We chose this venue to celebrate our Xmas shop party with our dedicated volunteers. It was great upon entering to be shown to the small room on the left, which felt cosy and intimate. I did feel it was, a shame the table had no Xmas decorations. We selected our food with a few of us choosing from the early bird menu as most wanted to keep the cost down. The waitress was smiley, helpful & very efficient taking our orders. The food arrived, in good time, was hot, nicely presented & all orders were correct. The atmosphere was great & staff left us to celebrate our festive occasion. The only comment I would make was when the bill arrived and the volunteers naturally wanted to pay what they had personally had, the waitress agreed this would be simple to do, but it ended becoming rather complicated & she became flustered & confused. The manager was called who quickly tried to rectify the situation, but there still seemed confusion on the service charge, resulting in me being advised £90 was still outstanding, despite us all having paid & included service. It was eventually sorted but I did feel put a damper on the experience of Cote. Maybe in future for larger parties they could make this process a little simpler. All in all an enjoyable experience to start the festive season
