Delightful meal from the Premium menu, all the nicer in the knowledge this is the last restaurant meal for months. In the almost empty restaurant was surprised that another couple were seated right next to us, just the otherwise of the banquette. My French onion soup as good and the salmon with fennel perfectly cooked, crisp skin, moist flesh and the fennel still with a bit of bite. My companion's beetroot salad and chichi with grain potatoes looks good too.

We felt we were very close to other diners. Unnecessarily so as one end of the restaurant was completely empty. Staff were as helpful as ever.

Over an hours wait for our food - apparently a problem in the kitchen but no extra drink or similar by way of an apology. The pudding my husband chose was unavailable. Our first time back since lockdown and overall a disappointing e perience.

So glad that Barbican Cote is back in business, very well organised for Covid anxieties. Long may it last ... Lovely Eggs benedict, Croque Madame etc for family brunch again. Excellent steak/frites and creme caramel for lunch three days ago, two days after opening. Promise to eat here as much as I can for as long as I can.

As always a delicious meal with attentive efficient service and in a spacious, light and pleasant setting. The pre-theatre menu is very good value. Would always recommend.
