Absolutely fabulous lunch. Place is cute on the outside but doesn't look particularly special. Ate in the back room and loved loved it! Sausages with lentils were outstanding. Pam fried chicken also outstanding. Will definitely come back the next trip to Edinburgh! read more

Incredible brunch experience here! I had the most delicious, very fresh juice and a croque monsieur. The sandwich was incredible. My husband had the granola bowl which was quite small and really more of a side than a breakfast item. The service was good and the interior was gorgeous! read more

Service was very mixed. Slow, had to ask for water, then had to ask for water glasses. Calamari tasted like they were prepackaged. And the floor vibrated constantly because of an overpowered air conditioner read more

Everything about Côte was perfect. The friendly staff and craft drinks were top notch. The food was excellent.

This place was AMAZING! The best breakfast we had in Edinburgh. The service was outstanding, the food came out quickly and wow it was tasty, and the interior was so cute. I wish I had tried it earlier in the trip so we could have gone back again! We had a reservation but it wasn't too busy. 10/10 would return here. read more

We started with the asparagus app. I thought the breading was too thick but my wife liked it. I had a fish stew. It was tomato based and included mussels, shrimp, and fish. The fish were all well cooked and the dish was tasty. My wife had the salmon and béarnaise. The salmon had been hammered and was dry and tough and the béarnaise was thick and separated. Cote did notice that my wife ate almost nothing of her main and comped dessert. Dessert was a strawberry-rhubarb mess. This was very tasty, I took the photo after we were done. read more

I didn't realize before my trip how connected Edinburgh is with France. As it turns out, there are a number of amazing French restaurants in Edinburgh. Cote's dinner selection was amazing with a perfect mix of higher end meals and comfort food. The desserts were tasty without being too rich. The service was fantastic and I can't wait to come back and try Cote again! read more

This is an amazing spot for brunch! The aesthetic, service and food are all so lovely. It was easy to get in, the service was very quick, and the food was mouth watering! My favorite brunch spot in Edinburgh so far! read more

Excellent food and service! It was a great experience overall. I definitely recommend checking this place out while in Edinburgh!

Cute place. We had breakfast. The staff was on top of needs, food was good, and it was full of locals which says a lot.

We came for breakfast today and it was perfect! I had the eggs Benedict Florentine and my husband had the fully cooked breakfast special that includes a juice and a hot drink for about 10.95gbp. Both meals were delicious! My eggs Benedict were soft and delicate and the sautéed spinach added the most excellent savory flavor! We also had a mocha and a cafe creme. The mocha was far superior to the cafe creme. Very friendly staff and cozy interior. Great location...perfect way to start a day of sightseeing! read more

Four of us came in on a Saturday evening, the place was empty but we were told they were fully booked. Not offered a waitlist. Manager (?) was rude about it. Popped in an hour later just to see and it was still empty.... Thought those days were past this city read more

Even though this is considered a "chain" it was an amazing meal. We got there before 7om and had there 3 courses for 14 pounds . My appetizer was langoustines popcorn style with a delicious sauce. My friend had the artichoke hearts to die for. For the entrees I had the most delicious sea bass with mash and fennel salad . My friend had a really tasty steak frites . Then the deserts ! Chocolate mousse and chocolate pot - wonderful . To top it all of, delicious full bodied red for 22 pounds. Service was terrific ! read more

Fabulous food from the charcuterie board to the salmon to the Breton Seafood Stew to the Salad Nicoise, everything was top notch. The service was impeccable and friendly (Euan). The desserts (crème caramel and chocolate mouse) too delicious to pass up! Don't forget to start with the elder flower cocktail. Come one, come all bring a friend! read more

During our visit to Edinburgh we had breakfast twice at Cote Brasserie. I had the Crepe Complete both times because it was so delicious. The restaurant is lovely, the staff are friendly, and the location in New Town was great- within walking distance of our hotel and many others. I definitely recommend Cote Brasserie. read more

Good food. Nice room. Very good service. Not overly formal. Classic French with everything well executed. Table d'hôte menu available. Would definitely return. Recommended. read more

Please do not miss Côte while in Edinburgh. The food was amazing and the staff charming. There with a girlfriend and we can not say enough good things. Started with flatbread and cheese (simplified description), then the risotto and the veal, and DO NOT FORGET the Creme Caramel. Suggested wine selections were fantastic. The wait staff was knowledgeable, helpful, and patient; 5 stars just for them. Will return soon (tomorrow). Remember, the Creme Caramel. read more

obviously I haven't been to every breakfast place in the UK but I'd imagine it's hard to beat the service and value at Cote. I've been to many with fancy schmancy ingredients and etc but the service and food you get at Cote for 10 freakin pounds BLOWS me away. also I had no clue till later it was a chain but I dont get that feel at all! you can get a few different breakfasts include a fill e flush breakfast PLUS hot drink, a juice, and filtered water all for €10. however what blows me away is the level of service at the various locations ive been to. its very applicated but approachable. j truly feel the experience and food allow it to charge 1.5x more in my opinion. you may think it's questionable food for that price but it's actually legit. they put chives in the eggs and even the butter is SOFT not frozen. also I get a croissant now and they warm it up which is like crack. it's so good by itself. i love this place and could only imagine a place like the four seasons London could beat but overall value I doubt it can be beat. JEANS: OK by far ORDER: at table read more

