Delicious brunch, as always in calm surroundings Great value for money too Thoroughly recommend
We had a family get together for six people. It was great fun and the service was very good. Some us had the March specials. I had the warm Tiger Prawns and the Lamb which was very good.
Really enjoy the meal with my family!! Thank you so much for food and excellent service from Ciprian!!! Please pass my regards to him!!!! Atmosphere and food were amazing too!!
Slow service and waiter slightly rude, unintentionally but okay thank you
My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our meal, and of course we will be back. We have yet to be disappointed in Cote and consider it ti outstanding value for money. This is not always easy to find.
Came for breakfast had a lovely meal food was delicious service was great, atmosphere also pleasant safe so helpful overall perfect
Lovely evening in this lively restaurant. The steak frites were perfect but some of my cod goujons were very overcooked sadly...this was dealt with very well by the charming waitress. Always a delight to come here, service always second to none.
Lovely welcome from Dorking restaurant , swift , friendly service and a breakfast and coffee that really “hit the spot”! Very good value for money.
Place is perfect me and my girlfriend go every time we have free, love it won’t stop coming
Very good service and consistently well prepared dishes with fresh produce and well sourced quality fish and meat.
Excellent lunch, beautiful food, great service.. Always a pleasure to eat at Cöte
As always we had an amazing meal at cote dorking, my favourite restaurant. Food, service and atmosphere all perfect. But what always makes our meal special is seeing chiprian.,, he is the best member of staff you could wish for! Always welcoming, happy friendly and all round amazing!
Delicious food and pleasant staff as always. Unusually we had to wait rather a long time for our dessert and wonder if it had been forgotten.
Lovely restaurant with good food and drink. The service was excellent and the whole experience was real value. I’m sure we will be going back again.
Warm welcome on arrival, great atmosphere, friendly and helpful staff, great food! Everyones meal arrives at the same time and it is fantastic. Cote is my favourite restaurant.
A superb visit as always. We dine at Cote Dorking regularly and the food is always excellent and the staff very friendly and helpful. Best restaurant I know for an unfailingly outstanding experience.
First time at Cote Dorking, but I am pleased to say that the quality of service, food and value for money was up to the brand exceptional standards.
Lovely, tasty fresh food, with good service ! Just what we needed on a busy day.
The worst possible service I have ever had. Was not attentive on departure took 20 mins to get my bill we where sat at the table with nothing on the table so it was obvious we wanted our bill tried to attract attention of server got nothing in the end had to tell her off which came as some surprises to her. Not happy we have dined here many times this will be our last appalling attitude not apologetic at all and just argued with me. Restaurant to noisy
We were greeted by the manager and he was very obliging and welcoming. We were entertaining guest from France and found the waitress to be very helpful witty and seemed to know what we wanted straight away, she was brilliant, she made our evening a very fun one.

We celebrated our 11th wedding anniversary here, had a fabulous evening
Booked a table for mothers day for 6 of us. Asked for a table near toilets for disabled member of party and this request was accomadated. Lovely setting and all staff so very friendly. Nothing was to much trouble and even a slight mishap with our order was corrected quickly and efficiently and this was on a considerably busy day. None of our party had eaten a meal in Cote before but will happily eat here again and recommend to others. Good quality food and at a good price. Thank you. I very much look forward to dining here again soon.
Overall meal and service was good. However; We had a voucher and showed this to the manager who said the voucher was only for Mon - Fri. The vouchers didn't say this anywhere. He then said we could use it. ( not part of it, just we could use it) When we came to pay apparently we couldn't use the voucher. We had booked this Cote becasue of the voucher. So clearly let down by a promotion that was poorly worded.
Excellent and fast service. All four of us thoroughly enjoyed our all day breakfast. Good value too !
A lovely welcome, then offered the whole restaurant for seating - we had arrived early. Prompt, polite service followed by excellent food from the a la carte range. A successful evening.
Seven of us came to Cote yesterday evening to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary. We have had dinner in Cote probably four or five times and have also had lunch here. We decided to come to your restaurant on past experiences - and I now wish we had not chosen your restaurant in Dorking. The restaurant wasn't particularly busy when we arrived at 20:00. It took a while for the waitress to take our starter order - 2 x Olives and 3 x Bread Basket to eat with our starters. The starters did not come out at the same time and four of our party were waiting a good 5 minutes before the remaining starters were served up - so hot food cooled down significantly during the wait. After finishing our starters, we waited quite a while for the table to be cleared, and we waited ages to be served our main courses. With regard to my dish, the vegetables under the lamb were, at best, tepid with the lamb placed on top at a much higher temperature. My brother left most of his crepe - he didn't want to make a fuss at the time, neither did I because this was supposed to be an evening where we all enjoying ourselves. No-one wanted to spoil the evening but on leaving the restaurant, we all agreed it was sadly lacking, from the non-attentive service to the quality of the food. I know that the service charge is discretionary and I could have asked for it to be removed but £37.10 is a lot of money to pay out for this woeful dining 'experience'. Sadly, I won't be venturing to Cote in Dorking any time soon and I certainly won't be recommending to family and friends. For our next big celebratory meal we may very well try out one of the independents, Sorrel or Salt Pig. I really do feel I've been mugged being presented with a food bill for £335! Cote Dorking - you need to up your game.
