The best restaurants serving British food in Stone Dartford South East

i ordered a hot chocolate and when it arrived it was given too me in a dirty cup. when we took it back and said the cup was dirty, the chef replied “it’s clean it’s clean” without even looking at the cup, when there was a visible mayonnaise stain on the tip of the cup and then proceeded to complain because they had too make a new one. when ordering our food the waiter took no notice into what we was saying and we had too repeat multiple times. when the food arrived it was not nice. the baguette came with half an egg and one piece of bacon. the scrambled egg had no taste and was very watery. while the chef was cooking the food him and the waiter was eating food then mid cooking they went outside too smoke while having the door wide open resulting too cigarette smoke being blown into the cafe. since the previous chef this place has gone downhill completely and the food has become disgusting. the rudeness of the waiter and the chef was just shocking. the food and service has gotten bad. such a shame since it was a nice place before.

Greg is a credit to the team at Côte he always makes me feel welcome and is very attentive

Great service from our server (Dominic) and the seafood platter is must.

Very friendly staff, good was delish! It took a while for someone to take my order but it is very busy and the Christmas weekend, so can't blame them!! Thank you Gurjeet for the lovely smile! I would come here again

In reply to The Bull's reply: We were having a family meet-up and chose The Bull as a halfway point for all of the family. They accommodated us very well when making the booking. There were 8 adults and all of the food came out at the same time, which was great, but it was obvious that some of the food had been left on a side for a period of time as the chips were lukewarm at best. The steaks were a little bit overdone for the liking of the steak eaters. One of the burgers wasn't edible. Two members of the party were ill the following day, which may or may not have anything to do with The Bull, but they did have the same meal. When asked at the bar how the food was, I replied "It was alright" and left it at that, but it was obvious the barmaid was then upset by my response. I told her the chips were all lukewarm and a burger wasn't edible. She didn't follow that up with any response. Overall it was a nice meeting place for the family, and the first time we've been there, but we'll probably find somewhere else in the area next time.

Very affordable, value for money. Quiet neighbourhood. Breakfast was great.

Perfectly functional venue selling reasonable snacks (not the cheapest) but traffic seem efficient and organised. Clean and serviceable.
