Perfect! Great food, excellent service. So happy to be back in our favourite local restaurant xxx
Great to see Cote is open and as usual we had a great experience!
It was actually the first time my family went out for a restaurant dinner since the Lockdown. Great experience and Food! Also nice to see that all employees were wearing face shields and that there were several hand sanitizers. Thank you very much!
Overall, a very good experience. Good food, a buzzy atmosphere and reasonable value.
The staff are wonderful food good too. Had a great time
Great team great food great service Glad you are back.
Soooo happy you are back!! We have missed you guys and your excellent food!
Overall very good - nice to be back and see staff trying to get back to 'normal'
Cote in Barnes is my favourite place. Nice atmosphere and extremely professional and friendly staff. The atmosphere like at home :-))))
Nice selection on the menu, although it would be nice to have the carrots back on the menu. Very friendly staff and great customer service.
All good other than the tables are old And feel sticky as the lacquer is coming off A sticky table in a Covid world is not acceptable- through them out !
Lovely to be back. This is such a beautiful building and looking out over the pond is the perfect setting.
Great to have Cote open again in Barnes - welcome back!
Always great food and caters for children so well whilst still keeping adults happy without resorting to the usual tomato pasta etc, would be great to have even more adult style dishes available for kids - so glad you are back open again!!
The staff are always friendly and helpful, the food is always first rate. Love that Cote is open again!
So happy that you are back.!!!!!!!L!We loved our delicious dinner last night,and the amazing service and friendly staff.
Delicious food and great service 🤩! Thank you so much!
Welcome back! The Eat Out to Help Out made it even nicer. It is difficult to hear the staff behind their masks.
We were warmly welcomed by a very efficient manager. She responded to my email request to be seated in the pond end of the restaurant and even though we had to wait for our table she was very engaging throughout. All the staff were highly diligent in their various roles. The food was amazing. Our party of 6 couldn’t fault our experience. We will certainly return. Thank you Cote Barnes.
It was great to return to Côte Barnes and see the usual staff back at work under the direction of Lucy. Once again the food was excellent as was the service. Great to hear that you’re continuing Côte at Home, which we have used during lockdown and will continue to do so.
Very Poor experience overall , started badly as we didn’t get the table we clearly requested when we booked via email ( we asked for a table on the side of the restaurant , by the pond ) we clearly made the request but it was totally ignored , when I pointed it out we were told that it wasn’t possible however there were free tables on that side as we came in and talked to the manager , I even pointed out at the free table but no , we were seated elsewhere The lady in charge told us that we could move soon once some other tables by the side cleared , however that didn’t happen , again I did see empty tables there but nobody offered us to move again . To follow we were ignored by the front of house and a table of two that came after us got to order , and eat , before we did ! The food was completely bland , I had a burger which was simply not good enough , and my wife the lobster which at nearly £30 was nowhere near as good as you would expect I appreciate the fact that it was busy but the service and Especially the welcome we got wasn’t good enough Last , I ordered a glass of house rose but was charged for the more expensive one , I did point it out when the bill came but the lady made me feel like it was my mistake , when clearly Wasn’t as I actually pointed out with my finger on the wine menu the one I wanted to the server , it was only a £2 difference but that’s not the point as I should have been charged for the one I ordered , the lady offered i refund , after I paid , which was slightly embarrassing in front of my family Overall not good at all
As usual Cote Barnes provided an excellent brunch. Staff all very attentive and professional. Food excellent and service excellent. The restaurant was very busy in the first week of reopening post COVID 19 lockdown hence not 6 stars overall as there were probably a few too many customers than we would have preferred given the current situation. Otherwise a perfect lunch.
A most enjoyable lunch with great service and food and drinks
We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Côte Barnes on its opening day, and were pleased to see how busy it was. The tables were sensibly spaced and the staff welcoming despite their face shields, so we felt quite relaxed. The food was delicious (seabream and pork belly for mains, chocolate mousse and crême caramel to follow). And when I left the restaurant without my bag, someone rushed into the street after us to return it, so thank you especially to the waiter concerned !
Genuinely delighted to have Côte reopen here in Barnes. The staff couldn’t do enough for us and the food was spot on. We will see you soon.
Good service and food of the usual reliable quality that you'd expect of Cote.
A great venue, excellent service always great value. We were 10 , 6 adults 4 kids, so it’s fab that the kids can get down and play outside where we can still see them We will be back for sure Brian Teale
Lovely early birthday celebration- George the manager always makes me feel like ‘family’. Delicious dinner. Good atmosphere and just a great evening. Lovely service.thank you 10/10
Very nice steaks and salmon. Apart from a slight delay in getting water and drinks on arrival- it was busy- service speeded up and was very attentive. And they even divided the children’s steaks and desserts before bringing them to the table. Consistently good food here and reasonable value too.
Cote is such good value, especially before 7pm. The food is delicious. I went with 5 friends, and we all enjoyed the food. The wine we ordered was not quite chilled enough so we all got a glass of wine on the house while it was chilling. The staff there are amazing and really welcome you. there is no pressure to leave so we were there for two and a half hours enjoying the ambience
Excellent restaurant and great value serving wonderful food at realistic prices. That's why it's always busy. Great chef and friendly waiting staff. Sometimes when it's busy with families it can get a bit noisy but good food makes up for this. A real gem in Barnes.
Excellent . Staff were very friendly and attentive - I had two small children with me and they provided drinks quickly and crayons etc. Very few people in the restaurant so limited atmosphere - one other group had children who were noisy
AS usual, Cote provided a great Brasserie lunch. Good food and great atmosphere. Cote Barnes has a really nice view over the green and pond.
Delicious food and great service.Lovely view over Barnes Green. Highly recommend for a well priced enjoyable meal. Will definitely return again for another visit. Thank you
Another excellent meal we can’t help just going back again and again always meeting friends who feel the same when there. The service is excellent atmosphere just right and most importantly food delicious and so well presented with a reasonable bill at the end. Thanks to all
There was a party of seven, each choosing a different two or three course set meal. Clear plates would suggest that everyone enjoyed the food and all would like a return visit in the near future, possibly at lunch time or maybe for Brunch?
We booked for Mother’s Day at the restaurant in Barnes and, considering how extremely busy it was, the food options, quality of food, service and atmosphere were impeccable. We were a party with two unders two year olds too and staff were really attentive and considerate of our needs. Perfect!
Fantastic service. Great food. Nice alternative to a Sunday roast.
My parents and I have been going to this branch since it opened. The food tonight was as ever up to standard. The attention the staff gave to my elderly parents was fantastic. They are always so attentive to their needs. When I go there with my parents I can relax, as I know we are in good hands.
Amazing food and service. Seven of us went for breakfast, it was great food and good value!
