The Rose Revived Restaurant and Bar in West Oxfordshire

Dropped in without booking, but were welcomed and quickly given a table. Plenty of choice on the menu. Efficient and friendly service from Evie.

Celebrating a milestone birthday we chose the Rose Revived as a nice location to eat and share in the company of family and friends. We were not disappointed the pub/restaurant is clean and has a lovely welcoming atmosphere and Fiona and the team were attentive and friendly throughout our visit. The selection of drinks on offer is as you would expect and served in some lovely glassware as opposed to your more usual glasses. Water for the table and the freedom to decorate also added to the occasion and ambience. Each and every course was delicious and the portions were more than ample for the price, every single one of us was content and full. Thank you again to Fiona and the team for making us feel so welcome what a wonderful evening in a very pleasant setting.

Great service and great food Evie was amazing! Lovely evening with my mate after work! Will be returning in the future!!

Excellent lunch and service thanks Aimee. Nice setting cosy pub with good vibes. Birthday lunch for hubbie perfect for us

Excellent food and great service from Fanni who looked after us very well. Had a great time and enjoyed the food and real fire.

We were here for a pub meal only and had a simple late lunch. The menu was standard pub meals. The pub was busy and the service was a bit slow, but we got what we ordered, and enjoyed a walk along the river nearby afterwards.

The whole 3 course meal was ridiculously delicious complement to the kitchen staff and also to the bartender Harvey very welcoming and professional .

Amazing from start to finish, Phil and all the team couldn't do enough. Phil's charm charisma makes it worth the visit. Thank you

Thank you to Evie and for the delicious food and wine! Fantastic service by Evie! The puddings wee amazing! Thank you! See you again!

At the restaurant for my sister’s birthday. The waiter Robert was absolutely great. He interacted with the family and we had a great time. The food as always was wonderful and the portions were great. Highly recommend this restaurant and the waitstaff.

lovely pub in a beautiful setting right by the river Thames. Such a shame that the food on offer did not match the rest of the experience. There were 4 of us and we ate the pies on offer at the time. The chicken, leek and cheese was not very good, the top was puff pastry or had been at one time and the bottom was soggy where the small amount of filling had seeped into it, this was accompanied by withered pieces of asparagus and some inedible radish together with a selection of chips which were either overcooked or undercooked. It could and should have been a nice meal. The other pie on offer was very overcooked but the vegetables accompanying it were edible. the beer I would have like had run out and the Italian lager on tap was watery and nothing like the offering normally in bottles. The female servers were pleasant enough. not good enough for the price charged.

Definitely not the best lunch… we order 2x garlic mushrooms, steak sandwich and chicken bacon sandwich. Definitely using rations here and can’t seem to have fresh food for lunch customers. I couldn’t cut my mushroom with a butter knife it was so hard! And my sourdough was baldy burnt (all black on one side) , the side they obviously didn’t have showing on the plate. This was the same for the other mushroom dish. The sandwiches had 3 scraggly bits of steak meant to be medium rare but tough as old boots. And one small streak of bacon in the other. Could have got more filling from a Tesco meal deal sandwich! Wouldn't waste money here again - service was non existent. Hygiene shocking!!! Had to replace 3x glasses due to old food stuck on them. I understand outside it’s hard to keep clean under the trees but bird poo was just everywhere on tables on chairs. They all could do with a wipe each morning. I had to clean my table with hand sanitizer and tissue as no one was in sight the dirt that came off it was appalling! Will go over the road next time :)

Lovely lunch with view of the river. Lots of choice on the menu Great service from AJ and Lucy, nothing was too much trouble.

Where do I start! The food for 2 of the dinners was OK. Now for the reason for the poor score, the staff looked scruffy, not all of them but enough to create a poor impression. My main was supposed to a special but it was burnt and sent back. I was told a new one was 5/6 minutes away but it took over 15 minutes to arrive. The overall offering was poor, 2 bullets of Leek sitting on dry bubble &squeak with a piece of bacon. The menu doesn’t offer any mixed vegetables as a side. At no point did a manager bother to come an apologise. We won’t be tempted by Chef & Brewer anytime soon.

