Cote Brasserie - London Bridge- Hays Galleria in Southwark

Lovely food and drinks , good service and beautiful setting outside over looking the Thames . Great service and friendly staff.

Stopped in for a quick drink. Service, location and drinks were great. Staff was super friendly. Menu looked good, but we already had dinner reservations someplace else.

Perfect spot and break place by the river. Friendly service, good food. Quite long waiting time but still worth a visit. 100% recommended.

Excellent service and very good food. Scenic location on river. A few minutes' walk from London Bridge station. Feels quite posh compared to some other Côtes. Spacious. Good venue for a celebration with friends. Upstairs very nice. Ask for a table from which you can see the river. We were given a complimentary glass of bubbly on arrival, as we'd mentioned on our online booking that this was a birthday celebration. Highly recommend

Every once in a while, the moon and stars align for a family celebration and this evening at Cote was certainly one of them. I had booked an outdoor table for 7 earlier in the week but the table initially allocated was in a busy, windy corner so my daughter arriving early persuaded staff to move us to Table 312. This was ideal. Close to the river, in a quiet corner and with the added bonus of a superb waitress with Gosia. We started with several bottles of Roubertas de Provence rose (£31.20) plus the odd beer and a Picpoul (£30.70). Wine buckets on stands filled with ice ensured the rose was always cold and we were regularly provided with extra ice for the table. All the starters varying from traditional French Onion soup (£7.95) to the wonderful flavour of the Cheese Souffle (£9.95) and on to my Crab Maison (£10.50) – delicious mix of fresh crab, avocado, cucumber, capers and shallots blended with mayonnaise and served with toasted sourdough was very good. Our main courses again varied but included the marvellously voluptuous Breton Fish Stew (£18.95) and the superb Poulet Breton (£17.75) - my corn-fed roasted half chicken with Café de Paris butter and sauteed new potatoes (which had been recommended by a contact at a meeting in the City just a few hours beforehand) was sensational. Real buttery, moist and tender chicken well presented. Meanwhile. The outstanding Gosia kept an eye on our wine consumption, need for different glasses, extra ice, water jugs and proceeded to serve us quickly and efficiently. What a star turn she is for this Cote Brasserie. As we enjoyed the great food, the sun went down and we had that rare opportunity to see a red Harvest Moon appear over the river towards the east.as the skies darkened. The backdrop of the City lights was a magnificent sight with the Walkie Talkie, HMS Belfast dominating and several ferries moving swiftly along the river to add bustle and excitement. This was the most wonderful family celebration that we could have imagined – mainly thanks to Cote at Hay’s Galleria. Total cost £398.37 with t%he service charge remaining at 10% when many other restaurants are 12.5%, 13.5 or even 15%. Well done.

Serata tranquilla in coppia, passeggiata lungo il Tamigi, foto di London Bridge. Ci fermiamo attratti dall'esterno, attraverso le vetrate, dall'aspetto del locale all'interno. Elegante e raffinato, caldo e accogliente. Accolti con estrema cortesia ci sediamo al tavolo e studiamo il menù. Scegliamo quello che si rivelerà essere un meraviglioso brasato a cottura lenta immerso in una fantastica salsa con funghi e verdurine accompagnata da un purè praticamente perfetto. Servizio impeccabile, nota di merito per il personale sempre sinceramente sorridente. Ottima scelta di dessert e liquori. Prezzo giusto, forse un tantino basso in rapporto a quanto ricevuto. Molto consigliato

Booked our table upstairs in the gorgeous Cote restaurant at Hays Galleria at 1 30pm and after a superb meal and drinks left there at 5.30pm! Nothing was rushed, it was how we wanted it, 3 of us had the Prix Fix menu and 1 from thr A La Carte menu, we could not fault the whole experience and will certainly be returning, thank you x

Everything was great with our visit last night - we were a group of 4 old work mates catching up and we come here about once a quarter as its a convenient spot and reliably good. Staff were friendly and smiling and very relaxed when we said on several occasions last night that we weren't yet ready to order our food, as we were too busy chatting! They were prompt in taking our initial order and immediately offered the free drink deal available when purchasing a main course. As well as offering the raspberry mojito (which I had and thought was their best complementary drink yet!), the waitress advised that this could be upgraded to something else which two of our group opted for. When we finally got around to ordering, our food it came promptly. Food as always was tasty and nicely presented. I particularly enjoyed my crab starter, although it would have bee nice to have some butter on the toasted bread which came with it, but that's just me. My burger and fries were nicely cooked, not big but fine if you're having other courses. I then finished with a creme caramel. With a shared bottle of wine, 4 main courses, 3 of us having starters and 2 having 2 desserts and 2 having coffees, the 4 way split of the bill came to under £45pp. No complaints from any of our group. Too busy chatting to take any photos of the food! The ladies toilets upstairs were modern and clean. We will be back again before Christmas!

