9. The Grouse and Ale

With the relaxed ambiance of an English country pub, an elegant menu made from local produce and plenty of room to breathe (and park) the Grouse & Ale is the perfect venue for a social occasion or an informal meeting/function that needs more than just bis

Visited with friends on a Monday evening and whilst quiet the service and food was excellent. A friendly welcome from Victoria and efficient knowledgeable service from her and Sabrina and Sean made the evening most enjoyable. We will be back!!!

We had a great value Travelzoo voucher for 2 courses and a glass of fizz. The setting is idyllic, the young staff are lovely and very efficient and the food is fabulous. As we walked in I saw the Thai menu and assumed it was only available on certain nights, so was very pleased to be given this menu as well as the standard one as it was included in the deal. The curry was very pleasingly hot (maybe too much for some people but perfect for me!). A great place, and I hope to return.

An elegant bar/restaurant located near the top of Marlow High St. With an equal emphasis on dining and drinking, there are 16 pump beers, an excellent wine list with many by the glass.The restaurant features a short but eclectic menu that will suit all ta

They have only been open a few months and we have eaten there twice already. I get the impression that they are slowly ramping up and being careful not too over book. Both meals were very good, slightly more expensive than an ordinary pub but not excessively so.Thanks Nicholas! You're absolutely right in that we are taking our time, looking at what our customers want and gently nudging our offer so that we can find our perfect niche in the Marlow market. Come back and see us anytime and many thanks for taking the time to review us.

The Dog and Badger has recently undertaken a refurbishment and has been restored to retain its charm and a new Oak framed space has been added to house the main bar and the new state-of-the art open kitchen with its wood-fired oven and charcoal grill. The

We have supported this establishment through all of its recent iterations - even had Xmas dinner there for the last two years - and have always been at least satisfied and oftimes more.This was our first visit in its current guise - initial impressions were positive (both ambiance and staff) although we were surprised at the prices of the a-la-carte menu. The D&B has tried before to match Marlow £ for £ and failed.Regardless, the 'specials' board seemed reasonable, from which I chose the 'steak burger' and chips.The chips were delicious but the rest was almost inedible. The burger was tough and, frankly, looked and tasted like a thick version of the cheapest supermarket product.However the worst surprise was the grit that accompanied the salad garnish - it was like chewing on fine sand.OK - we've all forgotten to wash the lettuce, however I did perhaps expect to receive more than 'we've never had any complaints before' from the young waitress and no more than a begrudging apology when I cornered the chef...the disadvantage of an open kitchenThe manager did appear once we had paid having 'heard something' and accepted my complaint and asked if 'there was anything he could do?' Too little too late.
4. The Royal Oak

CURRENTLY CLOSED DUE TO A FIRE From the banks of the Thames take the short trip up the winding hill to Bovingdon Green and the warm, wooden heart of award-winning The Royal Oak. Oak by name and oaken by nature - but not hard or austere: not a bit of it. B

Very disappointing- been going to the Royal Oak for decades and regrettably our recent visits show a distinct downturn in service and food quality.This evening service was painfully slow and the waitress displayed a âcouldnât care lessâ attitude. Either she had no training or no âpersonâ skills. It is rare that I do not leave a tip - but no tip here.Food ok, but poorly presented and way too many fries. Some items clearly reheated.I think Iâll find somewhere else for my Sunday evenings!
3. The Coach

On 3 occasions we tried to get in to the coach and found staff very pushy to get us to leave. First time they said no where to sit.( Lots of space to stand) Second time told us to go to another one of their pubs. And third time yes come in and would have to wait at least 90 minutes. We first arrived there at 18:15 and tried at third attempt 20:25. Very poor attitude from staff. We will never go back again. As lots of other pubs and restaurants with more to offer. Tom Kerridge very very poor
