Food was very nice, did take a bit of time for arrival, after main course, didn't really see any staff about and certainly no one came up and asked if we were ready for dessert, so we paid and got an ice cream from the ice cream parlour on the high Street.

I had fillet steak which was gorgeous and asked for a red wine sauce which wasn’t on the menu but was delicious. My partner had the burger which was very disappointing and was just like a frozen Birdseye burger.

Family lunch in their rear restaurant area. Smart pub with reasonable menu and drinks choices. Everyone was happy with their food, and their ability to handle a couple of dietary requirements. Only grumble was the service was a little slow considering how quiet it was.

Nice staff but food is drastically overpriced for the average quality. Drinks are also super pricey - more expensive than many central London pubs. £7.50 for an ipa. Used to be a great local spot. Now it’s an expensive tourist trap with few local patrons.

Enjoyed the Chequers. The room was quite nice not exactly the Waldorf but perfectly comfortable. Oddly lacking a luggage rack. My room overlooked the high street but quieted down nicely in the late evening. Staff was super helpful and the breakfast was good.

We had a reservation for today which I made it over the phone. When I arrived there wasn’t any reservation under my name. The staff just say sorry we can’t do anything and suggested to go despite that I told them we came from away and we were with 2 babies under 1y and obviously it wasn’t our fault and last minute it’s extremely difficult to find something else. The staff didn’t do even the bare minimum to try to accommodate us in the walk in area as clearly wasn’t our fault. Very bad customer experience and definitely I don’t recommend it to anyone.

Stayed for one night in a King Room. The room was nicely laid out bed was comfortable and once we had put the radiator on it became nice and warm. The bathroom is big and products are lovely. They have a huge roll top bath which we enjoyed. Breakfast delicious. Staff lovely and accommodating - parking is down the side street in a little car park with limited spaces which are slightly small but the members of staff moved his car so we could fit the too large hire car we had in safely.

Only slight let down was three of the dessert options weren’t available, but I’m sure that just shows that they’re great too😂

We stayed the night here and had breakfast the next morning room 6 was lovely until the fan for the kitchen kicked in for evening meals it shook the table and chair it was that noisy when I went down to ask what it was the manager told one of the staff it was the extractor fan in the kitchen it finally stopped at 8.50 pm got to say the bed was comfy and we were looking forward to a bit of a lie in but at 7.20 am it started again thought the manager might have had the good grace to speak to me about it would stay again but not in room 6

lovely pub and the churchill’s tap is brilliant. I would not recommend this for food or to stay. The chefs family treat it like a crèche. Kids walk in and out of the kitchen during service - who knows what they do to the food. I am surprised with the behaviour we saw it’s got a hygiene licence. It is a truly a shame that such a lovely place on marlow’s high street is let down by its own chef and his ill behaved children. Maybe we went when the day his baby sitter cancelled, even if that was the case, they shouldn’t be in and out the kitchen willy nilly - i don’t typically bring kids to work and i would assume you wouldn’t either.

Pre-booked this restaurant for lunch after a journey of several hundred miles. After booking I’d emailed to request a window seat (if available)and mentioned it was for our anniversary treat. On arrival nobody seemed interested in us at all. 3 members of staff ignored us whilst playing with a customers dog. Another staff member was overheard to say, to another, that he was “trying to avoid customers”! We mentioned our booking, once someone took notice of us and the staff member shrugged and told us a table number. Totally disinterested in us as customers - we left without trying the food. First impressions count I’m afraid!

We walked in and weren’t greeted for around 5 minutes, we then asked if we could order some breakfast at 10:45 AM, which the waitress replied ‘not sure, you only have 15 minutes’ even though the menus outside stated breakfast was served until 11:30. We then went back outside to decide what we wanted to order, and came back in and again weren’t greeted for a while, it seemed the staff were too busy wanting to chat as it was dead empty and no one else was there to be served. She then came round to the bar and took our order, I asked for a coffee and a pint of water with ice and lemon and then ordered some food. We paid and then the drinks arrived shortly outside which my coffee was then spilt all over the edge and then no water. 20 minutes later our breakfast arrived, missing half of the food and was given no cutlery which we had to then ask for. None of the staff seemed to check and ask how the food and drinks were and when giving us our drinks or food - they didn’t even speak just slammed them down on the table. Very poor experience which is a shame as Marlow is such a lovely area. I would avoid this place and check out the other pubs that I’m sure have staff that are willing to serve you and not make it seem like a hassle when customers walk in. Will not be returning.

