Christmas questions

When is your festive menu available?

Our festive menu is available from 1st December to 30th December 2026, excluding Christmas Day (25th December). It’s perfect for Christmas parties, family celebrations, work gatherings and festive get-togethers.

Are you open on Christmas Day?

Yes. Our Didsbury restaurant will be open on Christmas Day with a special Christmas Day Menu, available exclusively on 25th December 2026.

How do I make a Christmas booking?

Christmas bookings can be made through our usual online booking system. For larger parties or special requests, please contact the restaurant directly and our team will be happy to help.

Can I book for a large Christmas party?

Yes. We welcome group bookings and Christmas parties throughout December. For larger groups, we recommend contacting the restaurant with your preferred date, time and party size so our team can discuss the best options with you.

Do I need to pay a deposit?

A deposit may be required for Christmas and larger group bookings. Our team will confirm any deposit requirements and payment details when your booking is arranged.

How far in advance should I book?

We recommend booking as early as possible. December is one of our busiest times of the year, particularly Fridays, Saturdays and the weeks leading up to Christmas, and popular dates can fill quickly.

Can you cater for dietary requirements and allergies?

Yes. Please let us know about any allergies or dietary requirements when making your booking so our team can advise you on the suitable options available.

Do we need to choose our food in advance?

For some larger Christmas bookings, we may ask for menu choices ahead of your visit. If a pre-order is required, our team will let you know when confirming your reservation.

Are children welcome for Christmas bookings?

Of course. Families are very welcome throughout the festive season. Children under 12 are charged at half the adult price for both our Festive Menu and our Christmas Day Menu. Please include all children in your total party size when making your reservation.

Is the Christmas Day menu different from the festive menu?

Yes. Our Christmas Day menu is a special menu created exclusively for 25th December at our Didsbury restaurant and is separate from our festive menu available from 1st to 30th December.
