Had lunch and two appetizers. All had burgers. Appetizers were hushpuppy shrimp and bone-in wings. Food was good but service in a fairly empty restaurant at 1 PM on a Thursday took too long. Wings were huge. One party asked for sweet-potato fries and received something else.
My medium burger was undercooked, it was a Mexican burger which I have had in the past but they changed the taco meat and it waaaay too salty and just did not have a taco flavor, it was not good! I upcharged for the sweet potato fries, they were served cold (I guess the burger wasn’t cooked yet so they sat, which meant they rushed the burger which resulted in the undercooked burger I was served).
Extensive, creative, entertaining menu & our meals were delicious!! Good variety of beers. Server/bartender did a great job serving us at the bar for a Monday lunch. Lots of character in the design. We will come back often!
Mostly frozen preprepared foods except the wings. Few healthy choices. Average pub food at best. Bar server was very nice and efficient.
Always as great experience, it is our favorite mariachi restaurant, food is great and the service excellent
Great service. Our waiter was friendly and funny. The food was really good. Portion size is perfect for one or to share with one other person. Overall great experience.

Service was excellent and food delicious. So many types of wings to choose from ! Will definitely return.

Pleasant staff, nice pub, casual. Bang bang shrimp was excellent, Frickin chicken was delicious.
Hillary our barmaid/server was terrific. Always great food and service.
Nice place, friendly staff (Ryan our server was awesome). The only complaint I have is that it was freezing cold in the restaurant!
Awesome food as always. Staff friendly and engaging
Great wings, generous portions. So many wings to choose from, we can’t wait to go back to try more!
The wings were the best I ever ate. Huge portion and the selection was endless!
Waitress seemed too busy but only had 2 and then 3 tables., salads needed more greens and less extras. Salads were overwhelming with @stuff" added. Too heavy.
Good service, interesting tasteful food choices, lousy booth seat pads
Food was excellent as always. Service was also great.
Food is great. Service is good. Menu selection is excellent
Our server was very patient with us, a person in our party was having personal problems at home and the server did not rush us to order. She came back to the table several times , waiting for a. Ompletf food order. When we left, she offered kind words of encouragement . The food was delicious , especially the WINGS!!
Their wings are the best!!
Great food. Excellent menu
Fish tacos over cooked and sauce was runny.
The food was delicious, but the wait for our order was too long.
Service was a little slow as it had so many families when we went. I have to say the kids were good. Food was great. Chris was a little slow.
Food was great
Service was very bad Server wasn't able to answer questions about the menu
Great personalized service. Exceptional food. Humongous servings.
Service was very slow. looked like there was only one server handling the tables as well as the bar. She was very pleasant, but definitely needed more help. We had put an hour and 15 minutes on the parking meter, but had to run out and put more money in.
A little slow service at lunch time but shorthanded. Server was excellent and took care of all our requests promptly and with a smile!
Service was not very good. Forgot our salad dressing....had to go to the kitchen to get it as he disappeared for awhile and we couldn't eat our salad. Didn't bring us plates to place our hot wing bones on.
Delicious and a nice presentation
Very nice place and great service.
Very tasty and great service.
Excellent food , atmosphere and choice of food ??
I ordered a Ceasar salad, and there was far too much dressing on it and an over-abundance of shaved parmesan cheese. The chicken wings were heavily breaded with little chicken on them.
Great wings
We never get tired of "just as great as usual". We all thoroughly enjoyed the Penne Rosina, Veal Francese & Shrimp Ravioli in a pink brandy sauce. We will be there again very soon. The service and pricing were both "very nice".
Meal was not good
Waited an hour for our food while others that entered both before us and after us were served, ate and left. Our server told us "it'll be out soon" approximately 25 minutes before our food was out.An hour for two salads, a wrap and a panini? Unacceptable.We were given a 5 dollar discount coupon for waiting.
We enjoy dining at Marley's every time we've visited, and plan on doing so in the future. Our last waitress Candy was very attentive and efficient, and added to the great experience. We've never had a bad dining experience at Marley's in all the we've eaten there. Highly recommend!
Needed to be out within the hour, and Marley's was busy. We let the owner/manager know and she told the kitchen to be sure we could make the show on time. Thank you.
they told us we could split the wings 5 & 5 with 2 sauces. Then charged fifty cents extra. Not a problem, but why not tell you additional charges up front. That always bothers me. Its not the fifty cents, we would have done it anyway, but don't sneak extra costs on the bill.
We love their wings! Extra large and 110 varieties and counting.