Back to the fabulous Cote on the river near London Bridge with five friends — two adults and three children. Hitesh, who last looked after me on Xmas Day, was a star and sorted out an outside table for us by the river. Negroni to start for me and prosecco, beer and fruit juice for the others. Two of the children ordered steak and a burger from the adult menu and wolfed them down. I had the burger, too. The white Muscadet was very drinkable. Great food, drinks and service. Thanks Hitesh. There’s a 10% optional service charge on the bill, which is shared among the staff

After a long day of shopping and sightseeing we wanted to enjoy one last afternoon along the river before heading home the next day. This was a very busy spot on a Friday afternoon but we we able to snag a table on the patio along the river. Enjoyed our prosecco and people watched.

We visit this Cotes regularly and are always delighted. Good food and wine, with attentive service, delivered in a great environment right by the Thames. We have dined inside (upstairs and down) and outside. All great. Today Gosia looked after our table again and was delightful

My second visit since it has had a facelift to look more up-market. I had the all-inclusive breakfast deal which looks like good value at around £15 as it includes drinks and fresh orange juice and your choice of cooked or cold breakfast The breakfast was not as good as it used to be. The fresh orange juice is not freshly squeezed on the premises anymore I discovered , but is delivered every 4-5 days in bottles, sadly this is nowhere near the same. The cafetiere of coffee was horrendously strong and had to be changed. The toast was dried bread with absolutely no colour. The other items on the" full French" were fine. I noticed that the lady manager was rushing to take drinks orders even before customers were seated and had looked at any menus. I have never seen this before in a professional establishment.

I'm not usually someone who leaves reviews however felt I needed to on this occasion as my boyfriend and I had such a nice time on Sunday. We came in for breakfast, which was lovely and would absolutely recommend (the French toast was so good!), but the highlight was the service. Each member of the team that looked after our table were warm and friendly, a particular mention to Barry who made us feel so welcome, thank you all!

Beautiful spot on the river, cote has always been a reliable place for a quick lunch in town. They offer a varied menu, and usually deliver great food. Yesterday I’m not sure what was going on in cote just by London Bridge, but all the staff seemed to be in an awful mood. No one was smiling, they just bunched together with long faces at the bar area. I spent majority of my time waving my arms in the air to get attention, and even on arrival the drinks took 15 minutes to come to our table. The food was reliable as always, but The service was so lack lustre that I felt compelled to speak to the manager to ensure that the service charge was not automatically applied to our bill. We even had to wait for her for about 10 minutes to come to our table table, and once I had complained, she said well it wasn’t my fault. I wasn’t here. furthermore, when I tried to pay the bill with cash, she told me that they didn’t accept cash. I stated that I hadn’t been told this fact and she said you should’ve been told on arrival and then just pulled the face. Not sure if I’m more disappointed with the service, or the reaction from the manager who really didn’t seem very bothered. That said she did remove some of the items from our Bill, including the service charge, which would’ve been a nice gesture had it been supported with a gracious apology, or even some acknowledgement that the staff , were on this occasion not up to scratch.

Had a fabulous breakfast. Great selection and in a great location. Sat outside with a great view. Service was average. Shame about the ceramics being tea stained.

Lovely meal at Cote Hays Galleria. Made all the more enjoyable by our fab waitress Charlie P. Tasty food and great service. Thanks 😊

We have been to this restaurant several times. We loved the recent refit which looks fabulous. It is my family’s ‘go to’ place when looking to eat in central London. We all continue to be totally impressed by the welcome we’re given, the fabulous service, the impressive food and the great value. I went with my son a few days ago and as usual we had a great meal with impeccable service by Cristian. We’ll be back soon.

We had booked 12 for lunch ( pre booked in January ) for 9th February Some of our party arrived early to see it was closed until March No contact from the restaurant to say it was closed Dreadful service as not easy to fit 12 in anywhere at such short notice!!

6-Sep-23 Cote London Bridge: Visited on a Wednesday evening for dinner. I've previously found this branch quite reliable but on this occasion service was very slow and a couple of elements of the dishes were not available so had to be substituted. To be fair, when we politely complained we were given a small glass of prosecco each and our dessert was complimentary. So they did the right thing in the circumstances.

Restaurante situado muy cerca de Tower Bridge en Southwark, muy buena ubicación y calidad precio aceptable para Londres. Comida bastante normal, la atención bien. Aunque no está mal, solo volveré sino tengo otra opción, aunque como digo no está mal

Comimos muy bien y se nos trato fenomenal por parte del personal, en especial mencion a camille que nos ayudo mucho ya que no sabiamos muy bien ingles y nos hablaba poco españoli. Muchas gracias

Cote is my go-to resturant when in London as i can rely on it for gluten-free food. This was my first time to this particular Cote due to meeting a friend in the area. The service was excellent. I felt really well looked after, particularly as i had a bit of a wait for my friend to arrive. The service throughout was attentive and very good. The food was great too. The only thing i noticed was that there seemed to be fewer items on the GF breakfast menu than before - so it meant a reduced choice - but i still had a really good breakfast and enjoyed what i had (full veggie breakfast) - as did my friend. I guess the reduced menu is probably due to business-related issues in the chain as a whole given the tough market conditions they have to deal with now - and i am just grateful they are still going - as it's getting harder for me in London to eat out now re GF post pandemic etc. So i highly recommend this restaurant and will return when in the area.