Okay so this is part of a chain but it at least has a bit of style about it, as well as providing good quality French food with good service. The fact that its three courses for £13.95 menu lasts until 19:00 also makes it worth a visit after work without having to rush to get in before 17:00. read more

Food and service were great. Such a deal with the breakfast with hot and cold drinks! It was a great way to spend my last morning on holiday in Scotland read more

Good food, Warm Ambience, slow food service and the serving team needs improvement. One of their servers named JUSTINE is racist and won't take our orders even though she was stationed to our table. Our family arrived at 6:20pm but our food (starters)was served 7:05pm, we've notified beforehand that we were to see the ballet at 7:30pm. read more

Staying on Thistle street and being a total Francophile , we were thrilled to see 4 french restaurants within 1 block. We have now tried two, the others being booked. You can guess from this review that Cote was one of them. I am completely genuine when I say it is one of the best meals I have had. We came two nights in a row. Me: French onion soup. -perfect ; salmon - absolutely perfect (try cooking salmon and avoiding it being completely dry); order of french fries shared with husband - perfect Husband: French onion soup; yesterday - linguini with seafood - perfect consistency ; today - prime rib no bone (perfect). His birthday, so we got crème brule - perfect. Need I say more? I am not sure we can stay away tomorrow - it is that good. Oh, by the way, the service is impeccable. I am not sure I would expect this if I came at the highest season, August. Go here, you ill not regret it. read more

Good coffee, great service. Delicious breakfast! I had the vegetarian breakfast, my mom had the Benedict Florentine and my sister had the breakfast crepe. We would definitely come here again. read more

After settling in to our AirBnB on Thistle Street, my wife & I started strolling the neighborhood for a place to eat an early-ish dinner on Saturday night when we came across This restaurant. It was not yet busy, which worked for us since we had no reservations. We were greeted promptly and taken to a table towards the rear of the restaurant. The list of wines revealed nothing that we were familiar with, so our waiter suggested a bottle of Viognier that we took. It was a good wine for us...not too dry. We also ordered bread & butter. The bread was a warm, soft sourdough that was excellent. My wife ordered the chicken with garlic butter and a side of creamed spinach. I had some of the chicken and found it to be quite tasty even without the garlic butter, which added a very good complimentary taste. The creamed spinach was quite different with a bit of Pernod added (if I remember correctly). It was very unique. I had the fish parmentier. It was very good, although the portion seemed to be on the small side. The dish had been baked in the oven to finish it giving the potatoes a nice golden color that was appealing. We had the crepe grand marnier for dessert. It was very good. Our waiter lit the grand marnier when he served it, which was a neat presentation. Overall, the service was good. Our waiter was attentive without being overbearing, which enabled us to have some good long conversations. The ambiance was welcoming...soft music in the background, and not too loud. When we left the restaurant, it was very crowded and much louder, but not to the point where we had to shout to hear each other. read more

Not a bad little place. Very clean and organized, plus decently priced but the food didn't wow me and the server, while very professional, also seemed a little distant. It wasn't a bad experience but with so many other options I probably wouldn't go a second time. read more

This is a cute little chain place. I had the special August menu consisting cod goujons (croquets), steak frites and a peach crumble dessert. The starter was pretty much tasteless. The steak was thin and tough. I finished only half of it. The fries were very good. Service was a bit slow and confused. The server didn't notice, or didn't care that I ate only half of the steak. He forgot to serve the dessert. By the time we got his attention, we had to leave. It may have been fantastic, but I'll never know. I won't go back even though I'm staying across the street. read more

This would be my third visit to this branch of Cote and, by far and away, the most disappointing. The place, decor and food were top notch as on previous visits. However, on this occasion, the service was a complete letdown. Our server seemed to have very little interest in attending to us. When our main courses arrived, she appeared as we were cleaning our plates, to ask if our food was "ok". We had been trying to hunt her down to order another glass of wine to go with our meal. She then handed us dessert menus, we chose and then she did not return! I eventually went to the front and requested the bill, mentioning that we would have a dessert on our next visit.....totally oblivious to our requests. As I said, everything else was superb but this lassie really did spoil our whole experience. Will I give this restaurant another try? With all the HUNDREDS of excellent eateries in Edinburgh, I think it highly unlikely. Carolyn Goldman read more

Newly opened. Tired of pub food we stopped by for an early dinner. Scored a deal with 2 courses for prix fixed price. Choices from regular menu were outstanding and not too expensive including the duck Outstanding food, personable service. Excellent selections of wines by the glass and finished with a bit of whisky as our closer. Highly recommended great food for reasonable price read more
