The Coach & Horses

Wow, this was the best food I ever had and it was my birthday. If you go to the coach you will be over the moon with the price, but more the food. Everything I had was the best thing I ever had. But the mango and pineapple choux bun was by far the best for me. We are going to become regulars. Even tho I live in Newcastle. Thank you so much for the best experience for my 42 birthday ❤️

Marlow has so much to offer in the food arena and Tom Kerridge is Marlow royalty in the town. The Coach offers a taste of Kerridge at a more affordable price then his signature gastro pub The Hand and Flowers. Having been disappointed by my last visit to the Hand and Flowers, I was hoping that my first visit to The Coach might offer me a different perspective on Tom's cookery but unfortunately I was again left slightly disappointed. The service was excellent and the atmosphere was busy and vibrant but the food left me feeling flat. The quail and scotch egg were overly salty, think of the rim of a margarita when gulping down the cocktail, and the roast potatoes with beef fat hollandaise were on the bland side, think Aunt Bessie's cooked in an air fryer. That being said, there were some highlights, which make The Coach worth a visit. The cauliflower soup with cheddar and marmite samosa was delicious, I could have eaten a plate of the samosa as it was so tasty, and the treacle tart with clotted cream was a fantastic sweet treat to finish with. Overall, lots of great stuff to pamper the palette but some dishes may leave you feeling a little flat when the bill arrives.
