Noone came back to take our dessert order so we went without, we sat with empty drinks glasses and then had to stop a waiter to order coffee which was watery and weak. The meal was good value for money but only because we ate on the ‘Eat Out Scheme’ not deliberate on our part as were out for our wedding anniversary and would have paid full price. We have eaten at the Walnut Tree many times before but it lacked the warm, cosy intimacy of previous years maybe due to social distancing The restaurant seemed quite bare and sadly lacking in decor, character and atmosphere
