About

Cote Brasserie boasts simple and consistent French staples that will leave you feeling well fed, if perhaps less than inspired. Cote Brasserie retains enough of the heart of a traditional French brasserie to make one occasionally forget this is a national chain. The restaurant, set on a cobbled street amongst attractive townhouses, coated in satin black paint, boasts a cosy exterior that adds a certain seductiveness to the street and matches Edinburgh’s classic style. Once inside, you’ll find yourself in a smart bistro style setting on intimate marble tables.

It serves French classics; think French Onion Soup to start, followed by Moule Frites, Fish Parmentier or Boeuf Bourguignon. If that doesn’t take your fancy, instead choose from a range of grilled steaks and chicken that might be wise to get alongside one, or maybe all (no one would blame you), of their sauces, be it Bernaise or Peppercorn… perhaps some roquefort butter. Where Cote Brasserie enhances the bistro template most is in its vegetarian and Vegan menu that boasts a wide range of three course options including Celeriac Frites paired with rich lentils, a celeriac steak in place of its meaty ancestor. Cote Brasserie also boasts an extensive breakfast and brunch menu which sees French classics as well as English dishes with a French twist.

The drinks list is affordable and extensive, begin with a glass of Champagne or a Gin and Tonic with Elderflower Liqueur and follow with wine that ranges from £18-40 for a bottle (with a few exceptions if you plan to show off), as well as that which you would expect on a drinks list; beers, spirits and soft drinks including artisanal French lemonade. Finish the meal with a classic dessert like a praline filled Crêpe or Tarte Aux Pommes and sit back contentedly.

The restaurant offers a more concise pre-fixe menu, at a reduced price of £14.95 for two courses and £18.95 for three courses on weekdays. It may not blow you away but you’d be hard pressed to not find some enjoyment in the classic fare here.