I had read a few reviews about slow service but our service was great, very attentive
This was our second time here. First time the service was very slow. We figured we'd give it another try. Worse the second time. Took a good 5+ minutes for a waitress to notice us. Our appetizers never came and it took 25 minutes for our food to come out. A burger and a sandwich. Ridiculous. The food was good and the staff was friendly but horrible service. Oh and they also put the chicken on the wrong roll, to top it off.
Laid back atmosphere, energy, good food
Great friendly servers/bartenders. Best wings ever and huge!
Marleys is my favorite place to go. Fantastic food every single time!!!
our server...Anthony or Andrew...cannot recall...was outstanding..the wings were awesome our entrees were good and the desert fed 3 of us.Only down side was a loud party near us...of course that is to be expected at times...but overall a wonderful evening
food was very disappointing. Waitress never filled drinks or cleaned up between courses. Took waitress 15 minutes to return the change from my bill.
Food was just ok for the price!
We all had separate entrees and each one was very good
the service, the protions and the quality of food was extrodinary
We actually brought our food home but had a drink while we were waiting. Service was excellent.
Wings were awesome so many choices it was hard to decide got several different and all were great
Everything was excellent, from the Thai calamari, the soup du jour, our entrees, and the wonderful desserts. Also, the Sangria was very good, and reasonably priced.
Everyone's meal was great, drinks included. Waiter very friendly and helpful!Had a restaurant gift card but will come again without one
Wings were great, salmon was just ok ... tasted somewhat "fishy" ... salmon should not have that "fishy" taste. Corn bread was excellent, and potato soup was unbelievably good. Service was good, but a bit slow. It took a long time to get our drinks.
Excellent waiter, food was delicious and hot! Nice atmosphere.
Wings were outstanding and so was the service
We come to your restaurant all the time and we love it. The chicken piccata wings last were so incredibly salty and the sauce was different. Wanted to let you guys know. Of course we loved Henry. He's the best!
I did have great food BUT it took forever to come out to our table. Around 45 minutes and we got there at 5:30 before there were any crowds.
Wings are absolutely the best!
Loved the wings!!!
Although the friendly and personable waiter initially forgot my soup, the food was delicious and affordable. We were one of two parties in the restaurant area (not counting the bar area) and I enjoyed that seclusion.
Our server was fantastic, taking care of our 3-year-old first, knowing it would be hard for him to wait. He was personable and quick with service, our food was correct (you'd be surprised how many places get orders wrong) and our food was good!
Waited a little bit for the food, but it was so worth the wait! Delicious! Best wings I have ever had. Attentive wait staff!
The ongoing problem with this restaurant is the fact that is takes so long to receive our food!
Everything was fantastic. The employees were all very friendly and the food was amazing! This was our first time at this restaurant and we will definitely be back soon.
The food was very good and our waitress was helpful. We had 2 different types of wings a salad and a burger and everything was very good.
Service was horrible - food was not cooked to order medium rare ordered well done delivered
great place to go
Service below average. Not greeted upon coming in. Waiter did not come back often to ask how things were or fill up water. Food very good.
The young man who was our server was very nice and helpful. The meals were outstanding. I especially enjoyed the chicken wings.
slow service.Waitness was not too knowledgeableslow service. Waitress was not too knowledgeable.
Good food, service and price!
Enjoyed Marley's will be going back soon. one of us is a true 30 year Vegetarian, and Marley's has the Best Veggie Burger ... no competition and he's had Many!
We've been on a search for good wings and were happy to find them here. I was also happy with my burger which was not too greasy as is common at other places. Staff were all very friendly. My only complaint which is why service was 4 out of 5 was that it took us 3 times to get water for my husband.
Waited over 90 minutes for dinner. 1 of us ordered chicken wings, was told "we're out of them"then wings were later served. Our waitress was great and obviously covering for a mismanaged kitchen.
We had the ribs and sweet potato fries and it was excellent!
Henry offered us attentive service, the meal was delicious and the dessert fabulous!
Ambience is relaxing and wait staff are courteous and friendly
We waited at least 25 minutes for our appetizers. Our waiter was very apologetic and friendly but it appeared as though they may have been short-staffed or just poorly managed.
We love Marley's
had to wait a long time to be seated.
Loved the spinach and butternut squash salad and my fiancé's burger was good too. I will be moving to the area in the fall and will definitely be coming back more often. I enjoyed the seat by the window!
Our waitress Kaitlyn was very knowledgeable about the menu and helped us with our selections.
food was good. waitress was great
Delicious food and fun atmosphere. Had a fun Saturday night.
the service was great and the food was delicious.
