Came to know about this place from a Magazine supplement. The venue is quite impressive and well restored. From arrival to departure we were treated very well. The lunch menu though not extensive is still nicely varied. The Beer Battered Cod is a very good choice. While we were there for lunch Afternoon Tea was being served in the Drawing Room which looked very good also. There is also a lovely outside terrace area with beautiful views of the countryside. I would definitely return, perhaps for dinner next time with an overnight stay.
Simply superb, Michelin standard fayre, all beautifully presented. The current, seasonal lunch and dinner menu's have some lovely choices including the salmon with samphire and crushed jersey royals and the belted galloway fillet steak which is totally delicious and better than any steak I have eaten anywhere else. Other lovely choices include, the tian of smoked salmon and prawns and a wonderful choice of freshly made soups including roast parsnip and pea with wild garlic which were all extremely good. If you are staying at the hotel, the breakfasts are very generous and equally delicious. All served in the comfortable Dining Room within Walwick Hall with excellent customer service. Very strongly recommend.
The food at Walwick Hall is absolutely wonderful ! The new Christmas menu is full of crowd pleasers including locally sourced belted galloway beef cooked three ways which is delicious. There is, of course, turkey with goose fat roast potatoes, home made cranberry sauce and all the trimmings. It is absolutely excellent and definitely recommended. There are daily specials, I tried the hay baked celeriac, white bean and truffle soup. Silky smooth and rich with a depth of flavour, it was stunning and had to be ordered a number of times. It was made by Dan, the trainee chef, which gives you an idea of the high calibre of the chefs in the kitchen which frankly, in my view is second to none. There are as always some stunning desserts including the pear and almond tart which comprises of a soft pear enrobed in a jammy bakewell tart filling with superbly crisp pastry. A total triumph and made even more enticing by being accompanied by a fabulous Christmas pudding ice cream. One of the best desserts I have ever eaten. The restaurant chefs go to considerable trouble making everything from scratch including all the bread, biscuits etc. The customer service is faultless and exemplary. All the team are friendly, very helpful and totally committed. Even when busy, everyone is good natured and the very high standards are fully maintained. It is impressive to witness. That reliability coupled with really fabulous food and outstanding customer service makes for a very happy dining experience particularly at a busy time of year because you know everything will be spot on. The Hall also looks stunning with all the Christmas decorations up. A festive visit or two is highly recommended !
Would recommend dinner. great menu and food was first class. Knowledgeable waitresses and a great drinks menu too.
