The Duke at Marlow, Marlow

The Duke of Cambridge is a short walk from Marlow town centre in a residential area up Oxford Road and a turning on the right. I would imagine the trade is mainly from locals and those who search it out due to its inclusion in several GBG’s (usually the only Marlow pub to be included). It’s a solid enough well run single bar pub with usually three beers on. These tend to Rebellion IPA (look out for the biggest pump clip you are likely to come across, well you can’t actually miss it), and Mutiny from the local Marlow brewery and then the third is a rotating guest, which was unfortunately off when I visited last week. As mentioned its internally one square space with the bar tucked away in the left hand corner, a dart board with oche in the right hand corner, burgundy coloured bench seating around two of the walls and additional tables and chairs in the middle of the pub. Personally I don’t find the internal space too inviting because it is very open plan and there is nowhere you can sit without being in full view of everyone else in the pub. That’s why I tend to utilise the pleasant beer garden out the back, although this can be a bit of a strange experience at times as this can sometimes resemble a menagerie as there is a large aviary, Chicken coops and usually the multiple pub dogs.
