Côte Sevenoaks

we had a thoroughly delicious meal, attentive waiters good ambiance - would recommend this very highly. food portions very pleasant, flavours excellent. delighted with birthday celebrations provided

Prompt attention upon arrival, a particularly flavoursome starter in the mousse au canard, excellent vegetables with the grilled chicken and the usual high standard of service.

Needed to meet friends from the north at a reliable and hospitable place and immediately thought of Cote - and Seveoaks was ½ way between us. Always a good place to eat and reliably hospitable.

Always a pleasure with cheerful service and on this occasion with the kids, menu to keep them very happy too. We had the early evening menu and made a note to check beforehand for next visit as things change a lot month to month.

We arrived before 7pm and had the fixed price menu. I had calamari, sea bass with flageolet and a side of fries, and creme caramel and my fried had duck liver pate, steak frites and berries with white chocolate sauce. We had a 125ml house white and 175ml of rose and a large bottle of Perrier. It was all delicious, and good service. Monday night is quieter, which I prefer.

Enjoyed our visit. Waiter was fairly attentive but seemed to have a lot of tables to look after so rather rushed. Good main course. We shared two desserts, the Creme Brûlée was delicious but the day's special, pavlova, was rather disappointing as basically some fruit with a circle of meringue on top, not really my idea of a pavlova. A good visit to Cote but not up to its usual standards.

Simple to book. Very spacious and tables not crammed close together. An excellent set menu with plenty of choice and food quality excellent...Very good value.

Friendly service and good food. Had vouchers for complimentary kir totals as we were going to the theatre. Plus we found items on the specials menu so the food was good value

One of the finest restaurants in Sevenoaks! Beautiful food in charming surroundings served by highly efficient and friendly staff! Can't wait to visit you again! Thank you

My wife and I had booked a table for 8.15pm. Food ok, served by an efficient but charmless waitress, our evening (it is our wedding anniversary) was ruined by the restaurant "policy" of switching on all the bright white lights and switching off the background music at 10pm on the dot, then clattering around emptying bottle bins and taking out rubbish in black bin bags around us. The waitress stated that they were closing at 10pm (we had NOT been told this when we booked or when we arrived) and that it was time for us to leave. I reported my unhappiness to the branch manager who stated that this was policy, it was a bank holiday weekend, he had already worked 78 hours this week, and he and his staff wanted to go home. Oh, and they added a 12.5% "optional gratuity" to the bill. Another couple agreed with our complaint as they left. I have sympathy for hospitality staff who work long hours, but this should not be our problem - there is something wrong with the company culture if the staff can't wait to see the back of their paying customers and transmit this feeling directly to their customers. It was clear that, on the stroke of 10pm, we became extremely UNwelcome. To his credit, the branch manager asked for my contact details and said that he would contact me within a couple of days. However, the damage was done, our evening was utterly tainted, and I will never want to see the inside of a Cote Brasserie again.

Friendly atmosphere, helpful and attentive staff. The service is quick and the food is cooked well and presented in an attractive manner. Portion sizes are also good, not too much and just the right amount to satisfy.

We had very good service, which was prompt but without being pushy, good food with plenty of choice and not overpriced. What more could you ask for?
