I eat at Chesnuts often and have never once been disappointed. The food is phenomenal and service is outstanding. I have to recommend the steak pie, it's like no other! If I could afford to eat here every night, I would! Top marks! More

If it's great food your looking for this is the place to go. It's the place where chef's go to eat, The service is first class and the managment always looking after you.Try the Smoked Haddock Risotto, you won't be dissapointed.Steaks are first class and the puddings to die for.Best of luck to Kevin and the team in the kitchen...

The Chestnuts is definitely has a homely feel, just like going to a great friend's house for dinner, drinks and a good catch up. Great quality and variety of food, wines, beers and excellent service. One of my favourite places to dine with friends and family. Wouldn't hesitate in recommending The Chestnuts Hotel to anyone... More

Friendly, genuine welcome and food that has been of a consistently high standard for the 10 years that we've been regular visitors. Comfortable, homely atmosphere, excellent value and reliably good service from an experienced team. The Chestnuts is loved by visitors and locals alike. We never get tired of coming back! More
