This is a great French restaurant in Exeter. The service was first class. The waiter was very helpful to explain the menu. The fish stew was amazing. Don’t forget to book a reservation in advance as we went on a Monday night and the place was buzzing. Well done to the management and staff.

Food was absolutely delicious! I can’t think of anything that wasn’t amazing. Service was great and the view of the Cathedral is just an incredible backdrop too!

What a fantastic place for a lovely night out. We ordered the Côte du Boeuf as our main to share and it was cooked to perfection. It was accompanied by two portions of frites as well as two additional sides (we chose ratatouille and sauteed garlic greens). It was the perfectly amount of food to follow the charcuterie board as a starter and (most importantly) leave room for dessert.
For dessert we had the warm chocolate fondant - which oozed splendidly - and the salted caramel tarte - which was dense and delicious.
The service was impeccable with the staff having a fantastic balance of friendliness and professionalism - giving us time and space when needed or chatting about the menu/restaurant.
The atmosphere was calming and the lighting was intimate without being too dim.
We thoroughly enjoyed our night out and we will definitely return for our next special occasion night out!

The service was great and the food was really tasty but it is a bit too noisy upstairs. Happy to recommend & revisit.

Exeter Downtown near Exeter Cathedral. Restaurant called Côte Brasserie, french cruise with a fantastic view of the Cathedral. Definitely should bring a friend and enjoy dinner together.

Over the last 3 years we have eaten in a lot of restaurants in Exeter and this was far the best. Everything was 5 star food ,service,and atmosphere .just a shame my daughter has finished uni so I don't have an excuse to go back

We booked to have breakfast in the week, we were greeted to a lovely warm welcome by Nina and was able to sit down where we wanted. Unfortunately upstairs wasn’t open but we sat down near the wall on a lovely table.
Angel was our server who was great and gave us everything we needed.
We ended up choosing to have the Eggs Royale and a Pain au chocolat which were both great and very tasty. And were a perfect to start the day.
We were made aware that they could only expect card payments when we sat down which okay and no bother at all.
Service charge is added automatically and we were more than happy to pay this!

We always recommend Cote as it is the best restaurant in Exeter. The Ivy has moved a few doors down but the food and service is not a patch on Cote
Ben Mac
Great, service was good and the food was great. Location of the restaurant has a great view of the cathedral.
Liz Shinn
Great location and relaxed atmosphere.
Helpful staff (including the chef who was kind enough to substitute an ingredient I am allergic to so I could have my chosen dish). Food was delicious, service good and the lunch menu was great value for money. Definitely would recommend.

I’d booked a table the day before but there was no sign of a reservation made, they just pointed to the nearest available table. Food was a bit bland, the croissant was hard and no attempt has been made to warm it through, the fruit pot was tiny and there was barely anything in it, not worth the price and I was left hungry after my “meal”.
The server also added on the 12.5% service charge without asking us, only for us to realise after we’d left.
Overall, not that impressed and don’t think I’ll return.

I’ve eaten at several locations however this one is great. A fantastic view of the cathedral (shame about the Clarence building works) and I was lucky to get a window seat. The manager Niall was fantastic and welcoming and Natalia looked after me through the evening. Excellent service and as usual great food - the duck was amazing, so tender. The complimentary Kir Royale was well received by me. Definitely return on my next visit.

I found it to be a very busy venue for lunch, however the staff did their best to serve within a reasonable time. The food was outstanding and the staff were gracious. Great experience
Amanda Schmid
Was taken here for my birthday and it was excellent, staff were friendly attentive, but didn't hover over us. The food was outstanding, prices are reasonable and we never felt rushed to finish. We will definitely be going back. Reservations are best as they get quite busy understandably .
