Lovely food. Very helpful and attentive staff. We had two young children in our party and the waitress made a big fuss of them and their requirements. Which they loved.

Lovely restaurant, service a little slow. We ordered the duck described on the menu as served pink and the spinach and mushroom crepes. Both dishes were over cooked. We have had these dishes before in other Cote restaurants and they were cooked to perfection.

Everything excellent. This included food, service and atmosphere. Thank you all very much. We have just booked for a return visit shortly. The only comment - after asking for the bill, and receiving it at the table, could the waitress please return promptly to the table with the card machine to take payment. We were left waiting and looking for our waitress to return.

As always a good meal. It was my dads birthday he was 94. Staff were very kind and wished him a happy birthday, we had complimentary drinks, dad celebrated his birthday last year there with breakfast and wanted to go there again. Thank you My husband and I wouldn't have chosen to sit by the bar because it is noisier there but dad this year didn't want to do the two steps.

We have eaten in Cote at Welwyn Garden City many times as a couple, with friends and in large groups and can honestly say we have never chosen any dishes we did not enjoy - the menu is wide enough to give a large range of choice and the staff are always willing to adapt the dishes to suit dietary requirements - the staff are very well trained and efficient - all in all it is our favourite place in Welwyn Garden City to eat

Disappointed. Had to wait several minutes to be seated. Starter inedible. Charged for a dessert we hadn't had. Husband's birthday and dessert billed in error and came out as a "surprise" as we were ready to leave. Have always been impressed prior to this visit though so hope they sort it out!

Lovely restaurant with high quality food and fantastic, unobtrusive service. Ideal location with a view across the avenue of trees outside the Howard Centre and memorial fountain. Definitely recommended for a nice meal out after a movie or show in Welwyn Garden City.

Service as usual efficient and friendly. As it was my birthday we were treated to complimentary drinks. W e sat outside as we had brought our dog after a walk and our waiter provided water without any prompt. Côte is such a welcome addition to our town, it doesn't disappoint.

Clare B.9 years ago · 1 review

Lovely venue and location and friendly, attentive staff, however fell short on the quality of the food front - food was barely warm, over-priced and decidedly 'average' and we had to wait a very long time between mains and dessert, which then had to be rushed as we were going to a cinema concert - I would try other Cote Brasseries, but would not go back to the WGC one.

Just a few small points: on showing us to our table, the member of staff stopped to have a conversation with a customer who was about to leave. Only a small conversation but it did mean us standing there not knowing where to go until she'd finished her conversation. We had planned to have the breakfast which is served until 1 pm at weekends and received every menu except the breakfast one so when the waitress came to take our order, she had to fetch one. A table for two is really too small for breakfast as there is nowhere to put everything without juggling a few things. We did actually use the empty table next to us to put things we weren't using. Also coffee normally comes in a cafetière in Côte which is brilliant as it stays warm throughout breakfast but this time it arrived ready poured into a cup even though I had asked for a cafetière. By the time the food arrived, the coffee had cooled down a bit. On the plus side, the food was tasty and nicely presented, good toast, nice choice of jams and nice atmosphere.

My husband and I were celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary (part 1) i.e. A quiet and private lunch without the family, we are then going to have a large family celebration the next day. The lunch at cote was perfect, the ambiance of the surroundings and care and attention from staff and food was excellent.

Food of a very good standard as usual. Slight mix-up; included side salads didn't come. When we queried it they were brought to table but we were then charged for this separately and two of the mains were overcharged. Remedied quickly but you have to check your bill. Nice atmosphere.

Our food itself was very good. But we waited ages for our drinks which only came at the same time as the food. The drinks order was wrong and at end of it all we were charged for drinks that we never received. Not the best first visit.

Food and service was fine but would have been a lot better had the waitress taken down the orders correctly. Two Fillet steaks were ordered and two sirloin steaks turned up!
