SquareMeal Review of Cote Brasserie Highgate

If you’re hoping for a quick breakfast after dropping your kids off, a quick lunch to break away from work or shopping, a family meal, or a dinner out with friends, then you could probably spend all day at Cote Brasserie Highgate. The restaurant is delightfully French, with its dark decor and zeal for culinary arts from across the channel, you’d find your life slowing down to a relaxing pace here.

There are dishes to satisfy many palates at Cote Brasserie Highgate. If seafood is your bag, then there are three Moules dishes to decide from, fish parmentier, and Breton fish stew: seabass, mussels, prawns, and squid delightfully prepared in white wine, tomato, and chilli. If you’re desirous of a hearty meat meal, you’re well catered for with grilled steaks and traditional French meals like beef bourguignon and confit pork belly. However, if you’ve only popped in for a bit of lunch, then light meals are a speciality of this restaurant, the salmon ratatouille is a dish worth attention, and the Ravioli Aux Chevre – goats cheese filled pasta – may strike your fancy.

Cote Brasserie Highgate is perfect for families, it doesn’t compromise on its gallic leanings for children, providing an authentic experience for your little ones as well. Croque Monsieur is perfect for a familiar lunch food if you don’t want to push the boat out too much, poulet Breton is perfect if you do.

There’s a decently sized wine list, all French of course, and a nice selection of beers, gins, and soft drinks. A catch-up with old friends would be well matched by a jovial, but not raucous, atmosphere at Cote Brasserie Highgate, especially with a few liquid accompaniments.

A little slice of France is served up at this restaurant, meaning food made with passion so you and your family or friends can have a nice, pleasant, and relaxing evening over a good meal.

Better than expected - we've paid a lot more for worse food than this.
Most of my reviews cover higher-end restaurants than Cote. But that doesn't mean that we don't use the high street chains, and whilst we get our share of disappointments there are times when we come away pleased with what we've eaten and how much ( or little ) we've paid . Yesterday at lunch was one of those days. For the second time in three days we were in Highgate with a limited time for lunch. The restaurant was quiet when we got there at 12; busier when we left an hour or so later. We both voted for traditional dishes part of the 2 courses/£11.50 lunch deal. I had tuna rillettes with sourdough and coq au vin ; my wife Hachis Parmentier ( cottage pie, frankly) and an apple crumble, with a glass of wine each , bread and coffee. With the best will in the world our expectations on entering weren't high- it was a choice born of convenience not quality. Well yesterday we were wrong. All 4 courses were at least pleasant and the coq au vin was very good. OK the portions are not massive but they were enough to get us to supper without hunger pangs ; the place and the service were pleasant. Good bread; butter you could actually spread. Our bill was £45. Good food and good value. Good stuff Cote!