Food was delicious. Service was ok. Only complaint was when the check came, our $25.00 was not deducted and we were left to figure out the bill ourselves. This should be our server's responsibility, not ours.
food is very good. portions big.
Good service! great Food
Seats in booth lumpy. Place is worn, old but has a bit of old charm.
Atmosphere was good, menu item names were unique, interesting and fun and food was good
We had a fantastic waitress named ZEENA!The wings were delicious as were the salads.The $3.00 margueritas were very tastey.
Love their wings, salads, and burgers
Has potential but do not go during a dinner rush. Service was rather poor, overwhelmed waitresses and lots of noise.
Our server was polite and prompt, ad our order came out quickly. The food was very good.
Fantastic food! We have been to Marleys several times the food is fabulous every time!I recommend it to all my friends.
We both had the Vegetarian Burger and it was very good.
There was only one server to cover the entire dining room. Service was very slow at every turn. The calamari with asian sauce was saturated in the sauce needlessly. The fish and chips was generic quality french fries and breaded fish that was overcooked with mostly breading and very little fish.
Chef was able to tweak the dish to my liking to eliminate the alcohol. I don't consume alcohol.
Great waiter...very attentive and friendly
Great food! We love their wings.
The two servers were exceptionally attentive making for a pleasant evening. "Thank you."The pub itself was very comfortable and the staff welcoming.
great food and service
the winw by the bottle is too expensive
Food and service was very good.
Loved my salad! Will be returning!
Love it! The owners are very friendly! If I lived in Myrtle Beach, I would go there at least once a week. They have the BEST crab cakes that I have found in SC!
The food is great. Burgers, fries, and so many choices for wings!
BEST wings ever and a great burger, but none of us like the new pretzel roll.
the service was great, the food was excellent!
Marley's has the most delicious food! I will only eat food that is prepared with the freshest high quality ingredients & Marley's never disappoints me. The chef is top amazing!
the food and service was outstanding
Friendly service... great wings!
Great wings!
Service was bad. Too slow. My well-done burger, that I ordered medium-rare, had the onions on it that my wife requested on hers. Fries are tasteless. A few good beers on draft.
Food and service were both very good. The waitress in the dining room on Wednesday night was excellent. It was fairly busy and she was quick and knew what she was doing. I don't know her name, but my husband and I say thank you.
The food which is normally very good arrived "warm", a little better than room temp.This has never happened before, I trust that it won't happen again.
As always the food is really great especially the wide variety of Chicken Wings. Alissa, our waitress, was also great.
We both had the selection called The Empire Steak Building and it was delicious. Our server did an excellent job.
Awesome wings, over 50 varieties to choose from. We ordered extra to take home.
Good food and service. Dinners are very pricey, head in for lunch to get a better deal.
They were out of their normally excellent wings, so we ordered boneless instead - they turned out to be nearly 1/4 the size at the same price!
The food was good but we mistakenly went on Texas Hold 'em night. We were told to pick any seat without realizing we'd be in the middle of the players having dinner prior to their game. They shouted over us throughtout our meal making it impossible to talk.
Good happy hour and great service
GREAT WINGS
Decor was in serious need of updating. It was so outdated that it made the place look dirty. The dining experience was diminished because of the environment which was unfortunate because the food was absolutely delicious!

This was by far the best dining experience we have had a Marley's. Destiney was our server again and she is absolutely fabulous! In addition to great service, the food was extra special. I had salmon franchese over linquine and it was the most tasty dish I have had in quite a while. My husband had Frickin Chicken which was equally as tasty. My dad had the chicken marsala and it was great. Kudos to Marley's Grill. Great food and great service; what more could a girl ask for?!
Great place to spend an evening. Outstanding food, friendly staff, clean & comfortable atmosphere. We'll be back!
The wings were great; they have 50 different options for them!
the waitstaff is young and inexperienced
Good food, reasonably priced, nice variety
Server was very attentive and accommodating. Atmosphere was comfortable. Food arrived hot and was very tasty. Portions were large, 2 out of 4 brought extras home. Would definitely eat here again and would recommend to others.
It took them 15-20 mins to process my coupon and $100 bill.
Salad was very fresh and a nice big portion. Wings are awesome!
The menu is innovative and has many choices.The wings are AWESOME!!
Server was not very knowledge about the menu and was not very attentive (took along time for her to come to our table to check on refills, give us our check, etc)
food and service were very good
an average place to eat.the scallops in my meal were bay scallopsnot the real thing. should be noted on the menue
local fair
This was our second visit to Marley's and we love it! Great food and a family friendly atmosphere.
food was good service was good room temp was good. not rushed
Excellent server!
