Y Maerun in Newport

Great food, lovely desserts. Had a very good Sunday lunch here. Will definitely revisit.

Great food with a lovely atmosphere. Friendly staff.

Friendly staff good pub food dog friendly nice garden close to railway line .

Had a booking last night 23/08/2024 for my Sons 18th Birthday, We hired the back room as close to 30 of us so as you can imagine 30 people sitting down to have a meal can be hard work, However I have to say the staff got it spot on, Not a single person there had a bad word to say about the food everyone said it was lovely, It all come out on time the starters and mains and the staff was so accommodating and polite even having to deal with some who had a few beers 🤣 I can’t thank them all enough for helping make it a special evening for my son. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Y Maerun, and I must say, it was an unforgettable culinary experience. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was inviting, with a warm and cozy atmosphere that immediately put us at ease. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure every aspect of our dining experience was perfect. Now, let's talk about the food. Oh my goodness, where do I even begin? Each dish was a masterpiece, bursting with flavor and expertly prepared. From the appetizers to the desserts, every bite was a delight to the senses. The chef truly knows how to elevate each ingredient to create dishes that are both inventive and comforting. While some might lament the lack of a view, I found that the restaurant's charm more than made up for it. In fact, it almost added to the intimate atmosphere, allowing us to focus entirely on the delicious food and the company of our dining companions. What truly sets Y Maerun apart, however, is the fact that we stumbled upon it by chance initially, but after our first visit, we made it a point to find it again. That's how extraordinary the dining experience was - it's the kind of place you just can't wait to return to. If you're looking for a culinary adventure that will tantalize your taste buds and leave you craving more, look no further than Y Maerun.

We are just on our way home from a weekend in Cardiff and we stay at Ty-Coch camping & caravan site. Maria & Nigel recommended this restaurant/pub a few years ago when we first started coming and we have visited every year since. The staff are friendly efficient and the food is very good. Had we not been late we would have had 3/3 evening meals here ! We highly recommend this restaurant and look forward to future visits.

As a 'Cuckoo' I'm always skeptical about 'the south' but this great country pub on the outskirts of our capital serves good food and beer. Thank you Maerun.... wonderful 👍🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁿

A lovely evening with fantastic food, both main course and dessert, and very friendly service.

Lovely meal at the Y Maerun today, gorgeous outside area & super friendly staff..win win 👍

So underrated!! Beautiful pub, relaxed and friendly, food is beautiful and so affordable. Im talking a fiver for a massive jacket potato filled to the brim. Serve a great pint too.

Welcoming friendly staff and the food was excellent quality and very reasonably priced. Would definitely recommend

Went to see the Michael Jackson show. We really enjoyed it.

Superb Pub and Even Better Landlord! Will definitely be back. Also the most huge and adorable I've come across in many a year, wow. 👍💯

It's a lovely place to eat inside and out.

Great food and great friendly location. Amazing Quiz Night on a Wednesday.

5 out of 5 Last minute decision to eat out, hadn't been here for a few years and not disappointed. Excellent service and very tasty food. Had a quiz night and the atmosphere was very good Can't recommend this place enough

Absolutely superb Their Madras was exquisite

On holiday locally. Fantastic food. Great service. Good value. We will definitely be back. I’m coeliac and the gluten free menu was good and staff knowledgeable.

I just had a Sunday dinner with my Fiancée an my two little ones. I turned up without a booking on the off chance that they had space, and managed to get a table. from start to finish I cannot fault the staff one bit so accommodating and did everything that was requested of them and more, the food was exemplary, I don't think to date I have had a better Sunday roast, looked amazing when it was brought to the table tasted even better (the sweede and carrot mash was to die for) I did try to get the recipe to no avail 😂 and portion sizes were very generous. I didnt finish mine completely and instead took it home to finish. along with all our deserts to warm at home. what more could anyone ask for for me that was 5 🌟

Lovely salad at Y Maerun this evening. Chicken, strawberry and lots of other stuff. Whoever thought chicken and strawberry go together!

The food choice and quality is amazing, the staff are super friendly and I can't stop telling everyone I know about this place! 10/10

Unassuming little restaurant in the Welsh countryside that just happens to have a Michelin star. The service was excellent and the meal delicious.

I had an amazing brunch today at a cozy country pub. The staff was very friendly and I highly recommend trying the eggs benedict dish, it was absolutely delightful! 🌟🌟🌟🌟

Probably one of, if not the best Sunday lunches I’ve had in a pub. Absolutely perfect & very good value. Service was friendly and efficient. Well done to you & your team. Booooootiful.

Excellent food! Wife's burger, kids nuggets and burger respectively, and my balti, all from from a very wide menu. 1st time we've been there, and looking forward to going again 👏 Plus the guy running the bar and taking orders (it was 5pm, before the extea staff came on), was absolutely superb as well.

Wot a pub, my new home....... Amazing experience all round.

Great food . Of you can find it pop in and enjoy great food.

