When it comes to planning the perfect Christmas party, getting the venue spot on is pretty up there with the top priorities. We think you can’t get more relaxed than a laidback chicken restaurant, which sets the tone for an afternoon or evening of merrymaking without any stuffy airs or graces. Hosting your Christmas party somewhere a little more casual, in our opinion, is a savvy move to ensure everyone feels completely at ease and ready to let their hair down.
The colourful dining room at Backyard Chicken Co in Bristol will immediately buoy guests to create a fun vibe, and with tailor-made packages you can treat friends, family, or colleagues to a Christmas party to remember this year. The helpful in-house team are well-used to making people feel comfortable and will work with you to create the perfect table setup in the main restaurant or to arrange external catering should you wish to use an alternative venue but still take advantage of the crowd-pleasing menu.
Food-wise you can expect a delicious array of grilled and fried chicken options, as well as some plant-based dishes which ensure most dietary requirements are covered. You’ll be able to create your own bespoke package, but you could kick things off with platters of chicken wings or buttermilk garlic buns stuffed with homemade fried chicken, tarragon butter and crispy onions. Mains can be various things (including vegan fried chicken) but a standout selection is the signature whole fried chicken which makes a stunning centrepiece and a great talking point. It comes covered in a kung pao style sauce and is served with toasted peanuts, crispy rice noodles, coriander, sesame, ginger, chilli and a watermelon and lime chow chow salad.
As well as a generous selection of beers, wines and fizz, there’s also a tempting run of cocktails that are perfect for kicking of party season with a bang.