Fabulous. Service was perfect and food delicious. Such good value for money and service charge well earnt. Food came in a timely manor. We had the set menu which was extremely good value. I had my newborn and pram with me which wasn’t a problem. Highly recommend.

Special thanks to Gosia and Dahlia for excellent service. We were a large group and service was excellent and timely. Well done

Went here for my birthday and used the booking page that noted it was my birthday and there would be a free glass of cremant on arrival. Arrived on time and also advised the maitre de it was my birthday. Was seated downstairs where the only view is peoples legs going past the window despite there being an upstairs with a view of the river. Ordered and our food and drink arrived in good time. No mention of the free cremant. Food was delicious and reasonably priced. Paid and left. No one took much notice of us on arrival, during our visit or when we left. I have been in the past to the Cote at St Katherines Dock which I found much friendlier and also made my birthday visits special. No complaints in particular but this branch is very flat and although not rude not very friendly. I wont be going back here again and certainly would not go for my birthday again. I had a reservation to come back in a couple of weeks with a group of friends but have since cancelled.

Arrived at 5.30 for dinner before the theatre. Alot of the menu was not available. It would have been better to have been advised of this before we sat down and then we could gave chosen to go elsewhere.What we had was ok small portions and mediocre. The location is nice and the waitress good, however the manager just arrived extremely quickly when I asked for the bill. I did complain about the lack of items available and he could have offered a coffee or something for the inconvenience but just took the money and ran. Wouldn't return the cotes locally are better.

I managed to snag a table quickly, and while the service was relatively speedy, the staff didn't appear particularly friendly or forthcoming with information. However, the food was delicious, so I'd still recommend this place with the caveat that they could definitely improve their customer service

When we arrived the place was very quiet and there was a gathering of staff around the bar area. We were at the bottom of the stairs by the entrance for a while before the staff noticed us. They were all busy chatting amongst themselves and drinking hot drinks. We were eventually given a table. After waiting for a server or Manager to come and take our order, I had to draw the attention of a Manager to take our order. The food was good. I noticed one of the Servers passing hot drinks across the tables and handing the hot drinks to people. This worried me. Overall impression was very lax and inattentive service but reasonable food.

Even though the restaurant was busy & we hadn’t made a reservation we were seated quickly. Service was good, attentive and courteous. We decided on the two course option, which was ideal for our needs. The steak and fries were good, as was the chocolate crepe. Throughout the meal our server, Daniella was excellent in every respect. A real credit to the establishment.

I booked a table online for myself, my cousin and our two small babies (1 month + 4 months old) adding a request for space for two prams outside. In the past I've found Cote to be family friendly so didn't expect this to be an issue. When I arrived at the restaurant I was told we couldn't sit outside by a very brusque maitre'd. I explained that I had requested this when I booked and she simply said "you can't book outside". This was frustrating as a walk in ahead of me with a pram had just been seated. I pointed out that we would be able to squeeze in (there was a large area with a bench with plastic flowers for Instagram photos that unsurprisingly noone was using) and eventually she relented. The worst thing was when she turned around a waiter said to her "another pram" and rolled his eyes and she muttered something under her breath I didn't catch. It must be said the waiter who served us was lovely but there's no way either of us will visit at Cote again, we felt so unwelcome. I received an email asking for feedback after the visit which I completed, but I never heard back so clearly management has no issue with this service. I'd also add the baby changing / accessible loo basically reaffirms a total disregard for parents with young children (and, worse, the disabled) - it's at the end of a narrow scruffy corridor near the kitchen that the staff themselves joke is "scary".

I went here for lunch with family. We had the lunch deal which is two courses for under £18. It was delicious! There are various options - not just steak. The view from outside is stunning! A must if the weather is nice!!

We're big Cote fans - excellent value for money and lovely people - but, for the first time, something went wrong on this visit. One dish wasn't up to standard - in fact the main element was inedible. BUT, the restaurant manager sorted it out immediately with great charm and good grace. A replacement dish appeared within minutes and was perfect.The restaurant was incredibly busy and of course things go wrong sometimes. The measure of Cote is that they put things right. Really impressive service from every single member of staff we had the pleasure of interacting with.Far from putting us off, this experience just made us like Cote more.

Very poor and disappointing experience. Food was basic and minimal. Veg were dried and had obviously been sitting around for a while. Portions were small and very un inspiring. Very poor value for money. Will not go back.

Buon livello, menù 3 portate per pranzo a prezzo fisso di 20 sterline molto buono. Piatti curati e servizio gentile. Da considerare per pranzo nella zona South Bank.

