What could possibly be jollier than drinking a delicious small batch ale brewed on site at Endeavour Tap Rooms? Pairing it with a delicious mince pie for free of course!
Creamy, boozy goodness at Tea Cosy and Chrissie scones with brandy cream. Did we mention 10 jams to choose from?
A Christmas pudding flavoured Negroni and a tropical Mango Eton mess? Sounds like a match made for Christmas!
Enjoy merry espresso martini at Black and White Espresso this Christmas.
Is there anything more comforting and delicious than a proper Christmas roast? Enjoy a pork roast every Sunday, and classic Turkey on Christmas Eve.
Lamingtons especially for Santa, in delicious lychee and pandan flavours.
It’s not Christmas if there’s no turkey! Enjoy a delicious roast and finish it off with a sweet plum pudding.
It may be called The Grinch, but this creamy, minty-green cocktail is guaranteed to make you feel extra merry!
Nothing says celebration quite like a glass of Champagne... except maybe a glass of Champagne with a winning Christmas bauble.
Baileys, tiramisu and gingerbread crumb... simply delicious!
