Excellent attentive service and very good food. Only slight downsides were 1. Having booked a table several days prior, our table was next to the waiters station which was disappointing and the general noise level was high.

We have visited Cote Exeter on a number of occasions and have invariably found the food to be of a high standard and good value for money. As on all previous occasions, the service this time was both friendly and efficient. As usual, the restaurant was very busy; a testimony to its fine reputation.

Sorry Cannot give you full marks as no one seemed to remember my birthday. My daughter had to ask for the complimentary Kira royals promised. Service was very slow to begin with. It was a long time before anyone came to take our order. Everything was fine from then on. Not up to your usual high standard. Food very good as always.

We went to Cote last Saturday early evening. The food was excellent & the staff very friendly & helpful. we sat upstairs which was nice as we overlooked the cathedral. The only negative was that it was very hot upstairs as the weather was very humid & no air up there.

Fantastic position overlooking cathedral. Food very good, freshly prepared. Staff a little aloof, could be friendlier. We enjoyed ourselves overall and it was a nice way to introduce my Irish relatives to Exeter.

As always good food and service, take a lot of beating and really good value for money. Only minor issue is the noise, like a lot of other eateries. Won't stop me eating there though.

A very pleasant meal in an elegant room overlooking Exeter Cathedral. Lovely though it is, hard flooring does not absorb sound well and perhaps makes it a difficult choice for people with impaired hearing. As ever the staff were friendly, courteous and absolutely professional. This wasn't my favourite menu but that's an entirely personal comment, and the food is consistently good value and rarely disappoints. This particular branch has an especially agreeable ambiance.
