Visited ivy cafe for my birthday today (26.06.23). Unfortunately it was a disappointing experience. We arrived at 2pm, starters were lovley but unfortunately mains were very disappointing and service was poor. It took over 25 minutes for our stater plates to be collected which meant that our mains weren’t actually processed with the kitchen until 3.01. It was over an hour (1 hr 15 mins) from arriving before we received our main meals. I ordered the fish cake with a poached egg. When it arrived, the poached egg was over cooked. My meal was sent back for a fresh one to be made. My husband in the mean time ate his main meal and mine arrived around 3.25pm. The poached egg was over cooked again. We were on a time limit and had to leave by 4pm at the latest. I informed our sever about the overcooked poached egg. He asked if I wanted the meal to be made again but I said I didn’t have time and was hungry! He said he would speak to his manager. When the bill came, we were charged for the entire meal and no apology or recognition of the fact that I had not eaten with my husband, waited for my main meal to be made twice and both times the egg was over cooked. Disappointing and not the experience I expected.

Ivy , I must say is one of the best restaurants I have been too , I have been consistently going at least once a month to the ivy in marlow and it has not disappointed . We always have the cheese soufflé and truffle Aranci balls for starter which never dissapoint , the cheese soufflé just melts in your mouth and has such a simplistic and distinct flavour to It which brings the whole dish together . For mains I generally have the fish cake , which taste phenomenal, the mushy pea and fish cake combo is out of this world and is definitely a must try when visiting this place . I normally don’t have desserts as I’m full with the previous dishes , but when i do have dessert I normally go for the chocolate bomb , which too be honest isn’t really my thing and I feel that it is a bit too sweet for my liking . I have been to Ivy Marlow Garden on many different days and times and it has always has a good vibe and ambiance towards the place, and generally if not always packed out .

I suppose I went expecting some wow… you know , you taste a mouthful and then are just amazed at how lovely it is and share with your friends ? It’s not that . It’s a reasonable enough restaurant , but it’s not great value and it’s not wow . £50 per head with one drink each … so mainly food cost … mains for £24-35 each .. you do expect either wow , or generous . It was alright … big let down was service , with a disinterested waitress , so we didn’t pay the 12.5% they had added to the bill ! We left something but we decided how much . It wasn’t £40 extra for the service that’s for sure . Biggest let down was the Malaysian monkfish curry . 5 pieces of monk fish the size of a 50 pence , in a nice sauce but it wasn’t curry … if I had paid £12/15 for it I might not have minded but at £24 I expected more . Over all , ok , but don’t go expecting fantastic food , unless a great culinary experience for you , is Greggs .

We attended the New Years Eve dinner last night and it turned out to be our best ever visit to the Ivy in Marlow. On arrival at our table we were each given a fabulous pop out menu with flashing lights and music. Service from Josh was outstanding, entertainment was excellent. I do not know how they managed to serve up food to so many people at such a high standard! Our party had the lobster / prawn cocktail to start and Sea Bass and tenderloin fillet steak for the main which were both outstanding. Chocolate bombs for desert were also a spectacle to receive and tasted fabulous. This New Years Eve dinner was fantastic value for money, I thoroughly recommend this restaurant (with hesitation as I believe with this level of service it will become so popular in 2025 that I will not be able to get a table).

We came here for a birthday brunch and well there were pros and cons. The decor is a 5/5 for sure, it's not often you see restaurants this beautiful. The place has a really classy and clean feel to it and we were placed on a nice, spacious table. I had the Ivy full English breakfast without the egg and my partner (what's pictured) had the Ivy vegetarian full breakfast. Mine was nice, nothing particularly inventive but it was pleasant and everyone else enjoyed theirs. The service was a tad confusing at point as the food took a whole to come, some people had theirs way before others and there was a mix up in orders which led us to have too much toast and other sides we didn't ask for. I'd have to come to this place again to decide if it is what the hype makes up because it was just fine.
