Christmas Planning Is Officially Underway!

Can you believe we're almost into July already? It feels like the year has flown by, but if you know us, you'll know there's one thing we're always excited to start planning... Christmas!

The Smith & McKenzie team is already knee-deep in preparations to make this festive season our best yet. Before long, the restaurant will once again be transformed into the magical Christmas wonderland that so many of our guests look forward to each year.

Behind the scenes, our chefs are busy creating a delicious new three-course Christmas set menu, while we're also giving our large group booking menus and functions menu a festive makeover with some exciting Christmas-inspired dishes and seasonal flavours. Whether you're planning an end-of-year work function, a family gathering, or a celebration with friends, we're working hard to create an experience that everyone will remember.

Christmas is one of our favourite times of the year because it's all about coming together. It's a chance to celebrate friendships, families, colleagues, and all the achievements that have filled the year. There's nothing better than sharing great food, plenty of laughs, and making memories around the table.

If you've celebrated Christmas with us before, you'll know we love going all out—and this year will be no exception!

While we're busy planning all the festive fun, now is the perfect time to start thinking about your Christmas celebration. Dates fill quickly every year, especially for larger groups, so we'd encourage you to secure your booking early.

We can't wait to celebrate the festive season with you and make Christmas 2026 one to remember!
