dinner at 5PM for 6 before a show. starters, drinks and main courses. £345 so just under £60 per person. I have eaten in Cote a lot over the years and its always dependable for service, quality and ambience. The staff were as ever very good. The food came out in good time and presentation was very pleasing. Well labeled for Gluten Free. Two main courses went back to the kitchen as they were not at the right temperature. Overall, the comments were positive, although I thought just slightly under par. My medium rare Tuna steak niçoise salad though was very good, with extra egg and anchovies. Cote will always be a go to for me, however this was a 3 star and not 4 star this time due to the slighly below par food overall.

We were a large party of 17, celebrating our parents 50th wedding anniversary with a wonderful meal at Cote Bournemouth. Shubham contacted me in the lead up to the booking to arrange for us to pre-order our food to ensure we didn't have a long wait time on the evening. On the evening we had a very warm welcome, we were given a lovely table in our own area and the staff had put a banner on the table for the celebration. The food was hot and delicious across all meals (I had the beef bourginon ) and it all came out very quickly, especially as we were a very large group! The teenagers in our party fully enjoyed the free flow frites on offer!! We had one gluten free member of our party and the menu was clearly marked and there were great choices on offer. The staff labelled the food clearly for her and she was able to relax and enjoy the meal. We felt thoroughly well looked after throughout the night by Shubham and the team. Shubham arranged individual receipts for each of our families which made splitting the bill and using our app rewards really straight forward. We can't thank you enough for making the evening so enjoyable and special for my parents and us all! We would highly recommend the restaurant and all the staff, particularly Shubham for making it a really memorable evening. Thanks again! We hope to return when we are next staying in the area!
