My wife and I have been going to Côte restaurants for years, maybe 12 years or more. Whenever we went to the theatre in London we would make a beeline to a Côte Brasserie booked online to have a meal before the show. On this occasion, we went to the Côte in Marlow, Buckinghamshire, to celebrate our 46th wedding anniversary. The staff were absolutely fabulous, very friendly, welcoming and efficient! No fault there! What has become clear to me from our last 2 or 3 visits is that the company is no longer providing the quality of food that I fell in love with 12 years ago. The founders of Côte were Richard Caring, Andy Bassadone, Chris Benians and Nick Fiddler in Wimbledon, and they went to great lengths to source the raw materials for their restaurants. Sadly things have changed. Since Covid (2020 and 2021) and the takeover by an investment company (Partners Group) the lack of attention to detail has led to a noticeable decline in the food. For the £120 bill (2 mains, 2 desserts and a £32 bottle of wine) it was average, My wife and I no longer regard Côte as our 'go-to' restaurant. The staff are the one thing that remains excellent!
