellent service and good quality food. Lovely house red wine All the staff at the Barnes branch are very accomadating and friendly, would highly recommend

first time at Cote - new- Barnes Manager helpful in getting table near open windows - but how do you reserve a table at cote ? Food very good. Service - was pretty good but its clear operation is still bedding in.

Good service and good food for a young family with kids. Although surprisingly the weekend chicken special was very dry.

Well cooked food in smart brasserie and friendly service in this Barnes branch off the common next to the pond. Great brunch menu too early in the day.

Had wonderful food and service. We didn’t have to wait long for food and the staff were very attentive. Location is perfect and can highly recommend

Fantastic staff and service was a wonderful evening. The manager was lovely they even put a candle in dads pudding for his birthday. Will definitely be going back. Fantastic location tables inside and out. Menu superb lots of choices very good value .

We enjoyed good food efficiently delivered at a fair price. The restaurant was buzzing. Complimentary wine was a bonus. Cote is a welcome arrival in Barnes.

Sauce or the Asparagus was very overloaded with Tarragon. I personally think a less strong herb would go better. Perhaps lemon and chervil? Steaks were bleu not rare but the FANTASTIC Maitre D swiftly brought new ones and adjusted our bill.

Super food, brilliant service. A perfect place for lunch with a friend on a sunny day with the doors open onto the green. We’ll be back.

Great set menu on Sunday evening, friendly staff and delicious Creme Caramel for dessert. A great new local restaurant that has become popular very quickly.

Lovely brunch overlooking the pond. The eggs florentine was too over powered with garlic for me, but the waiter insist d I had another without the garlic without charge.
