Well established restaurant a little tired but okay
August 07, 2014

There were lots of outside tables on a warm summer evening and they weren't busy. Service is friendly and slow at times. The interior of the restaurant looks dark and didn't appeal to me. The food is reasonably priced and a change from roadhouse style food with some European options. Pork tenderloin was okay but not quite what I anticipated.... more

When 60 people arrive at the same time for dinner, the restaurant better know what they're doing. We had a buffet dinner which was excellent. We all sat upstairs in our private dining room and the two bar tenders did a good job making sure the drink orders kept coming out. Food was very tasty with a large selection to... more

I had the pleasure of stopping by this restaurant downtown, I haven't visited it in many years but I was thoroughly impressed by the service and food. Each course was presented very professionally and brought me at ease to know that 5 star service still exists.

Chaucer's Pub ... great food, slow service

Having eaten at Chaucer's Pub between two and five times per year over the course of roughly ten years I can honestly say I've never been disappointed withe the food.

A recent outing to the Marienbad in London, ON. was once again a pleasant dining experience. The restaurant has the standard fare such as steak, chicken and fish however in the case of the latter two they are prepared differently from other establishments which makes for a great meal. Of course for me the overall attraction is the platter consisting... more

Best Dessert in London
April 17, 2014

Sometimes I just crave schnitzel and Marienbad is always a great meal. This spot has one of my favourite wines (Kilikanoon Killerman's Run Shiraz) which is how I love to start. I then order the regular schnitzel with spatzel (little dumplings) and gravy on the side. For dessert I love the option of the Marienbad Bombe which is ice cream... more

Just recently went to our favourite restaurant in London ON - the Marienbad to celebrate with parents.

Mediocre food, pleasant service
February 16, 2014

If you've eaten good schnitzel, you'll know this ain't it. It didn't even look like schnitzel....it my have come from a freezer. The veal was too thick, the breading too greasy and the entire dish lacked any seasoning. Bland, utterly without taste. This was accompanied by vegetables that were cooked to the point of being barely edible. The chicken pesto... more

January 24, 2014

This is an excellently situated restaurant in Downtown London; ideal for meals before/after theatre/concerts or Budweiser Gardens activities. It is a very well established restaurant that serves German-style food in the form of beautifully cooked schnitzels, but there are other dished on the menu for those not pre-disposed to veal. The ambience is great, the service quick and the food... more

fine cousine
July 30, 2013

I am a regular at the resaurant. It is constantly providing a high quality service for the patrons. The chef(s) must be on the same page as well since the quality of the food is costant.
The athmosphere is casual but yet it has an elegant charm. The inside covered court is a gem in London.
Price is fine .

I believe that the cleanliness of a restaurant's washrooms reflect the cleanliness of the kitchen and dining room. Can you see where I'm going with this??!!

Over 30 years ago, I had my first date with my husband here. We came here for our rehearsal dinner. Now when I come back to town, I come here with my octogenarian parents. Food is consistent, service is excellent (many of the servers the same!), pleasant surroundings. It is a formula that works.

I have been attending this restaurant since the 1970's. The quality is excellent, service is friendly. I have never been disappointed nor has anyone I've taken there. Good selection of beer. Schnitzel, goulash, rouladen and many more delicious choices. Streudel is the best. Comfortable surroundings. All round good restaurant.

Adventure to Carlsbad

A trip back home. Friendly staff and cozy atmosphere take you to the Europe of old. Just like mom used to make. A true Czech experience. Schnitzel at its finest. Dessert crepes filled with cranberries tops the meal. A place to go to converse and enjoy people you love because the noise level is minimal and the traffic is low.

Major disappointment
March 16, 2013

It was" schnitzelfest" when we went and the two of us were extremely disappointed. The food is clearly pre-fab and cooked from frozen. My schnitzel was twice the size of my partners...terrible portioning! We believe the goulash was chunky beef soup with paprika added to it. The service was the only highlight, but then we were the only people in... more

Excellent selection of beer on tap. Well prepared food. interesting building. My latest experience there was for a club Christmas gathering so there was limited menu but everyone was very pleased with their selections (Prime rib and Salmon). We are booking our party at the Marienbad next year too but I'm looking forward to going there for dinner soon.

Dobre! Very good
April 25, 2010

Straight from a Czechish girl: If you are looking for something other than 'asian' for ethnic food, Marienbad is the tops.
Specializing in Eastern European food, such as famous Czech, German/Austrian and Polish dishes, this restaurant is classic for the foodie in you!
Also, while at Marienbad, try one of their authentic pivos (beer) from their gigantic selection.

Great meal - slightly pricey. Would go back
August 03, 2009

Went on a Tuesday night. Not busy, but wait staff was courteous and efficient. Rib eye was a fairly cheap cut of meat but properly prepared. Rest of meal was spot on. Price was perhaps 10% higher than one might expect for similar meals in London, but was within reason.
