The Chequers - Carte

The restaurant provides exceptional food and service, outshining many other pubs that claim to have a la carte choices. The steaks were superb, the wine was delightful, and the desserts were delicious. It is definitely worth a visit.

We spent one night here over Easter. While I understand that this is primarily a pub with rooms, we have stayed in better accommodations before. The room was satisfactory, although it appeared slightly worn. We are uncertain if we would choose to stay here again, despite its convenient central location.

The food was good, but there was a large and noisy gathering happening at one of the tables. We had to raise our voices to talk to each other, which made the experience less enjoyable. We should have been given the option of sitting in a quieter area of the restaurant. I probably wouldn't choose to dine there again. Apologies. Voir le carte

I had pre-booked this restaurant for lunch after a long journey of several hundred miles. I had also emailed ahead to request a window seat (if available) and mentioned that it was for our anniversary celebration. However, upon arrival, it seemed that nobody was interested in serving us. Three staff members ignored us while playing with a customer's dog, and another staff member was overheard saying that he was "trying to avoid customers". When we finally got someone's attention and mentioned our booking, the staff member nonchalantly directed us to a table. Feeling completely disregarded as customers, we decided to leave without trying the food. Unfortunately, first impressions do matter.

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...

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.... Voir le carte

The atmosphere of this pub is charming and the Churchills Tap is excellent. However, I would not recommend this place for food or accommodation. Unfortunately, the chef's family seems to treat the kitchen like a daycare center, with children coming in and out during service. This raises concerns about food safety and hygiene practices. It is surprising that the establishment has a hygiene license given the behavior we witnessed. It is disappointing that such a lovely spot on Marlow's high street is let down by the chef and his unruly children. Perhaps we visited on a day when their babysitter was unavailable, but even so, children should not be allowed to freely roam in and out of the kitche...

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 c...

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... Voir le carte
