We had our office Christmas party at The Marlborough and have to say it was the best Christmas Do I have ever had.
The staff were not only professional but extremely friendly and helpful.
The food was so amazing we decided to book a table for their New Years Party.
At first glance we thought it was a little pricy at £40 ph but any worries we might have had quickly disappeared.
The sole stuffed with crab moose was so light and tasty it left you wanting more.......
I raise a glass to all those who work so hard at this friendly local pub and wish you all a happy New Year

My husband and I just came back from The Marlborough, in Richmond, following what was probably one of the worst meals we have ever had! My husband enjoys having a roast dinner on a Sunday evening; however, he was extremely disappointed with the overall quality of his meal. Despite checking with the waitress about the freshness of the roast potatoes and Yorkshire pudding, these were appalling. The “roast potatoes” were in fact boiled new potatoes and the Yorkshire pudding was flat. The beef was chewy and the gravy poor. I ordered “The Works Burger”, which was served with stone cold French fries and the meat not only was extremely poor quality, but over cooked. For our toddler we ordered the mashed potatoes with sausages, which must have been made with instant mash mixture, for it was inedible. We used to eat at this pub very often a couple of years ago and were always very pleased not only with the service but the food. We believed they must have changed their chef and after a couple of very disappointing experiences we stopped going until earlier this year. As it seemed to have improved slightly it was at my suggestion that we decided to dine there again tonight, but after a terrible evening when the quality of the food was nothing but scandalous, I believe we will not be returning!

The place is lovely, but, the service is very slow. I went twice and you have to wait at least an hour for the food.

The Marlborough is exactly what it looks like, a good quality, old-fashioned style pub - a traditional boozer if you like. It's definitely more comfortable and homely than any spit and sawdust type places, which means you can easily spend a long Sunday afternoon getting drunk in there!

I'm sure The Marlborough made a lot of its money from us students but now half of us can't even go in there as they've made it over 21s only! It doesn't seem to have worked because every time I go past there it's not very busy. I used to love The Marlborough, all of us did, so lower the age limit again!