Really nice meal, my partner had the duck and it wasnt very good but they happily swapped it for a replacement. The monkfish i had didnt agree with me been on the toilet since i got home and was in the restaurant on it for half an hour. Overrall it was really pleasant though cant fault anything
A great way to start the day! A relaxing delicious breakfast with friendly staff and good service . This is our favourite restaurant in the Dorking area.
Really enjoyed our breakfast to celebrate my daughters 18th birthday with family and friends- a great venue for groups of 25-35. We had to pre-order the food and drink. Would recommend asking for coffee/tea to be served at the end.
All Cote restaurants are consistently good but Dorking has the edge for location , food and service . Inside or outside on a warm day it’s a great place to eat.
Good food amazing coffee and great atmosphere with friends, very well looked after a big thank you Cote Dorking, will be booking again very soon.
Great food and lovely staff. Always welcoming and the food is served quickly and is always consistent. They make a real effort to give personal service to each table
Really friendly service, efficient and professional. Good food cooked well.
Excellent service! Friendly waiter, our child mean came out in under 10 mins. The food is always spot on! Thank you cote again. Recommend the Breton cider.
Excellent- delicious food and wine, catered really well for the children including gluten free options for our coeliac daughter. Lovely friendly helpful staff every time we visit Dorking. We will be back! If you could do kids size desserts that would be perfect!
Everything was great but I don’t like the automatic 12.5 % added on even for a table of just two people. It should be up to us to decide how much we want to tip as in most other restaurants
The Great food, great price and brilliant service. Food was excellent and the choice was really good, particularly the variety of lunch time options available.
As always a lovely meal and good service.we arrived late after a concert at Dorking Halls. No problem being served and no sense we were being rushed. Food was lovely as always.
It was our wedding anniversary and the complimentary Kir Royals was a lovely touch.Thankyou. Great food and great value.
Always a nice atmosphere, attentive staff and good food. Menu is a little limited but what is served is always well cooked, fresh and tasty. Good idea to book online as they are always busy.
Lovely enjoyable fresh food. Great strong coffee, a mint with the coffee would be been a bonus. If you have hearing aids it is better to sit in the first part of the restaurant close to the bar. Always tricky with hearing aids as noise bounces around hard flat walls.
Excellent service from managing staff and waitress, thank you. Small hiccup with two options of lamb which was rectified and the correct one brought after it was identified as the wrong one. Compensated with a g and t whilst waiting. Good food. Sent from my iPhone
Great lunch today ,it was my Birthday (under 21) I wish , looked after us very well , ballon and cake great food , well done David and Team .
Breton fish stew was tasty and wholesome and lamb chops were superb, probably the tastiest we've had. Service good and friendly. As usual a pleasant evening.
Not as good as usual. Came for brunch as we fairly regularly do. Plates looked quite messy...bit stingy with the bacon....mushrooms weren't hot. Waitress great but more senior staff didn't seem to be providing much back up, and seemed cross (with us) when we pointed out that our hot drinks, which we'd been waiting for for some time, had been sitting on the side by the coffee machine right behind the manager, even when we'd asked for them. We gathered that they'd run out of milk - the cause of the original delay. How is that possible at 12noon on a Saturday?? A neighbouring table never got their hot drinks at all and when they asked for the price to be taken off the bill were told it was cheaper even without the drinks to pay the Breakfast deal price. They tried to explain that they wanted money off that because they'd been waiting so long, and were told they'd still be charged the full breakfast price. So they decided to wait even longer for drinks as it was clear no-one was going to take any money off. All in all, quite a disappointment. Usually much more efficient and gracious. To reiterate, our waitress was doing her best - looked to us as if she was the only one who was engaging with service at all.
Booked for 13 people and had to group book. I supplied a full order pre visit , on the night the food was very nice and enjoyed by all. We arrived at 8.30 and did not get any food until at least 9.30 due to issues unexplained. We did get some free garlic bread and the server was fine but it did slightly spoil the evening. We did spend a lot of money,
EXCELLENT IN EVERY ASPECT,GOOD FOOD,EXCELLENT AND CURTEOUS SERVICE NICE SURROUNDINGS . THE STAFF ARE VERY ATTENTIVE AND KEEN TO ENSURE YOU ENJOY EVERY MINUTE OF YOUR VISIT. WOULD THOROUGHLY RECOMMEND THIS RESTAURANT TO OTHERS.
All was good - portion size excellent. 2 points: *the fennel was a bit hard and although parts were tender most of it could have been cooked a bit longer too. * We ordered sweet courses and the coffee came before the sweet. I would hope that it would come after. Also the double espresso was not particularly hot.
