Lovely food, lovely staff. An un-hurried lunch in a relaxing atmosphere. Always delighted with the quality of the food and the excellent service at Cote, Cheltenham.
My friend and I had excellent service, the staff were very friendly and attentive and the food we ordered was excellent. We enjoyed the experience immensely.
Friendly, efficient service and the cooked breakfasts that we each had were excellent: cooked exactly as requested. The apple juice was lovely. Not too sweet, not too sharp and really tasted of apples.
My wife & I had a most enjoyable meal today, April 1st. Thank you we will certainly visit again either in Cheltenham or at another location.

Excellent food, attentive and friendly service. We requested a quiet (if possible) table because two of our guests were elderly and hard of hearing and this was accommodated as far as was possible for the restaurant. Very impressed.
Very friendly and attentive staff, despite our very late arrival on a Sunday. Good usual high standard and quality. We will definitely stop by again.
the food was very good. Service was attentive and friendly. I've sat both upstairs and downstairs in this restaurant and its very noisy either way
Buzzy atmosphere. You get very good food with lots of choice and very reasonably priced. Fast and efficient service and the early bird set menu is very good value for money

Efficient staff - not too interfering, getting the balance right. Food is consistent irrespective of which Cote you use , and of a good quality.
Good location, lovely view from top window. Nice staff, good food. Good value. Don't like service charge being put on bill, would give tip anyway
Great atmosphere. Consistently good food. Service is always friendly and welcoming. Always greeted with a smile. I enjoy visiting this particular restaurant in the chain.
great food! good staff but service a little slow…..when I ordered a second glass of wine the waitress brought a second beer for my husband that he didn't order and no wine for me. This was later rectified but not for about 10/15 mins. Having said this the restaurant was busy and overall we enjoyed ourselves.
Had a delicious breakfast for Mother's Day, excellent staff who were very efficient and accommodating. Would recommend to anybody looking for a nice place to eat!
The table allocated was up a steep flight of stairs which proved difficult for two in the party. The service was slick but a large group came in and the noise levels were so high that we could not converse. The waitress was not helpful but a second member of staff did offer to move us. We finished out main courses and moved to the lower floor for dessert and coffee. We did not like the suggested gratuity being added on to the bill. They forgot to add in the coffees so we paid enough to cover all we had had but did not leave a tip. I will not be returning in the near future as the discomfort of the building outweighs the good food.
.no benefit to us to have free wine. There were 4 of us having set menu at lunchtime so free bottle not allowed we were looking forward to it!
Superb food and wine in great surroundings, fantastic service well recommended and the French onion soup was the best i've ever tasted ! Can't wait to go again !
Food was good as always but, although our starter arrived in good time, we then waited a very, very long time for our main course. Our waitress chased it up but staff then arrived with someone else's order and we waited a further time for our meals. Although they were busy, it was Cheltenham Jazz Festival, other people were getting their meals served much quicker. As it was we had to forego our dessert to get to the concert in time. Disappointing. However the plus side was that we were not charged for my meal and my husband had a complimentary glass of wine. Overall I felt they responded positively but I know my husband will be reluctant to go back soon unfortunately.
Excellent meal and attentive service as ever. The boudin noir starter was particularly good. I would certainly have that again. My only problem was with the new online booking system. I had to phone the restaurant to check that my booking had been received as I didn't receive an email confirmation.
The meal was very good but the restaurant was too busy. The service throughout was slow with a long wait even to order our first drinks on arrival. Having been to cote many times, it seems they are booking in more people they can comfortably cater for.
Although they had an issue with their booking system going down. On one of their busiest days they appeared to cope extremely well and we were offered adequate compensation for the problems. The food was excellent as always as was the service. Would recommend.
The evening didn't start too well but improved as time wore on. We had a reservation at 8:00 pm but had to wait as our table hadn't been set up after the last visitors had left. We were also told that various menu choices were no longer available. Not really a problem but what did become a problem was that we noticed there was no cutlery laid on the table. OK, so they'll bring it with the meal, we thought. We ordered our drinks, starters and main meals and in due course the starters turned up - some hot, some cold. Problem was, we still had no cutlery! We asked about it and it appeared there wasn't any. We had to wait with the hot starters cooling off while the staff washed up knives and forks which took well over ten minutes. We have been to Cote many times and this was a first for them and certainly a first for any restaurant we'd ever been to before. However, in mitigation, it was a Bank Holiday Monday as well as the last day of the Cheltenham Jazz Festival and our booking was slightly later than usual. We guessed the restaurant had been exceptionally busy that evening. I must also add though, that the food was very good and we did all enjoy our evening and will certainly be returning. The service was also good with the staff coping well after what must have been a very tiring day.
Mothering Sunday was a busy day and our late-minute, on-line booking was for 3pm. Staff had obviously had a busy time and people were queuing. Staff were still friendly and attentive. Meal was delicious. Would recommend.
I booked this lunch today for my wife's birthday, we happen to use this restaurant on a fairly regular basis and again we were pleased with the level of service and the quality and presentation of the food. Well done to Richard and his team.
Excellent, staff great and food spot on. Forgot one of the side dishes but the food and services more than made up for it. Happy.

