After a long walk, there are few things better than sitting down with your family for a pleasant meal with comfortable surroundings. This is exactly what is offered at Cote Brasserie Hayward Heath. Located on the Broadway – the thriving gastronomic hub of the town – Cote Brasserie is ideally located for an easy journey for the whole family, to enjoy a nice, relaxing, French meal with a gentle ambience.
The restaurant is furnished with mainly wooden tables and chairs, partitioned to ensure your table is offered space to express themselves with a modicum of privacy. There’s outdoor seating, separated from the street by a little bit of boxed garden, with a good view of the classic building the restaurant is housed in.
Cote Brasserie Hayward Heath celebrates its West Sussex location, and this is made clear by the menu’s emphasis on seafood. It specialises in Moules (or mussels to the anglophonic purists) which can be prepared in sauteed leeks with a creme fraiche and Normandy cider sauce, or a white wine sauce with tomato, chilli, and parsley, or even a white wine cream and shallot sauce. There are other seafood options, but for those who prefer land-based meals, you are well catered for with dishes like lamb loin chops and a choice of steaks.
Dinner isn’t all that’s offered though, Cote Brasserie Hayward Heath has made a name for itself with high quality breakfasts from 9am until noon, and brunch from 10am-2pm on weekends. This allows the restaurant to showcase its expertise in the poached egg, with eggs benedict, royale, Florentine, and avocado all starring alongside cooked breakfasts and French sandwiches.
The restaurant is vegan and vegetarian friendly, wheelchair accessible, and caters for kids with its ‘petit menu’, providing kid-friendly versions of authentically French dishes. All-in-all, Cote Brasserie Hayward Heath is well geared up for families, friends, and social get-togethers to have a gentle, yet satisfying meal out.