The food here is incredible. My server, Ella, was amazing, very attentive and charming. Will definitely be coming back

Had not been to the Rose Revived for years but will be going again soon! Good varied menu, value for money, spacious restaurant area excellent service by Fi and of course a wonderful location! Definitely worth a visit.

Very attentive staff and good good value for money . Lots of food and unable to finish as so plentiful. Pleasant setting just by the river

We arranged to meet our daughter at this lovely pub/ restaurant . The service from Fi & Lewis was excellent. Our steaks were cooked to perfection ,. The food, delicious & we enjoyed our drinks too. The setting of the Rose Revived is amazingly beautiful. We will definitely visit again.

The lovely riverside location and the tempting menu promised so much, but was so disappointing. Firstly the advertised rose wine was not available, then after a long wait the mains were not as described. My companion's pork belly "marmalade glazed" with a side of "buttery mash and charred hispi cabbage and herb roasted carrots" was a small overcooked pork chop with a teaspoon of mash and a couple of broccoli spears...no cabbage, no carrots. I particularly wanted asparagus, so I ordered the hake, but it arrived with 4 broccoli spears and no asparagus at all. Staff were ridiculously overstretched, so when we tried to complain they were unable or unwilling to do anything further than a rushed apology. The whole experience was really disappointing, I wish we had gone to a less glamorous nearby establishment.

11/05/24 Me and my boyfriend visited today as it is our anniversary. A beautiful place with the river and outdoor seating however, when food arrived there was plastic in his food and his starter did not come! When he spoke to staff they swore and walked off! No apology and they did not return to speak to us! Absolutely disgusting. Hesitant to visit again.

Went for lunch today - or at least tried to. Hoped to order off the main menu and eat in the garden but that’s not allowed. Apparently only eating on the patio is an option, even offered to collect my food from the patio and walk it the 5m to the grass but this wasn’t allowed either because “everyone around you will want food and they can’t cope with the demand”. Ended up with a packet of crisps, which can be eaten on the grass thankfully. Never heard anything so ridiculous and no wonder this place only has 3 stars!!!

went on a dog walk and decided to stop at the rose for a couple of drinks and some food. We've been here before, the food and service has improved beyond a doubt. We were met by a friendly lady who attended to our needs, said we can eat inside or out so we chose outside as it was such a nice day. We ordered steak baguette with chips which was very good. The waiter who brought our food to the table turned out to be the manager, Lewis, he was very friendly and really enthusiastic in regards to customer service. We also spoke to two other members of staff who were busy clearing tables but found the time to have quick chat about the local area. It was such a refreshing experience to find such good service.

As per usual. No staff, waited 10 minutes for service. Only wanted a coffee and told machine not working. Was it out of order or because of lack of staff, as usual, just said no because it was easy and they couldnt be bothered. Under new nanagement but still got staffing issues!!!!

Iv stopped by this pub for over a year on and off on the off chance I might get in for dinner but it’s all ways been fully booked . But a few weeks ago I managed to get in Luke if I remember his name right found me a table and wow I can see why it’s all ways fully booked . Dinner was fantastic. I had short rib on the bone which just fallen off the bone with all the trimmings was absolutely delicious and Luke was a great server. Nothing was too much trouble for him . a beautiful little pub right beside the river lovely and clean and the staff makes you very welcome . I will hundred percent be returning. But this time I’ll make sure I book so I get in for my Sunday dinner.

Lovely location. Reduced menu at the time, probably before June 2023 and sadly limited options for vegetarians. I had halloumi fries and had to make a meal using 2 starters. Halloumi fries were unfortunately overcooked. 😕

Lush food, served by Jake who was very helpful and prompt with service. Quiet relaxed atmosphere and decent prices. Will definitely be back.

Great service from Lewis, nice food, lovely atmosphere, picturesque setting. Well done, we will certainly visit again. 👍

This pub is under new management and what a special place it is. The staff are all so friendly and welcoming, Lewis and his co-manager are focused on happy staff/happy customers. We finished here at the end of a long Thames Path Walk - great range of drinks, delicious food, our dog was allowed to join us in the bar and the experience was so much better than previous reviews - hats off to Lewis and the whole team. Now for some sunshine as that waterfront seating area looks so inviting. Thank you!

A very good setting by the river and a very enthusiastic young team and very welcoming and all with very good food. Perfect… I heartily recommend the whole experience.

