We celebrated our wedding in August and could not praise and thank Chrissie & her team enough for everything they did. The preparation & organisation right from the start was second to none. The food was exceptional the service throughout the day was superb.Chrissie went out of her way to accommodate our guests which we were so grateful for. The wedding package was good value for money & we didn’t have to worry about any detail it was all taken care of with care and attention. Our guests were really impressed with the food and accommodation too. Thank you Chrissie you are a real credit to the business and the day was all we could have wanted for our special day. We would certainly recommend your venue for a smaller wedding party. Guests are still talking about it months later. Grateful thanks. Sue and Lee xx

This is a CASHLESS venue so avoid, avoid, avoid! If you support CASH use. At least three parties trying to pay cash within a few hours and all REFUSED. Will never visit again until Cash is accepted in payment. Food is mediocre: pre-salted chips, limited desert menu. Fizzy drinks were served from a plastic bottle at premium prices! Not all are draught. Atmosphere: noisy trains every few mins as literally right next to a mainline railway. Bland. A bit disorganised and chaotic service.

Keep up the good work! Great all round but yes some picky things: 1 tables outside need fixing 2 some chairs also dodgy 3 the bed could be upgraded to a king 🙏 4 the ploughman’s platter could include some meat and some more imagination to meet the price of 16£ 5 the full English could include two rashers of bacon, although good hell what’s another 40 pence to thd cost..? 6 a more selection of Jams would be nice Other wise good all round 👍The trains from a back room didn’t bother us - not sure about a front facing room …? The staff were very accommodating and coffee in the morning was a non stop pour for us - 🙏

Travelling past on the canal and saw the sign on the bridge so went for Sunday lunch. Stefan and his staff were all, without exception, very friendly and welcoming. We had our dog with us so sat outside in the shade. I can honestly say it was one of the nicest homemade Sunday lunches we have ever had in a pub. Everything was fresh tasting and hot, the beef was pink (as requested) and very tender. We were advised that all the meat was locally sourced and it tasted delicious. Really good portion side, so sadly couldn't fit in a desert. Will definitely be back as main menu looked enticing!

Well to start it's next to a main train line and they run every 10 to 15 mins and are loud. This means on a warm evening you really can't open your bedroom windows if you want to sleep. However if your in room 11 you have the emergency light with a green indicator this illuminates your room to day time hours, if that's not enough they really do need a new mattress, so don't expect to get much sleep. Food evening meal good pub grub nice pizza but too much salt for me. Breakfast was average. If anyone was around I would have given this feedback in person but the lady serving breakfast didn't even say good morning, or check everything was OK. As you guess won't be visiting again

We had Sunday lunch at The Walnut Tree as it was a halfway meeting point for our family. It's a lovely place - nice decor and a good ambiance. The food was excellent - the roasts were fabulous - good portions and lots of fresh vegetables - very tasty. The desserts were also great - a bit different and really nicely presented. Finally, all of the staff were great especially Stefan who was very friendly and helpful. We shall definitely come back again.

Stopped here for a night when travelling up North, close to M1. Rooms are basic but good value. Bar and Dinner were both very good, food choice and quality were excellent. Rooms are small but beds comfortable, toiletries basic so bring your own, no air con but fan in room. Fast freight trains running regularly at night so difficult to sleep with window open. Very tasty breakfast. All in all would return for food and stay.

We went to the Walnut Tree as a family of 4 adults and 2 children. We were welcomed by all staff and shown to our table. Everywhere was clean and tidy. The waiter was professional and couldn’t do enough for us, especially as we have two children who are a bit fussy with their food. The children’s menu was very good value for money and good size portions. Three of the adults decided to have the roast beef, which was delicious, one had the mushroom Wellington, which was well presented and filling. Definitely recommend the venue 😀

We popped in here on the off chance. It looks very nice from the outside and lovely inside. We were greeted and asked to choose a table. The barman/waiter was very friendly and said he’d be with us in a second. He was and took our drinks order. Delivered the drinks and we ordered. I had smoked salmon and my husband had the spicy meatballs. Both were delicious. We then shared a Neapolitan pizza with a side salad each. Very generous toppings and the salad and dressing were lovely. Great food, great service and reasonable price. We will definitely be returning.

A great find, we used it as an overnight stopover when visiting family - and convenient for visiting the lovely canal museum at Stoke Bruerne about 4 miles away. Very comfortable room, welcoming and helpful staff everyone we dealt with was a credit to the business. Excellent food for our evening meal and breakfast. It's an older building with the expected slightly quirky layout, which we loved! The railway passes close by, so if that might bother you on a hot night where you want the windows open, then ask for a room at the back - the trains aren't particularly loud but they are quite frequent! Not the cheapest, but not silly prices either - for the quality offered, it's good value for money. The car park at the rear was a bit puddly but there are parking places at the front off the road. We will be back!

A group of 6 had reserved a table for a pre Christmas get together . When we were seated and as menus were handed to us, we were told that due to no gas in the village there was a limited menu. This was very disappointing as we felt that we should have been notified ahead , having had a reservation, to explain the problem. It was cold where we were sat , a temporary oil filled radiator didn’t really do much, and we were placed in a thoroughfare to the toilets , and with a function in another room , there was a frequent flow of people. There was no music where we sat, it was very un -Christmassy , so we listened to music off a mobile phone. Toasted Brie and cranberry sandwiches were missing the cranberry sauce , so when we pointed this out, the cranberry sauce was bought out separately , so not toasted in the sandwich at all. Someone asked for sweeteners for a coffee , there wasn’t any. So a dismal experience. As a group we have been here many times in the past , but we won’t eat here again.