Highly recommend. We couldn’t have been looked after better. The food was good and the service was amazing. We really enjoyed our evening here. Thank you!

Great food, great place and nice staff. Doesn’t get much better than this. Will definitely be back any of these days. Top!

Während meines Wochenendtrips nach London habe ich dieses tolle Restaurant entdeckt. Das Personal hat uns sehr nett empfangen und wir konnten sogar draußen auf der Terrasse sitzen, den Blick auf die Tower Bridge und die ersten Sonnenstrahlen genießen. Das Essen war fantastisch und definitv das Geld wert. Außerdem gibt es auch eine große Auswahl an vegetarischen Speisen.Das nächste Mal wenn ich in London bin, werde ich dort wieder essen!

A rather delayed review. 12 of us visited here for Saturday lunch in January. This was for a special retirement. We sat upstairs on the large oval table so we could all see each other and interact. The staff couldn’t have done more for us and the added touch of the balloon (unrequested) and the Prosecco was just lovely. The food was delicious (as always) and the drinks kept us topped up without waiting. Special mention to Carmen who was first class as always and very attentive. What a little superstar she is. We will definitely return. Thank you so much once again for a gorgeous gorgeous afternoon.

I went before Xmas with a group of friends and had their Xmas menu. Which was excellent. However, we found after we had been overcharged for the wine. The bottle we chose was around £20. Expensive enough. But looking at the bill after we had been charged £30 a bottle. I have given 3 stars because of this. But lovely food. Very disappointed though with Wine overcharge. So won’t go again. Warning to others check your bill.

We visited Côte yesterday for lunch to celebrate two birthdays - we are a mummy group with three babies around 7 months old, which a lot of restaurants tend to flap about with so many buggies, but Côte was well prepared for us and I received a lovely reassuring email in the morning from Nikki to say they was looking foward to our visit. This was really customer service at its best, because anyone travelling with a group of babies knows that it can be a little over whelming sometimes as the babies pick the mood, but knowing the restaurant was looking forward to our arrival was very sweet and reassuring. As mentioned we was celebrating birthdays and Nikki and the team made us feel so welcome on arrival and special and even having the team help carry the buggies down the few steps into the restaurant. The service was excellent from the staff, very attentive and it was so sweet that they came to check in on how the babies where doing, even handing them out spoons to chew on to keep them entertained whilst we was eating (or trying to eat shall we say) We ended up dining from a set menu that we didn’t even realise they had until we sat down - portions where all good and overall excellent value for money and also considering your dining over looking the Thames at London Bridge. We all had the upgraded steak, which was cooked to perfection ( order the mushroom sauce too, delish! ) and the cocktail list although limited and would like to see a few more on there, had some great choices. We was in the restaurant for around 2.5 hrs in total, the babies are at the age where they want to be trying everything too so it can be a little chaotic but the staff was so attentive and all seemed very genuine to make sure we had a lovely dining experience. A big thank you to Nikki who is an exceptional member of the team, and whom is a fab ambassador for the restaurant brand for what real service with a GENUINE smile is about. We shall definitely be back and recommend you! Thank you from all of us. Lindsay & Saffie :)

Came here without a booking on a Sunday night. Food and service all of a really high quality. Would highly recommend and attend again.

The food was great and the view is lovely but what was really exceptional was the service. We were looked after by Niki who was extremely friendly and attentive and lovely to my three year old - best service I've had in London!

We was at cote Brassiere today for dinner today and most of the food was missing but our Waitress Daniela help us choose the best dishes for our dinner and we are very happy with our evening

A fantastic meal with friends and food was excellent hats off to the Chef ! The waitress Daniella was so friendly and attentive. Highly recommended !!

We received superb service. Ate some really delicious food. Enjoyed a great atmosphere. A really, really enjoyable meal.

Nine of us gathered last night for our annual old friends and partners' meal. There were a few unable or unwilling to come into London due to the raised Covid alert. The quality of food is irrelevant to this review. Most of the staff were not wearing masks as they leaned over us to take orders and hear over the din of background noise. Individual staff were asked repeatedly to put on a mask to serve us but they simply got another staff member who did wear a mask to serve us. At bill-paying time our unmasked waiter was again leaning all over us. I hope this review prompts their management to take a stronger position on staff and masks. It doesn't hurt to be safe.

There was a vibrant buzzy atmosphere reminding us of ‘life as it was’. We had an excellent evening with excellent food and excellent service. We enjoyed the unusual vegetarian sharing platter before going on to the beetroot bourguignon and the confit duck. The vegan chocolate dessert was decorated with the best fresh raspberries I’ve tasted for a long time. The chocolate mousse was good although we did prefer the darker chocolate version that used to be on the menu. I appreciated the filter coffee served in a cafetiere.Our table was small and when a wine glass was knocked slightly some wine spilt on my husband’s jumper. This happened in a flash and we must emphasise that this was NOT the fault of our server (who quite spectacularly rescued the glass and the rest of the wine!!) but he insisted on taking the cost of our desserts and coffee off the bill – most impressive.

this was the second time i dined here but the service this time round was so impeccable! John was so nice and attentive to our requests. John made it a very pleasant and enjoyable experience. highly recommend!