The staff were so helpful and were very polite. Lewis was very friendly and professional and were efficient with our orders.

Lovely atmosphere, stunning views, great service and amazing food. Will definitely be back. Lewis was our waiter and he was very professional.

We used this establishment to recharge our batteries and unfortunately for our last day in England as we moved to the Isle of man however the staff and the food are exclusive we also stay for the night absolutely fantastic even being near a busy...

Pleasant Saturday Night Out Very good service from Jake, pleasant not rushed. I come here a lot and the atmosphere is always good. Good choice of food and drinks on the menu for my liking. Food is nice but getting more expensive, especially as it...

Food was great, busy Sunday but food didn’t take long to come out! Server Lewis was helpful and attentive. Real shame that the kids playground has been taken down as this was a major drawcard to keep the kids busy.

Lovely Sunday lunch with all the trimmings. A warm welcome on arrival and Lewis was an excellent host. Our table overlooked the Thames and gave a beautiful backdrop to relax and enjoy our visit

Jake was a good server class guy food was delicious. Nice country pub but Jake was better than anything the pub had to other

Had a lovely meal here with my family, Lewis our server was polite and friendly. The service was quick and the food was delicious! Would recommend and will definitely be returning.

Perfect for an afternoon and/or night out! Great customer services and food. Attention to detail lacked a little with some food and drink requests, but we're sorted quickly.

On Friday 12th April 2024 at 1830hrs my family and I attended the Rose Revived PH for my mum’s 73rd birthday. We brought with us a balloon and a cake so this was known to the staff. The restaurant was moderately busy and there were...

This review is not based on the food that I had as it was genuinely lovely. This is based on the staff and poor customer service skills. We have literally just left here and are as a family of 5. we have always eaten here...

We arrived today greeted by a big sigh a family of great grandmother grandparents 2 parent 3 older children no food advertised all day food hardly anyone here but refused us food

Very disappointing visit to this lovely riverside pub. The service was fine and our waiter was helpful and accommodating, but the wait for food and drinks was too long and the food was well below par - and very, very overpriced! My husband ordered the...

As regular customers to the ROSE REVIVED I’m sad to have to say that’s the worse meal I’ve had there.we arrived at 1530 and waited for 20 mins to be served eventually ordered when it finally came th3 brought out the wrong starters. The waitress...

Over priced and underwhelming. Food for a table of 5 took over an hour to arrive and then was incorrect. Staff friendly but don't eat here.

Have avoided this pub due to poor service for years. Was proved right again this evening. Despite booking we were turned away because the kitchen was understaffed. On one hand, understandable. On the other hand dreadful. Sort out your systems and don’t allow booking if...

Six of us came for lunch. Great menu with lots of choice. Although it is a big place, it has been really well laid out to offer comfortable, private dining areas. You don't feel rushed so a super place to catch up with friends. The food was excellent, the pie and mash was particularly worth a mention. We were blessed with sunshine and it was great looking out over the river.

Lovely pub, fantastic staff, reasonable prices, unfortunately average food. I ordered the Squid starter, served with Garlic and Lemon mayonnaise. This was edible but chewy and the dish would benefit from some attention to detail and presentation. This was followed with the Marmalade Glazed Belly Pork, which was well cooked but let down by the vegetables served with the dish. Overcooked and sad looking carrots, and the oddest Hispi cabbage I have ever had. Raw cabbage that had been blow torched to scorch the outside. Blanche/Refresh and dry the cabbage before scorching please. And again more attention to detail and presentation.

Unlike my last visit, this one was heaps better. We had the fish and chips which were hot and tasty, however my husbands first mouthful was full of bones. Fortunately it wasn't the same for me because I would not have been able to eat it. The staff were excellent, very polite and friendly.

Today on the off chance of a meal we stopped at this delightful pub by the river Thames. We were welcomed by the temporary manager who went above and beyond. There was no room in the restaurant but sat by the log fire. We ordered four roast dinners and we were not disappointed. We all agreed it was certainly a plate of food. Tasty and hot with good presentation. If we are in the area again we would not hesitate to call in again.

