Celebrate the festive season at Tendril, a plant-first restaurant just moments from Oxford Circus. Whether you’re planning an office Christmas party, festive dinner with friends or an end-of-year gathering with family, Tendril offers a cosy and contemporary setting in the heart of central London, with options for both exclusive hire and private dining.
Tendril’s warm terracotta interiors, soft lighting and intimate atmosphere make it particularly inviting during the winter months. Groups of 21 to 30 guests can enjoy a more private celebration in the dedicated back room, while larger parties can opt for exclusive hire of the entire restaurant, accommodating up to 52 seated guests.
Festive menus showcase Tendril’s creative approach to plant-first cooking, placing seasonal vegetables and sustainable ingredients centre stage. The festive early bird menu begins with the kitchen cocktail of the day before moving on to dishes such as slow-cooked beetroot with sage butter glaze, lemon tahini with burnt garlic crumbs.
Mains include options such as massaman squash with butter bean spread and confit garlic or baked Mastello with herb crumbs and spiced lentils, while Christmas pudding served with custard provides a suitably festive finish. Guests can also add an espresso martini to round off the meal.
For those looking for a more substantial dining experience, Tendril's main dinner menu expands the offering with dishes such as wild mushroom ragout with spring onion rosti and smoked aubergine parfait served with pickles and pan-seared flatbread, alongside a range of seasonal vegetable-led plates designed for sharing.
A selection of festive drinks, cocktails, wines, beers and soft drinks complements the menus, making it easy to tailor celebrations to suit different groups and budgets. Combining inventive plant-based cooking with a central London location and flexible event spaces, Tendril offers an alternative, meat-free setting for Christmas parties and festive dining.
