Had a really nice family birthday meal last night. Food was excellent, service was good. The restaurant manager really looked after us and made the evening very special. Thank you.

First visit and very good experience. The table service was excellent both friendly and helpful. They have an interesting menu and some classic French dishes. Had the Breton Fish Stew which found to be full of flavour, hearty and an ample portion. The ambience in the outside dining area was an unexpected bonus and all reasonably priced for Marlow. Will certainly have to return if only to try the selection of cheeses.

We've been to Cote Marlow twice recently, first as a couple (the evening we got married) and then a few days later with family. Everything was good; the food, the atmosphere and the service. The value is good too, particularly if you opt for the fixed price menu. We are planning to come back for our anniversaries.

All of the staff at Côte in Marlow gave their above and beyond service even when they are extremely busy. They really cared about our experience in celebrating my partner’s birthday, even when they have been very busy celebrating with other parties in the main restaurant as well. This place is well worth the visit and could not the fault the service, even for a large party, which often eludes many good restaurants.

My boyfriend booked a table for 2 for my 30th birthday plus to surprise me with an engagement ring. (Very special time for us) The table was booked for Monday 9pm (probably the quietest time in hospitality). We don’t get opportunity to go out since we have a little toddler. We were very excited to go to cote as it’s one of my favorite place. We arrived....there were probably 3 tables booked in the whole restaurant for the whole night But the waitress still didn’t seem to be expecting us at all. She asked “hi how can I help” Then she looked at the booking sheet and confirmed the booking, (my partner booked the table through phone and said it was my bday) . She then said to sit wherever we would like. There was a table by the window (wasn’t set up) we decided to sit there. I will try to write this in shortest version I can. Service steps been followed. Dessert spoon was missing and single knife and fork and bits been left on table but no big deal. I felt like I didn’t get the attention from the waitress or at least not near as much as I would expect. I’m pregnant and my favorite starters are crab mayo and calamari which I’m not 100% if allowed while pregnant. I asked the waitress if I could have calamari very well done (I know chef probably laughing at it) she said yes of course but clearly she didn’t care and when the starter arrived (2 calamari) she didn’t say if one of them was cooked more. Then I asked steak frites well done and my partner asked steak frites too but cooked how it comes normally. When it arrived noone give any information which was cooked how. I only knew which could be mine because I asked mushroom sauce with it. And both steak were cooked medium rare. Even when I wasn’t pregnant I still had my steak well done coz it’s just how I like it. Sorry guys. I didn’t complain or sent any food back. I wasn’t in the mood to ruin my night over this. But definitely thought to write this at some point. The bill arrived without any information if something is been taken off as it was a bday celebration. I saw that my dessert been taken off the bill so thank you for this now! This isn’t a Cote standard and nobody been exceeding my expectations unfortunately. When I was taught for service steps , Cote standard, there was 2 complimentary kir royal without any question or drink orders to start with. Paying a lot more attention to the guest requests, explaining the bill plus if it was me serving I was gonna find a single candle in the drawer by the reception desk, put a candle in the dessert and sing happy birthday as it always make the guest feel very special and this is how we used to do it and it worked! It was around 4-5 years ago so you might changed the standards since then I’m sorry my bad. In that time with this “standard” I would have been very screwed by the area manager. We left the restaurant around 10pm, tables were very much just a step away from being ready for breakfast set up. I’m really sorry for this review. I love the food in cote and the whole culture and the standards, I hope this isn’t the way where you planning to go. I wrote this review most importantly just to give the managers a heads up on this. I know it was Monday and boring and not much to do...I’ve been there. But every little counts. And I was super excited to go cote but came out disappointed. Sorry again

One thing you are definitely NOT short of in Marlow is restaurants. There are all the big names, thriving independents, and even a fish and chip shop, all within a few hundred yards of each other. Spooky for choice, we were impressed by the staff when we dropped in Tobin at lunchtime. It's a bit high volume but the food is excellent and good value for money, but not cheap. We had a short wait for our starters as they were busy and got rewarded for the wait with a voucher for 2 free drinks next time! All without us having to complain too! Quality food, great service, we must visit Cote again.

Our meal was pleasant and the food was pretty good but not amazing, that is with the exception of the creme caramel desert which was easily the best I have ever had so well worth the visit for that alone. We were served by a new starter who made load of mistakes, forgot to order items and presented us with the wrong bill so had to come after us when we were leaving cap in hand for another £20. I suppose everyone has their first day at work so I shouldn't be too harsh though she didn't appear very customer friendly. If you are paying a visit do choose the Creme Caramel you will NOT be disappointed.

There are a number of chain restaurants that come and go and leave not much of a trace behind. I suspect that is the fate of Cote that in a few years will disappear to be replaced by some eatery theme that hits the spot of the moment. This one lies about half way between a Café Rouge and a decent London Brasserie such as Les Deux Salons. It looks like a chain from the inside and the out. The menu contains most of the usual suspects, from which my wife chose French Onion Soup and Boeuf...
