Côte Basingstoke

Fabulous food and service, we’ll be back. Thank you. Waiter brilliant fun and even sang Happy Birthday plus added a candle to our friends dessert. Lovely offers if you sign up to the newsletter

Sadly the service has really dropped off in the last couple of weeks. Today I ordered a bottle of water and after 10 minutes I had to ask again. It then arrived with ice which I had said I did not want. The waiter tried to serve me the wrong main course. Inexperienced staff and maybe not enough of them. It’s a pity because the food is so good.

Pleasant staff, good service, excellent food. Glad to have a branch of this restaurant in Basingstoke. Look forward to many more meals here - thanks very much

Lovely meal as always, food is delicious had steak and it’s always cooked to how I like it. Service is very good.

Lovely food, service and a great atmosphere, will go again

Was truly amazing food was so tasty, service was fantastic , will certainly go back as there was such a big menu choice, we had a great evening

Burnt burgers,no sauces,1 meal arrived 10 mins after the rest

Excellent service and food. Our table was a little small, but tucked away by the window which was good.

Lovely restaurant service was good although the kitchen lost my dessert order but the waiter chased it up promptly as we were having to leave and knocked it off the bill. The food was very good. Will definitely go back.

Lovely staff lovely breakfast and overall nice atmosphere! Booked online so no waiting. Evening meals great too! A nice and different type of restaurant for Basingstoke!

Great service. Great food. A small mistake with dessert not arriving time But rectified with taking that and coffeez off of ouf bill and free kir royals on our next visit x. Would highly recommend

Came to restaurant to celebrate my husband's birthday with 2 other people.we had a lovley meal.Food service as usual was very very good. Will definitely be back.

Went on our wedding anniversary and had a lovely evening, food and service were first class. Thank you we couldn’t have asked for a nicer evening.

Lovely food ,lovely venue, polite staff and service was quick.

We waited for over 20 minutes. No one came over to take our order or even offer a drink. I said to someone as we left that we were disappointed with the service and the response was ok then! It seemed the restaurant was short of staff. I accept that this can be a problem however if we would have been made aware of this when we were seated I would have been fine with this. Very disappointed as we are a regular. We will not return

Excellent service - our waiter was attentive without being intrusive. Fantastic value for money (we had the set menu) really lovely ambience too. Would definitely go again.

A perfect experience from start to finish.. we highly recommend!! We will be returning in the near future. Thank you for a wonderful evening :-)

Excellent food and service up to the point of getting the bill. We were charged for a bottle of wine that was supposed to be free and had to wait more than half an hour to pay.

Portions should be bigger for the price could Ofer Bread for free !

Lovely meal food all came out hot and very tasty, fish pie is one of the best I’ve tasted, the crepes very nice, staff and service very good

Whole experience just lovely! Wonderful food great staff & great atmosphere! Cannot wait to go again! Went with a group of 7 girls to celebrate birthday. Great location in centre of town.

Family of 5 celebrating my wife's birthday (advised restaurant of this in advance when booking) Service at beginning was very good - starters and mains well timed, good portions and tasted good (although had to return birthday girl's main as order was incorrect - but done so swiftly and without fuss) Then felt very abandoned - had to walk around the restaurant looking for someone to take dessert order after waiting 25 minutes. The profiteroles special was poor quality and would advise against. No effort made re wife's birthday celebration - with so much competition for diners in Basingstoke, restaurants have to go the extra mile to stand out and sadly Cote didn't on this occasion.

Service and food was great only downside they did not have my first choice being the pork belly! This is twice that I have been that they did not have this choice

Great food and service but I do not agree with the pre-added 12.5% service charge. The restaurant will say you can remove it as it is optional but why should the customer be put in this position. A shame this put a dampener on an otherwise good experience. This will put me off returning.

excellent service, and food. our waitress was attentive and friendly, it was a nice setting. the area was slightly warmer than was comfortable but that is probably because it was so busy. would recommend the moules!

