Visit here regularly and always find speedy service and great value for a pre-theatre meal. Lovely last night as warm enough to have all the windows open and we were lucky enough to be by them.

Food and service were excellent as always at a Cote Brasserie. My only negative comment would be that tables at this particular venue seem very close together and the noise level very high. However my guest and I thoroughly enjoyed our pre-theatre lunch, despite having to almost shout at each other!

My friends and I really enjoyed the excellent value pre-theatre 3 course menu. The food was as always delicious (especially the sea bream with ratatouille which was especially tasty). The welcome and the friendly service also made us feel like valued guests. We'll be back again soon.

Food was cold and there was a hair in my partners starter. I told them waiting staff and they didn't seem apologetic. We had the set menu and I wouldn't recommend the chicken main or the peach crumble dessert

Food was fine (although wrong main course was served to my companion) but dining on their pre-theatre menu @6pm I had to bolt my main course. (a salad) as service was so slow. I was still chewing as we ran out of the door. Unimpressed.

Friendly and attentive service. Went for a pre-theatre dinner and were served promptly and efficiently. We ordered a la carte and the dishes were as described and good value. The portions were just right. There was a good vegetarian menu for the non meat-eater among us. Would recommend this for pre-theatre visits.

On the hottest day of the year, my mother and I enjoyed the two course pre-theatre lunch. It was cool in the restaurant and very busy! However service was very good and friendly. The noise level was pretty high due to it being so busy, but that only goes to show just how popular this particular branch of Cote is! Cote is great value for money and the food has never let me down and I have been to several Cote restaurants, including one in Salisbury. They all have the same high standard of food and waiting staff. I am a big fan.

The food at Cote is always good value, and there are several delicious dishes on the Set Menu. However, today we were disappointed as the service was very slow and not very competent. One of our starters was not as ordered, and we heard the same thing happening at other tables.

Cote continues to do 'what it says on the tin'. Good simple food well prepared and served by friendly and involved staff. We were particularly impressed by the attitude and commitment of the staff; the place was packed for pre-theatre dinners yet everything happened in a timely and calm process. Well done!

I have visited this restaurant before. Never disappointed by food or staff. On this occasion, the staff member (unfortunately, I cannot recall her name: blonde, short hair tied back) was a delight. I was dining with someone whom I had not seen for some time: she, with good humour, accepted our slight delay in ordering initially; totally charming throughout.

Efficient and friendly service. Gratuity is automatically added. The food is pretty good, I had the Steak Frites which was cooked pink as labelled. Fries were ok. My mum had the sea bream with ratatouille and thought it was delicious. One point that bothered me is that the tables are too crowded together. They've packed them in like sardines. Not a great atmosphere. But perfectly good place to get pre-theatre dinner - affordable, efficient and nice food.

We were. greated with a complimentary glass of Ker Royal. Very welcome on the hottest day for many years. We choose to have the pre theater menu which is excellent value and very good. The staff were very attentive and friendly. Will definitely be back to Cote again.