Been going to this restaurant for many years and it has never failed to deliver and last night was no exception. The atmosphere was buzzing and as always very busy but this never reflects on service or the food.My Husband had let them know when booking online that it was for my Birthday so when we arrived was greeted with a glass of bubbles which was very appreciated.I was disappointed that the duck wasn't available however waitress suggested another dish and it was absolutely wonderful. Dessert was equally amazing with staff singing happy birthday to me!!. The evening was rounded off with another complimentary glass of something I can't remember but was a lovely touch. Thank you Cote for yet another fantastic evening and I can't wait to return.

I visited with a friend on a busy Monday lunchtime to celebrate her engagement. Our initial table was a bit cramped and the host went out of her way to find us a table with more space. Our server Tatiana was just so lovely and when I chose a dish that was no longer available she offered her suggestions. Myself and my friend both had the fish parmentier which was basically fish pie but the best I’ve ever tasted! It had so much flavour, my only complaint was that it wasn’t big enough! We tried quite a few of the cocktails which were delicious with Tatiana making us her adaption of an espresso martini by making it a mocha espresso martini - it should be added to the menu! Tatiana then surprised us by bringing us a piece of chocolate tart as a congratulations, it was so lovely of her and a really lovely touch. I can’t fault the service or the food, it really was lovely dining experience and I’ll definitely be returning!

Went with a boyfriend and friends, had a great evening with the waiting stuff being super kind and helpful. The food my friend ordered was fresh and according to him, tasted amazing. Will definitely come back!

We were celebrating a family birthday and location-wise, this restaurant hits the spot. Having been to other branches of Cotes, we had high hopes for the food, but I have to say it was underwhelming. Four of us had the warm beetroot starter, and all of us were disappointed - yes, there was a lot of beetroot, but where was the creme fraiche, goat's curd and horseradish dressing? There was a tiny dribble, but basically all we got was a lot of beetroot! I then had the mushroom cassoulet, which tasted of...nothing! No seasoning, no garlic and although there were mushrooms in it, no mushroom flavour came through, no truffle flavour came through...it was so bland! The petit pois side dish was supposed to have mint in it, but I couldn't taste any mint. Some of the portions were small - my husband had the beef cheek bourguignon and for £17.50 it was certainly not worth it. We didn't say anything in the restaurant, as we weren't paying for the meal and it seemed churlish to complain when someone else is paying the bill. I hope that this is just a one-off, as I have always enjoyed eating at Cotes, but their latest menu left me feeling underwhelmed and although the service was fine I did expect more from the food.

My friend and I attended a late lunch on a Saturday afternoon.The dishes we both had were tasty and the prices were reasonable (for London). However, although the staff were very warm- the service was very slow. Simply put not enough staff for the amount of customers.

Good food - well presented and tasty. We had the vegetarian breakfast and the seabass. The waitress with pink-red hair was very good and attentive.

1having been turned away buy a half full ivy we came across cote were a nice table with a view of river was soon offered together with a blanket not needed had an English breakfast and a sort of stuffed croissant served by really friendly staff if your looking for a nice breakfast in Avery popular area with tourists at a fair price served with a smile look no further staff

Very pleased with the service. Staff are very helpful and attentive. Special thanks to Juan. Breakfast was really good and the view lovely.

Absolutely perfect meal , staff so attentive/ knowledgeable . Staff showed a real passion for what they was serving. Steak was soooo good. We have never had a bad experience from any cotes. Will definitely be coming back. Bravo to all at this restaurant.

The food was excellent: fresh and delicious. The service was too so much so that we agreed the service charge- not like us! Sat outside on the side of the Thames so a great view of Tower Bridge.

This was my favourite place to eat before the lockdown. I met my friend for supper and we were really looking forward to the food and a nice evening. We ordered our bottle of wine, which was nice and we both ordered "pollet Grille". We had only just started to eat it when the waitress asked whether it is was OK, the potatoes on the dish was Terrible!! and we were told the cream potatoes had changed they were so hard you couldnt eat them. I was very disappointed in the meal and wont be going back there in a hurry. If Nathan is still the area manager he should look into this matter asap. If I could score this under one I would!

Mal servicio. Hemos tenido que pedir el pan, el agua. Hemos pedido un expreso Martini que no han puesto, menos mal que no le han cobrado en la cuenta.

12 of us had a booked a table - on arrival as the weather was so lovely the staff sorted a table outside with no fuss. Great view. All the staff were attentive but discreet. Juan in particular was great. Taking orders from different menus and all paying separately can be a nightmare with such a large group but this happened with no fuss at all. The food was great. Considering the place was packed the staff did an excellent job of making you feel like you were the only people there, food all arriving at the same time and hot. Will definitely return.