Recommended by our front of house hotel employee. We had intended to go to the grill restaurant opposite, so thought we would scout this place and have a drink before hand. The location has a small outdoor seating outside on the street which was busy and the internal seating too in the bar area, was busy. We bought some drinks and shared a table with a random couple. Scanning the menu, it had very similar items which we had pencilled in for earring that evening. We could see the restaurant had spare seating and liked the vibe and decor so decided to try here. We ordered cocktails as a pre drink, intending to eat slowly. The cocktails were house specials and whilst tasting fresh, lacked the cocktail pizazz you would like in a cocktail. Pate and bread for starters had a lovely taste and was fresh. We went with the Cote de Boeuf M-Rare and was presented well and cooked perfectly. Having finished food the main bar had got busy and a live band were playing to which we stayed on to enjoy. Great decor, good vibes, great food and well priced

Popped in for lunch having been attracted by the fact that it is a Brakspear establishment. Hadn’t reserved a table but there were tables in the bar, where food could be served. Enjoyed a lovely pint of Gravity. The food itself was fairly average, I opted for the Wagyu burger. It lacked seasoning and the texture reflected the fact that it was cooked to the well side of medium. The former may reflect a desire to let the beef speak for itself and the latter reflect zelous interpreation of health & safetly guidelines; the result however was uninspiring. My wife was complemtary about her meal (enough to say a larger portion would have been nice) but felt her white wine was insufficiently chilled. Staff were pleasant throughout.

The experience was so so disappointing because the food was actually very nice and the service good . But to eat here is only acceptable to people that don’t mind having other peoples dogs in a restaurant where are you trying to eat your food and yapping barking and making a complete and total nuisance of itself to people trying to enjoy their meal and also making a real nuisance of itself to anybody that passes by. I feel this is a huge mistake as restaurants are not a place for dogs to be lying around on the floor or running around getting in peoples way and it ruined the entire experience for us ….therefore we shall never ever return again as I believe this is a big mistake on the part of the owners of the checkers.

Lovely pub, gorgeous features in both the bar and in the room. Friendly staff, impeccably clean room with basic amenities, but in these times, we were more than satisfied. We were given a bag of “goodies” upon check in, which had a sanitized remote control, tea/coffee for the room, and breakfast menu and basic information on a sheet of paper. Perhaps I would suggest adding the bathrooms amenities to this bag? We found that one of the items was a well worn box of sewing kit, emery board etc, certainly not newly places there for our stay. Very comfy bed, and nice temperature in room too. Loads of lamps, mirrors and sockets too which I liked for when getting ready! Breakfast was excellent too! Perfect location in the centre of town, but no serious traffic noise, and we slept really well.

I booked and I must say the booking lady was delightful! I requested a window table and said I would have dogs and she assured me that she would tell the pub and I also said it was for my friends birthday! On the day I arrive 15 mins early and I walk in front entrance but got imminently told off for entering wrong entrance I apologise he then said to go and check in so I go to area I was directed to and had to wait and wait then same man (think manager) came up and said you need to sign for Covid I try to interrupt to tell him I’d booked and all details are already with you! I see I’m the only booking for the afternoon! I said I booked table by the window but people are on it! I look around to realise no table was reserved for us! He said sorry can’t book specific tables sit were you want and left me it’s now table service only so I sit there and I sit, no one even acknowledged me let alone got me a drink I really wanted to order wine before birthday girl arrived so I saw a girl serving other table so when she finished I shouted to her to get some attention (hate doing that!) I got a very dirty look off her so I said sorry are you just serving food as I’d like a drink if you can ask someone, she said no I serve drinks too what do you want?? I asked for bottle of Chardonnay she goes off still no smile or any form of warmth. Then returned to say we’ve no Chardonnay no regret or sorry in tone of voice at all. I said that’s enough I’m going and she said well it’s hard with Covid! And I looked around the place was pretty empty so I walked out I told my friends and they’ve all had similar experiences so it’s not a lone experience I’m afraid! Used to be such a great pub! :(

