The OSM name 'Maquinna Pub' differs from the website's consistent branding 'The MAQ Pub', so the website value is used per rule 12. No cycling-specific amenities (bike parking, water refill, food menu, Wi-Fi) are mentioned anywhere on the website or in OSM tags; the venue is a nightlife bar focused on live music, karaoke, and pool with no food service described.","concerns":["OSM name is 'Maquinna Pub'; website consistently uses 'The MAQ Pub' — website value used, OSM name flagged.","OSM opening_hours (Su-Tu 18:00-24:00, Th-Sa 18:00-01:00) conflict with hours on the website; not included per rules but may indicate stale OSM data.","No food menu mentioned anywhere on the website — venue appears to be a drinks and entertainment bar only.","Address and phone were absent from OSM; values sourced from website only."],"recommended_status_reason":"The MAQ Pub is a legitimate evening bar in a popular cycling destination, but the website describes no food service, no cycling amenities, and no daytime service — limiting its practical value for touring cyclists.
