Miss you already….
See you on the other side!
The Government is advising us to do the right thing to beat Coronavirus. We are 100% behind doing whatever it takes to support our NHS and protect lives. We are still excited about the prospect of continuing to serve our communities, adding take-aways and village shops to our businesses – but for now, we think it is best to listen, cease all activities and give our teams the best chance of re-opening when the world returns to normal.
With a heavy heart we will be closing the side-doors on Chestnut’s pubs and restaurants from the evening of 23/03/20.
This is not goodbye from us… it is see you again soon, where we look forward to celebrating with you at the mother of all opening parties!!
WELCOME
Welcome to our 16th Century timber framed pub where our olde-worlde exterior gives way to a fabulously fun and modern interior - setting the scene for you to enjoy our food, sample our range of beers, explore our wine list and delve into our gin collection.
We are on the border where Essex meets Cambridgeshire in the beautiful market town of Saffron Walden. We celebrate all that is great about our fantastic region – its people, provenance and personality.
