My friend and I both thoroughly enjoyed our formule breakfast. I had the French one and the boudin noir was delicious. We both thought the scrambled eggs were particularly good. One teeny problem, the waiter did not tell like us he had brought jam and with everything on the table we didn't notice it until we had finished. My friend would very much have liked to put jam on her toast. Otherwise all good.

Good food and efficient service for a very busy branch of Cote. Well situated for those visiting the theatres as several are no more than five minutes walk away. Would always recommend that you book in advance

6.30pm reservation and restaurant was very busy with pre-theatre crowd. Staff were a little over run and inattentive. No spoons were provided for the side dishes we ordered. Tables were too close together. But the food was great.

I often book at this branch of Cote when going to theatre in the area. It is quite noisy, which is due to its being busy, no doubt. This time our member of staff was not very good and service was not up to the usual standard at this branch. Food was fine and in general good value for money.

Restaurant was busy and buzzy as always. I had the fish cake, which was under-seasoned for my liking and could have done with a bit more fish and bit less potato. There were also a few bones. Overall experience was good and value for money.

The tables, especially ones for 2 people are really squashed in into the restaurant, had a negative effect on my experience. Also, we felt the waitress was really rushed off her feet- maybe hire more wait staff?

Seated downstairs in low ceiling room directly under air con vent . System on full blowing cold air , asked to be moved told no other table was available although others were empty . Waitress offered to turn off air con which she did , this made situation more tolerable until other waiting staff turned system back on to full . This did overshadow the dining experience a great deal . Food was excellent however .

The food was delicious, well prepared and presented. Despite being full and extremely busy, the staff were very efficient and pleasant, ensuring that the order was taken and brought promptly. The restaurant was clean and the decor stylish and tasteful. The pre-theatre menu was diverse and very well priced. I would recommend this Cote most highly and would return again.

Staters were good - French onion soup was tasty, the stock being very good. Also, black pudding with poached egg, apple and salad went down well. Sadly, the mains did not match the quality of the starters. The fish pie had "yellow" cheese on top, the flavour of which totally overpowered the fish. The half chicken was extremely dry and needed the Provençal sauce which we had purchased. Overall experience, a "curate's egg" - good in parts.

Our first visit to a Cote Brasserie, and we were very pleasantly surprised. The menu choice was good, food was tasty, portions just right and the service was excellent. On top of everything, the value for money is very good, especially if you eat off the pre-theatre menu. We will definitely be back!

Had the pre-theatre menu. Cod goujons - 5 small pieces of fish - more batter than anything. Smaller portion of chips than in the Cote I usually go to. Person who showed us to table not too pleased when we asked to sit somewhere else. Stayed where we were shown to, tables so close together it had to be moved to allow me to squeeze onto the banquet (I am not huge). Service of food was efficient and friendly.
