The Old Bicycle Shop

Wondering which restaurants are serving Christmas Day dinner in Cambridge? The Old Bicycle Shop is cooking up a festive feast for £70. That means starters such as beetroot salad with goat's curd, truffle and radicchio salad, mains of turkey, gammon and duck, accompanied by all the trimmings (and more alternative for those who stray away from classic roasts), not to mention desserts like Christmas pudding with brandy butter ice cream.

Or if you're looking for a pre-Christmas set menu for your get-together? Enjoy three courses for £37.50.

The Carpenters Arms

Enjoy a wholesome and hearty Christmas dinner at The Carpenters Arms on Victoria Road. This warm and friendly pub has a welcoming atmosphere, so it makes the perfect setting to wolf down pizzas with festive toppings like the Larson (brie, bacon and cranberry) or the Shroom (garlic mushrooms, spinach, Italian cheese).

The Station Tavern

Decked out with twinkling string lights and pinecones, The Station Tavern is fronting a festive menu fab for a family Christmas lunch in Cambridge. While munching on your crown of English turkey, you can sip on mulled wine, prosecco or an apple gin cocktail.

If you fancy having your Christmas dinner in Cambridge, why not tuck into a tempting festive spread at Tivoli. The menu includes crowd-pleasing nibbles, like pigs in duvets with dunkin' gravy and spiced cauli pakoras, with sliders and falafel available for sharing too. On top of that, you can find delicious pizzas, topped with venison, kale and horseradish, as well as your classic pepperoni.

Cosy country pubs and roaring open fires - there's nothing quite like it for your yuletide celebrations. The Crown & Punchbowl's Christmas menu has rustic intimacy by the bucket load and serves up British classics alongside vegan grub, making it some of the best Christmas lunch in Cambridge.