My friends and I visited the Chequers for a meal on the 4th September. From start to finish we had an awful experience. We had eaten there in the past a few times and had good meals, so we are very disappointed in the standard of service and food quality we received. We had booked a table a week in advance, and when we arrived, the manager instantly seemed disgruntled. He didn’t greet us at all, simply looked up from his screen and with a terrible attitude asked if we had a booking as they were very busy. We gave the name we booked a reservation under, and after making us wait for 5 minutes with no explanation, he finally showed us to our table. The table he decided to put us on was not in the main restaurant, but in the hallway where everybody queues up waiting to be seated. Not only were we surrounded by other guests (not socially distanced), the door was wide open and we were freezing cold. None of us were happy to sit there so my friend went and spoke to the manager. As soon as she approached him he said “I know what you’re gonna say, you want to sit somewhere else”. Well of course, who would want to be sat eating dinner in the middle of a queue!? Finally the waiter came over and moved us to one of the 3 big empty tables that were in the main restaurant, which we were incredibly grateful for. When the manager came through again, he made a comment “you’re lucky I moved you to this table”. Absolutely no need for this attitude, and he was clearly aware that where he seated us originally was not comfortable, as he knew before we even said anything that we would be asking to move. The next thing was the food. I have always enjoyed the meals I have had at the Chequers but I was very disappointed and disgusted with the quality of food. We ordered bread and oil to start, with calamari. The calamari was a joke. 6 pieces no bigger than a 10 pence piece were on the plate and the majority of the “calamari” was over cooked batter. Next, our steaks came out. We all ordered Sirloins (the most expensive on the menu - £24) and I could have bought a £4 steak from Tesco, cooked it better and enjoyed it more. I have never been served sirloin on the bone, and it had a HUGE ring of fat surrounding the entire steak. After we all hacked at the fat and got to the meat, all of our steaks were over done and the meat was chewy. This is not the quality I would expect from paying for the most expensive steak on the menu. The only thing about the experience that was okay, was the waiter who was serving us was very pleasant. None of us will be going back to eat here again.

Seated well and order taken promptly but food took a long time to arrive. Disappointed with quality of roast beef but friendly, helpful staff.

The Chequers is a lovely pub and we had a really nice meal here. Service and prices were both good and would definitely recommend a visit if you get a chance.

To book a table here it’s easy on the website and tells you that you have the table for 2 hours. We arrived early and was seated then approached by a staff member to say that we had the table for two hours and that we should be prompt as they were fully booked !!!!!We ordered starters which were barely warm and was shocked to pay £7.95 for 6 bits of what was supposed to be squid but was just over cooked greasy batter.My husband ordered rib eye steak but received a sirloin instead.Normally we would sit and enjoy a meal and a chat but we felt uncomfortable as the staff couldn’t wait to get rid of you so as they could get more people in. Marlow is a lovely town with plenty of other restaurants to eat .

We spent the weekend in Marlow. Stayed on Saturday night in the signature room. it was a lovely split level room with a free standing bath.The staff were all helpful and friendly, checkin was swift. They are trying very hard with the covid restrictions and have a one way system etc.Food and beverage could be ordered on the app.Breakfast next morning was good and delicious coffee!

Poor quality food, slow service. Not been the same since Brakespears took the lease back from Taylor Made steaks. There are many better places to eat in Marlow.

My partner surprised me with a stay at Chequers for 2 nights for my birthday and it really was a treat. The building’s decor shouts rustic with its oak beams and tasteful colour schemes. My partner had mentioned on the booking that it was my birthday, and upon checking in we were greeted with 2 glasses of Prosecco. The Covid guidelines were clearly in place and well thought out. The pub is located on the high street - so really easy to get around. Would definitely recommend a stay here.
