A very quiet, but friendly welcoming environment. Lovely service, menu was adequate for a business lunch. The steaks were really tender, well seasoned and cooked perfectly, and the triple cooked chips were great! We could have done with some coleslaw, or a mushroom or salad garnish, as the steak looked a bit lonely on the plate :-(

I've visited Marlow many times over the years but curiously I had never eaten at The Chequers so when the opportunity appeared on OpenTable to have a late lunch with my wife I took it. The pub was easy to find and I managed to park 50 yards away from the front door despite it being a busy Saturday. The pub is a bit of a tardess with a lovely English warm and cosy feel about it. My wife and I had looked at the menu on the OpenTable App prior to arrival so we were especially looking forward to Sticky Beef Sarters and the Pan-Fried Sea Bass Fillet as a main, unfortunately neither are on the current menu which was half the size of the menu listed in the App. The waitress explained that the menu has changed late last year and apologised that OpenTable hadn't been updated so we choose our starters and main with a special request for some alternative sauces for my wife's fish dish all taken into account and handled really well. Have to say that our waitress was first rate and our food was delicious so top marks to The Chequers for that. What I hadn't appreciated was what the price would be for lunch as a whole for the 2 of us considering we had a shot of brandy, 2 glasses of wine, garlic bread with cheese (£4) Cod Fishcake with pea purée (£8), 200g fillet steak (£24)with side salad and a Seabass Fillet (£17) no desserts and a latte to finish. The total bill was £83! The sweet potato fries and the side salad to my steak were both extras and to me were there to just bump up the spend. It didnt worry me to the point that I wouldn't go back again but enough to make you look carefully before you order. Overall a lovely pub, great food and service just a touch expensive.

Excellent carvery at the Chequers on a Sunday afternoon with a friend, I wasn't sure what to expect for £14 but the beef and lamb I had was cooked to perfection and although the selection of trimmings wasn't exactly mind blowing (yorkshires, potatoes, parsips, shredded red cabbage, garden peas and gravy) it was all very nice.

We come to the Chequers for many varied occasions because we love the Sunday Carvery, fab choice of meats and vegetables and good wine and beer too. The steaks and also anything from the main menu is just as good too. The Staff are always friendly, accommodating and always at hand to help whether you are on the phone or at the restaurant or bar. This is very much our go to restaurant whether it is just the two of us or the large crowd 9-10 of us that usually come here. Thanks to all the Staff who make our times at the Chequers always enjoyable whatever the occasion.

We had a gift voucher to use, so we took the family for a late lunch. The food took over 50 minutes to be delivered, despite the restaurant being very quiet. A few items on the menu were not available, causing us to have to order the more expensive option, or not really what we wanted. Found it extremely overpriced for the quality of the food, atmosphere, having to substitute this and that due to the restaurant not having it? I think £15.90 for a hamburger is ridiculous in a pub.

Probably would have given 5 stars for overall but unfortunately there was a girl serving who must have been having a bad day. The main person attending to our table though, a Hungarian lady, was absolutely wonderful and she definitely deserves a raise! Please pass on our thanks..
