Meals to enjoy with
Family, Friends and Colleagues

Start your day right by choosing from our wide range of traditional and continental breakfast options. Whether tackling the classic ‘full English’, savouring the scrambled egg & smoked salmon, or counting the calories with muesli, yoghurt and fresh fruit, we offer a selection of freshly-brewed coffees and teas and local, freshly baked bread!

Can’t decide what you want, or fancy sharing a couple of dishes around your table, then our ‘Tapatisers’ selection is the way to go. With vegetable, meat, fish and seafood choices, (including vegan and gluten free options), everything can be accompanied by our freshly baked sourdough breads.

Whether it’s a romantic meal with your loved one, a gathering of friends and family, or a special, one-off celebration, our Main Plate selections will suit every occasion. There’s also a tempting range of sweets and savouries to finish your meal, including our own, made-on-the-premises ice creams and sorbets. We’re sure you’ll find there’s something to tempt you!

Sundays ought to be a day of rest, so relax and let us save you time and hassle when you come and enjoy one of our Great British Sunday Roasts. With smaller portions available for children, this is a treat for the whole family to enjoy, so booking is recommended.

Kids are always welcome at the Walnut Tree Inn and our children’s menu offers a selection of tried and tested favourites that we know little people will love.

All children’s dishes on the menu are made on the premises from fresh ingredients (with the exception of the baked beans!!) and are wholesome and without additives.

For young ones to drink we offer Pip Organic Juices, which are made entirely from 100% fruit juice with nothing added.

A trip to the restaurant at the Walnut Tree Inn, Northampton would not be complete without a visit to our newly redesigned and refurbished main bar.

Take a dash of retro flair, add a generous measure of sophisticated comfort and mix together to create the perfect environment to enjoy a drink, before or after your meal.

With a choice of locally brewed real ales, 6 international lagers, 30+ whiskies and a dedicated premium gin menu, you’ll be spoilt for choice.

If you are looking for a glass of something special to accompany your meal, there is a fine choice of reds, whites and rosés plus sparkling wines and champagnes in our specially selected wine list.

However, if you’re the designated driver (or teetotal) we also offer a wide range of soft drinks, fruit juices and mineral waters.

Make a day of it

There are some excellent walks around us. Why not take a walk through scenic countryside including stretches along the Grand Union Canal and the historic Blisworth Tunnel. After all your exertions, relax with lunch or an evening meal at the Walnut Tree Inn. See link below for details of suggested route.
