Cote Brasserie Peterborough

Cote Brasserie Peterborough offers a cosy French bistro-style space set opposite the gothic Peterborough Cathedral on an airy wide-paved street. Whether you opt to sit in the marble topped bistro space or the front terrace this is the perfect place to enjoy a simple breakfast and lunch or to have a tasty quiet evening meal. The Cote Brasserie chain doesn’t deviate into the wildly inventive but it serves a large portion of comfort, and does so well.

The French-inspired all-day menu offers cosy dishes across the day. For breakfast you can select things like a breakfast rosti, croque croissants and eggs any style whilst the a la carte allows you to choose from a range of classic dishes like French onion soup and Poulet Breton, as well as a large cote de boeuf to share (22oz). You’ll find yourself torn between lots of tempting options, all of which can be paired with sides such as confit potatoes. The dessert menu is equally comforting with a range of indulgent options from chocolate macarons with strawberry ice cream to a French cheese plate served with candied walnuts, fruit and chutney to share.

To go with your relaxed meal, the Cote Brasserie drinks list offers a selection of good value wines that will suit all budgets and tastes, as well as Champagnes, aperitifs, beers, spirits and soft drinks. You even have the option of some post dinner cocktails, port or dessert wine. Cote does a very good job of providing a thematic menu that’s nevertheless broad enough to suit everyone and with a dedicated vegan and vegetarian menu as well as a gluten free menu and a children’s menu, Cote Brasserie Peterborough is a reliable and good choice for when you don’t want anything too complicated but want to enjoy a meal out.
