Pre fixe meal very good and good value. Service was good considering that even on a Friday lunchtime the restaurant was full.

This was a birthday celebration with friends. The whole experience was excellent and we all thoroughly enjoyed the food, drinks and service. I had received a voucher for a free bottle of fizz which was served as soon as we sat down without me needing to ask. I have one member of my party who can't drink and two drivers but rather than them missing out the waiter brought them non alcoholic cocktails on the house which was a nice touch. I have notice that the price has crept up which is inevitable i suppose

We really enjoy the food at Cote and have visited many times. The staff are friendly and welcoming, providing a good service. The restaurant is clean and attractive. We always ask for the set menu, which is reasonably priced and has a great selection of dishes. Recently, 3 of us went, and we had 3 glasses of wine. 2 people had 2x courses (sea bass/crepe and chocolate mousse) 1 person 3 courses - fishcake, steak, plums. The total, including service charge, was £90. It's not cheap but the food was excellent. The restaurant was busy, and the atmosphere was chatty, not too loud. We hadn't pre booked, and it was a Thursday, but it may be wise for the weekend. There's a pay and display car park next to the restaurant. A good place to visit.

I recently dined at Cote Restaurant in Marlow and had a wonderful experience. The salad was fresh and tasted lovely, and there was a good selection of wine. The atmosphere of the restaurant was lovely, with a warm and inviting ambiance. I particularly enjoyed sitting outside, it was very relaxing. The staff were friendly and attentive, ensuring that every aspect of the meal was enjoyable. Overall, it was a delightful experience, and I look forward to returning.

On the day, the food was fabulous, the service was incredible (Ruby, you are a star!) and the atmosphere was so relaxed because everything went to plan. Thank you so much, I will recommend you over and over.

I had Sunday lunch with my wife at this restaurant in Marlow, after an enjoyable morning browsing through the shops and the park in this lovely town. The Cote restaurant looks attractive with a relaxing environment. Starters were lovely but I found a tall blonde hair (not mine I am bald and my head is shaven) on top of the main course - Beef Bourgogne. I commented about this to the server who immediately offered to take it back to the kitchen and replace the dish. I think there are two ways to look at this situation: the first is the positive outlook - everyone makes mistakes, it’s just a hair, it could happen everywhere. The second way of looking at it is to think that this indicates that the kitchen staff do not wear caps or hair nets, and possibly there may be other kitchen failings. Do the kitchen staff wash their hands, do they observe sanitary procedures? Would the server take the dish into the kitchen and return the same dish a few minutes later? I can never have answers to these questions so we skipped desert and coffee, paid the bill and left.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at a restaurant managed by Dani, and I must say, the experience was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we walked in, Dani's attention to detail and commitment to providing top-notch service were evident. He went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and satisfaction, making us feel truly valued as customers. What stood out most, however, was the quality of the food, particularly the meat. It was absolutely delicious, cooked to perfection, and showcased the chef's skill and the high-quality ingredients used. Dani's professionalism and the outstanding dining experience he offers make this restaurant a must-visit. Kudos to Dani for making our evening so memorable!

Had an excellent meal last night, Cote being my favourite place to eat. Had Confit Pork Belly which was amazing, the top was lovely and crisp, the pork just fell apart and tasted absolutely wonderful. The restaurant staff were extremely helpful and made me feel very welcome. They made sure I sat down comfortably and put my crutches at the side of me but safely out of the way.

For some reason the food was a lot better presented and tasted a lot better than other Cotes we have visited in other areas! Both of us had our favourite slow roasted belly pork which was excellent.

This was a wonderful find on a cold New Year's Day. We had researched a nearby dog friendly venue but had found that it was closed. We popped in on the off chance and asked if we could bring our dog in with us and thankfully we were allowed as it wasn't busy and there was a table tucked away from the main area which was full of diners. We had a vegan and a veggie breakfast and ordered a sausage for Wellington. The food was perfec and came quickly after our order. My coffee tasted so good that I had to have another. Most notable though was the service. Our waitress took time to converse with us and made us feel extremely welcome. The manager also came over to ask if we had everything we needed.

We have visited Cote Marlow on several occasions and had a great experience. I booked well in advance for my Husband's birthday yesterday but the table for two overlooking the garden requested wasn't available and we were sat in the middle of an extremely busy and noisy restaurant at a table for four from which two place settings had to be removed. We were hurried throughout with courses arriving in quick succession rather like a conveyor belt and it felt like the table was required for another party; I understand it is a busy season but the place felt rammed full and my husband's birthday wasn't the special occasion we hoped for. Disappointed.

After a bad experience at Côte Ealing earlier this year, I was not sure I wanted to give this chain another chance. I am so glad I decided to pay them a visit in Marlow. It was a world of difference from their useless branch in Ealing. The ambience was lovely, the food (Moules-frites: mussels with frites) was delicious, and the service top notch. Thanks to the folks in Marlow, I will continue to patronise Côte but not at Ealing.

We were already apprehensive about our stay at Danesfield House Hotel & Spa due to the lack of communication prior to arrival. We had called a month in advance to book a couples massage and were told this would be fine and that we would receive a call to confirm payment. However, no such call ever took place. After weeks of trying, leaving voicemails without anybody returning our calls, somebody finally answered, and, to our dismay, informed us that a couples massage was no longer available. This was very upsetting, given we had previously been told our booking had been confirmed and that we would receive a call to make a payment over the phone. The only option, now, was to book two individual massages - which was not honouring our original agreement. However, after reluctantly agreeing to this, we were then called the next day to be asked if we minded moving the timing of that appointment! Apparently they prefer to arrange everything so it suits them. We, the paying guests, were inconsequential it seems. Now to our stay. Upon arrival, we were due to receive a bottle of champagne as part of our package. However, we did not receive it. Instead, we had to request it the following day where it did finally accompany our dinner. Had we not pushed on this matter, that bottle of champagne would have gone elsewhere (as I suspect was always the plan). The room that we were given was adequate at best. Mindful that we had not selected to stay in one of the more luxurious rooms, I was still rather alarmed at the exposed wall plugs in the bathroom where the radiator was noticeably coming away from the wall. There was also paint peeling off of the window frame in the bedroom, and all of the complimentary biscuits to accompany the teas and coffees were completely crushed. The other issue was that we were woken between 5 and 6am during both mornings of our stay by very loud footsteps and noise coming from the area above our room. Again, I am mindful that we hadn't chosen the most luxurious room, but the entire proposition is a 'luxury break' as you will see from their marketing literature. This was not supposed to be a Travelodge experience. At the end of what was supposed to be a relaxing retreat, we were not in the mindset to complain, but upon reflection, we think you should know that it was a disappointing stay. There were a couple of members of staff who were helpful and lightened the experience, but on the whole the customer service was not on a par with the experience that is portrayed by their website. We gave our feedback to Danesfield who did offer a complimentary night's stay, however, we weren't able to take this offer up for a while due to work and life commitments. When I did finally get around to organising our return stay, a member of staff rather abruptly told me I couldn't have it anymore! Nevermind then. I'd have been less inclined to write this review had they honoured that arrangement, considering there was no expiration date accompanying that offer.

Very RUDE owner and manager. Please let us know when the pub changes owner as we won’t go back until then.
