A very enjoyable evening at Cote Bournemouth. The food was very good and the staff were extremely helpful. Have now had breakfast and dinner there and can highly recommend both.

We visited Cote Bournemouth with a group of friends. We received a very warm friendly greeting and were shown to our table. Our drinks arrived swiftly. One of our party was late to arrive so we waited to order until she was with us. The staff were great - checking we were ok for drinks while we waited etc. We all ordered off the set daytime menu and the food was excellent. There was plenty of choice including vegetarian dishes. None of us could manage a pudding - even though they looked delicious! We will definitely be coming back, thank you Cote!

Food good, service very slow but friendly, air conditioning unit raining heavily on me and my silk trousers rather spoiled what had been a lovely evening.

Located centrally with a great corner position. This new Cote Brasserie lives up to its other restuarnts. The service is just as attentive and friendly, the food as delicious and satisfying and the prices always fair for the quality. We are really happy to have this restuarant in our local area.

Good decor and atmosphere, as with other Cotes that we have tried elsewhere. Food was fresh and very tasty (breakfast), but service,although pleasant, was on the slow side. Coffee was not hot enough. Seemed to be a number of staff who were welcoming and/or supervising but not enough actually taking orders/serving. It's early days as the brasserie has only been open 3 weeks and no doubt service will soon be up to Cote standard. We are very happy that Cote has come to Bournemouth and we will certainly visit again very soon.

We had the 10 year anniversary menu, and our party of 4 thought the food was very good indeed. Our waitress was charming and attentive and the ambience downstairs was good. We had a corner table which felt more private. Some of the other tables are very close together, with little space for guests and staff to pass by. Well presented and good food, reasonably priced, friendly professional staff.

Beautiful restaurant and very good service. Food overall was excellent but some elements lacked finesse. For example the risotto tasted great but the rice was overcooked and starchy. Prices were reasonable for the quality of food provided and I would go again as plenty of choice on the menu.

Excellent front of house and waiting staff all with a pleasant and welcoming manner. Compared to previous visits to Cote Brasserie elsewhere however the meal was disappointing. Rib eye steak dry and fibrous , very slightly ameliorated with a side of garlic butter. Creamed spinach (£3.95) totally inedible. I quietly advised the waiting staff of this but received no apology nor goodwill gesture. Will certainly give them another chance but they must appreciate they are in a crowded market !

We had the set menu - 3 course which was very good value for the money but the starters were the weakest part- pissaladiere & frisee salad were only just warm Lacked "fresh texture". The rest of the meal was enjoyable. We will go again & try the a la carte

Friendly service however chef not too good . First, waitress told me chef had overcooked my chicken and I could have a different chicken meal which would not involve too long a wait.. when it arrived it was dreadful.. very dry and overcooked and I ended up not eating. Another member of our group ordered rare steak and got medium.. Poor

Excellent food, good service and fantastic value. Highly recommended . I would have been happy to pay considerably more for the set lunch menu Also for those out there who are hard of hearing, unusually the acoustics allowed me to actively take part in the conversation at my table without saying "pardon ?" Every few minutes! We were at a downstairs table .

Staff were great. Super friendly and helpful. They went above and beyond to ensure we enjoyed our meal. Wasn't bowled over by any of the 3 menus though. Feels like they could have less dishes available but do something a little unique.

Great service, excellent food, and attention to detail, although the seating is a little too close for access at busy times … Highly recommended to experience if thinking of going. Been patiently waiting for the opening of this restuarant chain here in Bournemouth and was not dissappointed

Excellent atmosphere enhanced by the fact it was a Friday night. Staff looked pleased to be there and keen to work hard for customers. It becomes immediately more expensive after 7 p.m without the early dinner menu however.