Great food! Reasonable prices and enjoyable atmosphere
Good service....good food
Marley's has upped their game. Very satisfied
good atmosphere, good attentive service.A large variety of food to choose from.
we were disappointed that a refill for ice tea was full price. we may not go again.
Service was very, very slow. We had to find the waiter to get our check and the restaurant wasn't even crowded. The food was very good though.
1. One of the 2 of us is a True Vegetarian for many years. Thank you for having a few nice options for Vegetarians. 2. The waitress we had on this visit was excellent. 3. I took a couple of people to Marleys about 2 months ago, and the waitress that day was lacking. The food was good.
Clean quick service. Great Wings
Excellent burgers.
Friendly atmosphere and good food.
Quite honestly,I would not patronize Marley's without a "coupon",as their prices are egregious in my opinion.I had a salad and meatloaf.The non discounted bill was $27.00.$16.00 for a meatloaf platter>>really?? The portions were adequate,the service efficient and attentive.
I didn't expect such an interesting selection of appetizers and main courses.
First time was great, this time was not. Long wait to get waited on and for food to come. Bread was stale. Personal pizza was dry, chicken scampi was good, buffalo chicken salad was much too spicey and greens were wilted.
We consider Marley's a hidden gem. The creative well prepared menu is amazing. We have NEVER had a bad dish here. Not a bad meal, not even a bad dish.Love the atmosphere, very comfortable.And the staff is always helpful,pleasant & friendly.PLEASE don't drop restaurant.com. It HELPS.
service was VERY S L O W
The food was quite good, although my pasta was watery and had to be sent back to be drained. The pasta was done well and the flavor quite good. I had a very large chicken breast.. took half of it home for another meal. Service nice but a little slow. The restaurant is kind of noisy..the kitchen sounds can be heard in the restaurant and I wasn't seated next to the kitchen door. I think that is because they don't have a door on the kitchen. Overall a good experience and I will go again.
Good food, good service, very accomodating.
GREAT PLACE
Nice people and a really good menu for a simple dinner and having some fun.
Laid back, but just what I was looking for. Waitress was super nice.
Very good food and service. Good value for the money.
Waitress took a while between apps, taking the order for dinner and drinks
Food was great. Service was friendly and courteous but a little scattered. Great homemade sangria!
Great waiter and terrific food
Nice Local Bar and Resturant
waited very long for food and one order came very late after all others were finished eating
Wobbly table...had to move to another table. This table had bench seats that were a extremely tight fit.
the hottest temp food ever. it was simply delicious and excellently prepared
Food was good and reasonably priced. Nice people.
Loved the wings! Great salad too.
Got there in time to enjoy the full menu and enjoyed a wonderful band, after dinner. We were treated very well. All of our questions were answered politely.
Staff is nice, service is good and food is very good especially for a local place.
Really good food, service and friendly people.
A nice well appointed dining room adjacent to a bar area which also had booths. The service was fast and attentive and the prices were very affordable. The appetizer portion could have served as an entire lunch. Highly Recommended !
Server, Steven, was excellent and attentive even tho the establishment was very busy.
Usually food and service is good. Tonight both were horrible.
The food was delicious, large portions and good service.
Service was good. Food came quickly. Was hot and tasty. Atmosphere was welcoming and comfortable.
yes very happy
Pleasant atmosphere, excellent food, very plesant and excellent service. But we almost always out only on Fri. or Saturday nights for dinner and they don't provide certificate for that anymore.

It seems they have a different chef in the night the food is always better then in the afternoon
only issue was a little noisy but was not that bad where you had to ask to turn the music down
Food was ok, not bad, not great..just ok.
Steak was pretty tough.
Party of 11 for lunch and the super nice waitress handled everything wonderfully. Food and dessert-DELICIOUS and large portions. Atmosphere low key and easy to talk to everyone. Everyone loved the food and rolled out of there happy.
We have the same server every week, not sure of his name, but he is wonderful, he knows our drinks and it great!! We loving going on Monday's for wing night!
service in the bar area was poor as usual
Tasty food, large portions, friendly service. Good wings.
We enjoyed eating at Marley's.
Live in the area
Had enjoyed selection of wings they offer. Will return.
Food prepared fresh, was served piping hot, it was delicious! Our server Victoria was wonderful, we enjoyed our meal very much. Thank you!
