About Pickled Walnut

Opened in February 2020, this new West Kirby restaurant is the first high street location for caterers Pickled Walnut, who look after the food and drink offering at Caldy and Aldersey Green golf clubs, Combermere Abbey wedding venue, as well as offering other private catering services. The restaurant has been given a fresh look, with a large mural of the local marine lake looking over to North Wales, painted by local artist Jim Fleming. With a mixture of booths, comfortable seating for both tables and high chairs by the bar, Pickled Walnut offers a warm welcome for diners to enjoy the modern British menu with Mediterranean influences. Dishes are not overcomplicated with the kitchen letting the ingredients speak for themselves. The Tomahawk steak, designed to be shared by two, is already a firm favourite. There is also a comfortably sized bar which stocks Estrella, Inedit and 61 Deep as well as a full wine list, an extensive choice of spirits and a small cocktail menu. Pickled Walnut is open from 10am Wednesday to Friday for coffee and cake and then serves lunch and then dinner with the bar open until 11pm (midnight at weekends). They also serve breakfast from 8.30am on Saturday and Sunday.

Had lunch on 22nd Oct. Reduced menu due to Covid but the food was absolutely lovely. My wife and I both had a soup and sandwich combo. Parsnip soup with ham hock and chicken sandwich were amazing. Spiced sweet potato and coronation chicken sandwich equally superb. Maple pecan slice and choc tiffin all washed down with a lovely latte. Would definitely recommend and will be going back.

Great atmosphere and helpful staff, our waitress was very friendly and attentive. The Sunday lunch was lovely, great home cooked feel. The veggie option was delicious too and the desserts yum. Thanks, can't wait to come back.

Went here on 29th October, intending to have the tomahawk steak, but unfortunately they had none left. However we weren't disappointed. I had the belly pork and my partner the sea bass for mains, and we both had the king prawn starter. All delicious. We just had enoufh room left for 5he sticky toffee pudding, and lefy contentedly full. Service was excellent, my only criticism was that there were no condiments on the table, a minor thing.

Went here for Sunday dinner with family. The roasts are wonderful, large portions too. We had two courses -great value and bread and butter pudding/sticky toffee pudding went down well with kids/nan! Nice atmosphere, great service.

Had a lovely meal with my wife for our "meeting" anniversary, 37 years after we met. Fantastic food, great service and friendly staff. Was allowed to change table as the one given was too dark for me (I have a visual impairment) - the one by the window that we were moved to was much better. My only criticism was the lack of a wine menu, and the cost of the wine; we chose a fairly expensive NZ white without realising , and I think the prices charged for wine are slightly excessive. Lovely night though, and felt safe in the current Covid climate. Will be back.

This was my second visit but my first for the evening sitting. Lucy was our waitress and she was absolutely wonderful (as all the staff are) Completely professional, very polite, personable without being overbearing and catering for our every need. We had a starter each of panko prawns and duck spring roll (which we shared) which were so light to eat and beautifully presented. Just as well that the starter was so light, because we'd decided to order the Tomahawk Steak with all the trimmings as our main. Then a beast of a steak (which turned heads as it was brought out) was presented to us and what a treat it was!! Cooked to medium rare perfection, we couldn't have ordered anything better - what a delight and definitely a cut of steak to tackle at least once in your life!!! Then after a well deserved rest, I really couldn't resist a latte and the chocolate and raspberry tart with fruit compote (so rich and delicious - the compote was just perfect) Just like the starter, dessert was also as light as a feather - I'm still truly amazed at how the chef accomplished this!!! As we were both driving, another bonus to the evening was being able to order my most recent favourite drink - Erdinger Alcohol-free Isotonic beer (only available in a selection of bars) which tastes great and is just like having an alcoholic drink . A perfect indulgent experience, which I'm looking forward to trying again very soon. Thank you Pickled Walnut - faultless!!! x ;-D

Have been twice to eat out recently, during the Help out to Eat Out Scheme. Very busy on both occasions and meals served relatively quickly. Food was excellent, staff attentive and courteous and friendly. Would definitely go again, best meal out we’ve had for sometime.