Held my son's surprise 50th birthday get together here on the 29th march. Room was fab , staff can't do enough for you. Food exceptional, large portions and good prices. Would highly recommend the Y Maerun.

Fantastic friendly service! Food was good and cosy little table up the stairs. Real melted cheese on the nachos and some chilli would have been best! But that’s just personal preference.

Had a lovely catchup with a dear friend and really enjoyed our food there 😊

Great family run pub. Food is always beautiful and doesn't taste like typical microwave pub grub you can tell its cooked freshly. Alys always looks after us and makes sure we are all catered for. Bonus as its dog friendly!

Four adults and two small children. We ate here today. Lovely wine, beer and soft drinks. The food was excellent and great atmosphere. Attentive bar and dining staff. All good. Thank you.

Great food at reasonable prices, friendly staff, definitely recommend

The team were great. Really helpful & friendly. Gorgeous food! We all loved it. The sticky toffee pudding was amazing ! Red velvet cheesecake & burgers are always a winner Thank you

Nipped in for some burger and chips, greated by friendly staff and a very happy dog! Happy days!

Beautiful place . Friendly staff and the food never disappointed ❤️

Another year and another fantastic Christmas dinner. Great staff and service food was incredible thanks so much!!

Lovely meal tonight I and my friend had the lamb. Hubby had burger with peanut butter! 1 fudge brownie. 1 fudge cake and 1:meringue. We all enjoyed whilst friends hubby home sick… next time our friend… see you soon. Entertainment really good but needed to leave for friends poorly hubby…..X

Went today for team meal it was beautiful service excellent and great staff to boot, we will be back

I've never been here before, I never knew it was there. I've passed the place lots of times, We had a gorgeous lunch. Service was amazing. Food and desert very good.😋 😋 😋 I definitely will go back again.

Never fails been here alot quality and good service that's all anybody wants

Landlord exceptionally helpful and welcoming, service was great, food was fantastic. The Sunday lunch was excellent and very tasty, portions were great, meat cooked to perfection. Definitely will return.

Ths was I think the Port o Call and I wish the name had been kept as don't like the Welsh name. Food was OK but the environment was too hot. Located in Marshfield adjacent to the main rail line from Newport to Cardiff.

The Y Maerun is one of those local pubs that just gets everything right. A warm welcome with every visit from all the staff. It’s now become our regular local, as the staff are attentive, friendly and up for a friendly bit of banter. The food is consistent excellent and very good value for money. I love the chicken fajitas as they come on a sizzling cast iron tray with a heap full of bell peppers, onion, and melt in the mouth chicken breast chunks with Cajun seasoning to die for! Tonight the cook Callum made a special vindaloo curry that was hot but not crazy hot and warmed up all the senses. One of the best I’ve ever tasted. I cannot recommend this country pub enough. They have regular live bands, special meals and evenings where the place is buzzing with locals and visitors having a great time. The Sunday roasts are cooked with love and taste like ya mum made it! I’m a fan as you can tell, because having a friendly local with consistently excellent food and service is something to shout about, well done to the whole team!

Proper old school pub, amazing food, quick service and excellent value. Will be a regular for me now!

Fabulous Sunday lunch, whole chicken, stuffing, roasties, pigs in blankets, parsnips, new potatoes, broccoli, carrots and cabbage, gravy for £24. Dessert chocolate orange torte, scrumptious. Proper old school home made cooked food. Great friendly service, like a pub should be in my eyes. Everyone treated equally. This will be a regular, not many pubs like this any more. Definitely worth a visit for weekday now too!! Home from home.

Love eating here ,great that we can take our dogs in with us.

Always great food and service...

Visited recently for a Sunday Roast and was not disappointed! Fantastic service and atmosphere as ever, and the food was brilliant. A whole roast chicken for two, with all of the sides and trimmings, deliciously and quickly cooked. Fantastic value for money too! We will definitely be coming again!

Great pub, great food and great service 👍

As we were camping locally we decided to visit this 'close by' pub for a rare meal out. I chose a 'specials' dish from the blackboard - BBQ pork ribs with Cajun chicken and spicy wings. When asked if all was alright I answered ' yes thank you' however at this time I had not tasted the pork ribs. I soon discovered that the ribs were inedible. They were extremely tough with gristle with barely any seasoning. I did attempt to eat them but could not cope with such a poorly prepared food. The Cajun chicken and spicy wings were ok but did not make up for ribs. In an effort to make the dry dish mor palatable I asked a male barman if I could please have some BBQ sauce. He forgot and was reminded again before the sauce arrived. Needless to say my meal was not finished. The forgetful barman collected our plates and again asked if everything had been ok. I informed him that the ribs were inedible and I had left them. He inspected the ribs and said he would inform the chef. Nothing more was said to us until we went to pay for the meal. The barman then said it is a shame we are paying the bill as the 'chef WAS going to ask if you wanted a complimentary dessert'. We paid and left and vowed not to return to pub. A shame as we are frequent visitors to the area.

