Best Christmas Dinners In Stockport 2026




This Godless Place

  • Why we recommend: this is an affordable choice for casual Christmas meals, and their selection of festive burgers promises serious flavour and something different from a traditional roast
  • Location: 15-17 Bridge Street, SK1 1XR
  • When: November and December
  • Price: £34.95 for three courses and a welcome drink

A charming restaurant bar that's decked out in exposed brickwork and fairy lights, This Godless Place is a charming spot for a festive meal. Whether you're planning a seasonal party or just heading out with a few mates, they've got several different packages on offer.

Their set menu welcomes you with a glass of prosecco or a Corona, before you dive into the food. We're talking deep-fried halloumi or cheesy garlic bread to start, followed by Christmas-themed burgers, birria brisket tacos and cheesecake.

Festive Supper Club

@ Cherry Jam on Friday 20th November 2026 and 3 other Fridays

  • Why we recommend: a buzzing festive afternoon out that steers away from the classics, Cherry Jam's supper clubs promise great music and all sorts of tasty eats to share - alongside unlimited drinks
  • Location: 4 Mealhouse Brow, SK1 1JP
  • When: various dates from 20th November
  • Price: from £31.90 for sharing food and bottomless drinks

Not in the mood for a roast this winter? Then check out Cherry Jam's Festive Supper Club, where you'll enjoy a scrumptious sharing spread of seasonal bites, paired with 90 minutes of bottomless drinks.

Choose between boozy or non-alcoholic drinks, and soak up the live entertainment and party tunes as you eat. If you prefer, they're also offering a festive afternoon tea during this period.

Plough On The Moor Stockport

Sunday Set Menu

  • Why we recommend: this is a charming local pub that knows how to cook up a hearty British meal, and their set Christmas menu is great value too
  • Location: 82 Heaton Moor Road, SK4 4NZ
  • When: November and December
  • Price: from £34 for three courses

Searching for a cosy pub this Christmas? Plough On The Moor delivers with leather seating, rustic wooden furniture and even a fireplace - as well as a budget-friendly festive set menu.

Start with the likes of rosemary and garlic brie wedges or whisky smoked salmon, before diving into mains such as hand-carved turkey breast with all the trimmings and a three-bird pie. Save room for dessert though, as their sticky toffee Christmas pudding is excellent.

Piccolino - Bramhall

  • Why we recommend: for a classy Italian festive feast accompanied by cocktails, you can't go wrong with Piccolino. And for something really special, they offer a more premium version of the menu too
  • Location: 207 Moss Lane, SK7 1BA

Looking for an Italian twist on Christmas dinner? Then head down to Piccolino, where you'll find delicious plates in a stylish restaurant - featuring lots of greenery, plush booth seating and an open kitchen.

They offer both a classic and signature mneu, the latter coming in at £54. Devour three sumptuous courses, from beetroot carpaccio to turkey arrosto and mushroom risotto - plus tiramisu for dessert.

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I book a Christmas dinner in Stockport?

As early as possible — popular restaurants and pubs in Stockport typically open Christmas bookings from September or October, and the best tables for Christmas Day and peak December weekends fill up fast. Most venues require a deposit per person at the time of booking, so it's worth securing your spot well ahead of the festive rush.

What's the difference between a festive menu and a Christmas Day menu in Stockport?

A festive menu is a set menu available throughout December — usually from late November — and is ideal for work dos, group meals, and pre-Christmas catch-ups. A Christmas Day menu is specifically for 25th December, tends to be more premium, and almost always requires advance booking with a deposit.

Are there vegetarian or vegan Christmas dinner options in Stockport?

Yes — vegetarian and vegan options are increasingly standard on festive menus across Stockport. All the venues in this guide offer at least one meat-free option on their seasonal menus.
