Côte Kingston upon Thames in Kingston upon Thames

had a wonderful experience at côte, the food was amazing, delicious and reasonably priced for 2 on NYE. the staff were very attentive and friendly, would definitely be going back!

A nice variety of French regional food. Nice setting. Update 12/24 - lovely meal again, great service -shame there's no Toulouse cassoulet/stew on offer....

Really enjoyed this restaurant, would definitely recommend and visit again!

Horrible experience,I was noticed that the payments must be sorted by card once we was arrived on there,then when I asked for the bill,one guy probably the manager come to us and in a total arrogance,told us I’m a rude way that will be not a acepted.He ask even to my friend pay it for me.. Then he turned his back and left saying that I was refusing to pay, We didn't believe it, we got up and went to one of the waiters where I managed to pay the bill.Dusgusting experience.Monday 23/12 4pm ish.

That day was special for me. I was goimg for a date with someone very close to Me. Obviesly You must to chose a charming place for it. What can be better and romantic than Dinner at riverside. So I choose This particular place as I have eaten there before and had good memories. About the food its only Few words You can describe it. Delicious, delicate, excellent and mouth watering. We had starter, chesse and selection of meat board, for main I went for Seafood stew wich was outer space(that good) The Lady I was with had a pork belly. I had a bite of it, belive me I got goosebumps! Amazing place for Dates! Atmosphere and service was 100/10 They know What they do!! Well skilled and informed Staff. Place look clean and charming. Realy Place to go for! Thank You!

Amazing food and attention tothose with allergies was spot on

Hi . Too disappointed about a service .

We always get great service at Cote Kingston. Our son is autistic and always relaxes in there despite the busy atmosphere. Food is excellent too.

Good choices of breakfast, friendly staff. Opens at 9am and good coffee

Please don't wait until I have eaten to find out you are cashless. Very embarrassing to have to ask a client to pay the bill

Arrived for a birthday meal at lunchtime by a cold November day ,5c outside , to be greeted by a restaurant manager who clearly explained there was no heating in the restaurant and that it was very cold inside. Opted to stay but unfortunately the service was equally frosty and inhospitable. 15mn for someone to take our order & altogether we had to wait 50mn before we saw our dish arrive ...no attempts to compensate for the freezing restaurant by offering a hot drink on the house or the wait for the food . Once finished, plates were not cleared so in the end and after patiently waiting , we went to pay at the counter and opted to get desert somewhere warmer and more professional . Sincerely guys, one would expect Cote to have someone repair the heating system straight away or else learn to manage the situation better . Don't get into the hospitality business if you can't offer it !

Very nice place. Dinner was excellent.

Fantastic brunch last Saturday. Staff were welcoming and friendly with excellent service. We were on a family get together so it was a special day. Everyone enjoyed the brunch. Thank you

Great restaurant and amazing service. We booked a table to celebrate my daugther birtheday. The had a decoration and a b-day card. Small details that were very appreciated.

Nicoas salad very bad!!!!not fresh, smells disgusting 🤢 Fries for Burger very oily (2 times cooked (warm in the oil)

I was at a dinner with co-workers and we all had a great experience. The atmosphere is beautiful, the service is friendly and it doesn't take long for the food to be brought out. The food then... delicious. Starter, main course, dessert and wine, everything was perfect.

My husband and I went to Cote 8th November. The food was good so was the service, but it was so noisy. I know the customers were partly to blame, but there are ways of reducing the sound by hanging items from the ceiling to reduce the noise. I spoke to some people sitting outside, and they said that is why they were eating there.

Great food, lovely atmosphere and fantastic service. Would give 6 stars for the service if I could!

Very bad service, especially manager in the entrance. We brought food for out little son because he eat only what we have and we'll order for us anyway. But they refused to give us a seat. Very poor hospitality and never coming again!

Lovely food and atmosphere and great staff. Made it special for our daughter's birthday.

Great seating area and lovely view of the Thames. Good tea ☕️ and excellent customer service.

This is an amazing place where you want to return again and again. Friendly staff, delicious food and snacks and great cocktails!!!

We really enjoyed this restaurant! We went twice. The first time we sat outside because the weather was nice and the second time inside. Enjoyed both settings. The food was lovely and the service both times very professional. I would definitely try this restaurant in its other locations as well.

The worst breakfast I have had in a very long time. Everything freezing, service took so long that I couldn’t face asking for a hot meal. Portions ridiculously small! Waiter asked how it was, I told him it was disappointing and cold, he didn’t acknowledge my feedback and just simply walked off. Unless you want cold, sloppy food - do not visit. So annoyed with the whole experience that I’m sitting writing this whilst in the restaurant….after we asked for the bill for the second time.

