Food Scene
Highly recommend Côte Brasserie, located towards the top of Winchester High Street near the Westgate Museum. A weekday lunch and early evening menu is on offer Monday to Friday 12 pm - 7 pm, choose either 2 courses for £10,95 or 3 courses for £12,95. If you are able to get a table by the window on the raised part of the restaurant it is an added bonus! Great atmosphere and fab selection of food and drink, yet to be disappointed with the standard of service.
