We know it’s only November but, if you’re anything like us, your diary is already alarmingly full with festive get-togethers, Christmas parties and cocktail hours. All of which begs the question, when exactly are you going to get all your gift shopping done?

Step in Harvey Nichols, which is promising not only a gorgeous array of presents for even the trickiest customers on your list, but also celebratory in-store fine dining and hampers for both gifting and hosting at home. The chance to attend a festive gathering and walk away with your Christmas list fully ticked off? Count us in.

Here’s our guide to the finest foodie offerings at Harvey Nichols this Christmas.

Christmas Dining at Harvey Nichols

London isn’t short on great places to tuck into festive fare but, in our humble opinion, there are few more spectacular than Harvey Nichols’ Fifth Floor Café. Replete with a gorgeous winter terrace, boasting spectacular views over the Knightsbridge rooftops, it makes for a fantastic location for a decadent feast. Alternatively, for something a little more central, the OXO Tower Restaurant & Brasserie also offers incredible views over the Thames, alongside elegant interiors perfect for a special occasion. Whichever you choose, you’re in for a treat, as both will be offering a sumptuous three-course set menu this Christmas guaranteed to leave you full of seasonal cheer.

Priced at £36 per person, including a glass of prosecco, kick things off with a classic mushroom pate served with cornichons and seeded sourdough before indulging in traditional roast turkey with all the trimmings or pan-fried salmon with watercress puree and purple potatoes with a lemon caper vinaigrette.

To finish there’s a whole host of seasonal treats to choose from. Go old school with Christmas pudding and creme Anglaise, tap into your inner child with a gingerbread amaretto tart with candied chestnuts or warm up with a spiced mince pie cheesecake with clementines. Trust us when we say, every one’s a winner.

Christmas Dining at Harvey Nichols Knightsbridge is available from 14 November 2022 and at OXO Tower Restaurant & Brasserie from 28 November 2022.

Harvey Nichols Christmas Hampers

We don’t need to tell you that a Christmas hamper makes a great gift. Packed with foodie treats tailored to their lucky recipient, there’s nothing quite like the anticipation of lifting that wicker lid to see what delights are hiding inside. If you’re hosting this Christmas, we also recommend you invest in one for yourself – we promise you’ll be glad you did when the big day rolls around and you realise that, even with all your meticulous planning, you’ve forgotten the spiced nuts, mince pies or, god forbid, have run out of champagne.