Rude manager turned us away despite clearly loads of space. I can only assume because we had a new born. She was incredibly rude. Won’t bother ever returning.

Got a cab all the way there just to be told we can’t sit and eat because we haven’t made a reservation. For 11:50 in the morning? When the whole of the outside (20+ tables) are empty and we wanted to sit down for breakfast for 20 minutes. Ridiculous and not even worth booking. Shitty place

Warm service❤️‍🔥, very conscientious! The food is also good👍, the portion is large, enough for two people to order the main dish. Recommended to eat steak

Went to lunch with family on a beautiful weekend. The food is good, especially the pork belly. Our host, Anne provided us with a wonderful experience. She is cheerful, helpful and professional. Cote is lucky to have hired a host like Anne, rare to see anywhere else.

Not sure if I will will ever return,hasn’t kept up with the standards I used to have.

A beautiful and luxurious French restaurant in Kingston near the river. The food was delicious and fresh. A good option for dating. The service was also fast and attentive. I would like to thank Diogo for his attentive service. It also has a nice outdoor area. The inside is not very large and the tables are unfortunately a bit small. It is very loud inside and the music is not even heard. The price is also a bit high. Overall I was satisfied, it is a nice restaurant, I recommend it.

Part of the chain so consistent across food and ambience parameters. Forgot to bring the kids meals, which we had ordered 10mins before adults' to ensure they delivered early. Its was busy wk before Xmas but still... Manager remedied immediately, and service very attentive thereafter. Manager also removed 1 kids mean from bill... a very reasonable attempt to make amends. I therefore rate service highly as we all make mistakes but how u try to remedy is the real show of service.

Professional staff and good food. I usually go there for dinner and they never disappoint.

We had a really lovely lunch for my mum’s birthday - the food was great (especially recommend the fish stew), the service was really quick but in particular the team are all so welcoming and friendly. Great atmosphere, definitely recommend.

Was our first time visiting Cote Kingston. Went there for my Wife’s birthday. Great experience and great food. Nathan and Robert made us feel welcome. We will definitely return.

Another lovely visit to my favourite Cote. Received a great service from Nathan. Came with my daughter and we both enjoyed our meals. Will definitely come again.

Great staff and amazing food and drinks with not too sweet or bitter desserts and pastries.They also have a selection of 11 cheeses

All the staff were friendly and helpful. They serve you promptly but do not hurry you. The salads were fresh and crunchy. The steak was cooked a perfect medium rare and condiments were offered with the plate. It was a very busy service but it did not impact on our meal

Everything was great! The Bulgarian waiter (apologies I can't recall your name) that served me was very attentive and made me feel very welcome as a lone diner looking for a nice place to eat! The set menu is great value and definitely recommended. Thank you!

The food was good, but we live in the UK, I'm not sure why there's a 10% service fee. I highly doubt this is translated into server tips anyway. We have a minimum wage. Countries that tip tend to not have a minimum wage.

Top service! Isabella was very helpful in finding us a bit of a quiet table with a doggy.Food was excellent ,with a fabulous view!Great Sunday we had,thank you so much!

Thank you so much Food was amazing and atmosphere as well

Lovely dinner and drinks - we had a table outside with a view of the river which was nice. Calamari starter was excellent. As was the sirloin steak. The green beans were a little over done but tasted fine - everything else was great. I would recommend booking if you are looking for an outside table.

Everything about it was good from the guy at the door to the waiter, I definitely would be back again

Came here for our anniversary and didn't regret it. We were attended to immediately and offered a free glass of prosecco to celebrate our anniversary. Excellent location, lovely attentive staff and very good food. Highly recommended.

Love this place. It never disappoints!

Very nice ♥️ I really love it 😍

Love it! Visited twice in two days. Great French Bistro food.

Very nice atmosphere for a sunny hot day. Had some amazing service from Paula and Maria. Very polite and engaging.

I have come here quite a few times before and have had a quite good experience. The atmosphere and overall cleanliness of the restaurant was very good and we were seated quickly and given menus with a wide range of options. The entrées were very tasty and we found the warm tomato salad especially impressive, the main meals and desert were also delicious however I have noticed that the place has become victim to shrinkflation as some of my favorite dishes were being served in smaller portions the same or increased price. Otherwise it was definitely a good experience however it is too expensive to come back again often.

We had a drink by the river with a view. It is definitely a very cute business. The staff is friendly and the service is fast. I recommend it.

We walked in to see if we could sit by the river & have dinner. We was met by a horrible looking lady with a black bob who turned us away and was extremely rude. We will not be going anywhere near this place.

Thank you so much Alex for such an amazing service, I can’t wait to come back very soon.

