We can thoroughly recommend their special "Sunday Sax" meal. It was a fantastic experience listening to the lady Saxaphone player put such feelings into the tunes she played. Also enjoyed a leisurely shared meat platter + veg. and bottle of wine. Couldn't fault their welcome and attention throughout the visit. An unforgettable experience.

Always my place of choice for date night or special occasions Went for a day time date with our 18 month old and we were well cared for. Our daughter really enjoyed her meal and our food was great too!

Amazing food, service and atmosphere. Got the special which was very nice but the serving was a bit small for the price. Nice selection of wine and beer and I noticed they had large round tables so we will be going back. Other dishes looked perfect so can’t wait to go back and try. The chocolate mousse was incredible and would highly recommend.

Painfully slow service, incredibly rude waiter and manager and a waitress who would flat ignore you trying to get attention. Food was way below par, ambience was frosty and almost hostile, terrible experience, wouldn't return.

Fantastic food. As a coeliac, it was nice to not have so many options but the waiting staff be so well educated (i.e. fries in different fryers and no cross-contamination) without having to check or throw a massive booklet for me to look through.

The food arrived very fast - my burger and fries were warm at best. Waiter took away and it came back with very hot fries and even colder burger!

Our visit the Cote took on the character of the Curate’s Egg, of the starters Fran’s Crab Maisonette she found to be of her taste, my Calamari was nicely cooked but the Provençal Mayonnaise did nothing to enhance the dish for me. For our main dishes Fran was delighted by her choice of the Breton Fish Stew, it was interesting and thoroughly to her taste. My selection of the Poulet Breton Gratin was not a good experience, partially due to the chicken being served on the bone, and I detest having to carve my meat before getting to eat it. Additionally my experiences of Gratins is they come with a topping of potatoes, or a covering of some sort, mine did not. Instead the skin had been roasted on to form a covering to the flesh, another pet hate of mine. The creamy sauce was very thin and did nothing to enhance the meal. Fran was happy, I very much less so and found the whole episode very Curates Egg. On the basis the Fish Stew was good and my dislike of the Gratin has to be partially down to my own foibles, I could be persuaded to visit Cote again but that would be sometime very much in the far distant future.

Manager / front-of-house guy was pretty unwelcoming. We were told we would have to leave promptly at a certain time even though the restaurant was half empty when we arrived and also when we left. Food: disappointing.

Our waitress was Rugile, who remembered us from our last visit and was very attentive without being in any way overbearing. The restaurant always has a really lovely buzz about it. The food is both exceptional and exceptional value. And even if we haven’t been there for awhile, the warmth of welcome is always generous. I also like the fact that you get to the time to enjoy your meal without being hurried. Also, the layout of the restaurant is such that you have space to enjoy your food without being crowded by other diners. We’ve been going to Cote for years And have never once been disappointed.

Visiting family in the area and we fancied taking them somewhere different. We live near Peterborough and rave about the Cotes restaurant, always excellent food and 1st class service, so how could we go wrong by going to another Cotes restaurant? Well, the service was awful and the wait time not the best. From finishing our starters we waited 45 minutes for our mains then had to get someone's attention for desserts. Not once were we advised of the delay, or an apology that they are busy but we'll get it to you soon...nothing! Or asked if everything was okay or if we wanted more drinks! We asked for table water with our first order and after the 3rd time of asking it arrived! Overall, great food but let down by the poor service. Maybe you should send your staff to the Peterborough Cotes and learn how it done!

Stopped for a quick bite. Food OK, nothing wrong with it, didn't exactly set your pukse racing but it's a chain. Friendly staff. Waiter couldn't be bothered. Did I enjoy the meal? Did I want another drink? Anything else I could get you? You know, the questions you used to get in the 90s were predictably absent. Paid the bill, left. Wallet lighter, belt under tension, satisfied? Meh

The staff were very accomodating, however if you dont have a morning delivery meaning you have no beef or chicken at all and you know this perhaps you should contact your booked customers rather than let them turn up and then say half your menu isnt available. Poor reflection on management.

There's not really anything I can fault with Cote. The food was outstanding, service was attentive without hounding us, the ambience was lovely and warm. Something outside of the regular compliments, is that it had a lot on the menu that enticed me. Sometimes you eat out and you think there's only 1/2 good options. However, here there was so many good options when selecting my food. Very impressed. On another note, I'd been here before with my grandad, who was a recovered alcoholic. At the time they only had 0.5% available, so the manager personally ran down to a nearby store and bought him some 0% to ensure he had no alcohol. That's the level of service and quality available.

Staff polite. Unfortunately one member of staff thought it was ok to blow her nose in the restaurant and not clean her hands. She started filling the salt pots, stopping to pick at her eye, after examining what was on her finger she went back to screwing the tops on the salt. Would have been disguised by this before covid.Then we had to eat while a wine delivery was brought past us and listen to the staff check it. See now why we were the only ones there

Vegetable soup was awful and not worth the money. Even though i complained it was still on the bill. Placing a 12 and a half gratuity charge is outrageous. People should be allowed to give their own tips and to be asked in the beginning. Will not be returning

Cote has been hugely successful in Chelmsford where other similar offerings have failed. This is due to a focus on core offerings - steak & chips, but doing this well! Very well. The menu both food & wine is much more varied but by doing the simple things well they have a core satisfied and regular clientele.
