Few Christmas party venues in the City of London strike that perfect balance between corporate polish, genuine atmosphere and quality crowd-pleasing fare. Goodman City delivers on all three. Set just a few short minutes from Bank Station, Goodman City is perhaps one of the best known steak house restaurants in the SquareMile, championing a range of quality cuts sourced largely from within the British Isles, aged in-house and grilled over charcoal.
While it’s best known as a go-to for business lunches, Goodman City knows how to throw a festive party. Dressed in signature Goodman fashion (think dark woods, rich deep-buttoned booth seating, and black and white artwork), the main dining room accommodates up to 30 guests for festive dining. Alternatively, if you’re looking to celebrate a small team Christmas party, the private dining room seats up to ten guests at a central butcher’s style table, complete with a unique view into the restaurant’s dry ageing store.
Steak is ideal for Christmas dining, but Goodman takes this a step further with three distinct group menus, each at varying price points with distinct offerings and add-ons. That said, with every menu, Christmas party groups are guaranteed a prime selection of ‘Chef’s choice’ cuts, sourced from grass-fed heritage breed steaks. All dishes are served to share, including a range of sides like mac and cheese and truffle chips.
Depending on which menu you go for, starters may include dishes like baby gem Caesar salad with pecorino, croutons, and large clearwater prawns; Spanish bluefin tuna with oyster dressing, jalapeno, and avocado; or Puglian burrata with tomatoes, fig balsamic, hazelnut and basil cress.
If one thing is certain, a great Christmas party needs plenty of merriment, and thanks to a comprehensive selection of cocktails, premium wines, Champagne and beer, Goodman City has that covered too.