A very nice and pleasant place to eat. We went with a celiac person and there was a special gluten free menu. The waiters are very friendly and attentive. We left very happy 🤗☺️

Thank you so, so much to Charly and Dominik for the fabulous service. Made my mum, Audrey’s, birthday so special. Everyone was fantastic, the guy who served our food was so funny and no request was too much. We will be back soon. Order the seabass!

A quality restaurant by the river. Good service and food . Excellent outdoor seating with umbrellas and heaters to enable al fresco dining even during a Summer shower

From the moment we arrived until we left, all the staff were absolutely professional, attentive and served us with utmost efficiency

Delicious breakfast. Wonderful service by Caitlyn and the team.

I ordered the three-course lunch menu. My first course was deep fried whitebaits but I think they’ve forgotten to season them! My main was steak frites and I added £1 to upgrade the chips to truffle chips. When my main came, I completely forgot that I gave upgraded the chips to truffle chips and the chips did not taste truffle at all. I only realised when I almost finished them but there were a few left in the cup which they used to put the chips so I called their waiter/waitress for help. The first waitress told me she would speak to the manager and she was very helpful. Then when I saw no one came to confirm what they would do about it, I spoke to another waiter (main in glasses with black hair) and he was not helpful at all. He seemed to question my motive despite that i asked him to smell the remaining chips to confirm they did not smell of truffle at all. He also said, “but you have finished it!” (The exclamation mark described his tone of voice and what he said they said was not true because there were still some left in the cup and some on my plate). So I explained to him that yes I only realised I have indeed added £1 to upgrade the chips to truffle chips almost towards the end of my lunch. Truffle has a very distinct taste and so misunderstanding was impossible. In the end he said he would speak to the manager and the manager (a woman in red suit jacket) came. I explain to her my situation again and she was immediately very helpful and told me they had removed the £1 from my bill. I hope the male waiter (in glasses with black hair) would be more empathetic to his customers and understand that if I want to cheat, I would not cheat them for £1!!!!!!! I have repeatedly asked him to smell the chips but he refused!!!

Fantastic Dinning Experience at Côte! The moment I walked in, I was struck by the warm and inviting atmosphere. The decor is beautifully done, with specific elements that I liked, such as the lighting, seating, artwork, and more. Côte exceeded my expectations in every way. The combination of excellent food, top-notch service, and a delightful ambiance makes it a must-visit. Whether you’re looking for a place to celebrate a special occasion or just want a fantastic meal, Côte is the place to go. Highly recommended! Moe

Amazing location, excellent service and delicious food. The vegetarian menu is little limited but overall great experience!

Everyone was very friendly, attentive and professional. Very good food like always.

We had a great time, the food was wonderful and our waiter Diogo was lovely

Côte is one of our favourites and Côte in Kingston didn’t disappoint. Lovely lunch by the river and special thanks to Diego our waiter who has been so kind and thoughtful.

Average at best and a little uncomfortable at the cleanliness. Service is lovely, the location is perfect and atmosphere is good. The table linen and cleanliness of the cutlery is a question. My napkin was stained as was the saucer. Both had not been washed properly. The coffee tasted fine. The avocado on toast was just awful. The bread was not toasted and soggy under the avocado. The micro greens were wilted and looked like they'd been out for a while. Don't get me started on the potion/price ratio. The slices of toast were just sad. Two slices out of a baguette cut horizontally. The avocado was less than a half of a very small avocado, spread like butter. Everything tasted average and not terrible. Quality has been sliding downhill here recently. A few weeks ago had the pork belly which came out burnt and extremely salty. Classic case of post COVID attitude, less for more £££. Was in the mood to get wine and desserts but cut it short.

Lunched on Monday, today. 4 of us had the 3 course menu. Everything was excellent. The Parfait was amazing and the thinly sliced and toasted baguette went well, but not enough, but we were given more when asked. The Steak and Frites was totally perfect. Amazing taste and pink in the middle for such a thin steak. Seabass was great. Deserts all top quality (crepe, raspberry and lemon sorbet, choc mouse, kids waffle). Service was top notch. Very busy outside but we sat in the less busy indoors at the back. We were all full at the end.

Wonderful brunch during our daughter’s 18th Birthday. Great service from Amelie. Thank you.

Lovely place by the riverside and very professional staff, especially Emilia. She is a lovely lady who always seems to be working hard and always ensure the highest level of customer satisfaction.

An idyllic little spot for breakfast next to the water! The staff were smiley and lovely, the prices felt really reasonable for what we got and the French toast was some of the best we’ve ever had! We were visiting London from Manchester, and fingers crossed if we move down south for work… this place will be our new local!

