Hi, I've been asked to find out where one can find out which restaurants do Christmas lunch, is there a website that would list such a thing as I haven't had any luck searching on here.

Have a google of "Christmas Lunch Dublin" - a fair few came up, but there doesn't seem to be a site specifically showing all of them.

Is it for lunch on Christmas day? If you will consider hotels, the Conrad hotel definatly does. They have two sittings and afaik its about €150pp. The Shelbourne used to pre-renovation but I'm not sure about now.

Thanks for the replies and I've found somewhere but as I want to compare costs (very pricey for young kids) does anyone know as an alternative where one can get it catered, order the food in advance to be collected on Christmas Eve, we did it before but the place doing it no longer does. They had sliced turkey & ham with stuffing all in a dish and all you had to do was reheat it and it worked very well. That's what I'm thinking of - Galway, Limerick or Cork is suitable as a pick up place - not Dublin.

M & S do those Christmas Hampers and it's all stuff you just bung in the oven for about half an hour. They bring out a catalogue closer to the time and you can pick up a few days before Christmas up until Christmas Eve.

You mean you want somewhere that will provide a takeaway Xmas lunch? From your original post I (and presumably others) assumed that you wanted to eat out!?

Yes Clubman I initially asked about eating out in a restaurant for xmas lunch but I'm looking at all options as I was a slave last xmas day and I don't feel like it this year. Paying 60 or 70 Euro's for children who are under 5 seems a lot to me. It all adds up and I figure the cost I've come to of nearly 700 for 9 people has made me change my mind and that's without any wine.

Definately recomended. They do a whole range in the catalogue and probably better quality food than you'll get in most places on xmas day.

for 9 people

How many adults in the 9? Ask each adult to bring something, so 1 on starter, 1 is on mashed potatoes, 1 on veg, 1 on dessert - you can do the turkey and ham and heat up the other stuff that gets brought?
Or if theres not that many helpful adults you could make some stuff in advance and freeze it (like potato, gravy, veg, soup starter perhaps?).

Again on the going out options - would all the other people not chip in on the cost?

Does anyone have links on the M&S hamper idea?
