The service was excellent, and the first course of steak frites was lovely, however my desert of tarte fine aux pommes was not crispy but rubbery and luke warm and hard to cut.

We had a great meal from the early diner menu, we visited on a Tuesday evening before going to see Ed Byrne at the Pavillion. The food was tasty, hot and served by attentive friendly staff. No complaints.

Great meal would be useful if more was made of separate vegetarian menu as one member of party was veggie and had no idea there was a different menu. But still had a good evening.

The food and service were good. The only downsides were that I would have expected fresh orange juice, not from a carton, and the portions weren't what you would call generous in size.

It’s great to have a CÔTE in Bournemouth at last - have eaten in various CÔTE restaurants over a few years now and always had a good experience. The Bournemouth CÔTE continues that enjoyment- good friendly service, good food & drinks, excellent menu choices and good value for money. Very happy.

Had brunch at cote brasserie today with my parents the restaurant had a lovely atmosphere , we were seated upstairs with a lovely view over the gardens, our waitress was very attentive but gave us plenty of time to choose from the extensive menu and helped us by suggesting we take advantage of the breakfast deal , orange juice and a hot drink included with any cooked breakfast. The food when it arrived was plentiful , hot and nicely cooked. We were not rushed to leave the table once we had finished which made our experience nice and relaxed. I will most certainly be returning and recommending to friends.

Very small meals for a man as they come and really needs several extra sides which makes a fairly average choice very expensive for what it is

Relaxed atmosphere and awesome food. It's a chain restaurant that manages to feel like an independent with attentive but not overpowering service and it made for a great evening

What can I say......fourth visit in as many months and have received the same consistent high level of service and quality of food. The thing that topped last night's visit was the waiter who processed our payment recognising us from NYE. We will be back ☺

Food, drink very good. Although neither main dish came with vegetables so had to order on top. The optional service charge was never given as an option. Which at 12.5% seems incredibly high! If given the option would happily tipped but not at 12.5%.

We had a perfect ‘Beat the winter blues’ lunch at Côte Bournemouth today including a free bottle of wine with a voucher we received in December. The food was delicious, the atmosphere just right and staff did not rush us over our lengthy lunch. Highly recommended.

My wife and I dined at the Bournemouth Restaurant last night having already booked. We were greeted by a vey pleasant waiter and had the benefit of choosing a table. The restaurant was far from full. However, after that we were attended by the manager who's sole aim seemed to be to serve with the utmost speed possible at the expense of any customer care or pleasantries at all. Dishes were presented to us with gusto, water bottles plonked on the table as she rushed on by to other tables. There was a complete absence of being made to feel welcome or valued as customers. When the time came to pay the bill, the 12.5% gratuity was added. I took the opportunity at this point to mention in a gentle polite way about how we both felt about the treatment received. We had an intense assertive tirade of defensiveness and was informed of her onerous duties that she had to concentrate on over the whole floor! Unfortunately unable to accept her customer's impression or comments on her performance she maintained her position of knowing better. Fortunately the meal was up to the usual high standard and the complimentary wine was OK. We understand that the manager is not normally based at this restaurant and so will no doubt return.

Delicious food with a substantial gluten free menu. Friendly staff and the service was good. A bit cheeky to add on a 12.5% gratuity charge but would recommend to others nonetheless.

Always reliable for tasty, good quality food as experienced in London and Salisbury, this is the second visit to Cote Bournemouth and, thankfully, there has been time for the problems with the slightly chaotic service during the first visit to be ironed out. Now service is as good as it should be and we look forward to a third visit.

Service and food was excellent. The range of dishes available on the menu caters for the majority of diners and there is also a well balanced wine list.
