I always visit Marlows cafe when I'm visiting Hemel Hempstead for the delicious, cooked to perfection, tasty food. I have never been let down with the quality and always enjoy my prefered dish Peri peri Chicken with all the trimmings...if anything its got better! I love the cosy, warm and welcoming atmosphere and the way there elderly customers are looked after is so lovely and heart warming to see.

avoid this place, like the plague ! They charge extra money for every item , which should actually be included! cream in a hot chocolate 70p extra, I asked for my baked beans to be heated up last time I visited this place, the staff slapped £1.50 on the bill. i asked for the money back today and the owners tried to lie to me. They snatched my bag and accused me of not paying i have never done this anywhere in my life. I placed my card against the card reader and it did not acknowledge the payment. i had to call the police to retrieve my bag, the police came straight away, thankfully to allow me to pay my bill in full and leave with my bag! I will never enter this place again. I am a courteous and polite person and will not be treated like I'm a criminal. I have no criminal record. I am a professional person and am embarking on a forensic psychology degree. Be careful to check your bill each time.

I’ve been going to Marlowes cafe for many years on and off as I’ve always found it the best cafe in town. Even better since it moved to a new premises a few doors down. I go with friends and I go alone it’s always very friendly, very good old kind of customer service (I like a lot ) and nothing is to much trouble it’s so welcoming and has a great vibe overall. I normally have the Marlowes breakfast, good ingredients, bacon is really nice quality I’m always happy! I’ve tried the roast on a Sunday Very nice, but I’d recommend fresh vegetables, I’m not a veggie person so overall I was happy with my meal. Easy parking for disabled customers Dog friendly on the patio with water bowls and the patio looks great. I look forward to trying new meals on the menu, but I’m a creature of habit. Because my regular cafes done a huge price hike many times I’ll be going to Marlowes cafe more often now as I feel I get good value for money. Thanks guys!

To begin with, a wonderfully warm welcome on entry, The staff here are the very best a business could wish for, always smiling, attentive, whilst remaining professional. I’m fortunate enough to class the owner as a friend and for someone in his early years, has grasped the concept of running a successful business faultlessly. There is a very diverse menu, of which I have tasted the majority and can give no criticism whatsoever. All in all, as the title suggests, a sensational restaurant that I will continue to visit and bring as much new custom to as possible. Very well done to Al and the team!!!

Just been here for breakfast and am not disappointed, the staff are very friendly, the food is tasty and the price isn’t too much. We asked for the 25% discount on coffee promotion which had unfortunately run out, we didn’t notice this but they honoured it nonetheless. We will be back.

Food was OK, not brilliant. The service, on the other hand, was a little too brusque for my liking. Server brought the wrong thing and insisted I had ordered it - as if I don't know what I want for my own breakfast! Ridiculous. Won't ever go there again.

If we were in Hemel Hempstead again would definitely go back.

I have used this cafe and restaurant on and off for a number of years. Excellent freshly cooked meals. There is always a "special" or a good roast dinner. I'm only sorry I don';t live locally any more to use this place regularly. Any of the (all day) breakfast selection are well worth the money and the extensive menu ranging from snacks to jacket potatoes as well as a range of desserts are worth sampling. The staff work hard here and the same family have offered a warm welcome to many regular customers for a number of years. There is not much to look forward to on a return visit to the centre of Hemel Hempstead (not the most inspiring of towns!) - but this is certainly a highlight. But since I moved away, I have to say that they have made considerable effort to improve the facilities within the pedestrianised area of the town.

Two of us popped in here today for Sunday lunch. We had the roast lamb special for £6.20 and cottage pie for £5.50. They were both served within 5 minutes of sitting down, were of a good size and both piping hot. We would of had apple pie for dessert but they don't take cards and we only had a few pounds in cash on us. Tea was £1 a cup and coffee was £1.50.

The food is nice enough at the Marlowes Café but unfortunately the Manager over charged us by £10 and when he was questioned about it he couldn't tell us what extra's we'd had so he had to give us our money back. So if you go here make sure you add up the bill yourself!!!!

We came in for the street food and found the event very well run, there were plenty of stalls, a good variety of offerings and seats to be had. Staff in the pub were very friendly and plenty of them clearing glasses - in fact a bit too keen, keep your glass in view. The ordering at the bar is meant to streamline the system but makes it into a bottleneck- but no real issue there was a Tring beer tent outside! Great event and pub give it a go!