Very happy every vist I have made

Food did not taste right, only selected menu.

The burger and chips I had , had no flaver to them and the lasagna was mostly melted cheese and no mince and hardly any pasta . Most disappointed

Great food, I ordered from the tapas menu. staff were really friendly

Only popped in for a pint, so I don't know much about the place. The menu looks good and interior is nice, also a large outside patio/ dining area.

Great Chicken Roast sharer in a great garden setting. Great range of beers and ciders. Great little pub

Stunning little country pub in the heart of Marshfield. Beautiful interior, nice menu with plenty to choose from. Lovely beer garden with facilities for the kids . Had the chicken tikka masala, it came with half rice and half chips with popudum pieces . If you fancy a drive out into the country then I recommend this place 👌

Went for lunch after a nice drive along the coast rd.had a blt very nice .Good atmosphere good menu options friendly staff

What a little gem of place, good food, excellent service.ade to feel very welcome and also staff had good knowledge of Gluten Free

Waitress was lovely. My BLT wasnt brilliant, bacon very tough. Other meals were fine.

Had a Sunday lunch here was really good,was a last minute booking even though was really busy at the time made room for me,service and food was excellent need to come back soon!!

Lovely lamb, nice atmosphere and garden

Good service but overpriced for Easter Sunday roast, swimming in watery gravy with soggy veg.

Lovely pub - great food, friendly staff and great service.

Great Sunday lunch. Limited choice of meats.

Lovely food, friendly staff, just a little chilly in there today. Enjoyed it though.

Great food but pub was a bit chilly

Really good service on Saturday night, plenty on the specials board... Log burner going full blast kept us really warm.

First time visiting Saturday lunch time enjoyed the visit. Food was okay nice beers. One Negative thing the chief should make home made chips would make a big difference. Nice friendly staff.

Service good, food tasty... would give it 5 stars but food portions are a bit hit and miss every time I visit....need to sort their portion control, otherwise great pub to visit

Lovely evening with family, food was excellent but could have had it twice

Went for a christmas lunch with work and every meal was spot on, not one single complaint. Bar staff and waitresses were friendly and provided an amazing service. Definelty recommend, will be coming here more often as will other colleagues from work.

Great pub serving fabulous food . Friendly locals and staff . Great for a meal or for a pint

Festive three course lunch was amazing. Plenty of well cooked and presented food. Fab service and staff too.

Very Welcoming and Friendly There was a big group of us visit including lots of children and they could not be more helpful, they also made a fuss of the birthday involved. Highly recommend a visit. Fantastic for all ages even have a small farm area and park for the children to enjoy.

Good food, and great service from UBER polite staff. Will certainly be back.

Friendly atmosphere, friendly staff, reasonable prices. Not much else to say, give it a try

We were just having a drive about had been to the lighthouse and just took the road to y Maerun by mistake. We stopped as it Was lunchtime wow what a lucky mistake we made, we had salmon bruschetta delicious, presentation was perfect. I had cod husband had chicken skewer a piece of art in itself, both were well presented, staff were friendly and attentive but were not over the top. Only one tiny moan is the table was slightly tacky this was from not being dried properly after being sprayed when being cleaned.

A really nice little place with friendly service and good pub food.

took my mother and 9 yo daughter here Saturday, really friendly atmosphere, plenty of parking spaces, and the food was fantastic, overall a great experience and would recommend!

Walked all way there 30 mins walk and closed says opens at 12 and it was 230

Really nice pub with lovely staff and good food would highly recommend.

Lovely little pub, tucked out the way. Great food

Buena comida y buena relación calidad precio

Really great find. Pleasant and helpful staff. Great portions for a Sunday lunch, will definately go back. Food was great.

Three of us called in having pre booked lunch. Met by a smiling Alys (assuming it was Alys, as that was the name on the bill) who showed us to our table. Drinks were ordered and arrived very quickly. Two of us had the skewers which looked more like an art installation than a meal so beautifully were they presented. They were also delicious. Desserts were just as tasty with plenty of choice all brought by a permanently smiley and very pleasant Alys, despite it seeming as though she was the only one serving. The chips could have been a bit longer cooked but that's a minor detail. We will definitely return here. Thank you.

Visited for a business lunch yesterday. Lovely food, great service and very welcoming staff. Good, simple, traditional food. Will be back.

Could do with having the play area coverd but other than that good food

Lovely food, really friendly staff. Beautiful hanging baskets and flowers everywhere.

I was there on 26/7/22 afternoon,nice fish n chips and the waitress was amazing so friendly

First time visit, really enjoyed it, food was great, good selection of drinks and reasonably priced. Bring the grandchildren next time time and use the large outside space

Lovely little pub hidden off the main roads lovely beer garden and food is decent too. Nice hidden little gem to stop off for a beer and some decent food

Cycled from the campsite nearby which recommended here. Very friendly staff, and good vegetarian options. Thank you 😊

Nice pub with acceptable menu. Very friendly staff.

Bit on pricey side peanuts in a cup food good tho
