    We went on a Saturday evening so it was busy, but didn’t expect it to be as noisy. Many birthday tables making a racket. We had some issues with our orders (cold food and meat on a veggie order) but the front of house staff corrected them instantly and credits were applied to our bill, so no complaints really. Food was very tasty and the wine selection decent also. I recommend Cote for the food and service but would probably steer clear of Saturday night purely because of the large parties - unless you’re in one - then you’ll have a blast!

    Very nice staff, service and tasty food. However we had to wait 15 min for our table which was not ready at the time we had booked (18:15). Disappointing because my mum is disabled and we had to stand at the door - it would have been nice to offer her a seat whilst waiting!

    The fact that cash is not accepted needs to be made more clear. It is not mentioned on Cote's website and only appears in small print on the booking confirmation. Three of our party of 6 needed to pay in cash and this caused delay in paying.

    Thanks for your review. So sorry for the inconvenience that us only accepting card payments caused. We hugely value all the feedback we receive and so we’ll continually review our policy and use your comments constructively - we hope to see you back again soon.

    The food was good, but for the second time in the last 3 months the service was poor. We were left waiting for 10 minutes to be seen at the door, it took ages for the wine to come, we had to ask twice for the coffees etc. Some of the staff were very nice and apologetic, but some were clearly struggling.

    Nice looking restaurant, food was pretty good and general service was ok. The head waiter was lovely and very professional although several of the younger staff members felt a little clueless One of the guys managed to spill a bottle of water everywhere and gave me a very hot plate and warned only after I’d touched it and burnt my finger… maybe it wasn’t his day 🤷🏼‍♂️ There is a funny smell in the restaurant, my partner thought it smelt like a toilet… not so funny she’s been sat on the loo since she’s got home from the restaurant, maybe it was something she ate 🤷🏼‍♂️
