A family pub since 1851 and bearing one of England’s oldest ancestral names, The Maynard Armsin Crouch End has reopened with a bright new look that blends original design features with a menu full of bold flavours and a superior drinks list.
Pull Up A Chair
Leave the leafy streets of Crouch End behind and enter a comforting pub filled with Chesterfield sofas, intimate booths and a relaxed atmosphere. Stop for a pint at the wood-clad bar, find your favourite table on the raised decking or breeze through to the airy dining room to discover an array of plush velvet banquettes and deep leather seats just waiting to be sunk into. If you’re feeling brave this winter, head to the expansive heated terrace.
Let’s Eat
Whether you’re after a laid back Sunday lunch, intimate dinner or buzzing Friday night, The Maynard Arms has it covered.
Begin with delectable small plates of crispy fried squid with rich roasted garlic, fragrant curry leaves and lime coriander chilli dressing; or miso glazed rabbit with pickled red cabbage and a tangy tarragon and mustard dressing. Equally impressive mains include traditional charter pie filled to the brim with chicken, ham hock, mushrooms, leeks and a tarragon cream sauce; or the lighter baked Devon crab with fried oysters and fennel mayonnaise.
Make sure to leave room for indulgent puddings like Bramley apple and blackcurrant parfait with crunchy granola crumble, honey yoghurt and a sprinkling of bee pollen; or a zingy lemon curd Eton mess with white chocolate and roasted pistachio nuts.
On Sundays, enviable roasts are on offer with a choice of chicken, beef or pork belly, served with all the trimmings, whilst vegetarians can opt for a butternut squash and nut roast.
Pints Please
At the bar, discerning drinkers will find a collection of craft brews on tap including Camden Hells, Neck Oil and Estrella with bottled beers including Kona’s Longboard and Big Wave. A superb selection of spirits and wines complete the offering.
Deck The Halls!
Take the stress out of Christmas party planning and let The Maynard Arms’ team of highly skilled little helpers do the work.
