It had been a long time since we last visited Marlow’s for a meal, but every experience I’ve had there has been fantastic. The food is always excellent—fresh, unique, and innovative—and this visit was no exception.

We stopped in for brunch and started with their berries served with a banana crème brûlée and yogurt. It looked so good that we dug in before I even thought to take a photo! We also ordered the thick-cut maple-flavored bacon, which was outstanding, and the chorizo eggs, which came with toast. To drink, we tried their take on a virgin Bloody Mary, along with a latte and coffee—everything was absolutely delicious.

Beyond the food, I love the restaurant’s theme. The western-inspired black-and-white aesthetic gives it a modern yet cozy vibe. It’s a charming little spot tucked just around the corner. Parking is available on the street, with metered spots or free parking on Sundays—just be mindful of parking restrictions.

One little detail that gave me a laugh? The toilet paper in the restroom was wrapped in cow-print paper, which was a fun touch.

Overall, Marlow’s is a fantastic place, and if you have the chance to stop by, it’s definitely worth a visit!

Came for a birthday brunch! Nice atmosphere to catch up with friends in and the food was very tasty. The green tomatoes was a super interesting and unique appetizer!

Felt like a very elevated diner. Great eats. The burger was phenomenal but ask for horseradish on the side if you’re not a fan. We had a great time here.

I came in for dinner on a weekday with reservations, but it was likely not required. We started with the crispy Brussel sprouts and deviled eggs, which were both very good. The crispy Brussel sprouts were both light and satisfying. And the deviled eggs were a perfect bite with a nice finish of bacon on top. The cod was definitely the star of the night. I just wish there was a little more. The burger was also very good, but not particularly unique. All and all, I will definitely be coming back. Very nice place and service was fantastic.