The staff were lovely, the ale was fine but the food was shameful - everything wrong with English cooking in a single sitting. Cheap burger, tossed in a bun, smothered in a blunt, hyper sweet sauce to cover its cheapness, and the some frozen chips and onion rings carelessly bunged on a plate. If it cost a fiver fine but it was £15.99. Outrageous. If you're stopping for a beer, fine, if you want to eat probably better off stopping at the M&S food at the garage down the road.

Decided to pop in for lunch on our way past, hoping to get a table overlooking the river. As we hadn't booked (it was less than half full), we were told we had to sit in the bar area with bar service only. We thought this was fair enough, but then all parties who came in after us were offered restaurant or bar area, even though they hadn't booked either. Even the ones with a dog were allowed to sit in the restaurant area and get table service. Service at the bar was incredibly slow, even to get a glass of water, I had 3 different people say "someone will be with you shortly". The food was quite nice so we may return but only if we can sit in the restaurant area where we might be entitled to better service!

Absolutely awful experience. There were 3 of us, ordered starters which came out after 45 minutes so quite a wait but didn’t mind. After this, we waited for 1.5 hrs for our mains, asked a few times where our food was but got the same answer each time “it is getting plated up” but still didn’t arrive for ages. When food did come out 2 plates out of 3 were stone cold. The vegetables were still raw. Couldn’t put the fork through the roast potatoes as was over cooked and rock hard. Told manager he refused to take back to kitchen to remake but did take them off the bill. Drinks were again poor service. Waited up to an hour for 2 drinks which were 2 fantas. Asked for a jug of tap water, which never came. When asked , apparently it was being made but never came. Really disappointed, been here several times with family a few years back and always had a great experience but really disappointed with this experience and would never go back again! Jake the waiter was lovely! I think the only good part of our experience!

Just enjoyed a lovely tea at the RR. Food was totally lush, mains and dessert so good. Robert was most entertaining as our waiter, competent and funny. Our main host Fi is just so lovely, she always looks after us so well on every visit. Love the banter she is so good natured and fun. Thank you all for a smashing evening.

Lovely family atmosphere! I would 100% recommend for anyone to visit. The vibe was warm and welcoming. The food was lovely, all cooked to perfection and it was so nice to be in a relaxing environment with my family. Special mention to Lewis, nothing was too much to ask, he's a real credit to the team. We will return when visiting family again.

Always a lovely atmosphere, lovely staff and lovely food! Summer there’s outside seating and winter cosy with a fire! Definitely recommend.

Lovely, comfortable accomodation overlooking the river. Lewis, the manager was polite and nothing was too much trouble. Great breakfast with many different options. Will be staying again.

I booked two rooms for a two night stay at the end of January via Booking.com for two staff members. I was informed by The Rose Revived on the day of the booking that they couldn't accommodate us as their gas supply had been cut off. I have been going back and forth between Booking.com and The Rose Revived trying to get a refund for the cancelled bookings. Booking.com have been very helpful, but can't issue the refunds until The Rose Revived confirm they cancelled the bookings. Unfortunately, The Rose Revived have ignored all correspondence from Booking.com and myself. So, here I am, nearly a month later over £300 owed to me and no further forward. It's safe to say that I will not be using The Rose Revived in future.

It is what it is and doesn’t pretend to be anything that it is not. After all it is part of a chain the ‘Chef & Brewer’. Service good (first lady anyway as 2nd lady, I think, was more interested in focusing on other things and really never made any attempt to interact. Not rude but just not ‘friendly’). And Food was OK as I say nothing special lots of fried food. Maybe getting pricier now though as my Squid starter was £7+ (and not much at all for it) and the Fish & Chips was £16, which in itself isn’t over the top, but it again wasn’t what I would consider £16 worth. Conversely the Sea Bass was good.

Struggling to find the words after experiencing the rudest waiting service I have ever come across. Three roast dinners, all very bland and served pretty cold. Roast potatoes more like boiled potatoes, cold rock hard Yorkshire pudding, a dribble of gravy and the only veg available were peas. Asked to speak to manager, waiter shrugged and said dunno where he is. Waiter explained they’d run out of all veg apart from peas, so we asked if they’d give us a cauliflower cheese instead and he said yeh if you pay extra for it. Like dealing with a sulky teenager, and when I asked for a tea spoon for my son he walked past and threw it on to the table. Eventually did get to speak to the manager who handled our complaint well and did deduct two meals off our bill plus giving us complimentary puddings. Local regular customers who won’t be coming back

Went for a sunday roast. Very quick and friendly service. Drinks and food arrived quickly. For the price you pay it’s a very decent roast. nothing fancy but not paying fancy prices so wouldn’t expect that.

