Welcome, welcome!

On June 23rd we will celebrate being in downtown since 1994. It has been a privilege to be a part of Denton for the last 32 years. What our founders, Valeree Clegg and Betty Seeders, began is a legacy that has lasted longer than most restaurants can ever dream of.

It is now time to begin a new chapter.
The Chestnut Tree will be closing its doors on July 19th.

We are so endlessly grateful for our time in this building, and it’s difficult to put into words what it’s meant to us. We have celebrated countless weddings, reunions, birthdays, and anniversaries. We have loved, we have lost, and, through it all, this building has stood with us.

The building is being sold, and a new business will be moving in soon. We don’t know what’s in store for the future of 107 W Hickory St., but we have high hopes that it will continue to serve this community in myriad ways for a long time to come.

However, this is not a goodbye. Chestnut Tree Catering will continue to operate, and we look forward to serving you at your special events and milestones for years to come.

We are incredibly grateful for the years of support, friendship, and memories we’ve shared with our guests, staff, and community. Your loyalty has meant more to us than words can express.

Thank you for being part of our story. We are proud of everything we’ve built together, and we are excited for what the future holds.

With much love and gratitude,
Suzanne and the Nutty Buddies
