"I always like going to the mixed reviews places to see whether the reviews are fair. Lovely building. Made booking easy, and were accommodating when we called ahead to sat we were late. Kind welcoming reception. We were asked for drinks early on. There is a delay for food but it was not unreasonable, it was a busy time and it was nearly full. Lovely choices on the menu, good variety. Good choices for kids, although it didn’t stipulate that the kids mash had spring onions and my daughter (as I expect many kids would) wanted plain mash. Or at least stipulate on the menu and we could choose to avoid. Food was nice enough, but processed. It arrived a good temperature and tasted nice enough. The service was the best part of our experience and is why we gave the rating we did. Very friendly attentive young lady, who was very polite and regularly asking if we needed things. Spot on."

I made a second visit with a 97-year-old individual who has mobility issues. The staff recognized this and arranged a spacious table for us. The Sunday roast was excellent, and there was a generous portion of food served, with gravy on the side. Everything was of high quality. The service was friendly and attentive. I will definitely be coming back again. View menu

Hello! We don't often write reviews, but we felt it was important to give credit where it's due. Yanis, our Greek waiter, was truly a gentleman and an exceptional host. He made our dining experience special, and his warm personality kept the kids laughing. He's not just a nice guy; he's also fantastic at his job, bringing a wonderful energy to the table. Well done, Yanis! Keep up the great work. Your new friends, Steve and Steve Coy.

"I booked originally for 6pm and had to change to 6:30pm due to traffic. I hadn’t confirmed The new booking so the host could not find a booking for us. It was my father’s birthday and I was really worried I had messed it up. The host, was fine and was still able to get us seated, we were very pleased with that. We were given a choice of tables, and as a larger guest, I was able to be seated comfortably. We’re we’re served by Tom. S ,for the evening. OMG! What a charming and delightful waiter. He was attentive, had great banter and held a wonderful conversation, wished my father a happy birthday, and tended to my wine being filled up all evening. He made us feel wonderful, and made me feel like a million dollars. The food was absolutely superb, French onion soup was perfectly seasoned, the croutons were Devine along with a salty cheese. Loaded with sweet onions: The liver parfait my husband had was delicious he said. My dad and husband had the beef bourguignon, and I had the chicken, gratin with a side of dauphinois potatoes… Again… absolutely perfect. The service here was top notch, and Tom.S made our first experience at Côte the best. He is a first class waiter, that I would compare to the the likes of The Ritz and The Savoy. Fantastic personality, and very well groomed and presented. What a fabulous and marvellous team member you have there. Cherish that! We will definitely return, and recommend this restaurant highly. 5 Service from Tom.S and the chef."
