The Ivy Marlow has been my go to Ivy for years, but my visit last night paled to it's usual experience. Everything was just slightly off and that makes a difference when you go expecting a consistently high service. Was not asked to have our jackets taken, despite them clearly being oversized winter wear. I had to request it. Seemed to under staffed and having to wait and flag down a waiter to get anything, from drinks, to food or other. First time bringing the kids, got them the sausage and mash. Expecting Ivy standard, smaller portions, especially for the price. Reality was low quality, over cooked sausage, that you could pick up at the kebab van outside. My rib eye stake was cooked correctly but fairly cold upon arrival already and the plate was cold. My wife's burger was over cooked, tough and harder to eat than usual. The squid starters and chicken skewers were on point though. Overall, it was okay but disappointing. Staff were all fine once you were speaking to them but will probably take a break from visiting to consider other options next time.

While the food was good. The service or should I say the complete and utter lack there of was shocking! It was a so off hand with a couldn’t care less attitude. What should’ve been a really enjoyable lunch with good friends was, marred unnecessarily. I’d certainly not go back.

The dinner experience was lovely as usual - the staff was helpful, the food was delicious. The ambience of the restaurant is lovely, except this time we got seated in the covered area at the back. There was a cold draft on the feet and heater right above the head which made it the seats we specifically had less than desirable. Will be mindful to check where in the restaurant we’re getting a table next time, but yes, there will be a next time. .

Lovely atmosphere for a sunday afternoon. Chicken roast dinner was excellent, puddings were nicely presented and tasty. Unfortunately the Wine and drinks over priced but the service was 1st class. Would definitely recommend and go again.
