Pan Pacific is one of London’s premiere luxury hotels, with an enviable location in the heart of The City, just a stone’s throw from Liverpool Street and Shoreditch High Street stations. No wonder, then, that it’s so popular around Christmas time, when City workers and East London locals are looking for somewhere glitzy and glamorous to host a Christmas party to remember. Pan Pacific takes on a new festive theme each year, with this year’s theme paying homage to the Nutcracker Ballet.
Between the hotel's private events spaces, as well as restaurants and bars like Straits Kitchen, Silverleaf, and Ginger Lily, Pan Pacific has a huge range of locations to host large and small Christmas parties of all types. Straits Kitchen also boasts a pair of private dining rooms - Newton and Katong - which can accommodate 12 and 14 guests respectively for a sit down Christmas meal.
Straits Kitchen also runs a number of festive lunch and dinner menus, available for large and small parties, as well as a festive roast buffet lunch. Dishes on the former include the likes of curry laksa, stuffed roasted cauliflower with king oyster mushroom, teriyaki monkfish with Brussels sprouts and lemongrass veloute, and chocolate rocher baubles with gingerbread for dessert.
That’s not all - over in Straits Bar, Ginger Lily and Silverleaf it’s cocktail o’clock with a handful of fun festive creations available for a limited time. If you’re planning a Christmas party with cocktails and nibbles, you can reserve a space in one of these sultry spaces.
Pan Pacific is also renowned for afternoon tea, curated by award-winning pastry chef Cherish Finden. Indulge in an enchanting festive afternoon tea in the hotel lounge, or drop into Finden’s SHIOK! patisserie house and take home some seasonal treats, including gingerbread houses, chocolate Christmas trees, fruit cakes and yule logs.