Visited Cote Hays Galleria and as in every Cote I cannot fault the staff, very polite and helpful, we got the ribeye steaks which were unbelievably good as well.The main reason I go to any Cote is for the amazing Crab Mayo they do. I was so disappointed they changed the recipe, it tastes like canned tuna, tasteless and at the same price the original crab mayo was. Don't understand why they would downgrade the best item on the menu

Well I was having Calamari and beet tartar not long time ago. It was excellent, not just food but the waitress as well. I belive that the good staff is equally important, sometimes even more, as good food and our waitress Tatjana, serbian lady, was joy to behold. We enjoyed our meal and her presence. Will come again and hopefully she will be serving me again. All the best!

Well what a lovely meal with fantastic service. We had requested a round table as there was 10 of us and we wanted to all be able to chat together. We were all couple and we were celebrating a birthday. When we first arrived we were told the upstairs wasn’t open so we couldn’t have that table. This was very disappointing as we had specifically reserved this.. BUT…. they straight away opened up the upstairs for us. I was concerned they would forget about us up there but nothing could be further from that and the service we received. The lovely Carmen was so attentive. The food all came quickly and all at the same time. Carmen kept our glasses topped up and we had the loveliest afternoon. First class as always. Well done once again. We will definitely return.

We booked a table for lunch on Sunday midday. Luckily the weather was good enough to sit outside on the terrace area. There’s a really nice view from here I loved it. On arrival a very kind host directed me to the reserved table. Before they handle you the menu the first question is about any allergies or intolerance you have. I found this a great touch it made me feel we’ll have a caring service. Our meals were adequate for the price. My gluten-free friend enjoyed his food choice too. Coffees were served quite quickly. Staff was very polite but not too smiley probably because the place was packed, busy. I will possibly return again.

We visited just over a week ago for our wedding anniversary. Whilst a very pleasant day we elected to eat inside as the temperature was clearly going to drop off. It nevertheless remained a very good spot to have dinner, overlooking the Thames to the old Bishopsgate Fish Market opposite. We had booked, and were quickly shown to 'our table' we had not requested a particular table but Ione, who turned out to be our server for the evening showed us to her preferred table. Not liking to be rushed, always wishing to progress an evening at our own pace we let Ione know this and she was absolutely great, always there, but never intrusive and with excellent inter-personal skills that created a friendly but professional customer relationship. The pre-drinks were delivered very promptly and allowed us to read the menu at our leisure. Not unexpectedly we both ordered the Devon Crab Maison, we have had it before and it never disappoints. For the mains, my wife had the Monkfish Piperade, truly excellent, and the portion of Crispy Confit Potato were a revelation. We have already read up how to make these, they were truly excellent. I ordered a Rib Eye steak, oh dear, whilst cooked as I had asked, rare, the steak knife had trouble cutting either end and when the white cartilaginous piece was revealed I gave up. My complaint was, acknowledged and very well and discreetly dealt with by both Ione and the Manager. Whilst offered another steak I was not prepared to risk the same or keep my wife waiting any longer as she was eating, I chose an alternative, the Magret de Canard (served pink), and it was, truly excellent! Fortunately my wife wanted some help with her Crispy Confit Potato! Having advised, during the booking that it was our anniversary a very kind complimentary chocolate mousse dessert was served to us. Whilst I do not normally eat desserts I have to admit it was very very good. We did indeed have a thoroughly enjoyable evening, great service, great location and save that disappointing steak, great food. Thank you all, we will be returning.

Lovely restaurant and stuff. We sat out with one of the best views in London. We felt very welcomed, the food was very tasty and fresh. We will be back soon. Thank you for everything.

An outstanding lunch to celebrate a friend's 50th birthday. The Cote du Boeuf was a particular highlight, although I also thoroughly enjoyed the calamari appetizer. A wonderful selection of wines and cocktails, and don't get me started on the cheeseboard. We were served by Ligner who was super attentive, but discreet and didn't rush or crowd us. Four and a half hours later we finally left. A memorable meal. What they do, they do so well. Thanks Cote!

Visited for lunch on a windy grey day, but still worth sitting outside for the amazing view of the Thames and the HMS Belfast. Staff were so friendly and happy… obliged us when. We wanted to sit more under the umbrellas due to it starting to rain slightly. Staff were wearing masks and were regularly cleaning. Food was excellent, especially the chocolate fondant I had for desert. Highly recommended….. well done all waiting staff, you were happy and friendly and added to our visit.

We usually love Cote. We won’t be returning to this one. Most staff lacked basic customer service skills. The food was the usual Cote standard (no issues whatsoever). Staff should have been wearing masks. This would afford some reassurance to patrons that Cote are taking care of their COVID safety standards. All together, an underwhelming experience. We expected so much more (our Brighton Cote has exemplary service with the same quality of food)

Having never eaten at Cote before, we did for the first time on 26th Aug. I ordered a rare 6oz filet steak, but was served a medium rare rump steak,. We brought this to the attention of the staff, but the manager took over the situation and after a short wait I was served with the best filet steak I have ever had. We were both given a free glass of wine as compensation. It was a lovely evening and we will eating at Cote again!