Delightful Hostelry. A super warm welcome, jovial laughter and lots of conversation on entry. The food fish and chips and gammon were both delicious and hot. The waitress polite and knowledgeable. All in all an excellent pit stop. Will be returning in the spring.

Lovely restaurant pub to meet with friends. Good in summer and winter. Helpful staff and good menu. Worth a visit and good value

We stayed for two nights as we needed a nice getaway . The pub is very well decorated and the location is beautiful. We booked a Room with a view , it was tastefully decorated and well equipped with an iron hairdryer & a smart tv , however, we found that our mattress was really uncomfortable and the pillow's very hard so we had two poor nights sleep. We also found that there was a strong odour coming from the shower drain which was really quite unpleasant in the room , we could smell it throughout the landing on approach to our room so presume it’s an issue throughout the rooms . Bathrooms very small and needs some work around the shower seals which were mouldy. The bar and restaurant are lovely with big open fires , good selection of drinks , however on both nights the music was switched off at 10pm and we were asked to leave at 10:30 staff said they were closing ! we were surprised as it’s advertised that they close at 11pm and as we had paid to stay for the weekend we didn't really want to be rushed out the bar back to our room. We got the feeling it was that the staff wanted to go home early. Water in the room was rebottled tap water , would prefer sealed bottled water , as the bar shut early and there isn’t anywhere to get a cold drink afterwards you need to go prepared . We would definitely visit the pub again but unlikely we would stay over . We paid £276 for two nights with breakfast included ,booked directly via the hotels website , however we have seen that it’s actually £25 cheaper to book via booking.com .

Tried and trusted formula from the Chef & Brewer chain. Lovely sized room, tastefully decorated Tea & coffee facilities, hair dryer, iron & board, USB plugs. Staff are welcoming and friendly. Menu provides well for all diets and has a good variation of dishes. Hotel is 5 steps from the Thames and is in an amazing setting. Lovely peaceful stay Looking forward to seeing how it all looks in the summer

Wow, what an amazing meal. Husbands roast dinner was enormous, and my Korean chicken was the best meal I’ve eaten out in a very long time. Starters were so good too and importantly the food was piping hot, Kids all cleared their plates too. The Christmas special mulled wine spritzer cocktail also hit the spot! Thank you to Jake who was a great waiter and very attentive. We’ll be back again soon and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend. Thank you!

We came here 2 years ago for Boxing Day lunch and it was really nice. Unfortunately, this year it was different. It has been done up in that time, so the interiors were lovely, it had a nice cosy atmosphere. However, sadly, the food was quite average. One of the starters we ordered was supposed to be ham & chicken terrine on sourdough with a fig and pear chutney and crispy onions. It wasn’t on sourdough bread, and it had onion chutney. Not quite sure what happened to the translation. The Turkey with the lunch was cooked to perfection, but was probably the only nice thing about the entire meal. The veg was very mediocre, broccoli was hard and the potatoes were barely cooked. I’d expect roasties on a Christmas dinner to be crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Also would advise pre-booking your food choices - we were told by the staff when we booked in person that we didn’t need to do this, however, they somehow had no parsnips and no beef when we wanted to order, which I’m assuming this is because we hadn’t pre chosen our food. Another issue is that when you try to book on the phone you don’t get through to anyone - so don’t bother. It’s a shame, because other visits have been nice.

I booked this online for my friend and I to enjoy a catch up before Christmas. The booking process online with the pre ordering was very easy and organised. On the evening, our table was beautifully set up with Christmas crackers, and the female waitresses were very friendly and welcoming. The festive meal was so fantastic, very tasty and good portion size,we were so full!! The mulled wine spritz was delicious! Never had that before.. I'll now be heading to sainsbury's to stock up on mulled wine and blood orange soda!! Thank you all for a wonderful meal. We'll certainly be singing your praises and I hope to return very soon with more friends or family. Merry Christmas to you all, especially to chef who cooked a fabulous meal!!

