Christmas is only 10 weeks away and I don&#8217;t doubt that many of you have been saddled with the burden of choosing a venue for this years office Christmas party. It can be a real pain trying to balance everyones differing tastes and priorities but fear not, we&#8217;ve had some local restaurants get in touch with their Christmas restaurant menus. Here you go!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.starinnthecity.co.uk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Star Inn the City<\/a><\/strong> are taking Christmas bookings now and have two Christmas menus offering everything from a traditional Christmas roast to something with a little more sparkle. We particularly like the &#8216;Ceps in the city&#8217; and the celebration of Yorkshire beef sounds delicious while a horseradish and corned beef croquette would be tempting with short rib. The menus run from the 1<sup>st<\/sup> to the 24<sup>th<\/sup>December, call 01904 619208 or email <a href=\"mailto:bookings@starinnthecity.co.uk\">bookings@starinnthecity.co.uk<\/a> to book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over at the <a href=\"http:\/\/pavementvaults.co.uk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pavement Vaults<\/a> the theme is, as always, smoked and\/or slow cooked meats. Twenty five pounds a head gets you three courses with truffled macaroni cheese and half smoked duck sounding like the highlights to me, I&#8217;ll take a white chocolate creme br\u00fbl\u00e9e too if you&#8217;re offering. To book drop them a line at info@pavementvaults.co.uk or buzz on 0190467077<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On High Petergate the Eagle and Child have their Christmas menu available to view here <a href=\"http:\/\/www.eagleandchildyork.co.uk\/christmas.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/www.eagleandchildyork.co.uk\/christmas.pdf<\/a>. They have a variety of snugs and spaces to occupy and let&#8217;s not forget the original Rolling Stones signatures!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you fancy something a little less traditional you can always hit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ambiente-tapas.co.uk\/christmas\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ambiente<\/a> on either Fossgate or Goodramgate. For groups of 8 or above you can enjoy a wide range of tapas and sharing platters including a rather special sounding whole roast sea bream rubbed with seaweed butter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since it&#8217;s expansion <a href=\"http:\/\/www.deli-barbakan.co.uk\">Barbakan<\/a> has an awful lot more space. Their Christmas menu looks like a bargain to me at under twenty pounds for two courses with polish specialty pierogi and a hearty lamb shank just a couple of the options. Check the menu out <a href=\"http:\/\/deli-barbakan.co.uk\/christmasmenu2016.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let us know how you get on and, most of all, have a wonderful Christmas!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Time to book your Christmas party?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":16904,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[48,56,220],"class_list":["post-16905","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-casual-dining","tag-christmas","tag-york","category-4","description-off"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.10 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>It&#039;s Christmas!