Very disappointed with crab maison starter. Had it as a main. Nothing like picture and description. Just a plain crab cake with some slices of mini cucumber on it. Not sure where the avocado was. Overpriced for what it was.

In love with this place , i had a wonderful breakfast , very quick service , pleasentable and well done plates .

We visited Cote few days ago and were impressed with the place that we decide to return again and we were not disappointed at all the food is excellent and the staff very polite and professional top notch and highly recommended.. 🔝we see you again soon

It was lovely, everyone loved the food, even though there was 40 of us the food arrived very quickly, we did a pre order a week prior to the event

Jack was fantastic! Top manager. Thoroughly recommend paying Cote a visit.

Just had a breakfast the service from the start was brilliant from waiting table to the breakfast service really enjoyed and Diago was very very professional and caring And the view of the river Thames which you do t get that very often from sitting in restaurants 😃

Just had brunch there and it was great. Diogo was so friendly and professional, recommend to all.

Had a lovely sunny brunch - lovely fresh food and the service was great . Caitlin was so attentive and really helpful . Recommend the mini desserts with a coffee ☕️

Lovely food and atmosphere although service was very slow

A second amazing experience with Côte, I can't rate the service highly enough! We were looked after very well by our attentive waiter Zek, who ensured that all our dietary requirements were catered to. He was very patient and went out of his way to make sure our dining experience was memorable which was complimented by the amazing food!

My friend and I went here on a lovely summer evening and the food was just incredible, always consistent and beautiful! There was a funny and charming waiter called Zac and he was just unbelievably helpful and always smiling! Makes the experiences a lot more enjoyable and wholesome. He deserves a raise! Shoutout to Zac! Simply amazing experience overall!

Caitlyn made us feel welcome from the moment we sat down. Was great at both making sure we were well attended to and provided added touches making sure our dogs had water and were in the shade. Food was great but the service was what made it such a good lunch.

The food is really good, I had steak and chicken liver parfait.

Really good service, as ever. Lovely location, and attentive staff. Goran was a star - helpful and friendly :)

Food came out so quick and was lovely. Thanks Caitlin :)

Perfect spot for brunch on a sunny (or even rainy) weekend. Food is absolutely delicious and our server (Caitlyn) was friendly and helpful. (Ordered French toast, granola & yoghurt, cappuccino and sunrise juice.)

I was not expecting food to be this good it was amazing and great location. Prices are reasonably good too.

Amazing friendly staff and very welcoming! We had the delicious brunch menu which was great value for money!! Can’t wait to visit again

We have had the cote at home now for a good few occasions and was lovely to visit the restaurant and taste the lovely food by the pros , amazing food with first class service thankyou Kingston cote team and Cote , we really loved our meal

Lovely meal and was served by Zeke who was attentive and polite.

thoroughly enjoyed my experience. zak was a great help and his service was outstanding. will definitely be visiting again!

I've visited this place twice. The first time was for brunch, and I had a great experience. The service was excellent, and I really enjoyed the French toast I ordered. However, when I returned for lunch with colleagues, I was disappointed. The burger I ordered was chewy and had an unpleasant smell, and the fries were overly greasy. Despite this, the staff were still friendly and professional, just like before.

A lovely light restaurant with great staff who were attentive but not intrusive even though we dined Saturday at lunch time. The food was really lovely.

Always a solid choice whether dining for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Diogo our waiter was also super friendly and efficient, thought it was important to mention amazing customer service too!

Good service, normal food Space too tight for the quality intended or at least sold

Jack was amazing. I wasn’t well during our visit so had to leave. My partner stayed and Jack made sure she had everything and also felt incredibly safe. Thank you again

What a lovely place to have lunch. Nicely set up at the Thames overlooking the river from a cosy terrace aera in front of the restaurant or within the subtly styled room inside. The service was very good, especially taking care of the food requirements of each person and keeping up with necessary orders for a drink inbetween courses or else. The food is perfekt and we will surely come back here. Thank you for the very comfortable stay!

A disappointment. Shown to our table and had to navigate food (chips) on the floor between our and the adjacent table (and had to ask the waiter to clean it up as he didn’t notice) then had to return my first glass of wine due to dirty glass, then had to wait several minutes to get the waiters attention to settle our bill. Service thus was less than satisfactory. Menu selection was good and enjoyed the food. Cashless only for payment is irritating. Automatic addition of 10% service charge is deplorable given the earlier comments as it should have been removed automatically.

Recently had refurb. Nice inside

My Mum's favourite restaurant. They do a nice pork loin. Food always good and the decor and atmosphere is high end.

Always a pleasant atmosphere and delicious food when I visit. Would recommend

I went with my family and it was nice. We enjoyed the food
