Côte Blackheath brings the relaxed character of a French neighbourhood brasserie to Royal Parade. Close to Blackheath station and the open space of the common, the restaurant looks towards Greenwich Park and All Saints Church and provides a convenient stop for local diners and visitors.
The menu is built around familiar French flavours, with dishes such as French onion soup, steak frites, lamb ragù and crème brûlée. Seasonal choices and set menus add variety while keeping the cooking approachable for anything from a quick lunch to a leisurely evening meal.
Service begins with breakfast and continues through brunch, lunch and dinner, so the restaurant changes naturally with the time of day. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten free choices sit alongside a children’s menu, helping groups with different tastes and requirements dine together.
An outside area offers another place to settle in with coffee, wine or a full meal when the weather suits. The restaurant also welcomes birthdays, family gatherings, work events and meals before performances at nearby Blackheath Halls.
Address: 15–16 Royal Parade, Blackheath, London SE3 0TL, United Kingdom
