Jingle all the way to us for Christmas 2026
Tuck into seasonal feasts, raise a glass (or two) of something seasonal, and soak up the kind of cheer you just can’t wrap in paper. Whether you’re here for the roasties, the reunions or the excuse to wear sequins in daylight, we’ve got your Christmas booking covered.
From cosy catch-ups to full-on family get-togethers, there's plenty of festive fun on the cards – including a magical morning with the big man himself at our ever-popular Breakfast with Santa.
So, round up your favourites and make us your go-to for feel-good vibes, top-notch pub grub and zero washing up.
Why spend Christmas with us?
Well, why not? Forget juggling oven timings, arguing over who gets the crispy roasties and spending half the day in the kitchen. We'll take care of the festive feast, from generous plates of Christmas favourites to puddings worth saving room for.
All that's left for you to do is swap stories, share laughs, and make memories with the most important people to you.
Christmas dining worth waiting for
We love our food, and we like to think we do it well. From juicy roast turkey and crispy roasties to fluffy Yorkshire puddings, pigs in blankets and all the festive trimmings, our Christmas feast has all the bits everyone secretly hopes they’ll get an extra helping of. Looking for something a bit different? Sink your fork into our buttery Pulled Turkey & Smoked Ham Hock and Sage Pie, tuck into an 8oz Sirloin Steak, or bite into one of our festive melt burgers, topped with melted camembert and cranberry sauce for a proper taste of the season.
Save room for dessert (we know you said you were full, but Christmas rules don’t count) and pick something indulgent, like our decadent chocolate orange triple-chocolate brownie or our vanilla and caramel Bailey’s cheesecake.
We haven’t forgotten about the festive drinks either. Why not toast the season with a glass of prosecco, a winter cocktail or a perfectly poured pint? After all, it’s Christmas!
Cheerful pubs, festive feelings
Christmas has a funny way of filling up the diary. One minute you’re planning a quiet festive catch-up, the next you’re arranging drinks with mates, then cramming in family meet-ups. Luckily, our pubs are made for all of it.
Whether you’re escaping the shopping crowds, gathering the whole family for a festive meal, raising a glass with colleagues or squeezing in one last catch-up before the big day, there’s always a reason to pop in.
With twinkling lights, festive drinks, cosy corners and a warm welcome waiting, we’ve got everything you need for those little Christmas moments that turn into the best memories.
It's the Season to party
Christmas parties are better when there’s no meeting room, no awkward small talk by the printer and not a spreadsheet in sight.
Whether it’s a team celebration, a family get-together or a chance to reunite the whole gang, our pubs, inns and restaurants have a traditional, individual character, and our function rooms reflect just that.
Take a peek at our pub venue rooms online, and you’ll find a wide selection of distinctive function rooms available for Christmas and New Year’s Eve party hire.
And as well as the ideal destination, we take pride in offering mouth-watering festive menus at Waterside Warrington, plus the wide selection of drinks you’d expect from us to help your party go with a bang.
