Not only was all our food delicious, but all the other plates we saw going to other customers looked great too, we had a lovely night, thank you.
Really great food- good quality and timely. We particularly enjoyed the chicken pate. Lovely service, our waitress was friendly and efficient. A nice atmosphere - felt very welcomed and comfortable.
Wide menu, served by friendly and attentive staff. We were made to feel welcome and not rushed. The online booking is simple and fast with conformation e-mails sent promptly. The manager even helped provid change from a £10 note for the on-street parking meters. Perfect for a light business lunch. Thank you.
My daughter, granddaughter and my daughter's partner celebrated my daughter's birthday at Cote in Clifton Village. The service, food and wine were excellent. We also had the best possible table in a quiet alcove which allowed us to enjoy this special occasion even more. This was our 3rd visit to this Cote, which I think is their best one (I have eaten in about 20 different Cote brasseries.
Good food , good atmosphere but tables were cramped up against other tables.Also a round of Gin and tonics was added to our bill despite being the offer of a free g & t with a main course. This did not happen at Cote Cardiff who knew,upon arrival,that we had booked the same offer.
Lovely staff as always but main course disappointing. A great veal chop ruined with a heavy sprinkling of dried tarragon and no sauce. Your a brasserie, do justice to the meat,! Whats wrong with oil, butter, dusting of flour, sage white wine and seasoning? It is quick, tasty and gives a proper sauce.
excellent food and service happy to return and recommend to others
We were well looked after and had some great food. Lovely way to spend my wife’s birthday Special drinks and desert were a nice touch. Will be returning soon
A lovely meal with delicious food, excellent service and great staff. We really enjoyed the evening and the meal was definitely one of the nicest we have eaten at Cote
The veal was superb the service was excellent. The wine was excellent. Who wouldn’t want to eat there ? It’s a definite treat to dine there. I’d recommend it

Always nice food and good choice! It's not the “cheapest” food but its more then worth it! 🤗 Wouldn’t mind if the prices per glas of wine was a bit less.... 😔 but good qualities 😉
After dinning at the Cardiff cotes brassiere last year with my husband and being so impressed I was really keen to take my mum to her local cotes brassiere in Bristol! We were both really disappointed with the entrance into the building! Whilst the restaurant from the front and indeed inside is superb it is bitterly let down by the heavy curtains that adorn the lobby area! It makes it look like you are either entering a funeral parlour or a big top circus! Not a very classy look. I also feel it would of been nice to of had some delicate french music playing as my mum and I were some of the first lunch time diners in the restaurant it felt a little awkward and quite!
We had a lovely meal with family on Friday evening. Very good VFM. Attentive staff. As always a great atmosphere.
Staff we're fab, food Was fab. Really nice evening thanks x
Food and service was first class. Extensive choices on the menu. Very pleasant and helpful staff. Will definitely be coming again when we visit Bristol.
Food was excellent, although there could have been more cheese on the apple and Roquefort starter salad. The staff are always very pleasant and courteous.
Great food even if a little over priced, too many people crammed in for turnover no atmosphere whatsoever, service very good but ruined by forcing them to tend to many tables
Lovely meal great venue and good staff. Menu good but needs a vegan choice.
Busy Mother’s Day sitting however all staff welcoming and attentive. Food was great, atmospwas lovely and we did not feel rushed at any point. Well done Côte Brassiere Clifton Bristol
Super service & food an excellent experience all round, again.
My friends chicken was rather dry! And her first course was rather more potato than cod But my meal was very good As always I love the chips
As always at Cote great food good service reasonable price. This is the 20th Cote visited and all are consistently good. We will be back soon
We went along for the early evening meal deal. One of our party is a vegan. She was given the vegan menu, but when she asked if this was on the offer was told, no, it's more expensive. So a) she is being penalised for being vegan and b) vegan food has no meat or dairy so we are really struggling to understand how that could end up being more expensive. It took two members of staff and much discussion around whether or not she could have the deal. It was so confusing we just gave up and think she ended up paying full price. The service was hit and miss for most of the evening - really under staffed with only a couple of waiting staff running around trying to do everything. The food is nice but the rest could do with some work.
Good, except the mussels in the fish stew weren’t quite right; some hadn’t opened and some that had opened were ‘disappointing ‘ - they were not ‘off’ but they had no good fleshy centre that could be extracted ( I am very familiar with eating mussels). Service and the rest of the meal were good - as usual.
The food choice and quality was great. The atmosphere added to the meal, even on a Saturday night. The service was on par with this, from beginning to end.
