| All previous reviews can be ignored as the pub is currently closed for refurbishment, "reopening as a pub eventually" Baldrick1 - 5 Mar 2013 16:31 |
| All reviews below dated before November 2010 more or less are rendered useless by the incredible turn around that this pub has seen over recent weeks. The new managment have quite simply transformed this pub, with GREAT FOOD, GREAT BEERS AND MOST OF ALL, VERY, VERY FRIENDLY SERVICE. We have spent a few evenings now at the "New" Maybush and would recommend it to anyone, whether living locally or passing through the area and looking for a nice pub stop on your travels. Thanks again to the new landlord and family for making what should have already been a good pub into a GREAT one!!! langinbari - 16 Jan 2011 10:49 |
| The food is really, really good, apparently the new chef has worked at The Randolf Hotel in Oxford and also at Petit Blanc, so whilst not fancy, just traditional pub food, the quality is fabulous. We were told that even the chips are hand made everyday from Maris Piper potatoes and then cooked in clean oil, certainly nothing frozen here. The sunday roast we enjoyed yesterday was well priced at �9.95 for two courses which included Rib or Beef, or Sirloin of beef, or Leg of Pork and their were four vegetarian / fish options too. The sticky toffee pudding with double cream and a strawberry garnish my wife and I had was to die for!! The Landlord and his wife run this quaint riverside pub with their son, a real family affair and providing you book well in advance we can highly recommend it. Friendly, clean, and affordable but only 9 out of 10 as the carpark is a little tired. Dog friendly and right by the River Thames Path, ideal for walkers and boaters too, with free mooring.

| Used this pub three times over the last four weeks, once just for drinks at lunchtime and twice for dinner. Didn't get the landlord's name, but it's a shame they can't clone him and instal copies elsewhere. Couldn't be more pleasant, helpful and friendly. Really enjoyed each visit. The food is completely unrecognisable from the previous review and not overpriced. Can recommend the Steak pie - proper pastry, not one of those bowls of casserole with a hat! The beer was spot on too. We also visited the Rose Revived and without complaint, but the Maybush is by far the better pub and we wouldn't hesitate to go there again. villageidoit - 7 Jul 2010 11:57 |
| The last line of my review should read: So anyone who can't get a table at the far superior Rose Revived (but still with some problems) should just wait longer or try another day - DO NOT WASTE YOUR CASH AT THE MAYBUSH! Incidentally, the ignorant couple at the table for eight had to move when the noisy, ignorant daytrippers swamped the place. I notice the lnew landlord is on this site trying to drum up business. I suggest he drastically improves the food, drops the Smash, gives everything the menu described (onions, tatare sauce etc) and employs another/more chefs. I don't think Ruth can cope with or without 'the Chinese chef'. oxfordbull - 3 May 2010 16:09 |