Came for a family meal here on a Saturday lunchtime. Lovely cosy atmosphere with log fire going. Manager was extremely helpful especially as we had a 90 year old with us and her hearing is not good. Good selection of dishes on the Christmas menu, and the manager was at pains to point out that a lot of the food was locally sourced. All 5 of us enjoyed our meals, for 3 of us it was the Xmas Turkey which was very good and a generous portion size. Good choice of drinks and reasonably priced. What would have made it 5*? Well, the gravy was too salty, and the latte coffee was well presented but only lukewarm warm! I’d certainly go here again.

So , had the funeral reception here and very clean and stylish interior . They didn't charge too much for 20 covers ( around £15 each for tea , coffee and plentiful buffet). The food was very nice and service very good and no fussing around us. Location is a touch rural so make sire your guest have directions. The room was a tad cool but heating costs are tough for everyone so heating down a bit keeps prices down a bit. For how nice the place is you could do a lot worse in Northampton for the same prices. They also have ten bedrooms to rent and a bigger room for weddings , plus the classy main bar. Its more a wedding and events bar these days but ideal if you are looking for a reception area after you have the service at the Milton Malsor crematorium etc..., a mile or so away.

Lovely food and serving staff; shame about the bar manager who was upset with us for turning up when he had an event. We had booked a table online shortly beforehand and were told in a very rude manner that booking was closed so we could not have made a booking (despite email evidence to the contrary). He laboured the point and seemed very annoyed with us. We were about to leave when he suggested the server check with the chef. The chef was happy to cook for us and the server was kind and attentive. We won't be back though as we do expect some sort of welcome at a restaurant, rather than being made to feel as if we are the ones being rude and generally an inconvenience!

We stayed here on Thursday 2nd November. At first glance the place looked a bit old and in need of a bit of work but whatever you do don't let this put you off. The room and especially the bed were super comfortable, there was a bit of noise from the railway lines a short distance away but this soon just faded into the background. The staff were very polite and friendly, especially the lovely girl working in the bar and restaurant and the restaurant is the highlight of this place, the food is fantastic. It was presented beautifully and tasted amazing and we were lucky to have booked the room with our 3 course dinners and breakfast included. We would both highly recommend this place for a stay and even more so for a meal

The establishment is well looked after and inviting and following social distancing and PPE very well. Staff were very friendly and helpful. We had alcoholic drinks (good red and white wine and lagers to choose from) to accompany our Sunday Roasts (beef) followed by desserts and coffees. All were very well presented (wished I took photos of) and delicious too. Service was very good, quick and friendly. We will definitely return and recommend here to others as a place for a great meal.

We were staying at Stoke Bruerne and discovered to our cost that cuisine is somewhat variable. Quick check with Tripadvisor and we ended up at the Walnut Tree Inn. Warm welcome, great service and menu. Food was tasty and plentiful all at a great price. Well done all round.

I had a pre-planned overnight stop at the Walnut Tree Inn as a break while cycling the Grand Union Canal. Despite being a muddy and wet mess the owner came out to greet me as I was locking my bike up. He clearly explained the measures in place due to the coronavirus and found me a menu so I could order before the kitchen closed.I had a simple and very well priced room booked which did the job with a great shower. The approach the staff are taking around social distancing worked very well without being intrusive but still enabling them to be attentive and friendly.While I could have eaten a horse after all the cycling the food caught me by surprise. It was astonishingly good and if you're local to the pub would be worth going there for that alone. A couple of fellow diners in the restaurant said theirs was just as impressive so not just a lucky one off.I slept like a log and had an equally impressive veggie breakfast the following morning.A lovely place to stay and if I ever revisit this trip I wouldn't even bother looking at alternatives. Well recommended...

The restaurant here is absolutely first class. The bar is well stocked and the bar food is way above the usual sort of pub grub that one is likely to find. There's also regular live acts and events. I would 100% recommend this place 10/10

Lovely meal with friends. Our friends hadn’t been before and we haven’t been for a couple of years. Food was just as good as we remembered. Lovely restaurant area and well stocked bar. Service was good.

Another visit to the Walnut Tree. We visited last year as well. Food and service were excellent, and even though the menu is somehat limited, it was a very enjoyable dinner.

We took Mum for lunch, Mum is in her 90's, get very confused and is frail and loves going to The Walnut Tree. The food from the festive menu was delicious and beautifully presented, highlights were the prawn cocktail, goats cheese nougat and blade of beef. The customer service was amazing, as it always is, with real consideration and patience shown for Mum, thank you.

We were given a voucher to dine here as a gift, the experience FAR from what we'd expected given the voucher price. The Walnut Tree does not serve bland "pub grub", you will be surprised and delighted by every delicious course. We expected to pay in quite significantly for our three-course dinner with coffee; all we paid for was our wine. The terrine, pork belly and white chocolate panna cotta with burnt chocolate cream were a triumph! Will definitely be back, the chef should be applauded! Excellent value, delicious food and fantastic service!Can't rate the hotel, did not stay over...

Just had the most delicious Sunday lunch here- the roast lamb was amazing. Squeezed in a pudding and went for the special - apple and blackberry crumble. Not as expected, more a deconstructed crumble and not a crunchy topping but still very yummy 😋