Came with family this morning for 'Breakfast with Santa'. The pub was looking so lovely and Christmassy. Staff were lovely and attentive. Food amazing. The time with Father Christmas was brilliant, he took his time chatting to each child and the set up looked magical. Great value for money! We had a lovely time; thank you 😊

Beautiful location beside the Thames. A nicely decorated pub with friendly, helpful staff. Went for Christmas dinner. The food sadly was very average. Quantity over quality.

Great food. The automated booking process is good but you can’t make changes or add that you are bringing a dog. It won’t let you talk to a human. Overall very good food.

Food was sick af and our server Lina was a total babe, will be returning for another delicious dinner. P.s. we took our dog and she was living her best life

We went to the Rose Revived for a Sunday roast as a family. The whole experience was great. Quick service, the food was delicious and our server went out of his way to accommodate our requests. We had our two year old son with us and our server, Robert, was amazing with him, high diving, playing peekaboo and helping to entertain him. He made such a difference to our visit and our son adored him! Will definitely be returning!!

Love this place. Great people. Great location. Always a joy. Great in the summer. Maybe even better when the weather turns

We came here for an evening meal for our anniversary. Such a beautiful location, great atmosphere, lovely friendly staff and a really fabulous food menu. This ticked all the boxes for us and the quality of the food and choice available was excellent and really good value too. We will 100% be coming back!! Highly recommend!

The food was excellent. Beef, Pancetta & Red wine Lasagne, Steak & Ale pie, Beyond Burger, Vegetable Curry, Mushroom & Ale pie all from the Specials board. All were wonderful resulting in 5 empty plates. The deserts we equally good and we left with full tummies and smile on our faces. Staff were friendly and welcoming. We’ll definitely be back.

This will be the third time my wife and I have eaten here, and it was a treat her for her birthday. Previous visits have been exceptional, with amazing food and exemplary service, and we considered the Rose Revived to be our go to place for having great food in a relaxed environment. Not any more, and it's such a shame. We were seated, and then we ordered our food. When it turned up, we were so disappointed. My wife's food was just about passable, but mine looked like it had been thrown together without any care or attention, slightly undercooked with potatoes that were likely a couple of days old and thrown in the microwave and a side of very stale bread (which we were charged £1 for). Our waitress gave the impression that she didn't want to be there, and every member of staff walked around with faces like thunder, which made the atmosphere feel very frosty indeed. After we finished our food, we honestly couldn't wait to get out of there and go home. Once our favourite place to go, unfortunately we'll never go again. My wife's birthday meal was ruined, and I feel cheated that I had to pay hard earned money for poor food and even worse service.

My girlfriend and I visited the Rose Revived on a Sunday lunch after an organised drive with our local car club. The surrounding are very pleasant with the river next to the pub and the sun was shinning which added for a potentially nice lunch. The inside of the pub is very nicely decorated and welcoming. I had booked a table in advance, the man welcoming us to check our booking wasn't exactly welcoming, not a smile and somewhat abrupt manners didn't make for a good start of our lunch. After being shown to our table, the waitress, who was very friendly and engaging, arrived promptly and took our order, triple carvery for me and roast beef for my girlfriend. The food arrived fairly rapidly, which isn't always a good sign. I can't say that I was overly impressed with it. Although the meat was nice and tender, I can't say the same about the vegetables and potatoes. The supposedly maple syrup roasted carrots and parsnips were soft and tasteless, I couldn't taste the maple syrup, there wasn't much of it, one quarter of a small parsnip and about four or five small quarters of carrots. The potatoes were supposed to be roasted in duck fat with garlic and rosemary but again they were soft and barely roasted, they looked very pale, as for the duck fat, garlic and rosemary, the chef must have used the tiniest amount of it as I couldn't taste them. These are strong flavours but inexistant on that day. Everything looked like they had been microwaved. The Yorkshire pudding and cauliflower cheese were nice. Gravy made of granules I suspect. I have been in the catering trade as a chef for thirty years and served a lot of carvery so I have insight in how to cook a good one. I don't think that I would have lunch there again soon I'm afraid!

