Looking to host a Christmas party in London with impressive views and a lively atmosphere? 1864 Rooftop Bar and Kitchen on Oxford Street offers a flexible festive setting above the city, combining skyline views with cosy winter styling and adaptable event spaces.
The rooftop can accommodate up to 200 guests standing for exclusive hire, making it well suited to office-wide celebrations and large corporate gatherings. Smaller groups can opt for semi-private hire for between 20 and 60 guests, reserve the private cabin dining room for up to ten, or book one of the cosy winter igloos. These enclosed domes feature soft lighting and blankets, creating intimate settings for festive dinners with up to ten guests.
A dedicated Christmas feasting menu is available for seated events. Snacks for the table include Padron peppers and olives, followed by dishes such as parsnip soup with maple and lemon glaze, samphire and kale fritters and crispy fried chicken. Mains range from slow-cooked Jacob’s Ladder with horseradish mash, parsnip crisps and red wine jus to pan-fried sea bream with marinated artichoke. Desserts include dark chocolate creme brulee with mandarin gel and sticky toffee pudding with clotted cream.
For more informal celebrations, grazing and drinks packages are available, featuring small plates such as hot smoked trout and chorizo croquettes alongside Prosecco, cocktails and refillable winter warmers. Wine, beer and cocktail packages can be tailored to suit different budgets and event styles.
Throughout the festive season, the rooftop is illuminated with festoon and twinkling lights, while greenhouse-style booths and heated areas ensure comfort during colder months. The venue is also equipped to host DJs and dancing, allowing you to turn your Christmas party into a lively late-night celebration with music and space for guests to dance the night away.
