Outstanding service and very happy and polite waitresses and waiters, very lovely night for my mums birthday a night to remember, and they also brought out a cake we bought with candles on which made my mum really happy and excited for her big day, and there was no rushing around it was just a lovely calm and really too quality place to eat out

In answer to your survey,we had a really dissapointing lunch as a result of a particular waiter and the food being cold!. However i would also like to point out that your manageress could not have been more apologetic or helpful which was an absolute plus.i feel this was just one of those unfortunate experiences and was dealt with superbly.The manageress was outstanding.

Great food and excellent service. Plenty of space between tables so you didn't feel you were on top of the next table. Staff were attentive and there was not a long wait between courses.

Good service and lovely food. Will definitely be returning. Only criticism would be the dessert menu was lacking, in fact we actually decided to have a dessert elsewhere. But the starters and mains were brilliant.

Excellent food and service. The fillet steak is to die for. My coke was instantly replaced when I knocked it over and the table cleared instantly. Really good value and good ambiance.

Our waiter was not the best I've encountered as a regular customer at Cote - he placed glasses, wine and cutlery in completely the wrong areas on the table for the three of us, even though we made a point of moving items around. He gave the impression of not wanting to be there at all Food however as always was very good.

Overall, very good value when choosing from the set menus, good quality of food and a very pleasant atmosphere. Couple of things to focus on- it was busy for. Tuesday night and so staff were stretched and an error on the bill...otherwise, very happy to return.

We all really enjoyed our meal last night. We each chose a different main course and the food was well prepared and presented. we have already decided what we will have next time we eat here. There is enough space to have our own conversation without hearing the next table's. The staff were busy but very efficient (good training).

Always have a good meal here with attentive service. If I was to offer one criticism it is that the wine list is a little restricted...but hey, that's being pernickety!

We are regular visitors to cote brasserie & this is the worst experience we have had. Service extremely slow, were not asked if wanted drinks, after ordering wine had to remind them to deliver to table. Food not up to usual standards

We met with friends for lunch. The atmosphere was perfect for real catch up conversations with attentive but not intrusive service and the 'background music' was not a pain; The menu offer was varied and with items to convince all to indulge; and the food was good and carefully prepared and presented. Good Staff with sensitive judgement and adaptability this made the whole event a pleasure with a reasonable price tag. Thank you !