We had a fabulous table outside over looking The Thames and although it was a cool evening we were made very comfortable by the patio heaters. The food was beautifully cooked and presented and the service provided by Peter, Niki, Andra and Carmen was absolutely first class. They attended to our every need. They were all so friendly and engaging and when they found out we were on a mini honeymoon they made us feel very special and gave us the perfect end to a perfect day in London. We could not have been better served anywhere

I have been to many cote branch's and this was the worst by far which was a shame. You have to wait a while before someone serves you and most of the staff look like they have got somewhere better to be. It spilt the overall experience, remember the service charge is optional and don't pay it if you feel like they do not deserve it!

Wonderful evening meal here for my husbands birthday. Service was excellent from the moment we were greeted on arrival to our friendly waiter. The quality of the food was excellent and arrived in good time despite the restaurant being full. A lovely atmosphere and we would definitely return!

This is how to do customer service. Immediately greeted with a smile and so helpful. Great views, pleasant staff and fantastic food. I couldn’t fault this place one bit. Most places in London should be learning from how nice this team were. Will definitely be back.

Had a great evening meal of steak frites here. Georgie was a really good waitress, very attentive. She steered us towards the creme caramel rather than creme brûlée and we loved it.

Excellent breakfast with lovely views across the Thames. Had to remind them a couple of times over things we had ordered that didn’t arrive.

This Cote was rightly popular at lunchtime on a hot sunny day. The north facing terrace with its views of the river and HMS Belfast was just a bit more crowded than ideal, but the food was excellent, as was the service. The prix fixe menu provided plenty of choice of interesting French dishes, and at a basic £21 for 3 courses it was excellent value.

Very impressed with Cote Hays Galleria this evening. Everything was running superbly well this evening from the greeter to the waiting staff, and from the kitchen to the manager. Everyone was ‘on it’ in the best possible sense - well done. And what a great location on a warm evening.

Super french food , with seating alongside the river. Nice wine selection and great service despite being busy. Great views.

Just finished a fabulous meal here The Calamari and French Onion Soup were lovely and my Sirloin steak with Roquefort butter was cooked(rare)to perfection My partner had Beef cheek that was extraordinary special. A special thank you to Anna for her service and the Manager Peter for coming to talk to us before we left Top marks to all

I visited here with my wife yesterday. My wife has a fondness for this restaurant, so we had booked a table.It was fairly busy when we arrived, but one of the waiters (apologies we didnt get the name) was kind enough to sort out a river side table for us, when some other customer had left.The environment, food and service was all very good and with the help of the weather made our lunch very enjoyable.Will be visiting again.

Took us a while to get the attention of staff when we arrived as lots of work was going on. Once we we’re greeted we were told that hot food was off the breakfast menu due to a gas problem. That was fine for us as we only wanted a pastry & coffee. Pastries were Cote standard fare but good but the surroundings of the river were fantastic. Lovely spot for a cote!

We booked a table here to celebrate my daughter's 16th while in London for half term. We had such a memorable evening and thoroughly enjoyed our visit. The staff were so friendly to us and our dog Poppy who came along for the evening. They allow dogs at the tables on the terrace which was grand as we could make the most of the riverside setting, sunny evening atmosphere and London skyline.The staff were amazing and went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and the birthday girl super special. The food was so tasty and well presented. Great menu options so we all found something that delighted. Fabulous bottle of Sancerre too!Our waitress was Ionie and Nikkie was the manager on duty. We haven't been to Cote Brasserie for several years but would definitely recommend and next time we are in London will head back here. Can't recommend enough. Thanks so much to the whole team for such a wonderful evening.

Excellent service, excellent menu choice, excellent food, staff were friendly, polite & professional. There was a great atmosphere and staff seemed really happy to serve you. We were served by Tatiana who was fabulous. I thoroughly recommend this restaurant we shall be back.

Had breakfast at this lovely place. The weather was gorgeous and we sat outside for a fabulous 830am view over the river Thames. The French Breakfast was top class with bourdon noir to die for and the pain au chocolate as good as you get. Overall: fabulous food, relatively reasonable prices all set in a stunning location.

Stopped for a quick bite at lunchtime & enjoyed it very much. Not a huge choice if you only wanted something small but what we had was delicious. The staff were very good even though they were fresh back after Covid & rushed off their feet in the glorious weather. Definately worth a stop even for a drink & to enjoy the views.

Finally getting out to enjoy a meal along The Thames, we chose to dine in Cote Brasserie, having visited here before lockdown last year. Most of the hospitality team were new and they had only been open 2 weeks, yet we were waited on by attentive, lovely staff and service flowed with no issues. The tables are well laid out, in accordance with social distancing, and it felt so nice and safe to enjoy a lovely 3 course meal again.