Very busy. Food good. They forgot to put our main course order through and we were in a hurry to go to a concert so we had to wait about 45 mins for the main course. However, they did manage to rectify the situation, apologised and reduced our bill by more than half without being asked which was a very nice gesture. We will go again.
a very pleasant lunch, good food, great atmosphere and fine service. would go again and recommend to others ! cant really fault it at all.
The restaurant had a great atmosphere. The food was wonderful and served at a leisurely rate so that we didn't feel rushed. We will definitely be back.
For a chain they do things very well. Carefully constructed menu and staff who are happy to engage. Excellent fixed price value and inventive marketing offers. Clearly doing well and deserves to.
Good service; food was excellent - plaice (special) and steak. A wee bit more side salad on the plate and it would have been a full 5 stars. A good buzz in the restaurant.
Great food...excellent service.Early dinner before concert at Cheltenham Jazz Festival. Will certainly return to Cheltenham and more Cote restaurants. Looking forward to the new opening in Gloucester
Great food, great service. booked on impulse at last minute, and very pleased. The French onion soup and haddock were outstanding. Two Gluten free people well catered for. Excellent. Will go again.
Excellent. Being Cheltenham's Racing Festival week, it was very full. Tables can be larger and lighting is so subdued that reading the menu was difficult. The service, food and wine were very good.

Good atmosphere. Staff are very polite and helpful. The food ordered arrived in good time. The ribeye steak was cooked as ordered and a pleasure to eat. Previous dishes I have sampled have been equally good. I have visited twice now and I have no hesitation in going again.
super quality food and nicely presented, prices are very good. Excellent service, always an enjoyable place to go to have an evening out For two or with friends.
Great food and atmosphere. Very busy Sunday lunch, insufficient waiting staff. Highly recommend this establishment in a great location in Cheltenham. They also have tables outside.
Good experience with excellent food and atmosphere. The service was good. Would have liked them to have fruit teas on offer. Dealt with my lactose intolerance satisfactorily.
Great service, fantastic value for money with the fixed menu before 7 and really delicious food. Would definitely visit again next time I'm in Cheltenham.
Great food - fish always very fresh and delicious. Lovely waiter - very good service, always made to feel welcome. Very busy - nice, buzzy atmosphere.
Great meal in a very busy service. We choose from the early menu and had chicken for mains, delicious. Staff very helpful and friendly. We will be back!
Good service on a busy night. Tasty wel cooked food. Lighting a little dim but that is very French anyway! Polite and helpful staff as always.
Good quality food and wine, nice table in a very pleasant restaurant spoiled by inconsistent service. Service was very good to begin but from collecting our plates after main course the waitress ignored us for more than 35 minutes. My wife went to see the manager at the greeting point and he dealt with the issue very efficiently. Sadly the waitress never came to apologise, just to say sorry would have been good. The manager did not charge for our deserts and removed the service charge when requested. This could have been a very favourable review if not for this lapse by the waitress.
The restaurant was clean and comfortable. The staff were helpful and friendly, providing good service. My partner is celiac and again the staff were knowledgeable and helpful and anxious to accommodate him. And of course, just as importantly - the food was truly excellent!
Enjoyable all round. Good Welcome and service and the food was excellent. The fillet steak was especially good - perfectly cooked - melt in the mouth.
Nice atmosphere and helpful staff. We had main meals off the a la carte...My fish stew was excellent, although a little salty, but my wife's duck was very dry. Ironically our previous experience with the 2/3 course set lunch was better...
Dissapointed when complimentary Kir Royals on my birthday were not complimentary,even though six people had 2 courses for lunch.Food good as always Doesn't state has to be a la carte on terms and conditions.
Love this restaurant: It always has such a great atmosphere, lovely service and fab food. Excellent value too. The crème caramel is just the best!
Friendly staff, good food and good service. Like that you don't have to ask for tap water, automatically delivered to your table. Nice atmosphere, buzzy but not too noisy
Good service and all of us liked the food that we'd ordered. It was all rather salty for my taste, and a couple of the starters were not available which was disappointing as I would have preferred one of them.
Excellent food, with friendly, efficient and unobtrusive service. Comfortable surroundings, busy with a nice buzz about the place but not cramped. We ate at 10pm and weren't made to feel hurried. We'll definitely be going back.
