"We revisited tonight as had a lovely meal last week!! It was like walking into a completely different pub. Service was beyond slow, and when provided with menus advised that they were sorry, but, there was a lack of items!! We ordered drinks first, 20mins and watched them sat on bar for 10 of those, in the end had to ask the young girl who was stood doing nothin, could we perhaps have them to drink, rather than just look at them. We then asked if we could order and she advised she wasn't doing the ordering so had to wait for the young man to arrive. When he did we checked about the lobster as was having our last meal of our holidays and he had previously advised what wasn't in the menu. Advised yes, they had this 20mins after ordering was advised that actually, they didn't have it and something similar they could offer was a monkfish...... (no words to that really). Left us with the menu again and just kept walking past us despite trying to get his attention so we could reorder the missing lobster meal. He just kept sodding about on his iPad thingy and ticking of the tables. During this time also, a gentlemen walked up to the bar to say he was extremely concerned about his groups meal as it was now over an hour since they ordered and no starters had even been served. He proceeded to cancel his starters as they were fed up with the ridiculous delay and lack of any service. With that, we echoed his sentiments and advised we were actually leaving as not prepared hand over our well earned money to an establishment who had got it completely wrong tonight and they weren't even busy. In fact I'd say they weren't even a quarter full. Menu is very expensive and although the food we ate last week was good, it wasn't fantastic. But the 3 ladies who served us were really lovely which was why we had decided to revisit tonight on our last night. Big mistake on our part and extremely disappointing for us as ruined our last evening."

"Had a delicious dinner with fabulous friends in the Hyndland Fox no doubt made all the more rosy by bottles and bottles of spot on house red.... late last year and have since been back for a brilliant brunch I 'd promise 'no more cheesy alliterations ', but that would be a lie . It 's such a lovely, bright space and on both occasions we found the staff to be absolute dolls. We dined on the Mezzanine both times... the overhead beams and charming interiors really are a triumph. What I 'm most proud of is coercing my brunch muching companions into taking photos of each of their dishes, to be put away for a momentous occasion... such as the drafting of this review. While they each hated me at the time, I hope you dear reader will love me for it. I had the Salt Beef Hash £6.95 which from the moment the words left my lips to place the order... I was having taste bud driven heart palpitations over. It was super tasty but the portion was quite small. And I honestly don 't think that was just my big bum talking I hope!? . I felt like my meal was over in fewer forkfuls while everyone else was eating on in blissful brunchy heaven. My pals had the Hot Smoked Salmon £7.95 and the Smoked Black Forest Ham £7.45 and my wonderful wife had the Cooked Brekky £8.95 . While part of me was delighted to see her savouring every mouthful, the less lovely and therefore much larger part of me secretly hoped she 'd offer to trade... She didn 't. All in all, love the Fox and we will be back! Just for my regular puppy loving intel unfortunately the venue does not accept dogs... only... err... foxes."

"We arrived for our 12.30 booking at 12.00, this was obviously frowned upon, we asked if we could stay and wait which they unhappily agreed. We were taken to our table at 12.30, a few minutes later we were given the drinks menu, we asked if there was a different menu for the two course meal deal, they said “no not really just order off the main menu” and they handed over the food menus. We received our drinks and announced that we we’re ready to place our order. 3 x fish and chips and 1 x burger and chips, we thought they had gone fishing as this took so long to get to the table. It arrived….. the fish was delicious, very white and flaky, the chips were bad, under cooked and as for the mushy peas, I have never had garden peas mashed before, disgusting. We ordered desserts which eventually arrived but without cutlery. We asked for some cutlery and again waited 7 minutes for a spoon to arrive. We asked again for the bill, it didn’t arrive, we then asked another two members of staff for the bill, when we received the bill we had been charged full price for the meal deals, we challenged this and they said at the point of actually giving our food choices we should have said two of the orders were meal deals. We refused to pay the service charge as we have never received such bad service, in the mean time throughout our lunch time experience staff were continuously moving tables and chairs all around us. Needless to say we will never return to this chain of restaurant again."

"What a delight! First time to this branch. I travel a lot and often have to dine solo which I don't mind. Some restaurants single you out but Côte Brasserie are very welcoming to all guests. Despite how busy they were on a Saturday evening, I was warmly greeted upon arriving, seated at a nice table and had excellent service throughout. Staff were attentive, yet left guests to dine in peace and enjoy their meal. I am a big fan of customer service. I have just come back from Japan where service is outstanding. I always find in the UK, we are one of the worse for service. However, Côte Brasserie is starting to make me have faith again. Well done! Great menu of French classics but there are other options too including steaks and salads. Hearty but good food. Calories and nutritional information are displayed on the menu which is helpful. I had the vegan Côte burger which came with frites. Freshly made, well presented and delicious. Messy to eat but so good. My Saturday treat! I actually felt shy when I fully cleaned up my plate but I was hungry and was looking forward to a burger. It delivered. I had a still water to drink so I was a bit healthy! Lovely branch with mainly indoor seating, plus a few tables outside. Lovely ambience and nice views too. They are busy given location so book a table. A lot of people were turned away or had to come back. Clean. Dessert looked good but I was stuffed. What Côte have also done well is not put up prices too much, especially in comparison to competitors. Very reasonably priced. Highly recommend."