I had booked Christmas eve lunch here for the legal six of us but then everything was forced to close. So we had the lunch in late May. The weather was better in December. The staff were very kind in making it possible for us to lunch indoors. That is now legal but several of my party were still worried about being indoors and the staff did their best to meet those concerns in terms of how and where they seated us. That apart we did have a very nice lunch.

We did have a wonderful time here. I did order a French Onion soup and pork tenderloin. The food was hot, well presented and very tasty. It is a bit pricey restaurant but it is worthy to visit it and done here. I would go back here again. I would recommend it.

We were so much looking forward to our night at Cote, as our first time out in so many months. We sat outside, as per tier 2 regulations, and the location next to the Thames was as fantastic as we expected. We have to say, that our waitress was friendly and efficient. Also that the wine and cocktails were lovely. However, the food was abysmal. We all had the Christmas menu, and had haddock as a main course. The fish read overcooked and dried out, and the accompanying vegetables were completely tasteless. One of the party could not finish the food. We were asked dying the meal by a more senior waitress how everything was; when we said that the food, actually, was awful, she brushed it off, said that she was sorry to hear that and did we need any more drinks. If we had not been with friends, we would have complained, but we did not want to spoil the evening. We will not be returning to Cote. It was as though they didn't need to try because they are a chain. So they didn't. It was a very expensive evening (£280 for 4 people), and the food was awful.

If you want the best service and best food this is the place to go! I had an amazing time with my dad! The steak was unreal and the service was amazing! So thankful. We had a lovely waitress Gyereyi xxx thank you!!!

I love this place!I came once before with my Husband and this time with a friend.Such an amazing location,especially if you sit outside!Fantastic value for money and also the food is really lovely.Service has been great every time I've visited and they even gave us a couple of glasses of bubbly on the house as it was my friends birthday.I've already booked to come again.Definitely worth a visit!

Ive eaten hear numerous times food is always to a good standard but on this occasion it was really poor the food was edible however the mushroom brioche was literally just the sauce no mushrooms whatsoever, the prawn gratin was bland the prawns were rubbery, the English breakfast was pretty awful the bacon and sausage were cooked but only just not even slightly browned, the scrambled eggs were dry.The waitress and waiters however where friendly and polite no complaints with service just the quality of food!

I got a vegan breakfast which consisted of 1 sausage, a piece of toast that was approx half a slice of toast, half a tomato, mushroom and few leave of spinach. I was absolutely starving after. My friend had a huge fry, the plate was jam packed with stuff, 2 rounds of toast on a side plate because there was no room on her huge plate for the toast plus a tea included and hers came to just 1 pound extra! If you are vegan dont eat here!

No se donde empezar. . . este lugar es asombroso. Excelente ubicación y excelente comida. . . El servicio es excelente, puede ver que el personal realmente se preocupa por el cliente. En nuestro caso, creo que Shaila hizo todo lo posible para asegurarse de que la pasáramos muy bien y de que no faltara nada en nuestra mesa. Grandes habilidades para los clientes. . . felicitaciones a la gerencia.En general, una excelente relación calidad-precio con excelente comida y un servicio increíble. . .Volveremos ?

Encontré este restaurante por accidente y me encantó la vista, así que tomé una copa sentado afuera.Fuimos a dar un paseo y luego decidimos volver a comer.Vistas asombrosas del HMS Belfast y Tower Bridge.Tuve el filete y mi novio comió el pollo y compartimos un pan de ajo. No hay mucho que ver con el pan de ajo y era demasiado caro y en cuanto a la "ensalada de tomate", ¡esto era solo un tomate cortado!El bistec estaba bueno, pero desafortunadamente el pollo estaba mal cocido y de color rosa brillante en un lado.Lo quitaron de la factura, pero fue una pena, ya que estropeó la comida. Era para mi cumpleaños, así que esperaba que fuera una buena experiencia, una pena.

Had a long boozy lunch earlier this week with family who we haven’t seen for months. We were looked after well by all the team. Anna in particular was fantastic! Lovely food had by all and will definitely return again. Highly recommend visiting!

Everything was perfect except the burger, meat dry and the bun was made out of goodness knows what... Stick to a basic brioche bun FFS!!!

Fuimos a dar un paseo por el río en el Puente de Londres y Peter apareció de la nada mientras estábamos mirando el menú y nos invitó a unirnos a ellos. Fuimos a una terraza exterior perfecta con vistas a la ciudad y toda su hermosa arquitectura y tomamos un martini de ruibarbo y algunos calamares y langostinos, luego la comida. Axenia y Peter fueron los mejores, la comida era excelente y los postres deberían ser ilegales para los menores de 18 años. ¡Obscenamente delicioso! Ahora es uno de nuestros restaurantes "ir a" en nuestras incursiones ocasionales para no cocinar para nosotros mismos. Gracias por una agradable velada. Gayna y Simon
