The food is wonderful, with VERY generous portions, the staff are fantastic (Hannah, the manager, is an absolute star who went out of her way to help us, she is a gem of a human) and it's a wonderful, cosy place to spend an afternoon. Could not recommend it enough! Price per person: £20–30 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
My recent visit to The Walnut Tree in Aldington left me with mixed feelings. I was initially disappointed to learn that the restaurant was under new management and the Sunday roast no longer offered a choice of meats. Instead, the price was based on the number of courses. However, I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the roast, which consisted of two slices of gammon and a couple of slices of roast beef for those who chose that option. The roast potatoes and carrots were cooked to perfection, but the cheesy broccoli was a bit too hard for my liking. Unfortunately, the menu lacked allergy information and did not specify that the broccoli was cheesy. The portion of sticky toffee pudding was decent, but I found it lacking in sticky sauce. The apple crumble, on the other hand, was quite small in comparison. Despite these minor disappointments, the standout feature of my visit was the lovely service provided by the wait staff. In conclusion, The Walnut Tree in Aldington offers a nice roast and pleasant service, but there are some improvements that could be made to the menu and portion sizes. Overall, I would still recommend it for a Sunday roast or a casual dining experience.
Lovely for a glass of wine in front of a proper fire. Good atmosphere, very welcoming. Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
Lovely pub with a fantastic atmosphere, dog friendly as well in parts which is very good. Came for a family lunch and the food was excellent and the staff could not do more to help. They were brilliant. Would certainly recommend this to any one passing you won't be disappointed.
Fish Chip Tuesday. Eat in or takeaway, food was excellent. Had a lovely takeaway, food all freshly cooked, it was delicious, generous portions and great value for money
