Just one meal so far in this French place. The Half Chargrilled Breton Chicken was aromatic and succulent, served with fries and garlic butter. I washed down my meal with a glass of Pelforth Blonde and man I had a good night's sleep!

I have only had breakfast here and it was good. They have a good buttery and flaky croissant for breakfast. The staff is friendly and in the mornings the restaurant is quiet and ideal to read a book while having breakfast.
Peter Morrell and his wife enjoy a relaxed meal after a memorable church service at St Paul’s cathedral. My wife and I were lucky enough to join a party of people who attended the annual Advent Procession at St Paul’s cathedral recently. We had tickets to sit in the Quire immediately next to the High Altar. The hour long service displayed the full power of the Anglican faith. The service started at the west end of the church before proceeding down the Nave to the High Altar. The readings, blessings, prayers and singing were all deeply moving with some portions conducted in semi-darkness but the latter part of the ceremony was bathed in light and the air filled with billowing clouds of incense.
Went here with my husband and two friends for dinner. They have a set menu which is pretty good value. Nearly everything tasted great, but the service was slow even though the place wasn't full and they nearly gave us wrong orders.
Came here for lunch and we all ordered from the Plat Rapides.
I had the Cod Goujons while the others had Steak a frites.
Service was quick and efficient. There were 6-7 Goujons which were made with good quality Cod. I liked the Tartare Sauce but wouldn't have minded a few more Frites.
The guys having Steak said it was good though because it is thin you need to eat it quickly otherwise it will get cold.

We all love a bargain, don’t we? Côte is no exception, it does bargain deals, and one is the minute steak and frites for under £10. My colleague and I spent our last Christmas lunch at the St Pauls branch.
Seated cosy upstairs, we both decided on the steak frites. Sharing a plate of olives and bread and butter.
Like a piece of a continent, large and beaten as flat as an pancake with a plonk of garlic slowly melting on the rustic colour steak. It had a slight chewiness to it, flavoursome without being too dry.
The frites was a dream, thinly cut sticks with plenty of salt.
If you are after a simple meal that’s cheap, then I suggest Côte, service was good and food came promptly.
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.
I have a great experience. The foods and drinks are very good. Nailia is the one who take care of us. She is very nice, professional and recommended us the excellence dishes and drinks.

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.

Very fixed french style restaurant in UK.
Simple, cheap but good taste and packed on Lunch 1pm~ Special 2 or 3 course meal !
After 1pm so crowdy
P.s. no steak brites if you dont like lean. It needs more tenderlozed as Steak Brites needs to be tenderized.
Grilled sea bass is so good and fresh taste !
So sweet ketchup 😋 😍
Great food, happily located near St. Paul's Cathedral, we took a lovely stew with prawns and fish, leek and baguette on the side. Great dish for a cold weather

Despite its central location and view of St Paul's it's not dominated by tourists. Very good staff, we took a recommendation for dessert. The weather was just right for sitting outdoors and enjoying the sunset illuminating the cathedral, but we chose to go there for reliable French classics and were not disappointed.
Always a great welcome when we come (we stay at the hotel above it). Lovely food and good knowledge about allergies and dietary requirements. Does a fine breakfast 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.
I’ve stayed locally all week and eaten here every day. The staff work so hard (15 hrs a day). The place is so popular and always full. I cannot fault a single thing about the food or wine I’ve had.
Special mention to Nailia she is ALWAYS smiling and takes the time to chat to you even though she is so busy.

Was seated downstairs, bit quiet at lunch time but was still nice. The food was really good, would recommend the sirloin steak over the minute steal as a massive difference in quality. The plum dessert was really nice and more like a pie. Staff were prompt and friendly
I loved the outside setting it looked beautiful in the night! I cant complete my rating until ive been inside! I just missed the entry for this!
I had an amazing culinary experience at Côte. It was my first proper French dining and I was not disappointed.
The rosé was well chilled and refreshing, perfect for the summer afternoon. The sharing starter and main were perfect. Very delicious and not heavy.
The dessert! Oh the dessert! 😋 Best creme brulee I've had! My friend's tarte au citron was yum too.
The service was nice, very warm and friendly. They made us feel very welcome. I'll definitely be going back! 5 stars all round!!!
The food (Rib Eye Steak) was perfectly served as I wanted it (Rare blue) fresh tomato sallad and good French fries, bearnaisesauce was really good!
So I had the creamy wild mushroom soup and 8oz upgrade fillet steak and it was amazing!! The soup was piping hot, the crispy bread was beautiful and the steak, cooked medium may as well have been a block of butter!! The staff are super friendly and very attentive. Just a pleasure all round.
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.
Enjoyed a really tastey and well priced working lunch from Cote's lunchtime menu. Pleasant and friendly service. Would certainly recommend.
Good, friendly service, set meal tasty, just enough for a lunch. Would have been happier if the waitress had advised the soda in my spritzer was a branded bottle, not "on tap" ax I expected, made it an expensive drink!
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.
Pork belly - great, potatoes gratin- not so god, tea - great, dessert-could be better.service a bit strange though, not very welcoming attitude. Came here by chance in the way to the pub - and decided to eat something other than burger or Fish and chips ) for a French place - not exceptional, but for a not very expensive French place in London -good choice I think 💭