Good quality pub food, not the cheapest but surroundings very comfortable. Pleasant professional and fairly prompt service Would go back again

We went on a lovely Sunny lunch time for lunch so as to sit outside by the river. The area was shut off due to lorries. We parked and went inside and as there were a few tables available by the main door we asked to sit and have are lunch outside. We were told we had to sit inside to eat but could have a drink outside. I am now aware that the pub is closing on 9th May until 9th June for a refurb. So disappointing as also shut for Jubilee weekend.

Firstly I’d just like to say some people have no respect for others (a previous review by a clearly rude and under educated I can’t get exactly what I want when I want it person)It’s as polite as I could be Now on to my reviewI love this pub and that includes everyone who works there!! Same awesome service whether it’s packed out because the sun is shining or just a normal run of the mill Monday afternoon, I’d like to say thank you and well done Crispy chicken in a basket is beautiful and the Tribute is second to nonWe will see you again really soon

Came here for drinks and food with friends and had such a lovely time. The staff were attentive and the food was great - such a nice atmosphere to suit such a beautiful place.

Firstly, it was a beautiful day to go to the pub by the river. The food was amazing and even better when served by Dila and Adam. I will definitely be coming back and would recommend the chicken, served by Dila and Adam.

Stayed here for a couple of nights with friends, very friendly and helpful staff. Breakfast and dinner very good and service is excellent. Had various meals, Salmon Florentine, Cod & chips, pies, great selections. Desserts were too nice. Breakfast again plenty of choice and nothing is too much trouble if you have dietary needs. Thank you to all the staff for a lovely welcoming stay. Rooms 1 & 2 very comfortable and all you needed. Very picturesque with the Thames flowing at the back. Will be back.

Called in for Dinner lovely friendly staff . Ordered two fish and chips very tasty cooked to perfection. Great place highly recommended will be returning very soon .

We had a meal here after completing a stretch of the Thames Path walk. The environment was relaxed and welcoming. Our waiter, Theodore, was friendly, courteous and professional.

Arrived Thursday for a 2day break to recharge batteries,what a wonderful setting.from arriving to leaving 2days later ,was perfect in every way,the staff where very welcoming and couldn’t do enough for you the food was outstanding on all occasions from breakfast bar snacks and evening meal cannot recommended highly enough,The room was clean and very comfortable every thing you needed and more,a very enjoyable stay well done to all ,great to find a place that actually care about customers and not just for filling the tills,a breath of fresh air in these difficult times.will be returning during jubilee weekend can’t wait,once again thank you for a wonderful stay .

My husband and I recently moved to our retirement home in Kingston Bagpuize village, and decided to take the time to visit all the local spots for what my husband refers to as a 'proper pub lunch'. High up on our list were both the Maybush and the Rose Revived, either side of a gorgeous old bridge on the Thames. We had passed by the pub before when walking along the Thames Path, but missed the opportunity to pop in. We are yet to visit the Maybush but we made it to the Rose Revived on Monday lunchtime and left very impressed. The manager who greeted us at the door, Adam, was perfectly charming, as was the young man who served us at our table, Theodore. My husband and I can admittedly be quite tricky customers due to dietary restrictions but the staff made a great effort to accommodate us and we felt very comfortable. The food was fairly good, nothing spectacular but we couldn't have expected much more for the price. We're very glad to have a good pub in such a lovely location nearby and will certainly be returning soon.

Great visit, had lunch on Saturday and if was fantastic, love the steaks, service is fantastic.You never feel pressured or unwelcome, warm generous welcome at the door from the managers, the waiting staff are ready and waiting to take your orders and look after you.Can’t wait for my next visit, see you soon

This place just gets better and better, we ate today and the food was amazing, Sunday Roasts definitely great value for money and very tasty.Our server was lovely very attentive and quick, never had to wait for another drink, doesn’t matter where you sit all the servers are there for you.Credit where credit is due, well done to the team, managers and chefs.

We didn’t want a big wedding with lots of guests. We were looking for an location with a nice setting and a relaxing atmosphere. We have visited The Rose Revived over a number of years and it was at the top of our list.From making the the initial booking - for 16 guests - to the meal on the day the service was amazing.The menu and quality of the food was superb with a good choice. My wife and I are both vegetarians as were a number of our guests. The Vegan and Vegetarian choices were the best we have seen.Evie looked after us exceptionally well and made the day for us.