Large Portions!
a bit noisey but resterraunt was busy server was acomadating
S L O W service, food and bar. Food was OK though
Service was very poor! Restaurant was not busy at all and it took a long time to be get drinks and be served. Also, plates were not cleared from table and had to ask to have water glasses refilled
Food is usually good but the hambergers were dry and burned..almost looked like deep fried (6/26/12) Told them about it, nothing done, asked if they had new cook..said no.
I'll go again
We will definitely be eating at Marley's Gotham Grill again!
Service was extremely slow. Took excessive amount of time to get drinks, fries were forgotten and came out after the rest of the meal was finished.
Waitres was excellent food was very tasty.
kinda took a long time to get out. check, box, pay.
We were there for lunch. We waited a while for our food to be served. I don't feel it was a reflection on our waitress, but more the kitchen was a little overwhelmed.
Food was great, atmosphere very relaxing. Servers were on top of everything. And very accomodating.
Very nice dinner. Had an enjoyable night out. Thanks.
sERVICE WAS EXCELENT. FOOD WAS MEDIOCRE.
Food WINDERFUL, service great!
The food and service was great. The best philly steak I ever had.
Great service, cute restaurant with a great atmosphere and the wings were fantastic!
Bartender was very good and personable. Waitress was slow and had an attitude, would definitely not sit at a table when she was working.
very large portions
the unlimited salad was very good, and I enjoyed the grilled salamon with mango salsa
Honey BBQ wings!
Local College with student attending the school.
I can NOT wait to go back to Marley's with my sons and with friends. The menu had so many great options it was hard to choose. Our server was sweet and attentive and the food was fantastic!!! Two thumbs up!!
Server was excellent. I think his name was Tom
Food & portions were very good.nice freindly atmisphere.
Hamburger bun was stale and hard. Fries were cold. Wings were good. Ribs were good.
The calamari was excellent. The restaurant is having an identity crisis. Part diner, trying to be upscale, odd choice in music, disjointed decorating. Staff could use better training.
Awesome food!
food was plentiful, freshly made and tasted good
The restaurant was great. Server was fantastic, food was exceptional. Great experience!!!
nice lunch..would go back for lunch or dinner
OVERALL dining experience was good ... service was excellent, good food choices available, nice specials. Only complaint was that my food (the salmon special) was a little on the cool side when it got to me ...
Enjoyed all would go back server was very attentive. excellent experience
What a great place!
Just felt a little rushed -- we were barely done with our appetizer when the main meal came. Wish we had 10-15 minutes in between to then appreciate main meal. This is the second time that happened there.
much improved from our last visit. VERY happy!
The burgers were much smaller than the bun and fish of the fish and chips was over-cooked. Other than that, it was a great place. Wings were outstanding!
wings were A+++
Great experience. We ate here over 4o years ago when it was The Cottage."
Food was excellent, as usual. Service in bar area is always a bit slow.
The bar tender on Saturday afternoons is fantastic.
The wings are amazing!
food was very well presented wine was also great
Great wings
Would not recommend or return
servers need to be more attentive
Did not receive our appetizers, food took over a half hour to arrive, waitress blamed the chef for all the issues and never apoligized. The manager also blamed the chef and said it was because they were busy, however, when we arrived there were only two other tables that had already received their food so we were essentially the only table there. Will definitely not return.
Good service, large portions, interesting menu
We come here about every other week on a Wed or Thurs and always enjoy it. Tonight we brought our daughter who lives out of town and it was a total disaster. From the Dirty Martini's brought to us with orange vodka in them (!) to the wrong and cold order on my part. (crab cake) when I asked for tartar sauce ( I think they usually give rumelade.) they didn't have it (!) and the chef said he won't make it so he gave us a sour cream dressing. (ew) What's so difficult about mayo and relish???? My husband ordered the Salmon which was dry and salty so he decided he'd have a bowl of cereal when we got home. Seriously! I asked it there was a different chef and found there was.Apparently he was from their "other" Restaurant. He wouldn't even TRY to make things better for us. They also had 1 waiter on the night before a major holiday and he was brand new. We are SO disappointed. This is our local go-to restaurant and we're pretty much going to take a nice long break from there.
Menu was a great mix of meals and prices. Wish they would open for breakfast. Not many morning places in Hackettstown.
The Restaurent ambience is very good and typical American grill. We enjoyed the leisure time and the good service by the people. Thank you
Took a long time for the food to come out.
What a hidden gem! very charming . . nice outdoor seating area on Main st . . great menu! loved the chicken scampi and mako dish!
pasta dish chicken parm way to salty.not much meat on nachos
