About

Cote Brasserie Norwich, a fine restaurant. The city truly is a preservation of history, as if it were in a snow globe, it’s romantic as anything, with its cobbled streets, impressive cathedral, and medieval architecture. Norman influence is clear on the city, with the castle being the result of Norman construction, while the city is quintessentially British, some of that charm is French. This no less true in the case of Cote Brasserie Norwich, which has stood for quality and authentic Gallic cuisine – to the point of near obsession.

The décor is elegant and chic: expect marble tables, light walls adorned with mirrors, plenty of light hanging from metal ceiling fixtures giving a pleasant (but not obtrusive) feel to the interior of the restaurant. The appearance of a Parisian bistro is present, but it doesn’t leave you requiring reassurance you’re not suddenly in France, instead a gentle Parisian atmosphere is created, accenting your experience.

At Cote Brasserie Norwich, an aroma of white wine sauce hangs pleasantly in the air. Arresting your senses, then occupying your attention. Chances are this is the work of the cook responsible for preparing the moules, which you can order with chips (frites) or warm bread to soak up the delightful sauce. Three options are available: the moules provencales, which come in the before-referenced white wine and parsley sauce, with chilli tomato and thyme; the moules Normandes, parsley crème fraiche and cider sauce with leek and smoked lardons; or moules a crème, an oh-so-simple yet delicious white wine, cream, and shallot sauce. Introducing mussels to these new environments for your pleasure really brings out the best in them, steaming and inviting, a smile will surely prevail.

The menu is wide and varied, this is only a snapshot of meals. The dishes here are authentically French but have their home in British appetites. A meal at Cote Brasserie Norwich is sure to have you shouting, “let’s be having you!” halfway through the meal.

Staff always cheerful and attentive. Good Staff/customer interaction. Food excellent, we have never been disappointed. 

Our restaurant of choice when in Norwich, which is every 2 to 3 months when we go to the local theatre.

Not quite up to the usual standard ??

Very slow service. Disapponting meal - crispy duck was soggy and definitely not crispy, salad was just watercress, crab starter very tastless and steak was quite tough. Kir Royale poor - not much creme de cassis and it tasted like it had come from an old open bottle. The wine (St Chinian) was very good however. We love Cote but not up to your usual standard this time, sorry!