Service was fantastic, food was delicious, atmosphere was superb. Only criticism was the music was a little loud.

Had a lovely Mother’s Day Lunch. My first visit to a Cote restaurant, friendly staff, good service and lovely food. Will definitely be coming back again soon.

Welcomed nicely and decent space between tables. Waiters smiling and helpful. Food good.

Great meal, but on a table for 2 right by the door, would have been nicer for the tables for 2 to feel a bit more secluded when coming out for a romantic dinner.

Excellent experience, from booking on line to payment. The staff were incredibly polite and helpful without being intrusive.

As always, very consistent and tasty food with excellent service. Sinead was a delight. Oh, and the wine wasn't too bad either!

We have visited the restaurants either in Basingstoke or Winchester. We now have the resturant in Basingstoke and we are local to this resturant. . It has a fabulous atmosphere, the staff are lovely warm and friendly plus knowledagble of wines and food. The food is always of a high standard, whats there not to like! We are not afraid to recommend friends to the restaurant as the the quality of the food and the welcome received are consistent. Ros and John Clement

The food was very tasty. The fish parmentier had lots of fish. The chicken supreme was lovely. The pommes rissoles were crisp and flavoursome. We had a lovely meal and the two nabagers were friendly and helpful. .

Had the best experience this evening at Cote - it was very quiet (given the circumstances) but honestly such lovely staff, amazing food and beautiful atmosphere. Really should be showing our support for the hospitality sector who are still working so hard over this uncertain time. Massive appreciation for all the staff tonight being so attentive and cheerful.

It was very quiet and a difficult time due to Covid19 but we were treated well and the food was very good too, we will be back, when we are allowed! Good luck to the team, during these difficult times.

It was quiet but food was as delicious as usual.

My friends and I rated our experience at Cote as excellent, in terms of the food and the wonderful service. I have one little niggle - when I booked I was not given accurate information about how far we needed to walk to get to the theatre. That's all!

Great evening in Cote Basingstoke with friends as we usually do

I had the 2 course Prestige Menu which was excellent. Calarami followed by Rid Eye Steak. Excellent service and nice atmosphere. Thankyou.

Good welcoming staff and wide range of menu options for early evening

The staff are so friendly and welcoming and deliver fantastic customer service, the food is delicious which all makes for a really wonderful experience.

We were on a short turn around (to go see 1917) and the staff were brilliant ! Dane & Sue, Winchester

Another wonderful dining experience at Cote Basingstoke. I have been to the restaurant in a big group of 7, a smaller group of 4 and just as a couple and it has been excellent every time

Great service and atmosphere. Friendly staff and plenty of choice. Our food was good and generous portions.

Great food and calming atmosphere. Highly recommended. Clean and chic layout.

I have been going to Cote restaurants for many years and never had a disappointing meal. The service has always been exceptional too so I was overjoyed that Cote decided to open in Basingstoke...at last a change to the usual fast food places when I want to go with friends to the cinema or theatre or a girlie shopping trip. Cote have incorporated all the usual high standards in a lovely restaurant, beautifully decorated and furnished, with discrete ambient lighting. You could even imagine you were in a chic town in France rather than Basingstoke! We enjoyed a really tasty meal, ribeye steak and pork tenderloin finished with the ‘must have’ creme caramel that Cote do so much better than anyone else. We won’t eat anywhere else now.

A good meal with attentive service. Eating late afternoon the restaurant was quiet which limits the ambiance but we enjoyed the meal and will be coming again.

Had a lovely evening for my friends birthday, Champagne was flowing, service was great and food was delicious, compliments to the chef, 8 clean plates. We were the last ones to leave and didn’t feel rushed. Would highly recommend and will be back again 😊

Great service, great food, great atmosphere - a fantastic experiences as always!

A warm welcome and friendly service. Restaurant atmosphere was good and food tasty. We thoroughly enjoyed my husband’s birthday lunch.
