Christmas

Escape the winter chill and join us as we get cozy and celebrate the most wonderful time of the year.

We believe Christmas calls for great company, delicious food, and even better wine.

We've put together a full calendar of festive happenings throughout December, ensuring there's something special for everyone.

Take a look below at how you can celebrate with us this season.

Our Christmas opening hours are below.

Have the place to yourselves this New Year’s Eve.

Got big plans for NYE? We’re opening up both Chalkwell and Rayleigh for exclusive private hire on New Year’s Eve (booking now for 2026 and 2027).

That means your own private bar, wine flowing all night, your favourite people, choice of tunes, and a midnight toast done properly.

Dates like NYE don't hang around, so drop us an email at to talk numbers, food, and locking in the keys to the bar.
