The Walnut Tree is a cosy, 300-year-old L-shaped local on Tonbridge Road, warmed by a central real fire, that runs regular live music on Friday evenings plus a monthly jam night on the first Monday. Comedy nights on the third Thursday round out a busy entertainment calendar that gives Maidstone musicians a friendly, characterful room to play. The pub's quote-covered walls and snug furnishings make it a welcoming grassroots spot.
