Cote Brasserie Bank

Perfect location while touring. Popped off the tour bus for St. Paul’s and it is right there. Checked reviews and grabbed a table outside. Ordered chicken liver starter which came in a cute jar, wonderful jam and perfectly toasted points. Scraped the jar clean. We ordered from their very reasonably priced three course prefix: carrot and roasted squash soup, sea bass and plum clafoutis. See menu choices in the pics. Everything was very good. Service was good as well.

We had a 70th birthday lunch for 7 people at Cote yesterday and were very well looked after throughout by everyone from front of house to waiting staff, who were all friendly and helpful, arranging a good table and providing a festive, decorated dessert for the birthday boy. Service was attentive and speedy even though they were busy, and we all enjoyed the food. The best Cote I've been to.

Business dinner after a meeting nearby. Staff managed to look after a group of 20 without any issues. Those of us who had never been to a Cote before for reasonably impressed, however some longstanding visitors commented on how standards had slipped over the years. Prix Fixe menu was good value but vegan/vegetarian options VERY limited, having only one V option in starters and mains, BOTH being roasted butternut squash.

I went for a work lunch and the place was perfect. It had good food and arrived on time and we were able to finish up and leave in an hour. The have set menus (2 or 3 course) for lunch which gives you control over the spend. Location wise very convenient and easy to locate. I'll definitely visit 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.
