Christmas celebrations on the river
Book your Christmas party at our charming riverside pub, where festive magic meets unbeatable views of the water. Tucked beside a cheerfully crackling coal fire, it’s the ultimate celebration-ready setting for everything from office parties to family gatherings.
Picture a crisp December evening: mulled wine and hot toddies warming your hands and the easy hum of pub chatter (plus a few questionable co-worker jokes). It’s the kind of pub that turns a simple get-together into a “shall we do this every year?” tradition.
Indulge in our Christmas lunch and dinner menus, packed with hearty, flavour-first, festive favourites. Whether you’re planning a relaxed festive feast or an evening celebration with a magnum, our Christmas menu is designed for proper belt-loosening, napkin-tucking enjoyment.
Secure your Christmas party booking now and give your guests something to look forward to all season long.

Bubbles Receptions
Ready to kick off the party with a pop-and-fizz, sparkle-and-shine bang? Nobody gets the vibe going quite like bubbles. Whether you’re team Prosecco, full-on Champagne fan, or just here for the cheeky sparkling surprise, we’ve got your glitzy glass waiting, primed and chilled, for that show-stopping, party-starting entrance of yours. (Cue confetti cannon… or at least a cheeky toast!)
New Year's Eve
Out with the old and in with the oven-fresh, gravy-drenched new. Whatever your resolution this New Year, start as you mean to carry on (elbows-deep in a sharing platter, pint in hand). We’ve lined up some lip-smacking, feast-filled events to see 2027 in with a bang (and possibly a sticky-toffee pudding or two).
Mulled Wine Receptions
The scent of spice-laced, simmering mulled wine on arrival can only mean one thing, Santa’s sleigh-bells-and-lip-smacking-mince-pies entrance is imminent (brace yourselves). Skip the faffy, pint-pointing bar debates and get everyone merrily mulling from the get-go (hands warm, spirits warmer).
The Dining Room
Perfect for intimate festive get togethers with friends, cosy dinner parties over our three course feast with loved ones and celebrations with sparkling magnums with your nearest and dearest. With panoramic views of the Thames, our Dining Room is the place to be this Christmas.

Give the gift of the pub
Whether it’s a midweek tequila hit to ditch the workday blahs (because who doesn’t need a cheeky ‘just-because’ escape?), a Sunday roast paired with a hair-of-the-dog Bloody Mary to banish those cloudy-head blues, or just a couple of pints with your fave crew at the ultimate riverside local (yep, The Cross, where else?), treat someone special this festive season with the gift of proper pub magic.
