Côte Barnes 21 Station Road, London SW13 0LF

"Food was generally good. Avocado on my toast was a small portion but everyone’s poached eggs were lovely. Service good but four pots of tea were served with no lids! This meant it went cold very quickly. Obviously short staffed as I had to find the server to get more water."

"We went to Côte for a family lunch. The food was amazing- I ordered steak with watercress and frites, it was delicious. The desserts were amazing too. All the food was very well-presented and arrived quickly. Additionally, the service there is amazing- we had great staff throughout the trip. We enjoyed the ambiance as well- the restaurant has good views of Barnes Pond from the wide windows. Overall definitely recommended"

"Excellent child friendly atmosphere during the day. My small son is visually impaired and finds strong sunlight disturbing, and the waiter moved the whole group to a shaded tabled to help him. Food os excellent, and the manager attentive to a happy team. Probably the best restaurant in the area."

"I visited Côte Barnes for my birthday dinner. The staff were very attentive from the start, offering educated opinions on the food and wines. The food was amazing, flavorful and well-presented. We had one issue with food but the staff were so polite about it and fixed the problem promptly that we wouldn’t fault them for it, mistakes happen. The way they reacted completely resolved it. The atmosphere of this restaurant is great and this place is the perfect balance of both quality food, but also affordable prices. I want to say a special thanks to the waitress April who served us. She was polite, perceptive and professional, and even overhead it was my birthday so arranged a free desert to be brought out to me whilst singing happy birthday. Honestly, my birthday evening was great thanks to this meal out, so thank you April and also thank you to the team at Côte Barnes!"

"Lovely addition to the area. I’ve been very impressed with the quality of food here. My partner has found that ingredients he has previously disliked, he now enjoys thanks to the dishes here. We’ve had to wait quite a while recently until we finally got to order our food, but that was a one off so far. Being from the South of France, it’s nice to have a french restaurant 2 mins from our home. The close location to the pond doesn’t just make for a lovely after meal walk, but also gave us the opportunity to see a swam family wanting to make dinner plans !"