Very impressed with care, attention and desire to make sure all OK. Girls could not have done anymore. Thank you and well done.

We have been patrons of The Rose Revived for more than ten years. For any occasion that merits a family get together there's no better venue. Great value, fantastic menu and, usually, fabulous service.I say usually. This evenings visit, however, has prompted me to revise my opinion. Outstanding, would be a more suitable description of the attention we were afforded by a very special yoing lady. Jo made us feel as if our family group of 10, including our 5 and 6 year old grandsons, were her very reason for being. Courteous, polite and infectiously cheerfully pleasant, she looked after our table with able and easy professionalism. Ensuring our evenings repast progressed smoothly, monitoring our drinks and keeling abreast of our enjoyment of the wonderful fare, rarely have we felt so unhurriedly pampered. Thank you to the team at the Rose Revised for our great evening, but most of all for the brilliant ambassador that is Jo. She is a star of the brightest kind.Patrick and Julie Smith

Came on a fairly busy Saturday afternoon for lunch. Served promptly by Helen who made us feel extremely welcome and looked after for the visit but wasn’t overbearing. Food was absolutely top-notch, quality pub food and we all had clean plates at the end. Would highly recommend!

Lovely food and great service from Helen. Her smile was genuine! Mac and cheese rich and warming. Lovely view of the river. Good value for money

GOOD: friendly attentive staff, lovely location by river, food and drink good value, accommodation good and clean. SUGGESTED IMPROVEMENTS: milk alternatives other than soya.

Me and my girlfriend visited The Rose Revived for dinner on a date night. I’ll start on a high.We’ve been to this pub a few times before, beautiful location, cosy environment, and good food. However, on this occasion I was very disappointed. We ordered our starters and there was no problems there, same can’t be said for the mains. I ordered a steak, when the steak arrived it was very grey, and looked as if the pan hadn’t been hot enough before the chef attempted to cook it. It was very chewy and tough and not what I’d expect from a pub which had previously provided nice and well cooked food. My girlfriend’s food was a different story. The goats cheese tart was horribly bland, and was a poor attempt at a vegetarian main. Under these circumstances I would not of returned any food; I’m not one to return often. As she got through it, she encountered a part of the ‘tart’ (around 1/3 of it) that was too hard to cut through, I attempted and likewise it was too tough. A waitress came over and asked how the food was, I demonstrated how tough the tart was on one side. When I pressed the knife in, with a fair amount of force, nothing happened. I then lifted the knife up, the tart came up with it. After I asked the waitress, who in fairness was very friendly and attentive, if we could send it back, she obliged. A few minutes later, one of the ‘chefs’ came out the kitchen, started directly at us, and promptly walked back in. I’m writing this review because if a chef can’t understand why I’d send food back when a hacksaw was needed, he should of either provided an appropriate tool to eat with, or accepted a mistake and not give us a dirty look when we were waiting for the bill, and then again when we were exiting. In conclusion, the staff were very nice and friendly (with exception to the chef) and we were happy and enjoyed our starters. We will not be eating here again for a while.

We had a very relaxing and enjoyable family Boxing Day Meal, a warm welcome and the table we had requested. The service and food was excellent, I would definitely recommend the set menu, We will be visiting again very soon, wishing you all a very happy and healthy New Year…Carr family

I love coming here for lunch, the pub is really beautiful and the view outside even in the winter is nice to look at. Food and drinks are always nice & the team are always welcoming

I’ve not been into The Rose Revived for a little while & was looking forward to my recent visit with familyWe’d booked a table & were quickly shown to it. Not particularly friendly staff but not unfriendly either, got the impression just doing their job & perhaps not that happy (who knows maybe just a bad day) Starters of pate & grilled halloumi were ok, but I would guess prepared elsewhere & warmed up. Main course of pie & chips was perfectly ok, however the sea bass & peas risotto was tasteless & had clearly been bought in prepared & re-cooked as the peas were the weirdest shade of green & sea bass was not nice. Greene King pub so probably understandable. A real shame.

Great family meal. We booked last minute but the assistant manger Adam managed to fit us in, the service from start to finish was Fantastic and the food was just as good, the team seemed really on the ball making sure we al aye had everything we needed. A great family meal out.