Really enjoyed the overall experience with my family Good and friendly service in pleasant atmosphere..will certainly recommend to our friends albeit i it’s one we have visited on many occasions over the past years
Calamari was very crispy and felt like it had been lying around for a while Risotto vert was not great unfortunately. I could taste the basil but not a lot more. I think it needed more seasoning and or some Parmesan cheese to give some depth to it Not the best meal that I’ve eaten in your restaurants. Normally better than this
Excellent food and service on a weekday luncheon. We, a party of four, would recommend the calamari, crab mayonaisse, rump of lamb, roasted cod and pork loin. Noise levels sadly are the only downside.

Great service and lovely food. We were made to feel so welcome and excellent value. Steak and wine great, few more French fries would have been perfect. Praline Crepe epic
Loved it Great food and really organised on a busy day 😀 The Mother’s Day menu was creative and good value for money I really enjoyed the calamari starter!
Fantastic food, fantastic service, buzzing atmosphere and excellent value...thank you for a wonderful meal. We will be back for our next date night/night off from the children!
Great Staff .Great Food. Served in a nice friendly atmosphere what could be better. Thoroughly enjoyed the evening. Long may you continue with serving good at good value.
Always good. Food great, service great. Whole experience excellent Would recommend to friends. Have visited many times. Would recommend most dishes but really enjoy the fish parmienter. Delicious desserts also. Will be back again siib.
Good food, friendly service. Staff warm and welcoming. Food slow to come at a busy time. However, staff were attentive and apologetic. A place we will return to.
Clifton Cote very good service and excellent food as always. However unfortunately my group of three were put between two very noisy tables which spoilt the evening a little. Will try another branch next time.....
Excellent service. Delicious food and good value. We arrived 10 minutes early and were sat straight away. Our waitress was brilliant. We had food from the prestige set menu and it was excellent value; I recommend the pork belly.
As always a lovely evening in CÔTE, great food and perfect service very central location. Always a friendly greeting on arrival. I would recommend it highly
Good attentive service. Interesting menu choice.Excellent well cooked food. Reasonable price. Pity that 'crème brulee' was unavailable (wasn't set). Well worth another visit. Looking forward to Summer menu.
Mothering Sunday lunch - Well Done to all the Staff. A very busy day for them all and the restaurant was packed. But everything ran like clockwork. Food as always 1st class. Thank you
Great atmosphere and excellent service despite the restaurant being very busy. The specials on the menu were excellent!
Lovely meal, we didn’t feel rushed even though it was a busy Saturday lunchtime. I would definitely go again. All the staff were friendly and helpful.
A justifiably busy restaurant with friendly professional staff and good food at sensible prices. Nice atmosphere, if a little noisy. Good for business people and couples.
The restaurants in Clifton get pretty booked at peak periods but thanks to the large capacity, Cote Brasserie could accommodate us for lunch. They were very helpful even when we had to amend our booking (originally submitted online). The premises are rather long following the contour of the street, so has multiple levels with steps up to each area (something to allows for with disabled guests). The layout means there is lots of window area to observed the passersby. The young staff were friendly and efficient, making us feel welcome. We only had a main course so that may have accounted for the delay in serving but it wasn't a problem. The food itself was very good and the rib-eye steak was one of the most tasty and best cooked (rare) I have tasted in quite some time. The tuna steak was equally well cooked with a subtle smoke flavour enhancing the taste experience. The Chicken and Walnut salad was also greatly enjoyed by two of our party. There was a bit of the "self assembly" required of the dishes e.g. fries in pots, etc but not too bad. We also felt for the environment and high quality food, the prices were pleasingly reasonable. A very pleasing experience beyond what we normally expect for a chain. Well done. PS I have posted this to Tripadvisor as well
A wonderful atmosphere, food was superb and the staff were friendly and helpful. We will use Cote Brasseries again and totally recommend it. Clifton, Bristol was full on a Sunday evening, supporting our view that it is a great place to eat.
Food was nice waiter was a bit clueless didn’t bring olives when asked. Wrong food brought to the table for main. No salt and pepper on table. Service could have been better.
Great food and great service. Amazing first experience at this restaurant
Great service and wonderful food, I had the ribeye 🥩 it was so good I’m still talking about it the next day. We had 3 courses and we all enjoyed everything we had. We will be back. Only thing I’d say is that 12.5% gratuity is automatically added to the bill, think that is a bit too much 10% would be enough and if you want to pay more then you can.
Very good food and very pleasant staff. Worth a visit. We are regular clients and really enjoy our meals there, the menu is quite varied and they normally have a special.
We had a very pleasant lunch time. The menu was very good value for money and the staff very attentive. We will visit Cote Brasserie again.
Good food good service would it be possible to ban mobile phones from the restaurant . I’ve been many times and enjoy each time with you
