If you’re looking for a Christmas party venue in London with unbeatable views, Vicinity in Tower Hill delivers in style. Located within The Tower Hotel, this chic riverside spot boasts a spacious, light-filled restaurant with floor-to-ceiling windows and a classic, minimalist design. Step outside to the open winter terrace and you’ll find cosy seating, fire pits and uninterrupted views of the River Thames and Tower Bridge - one of the most iconic backdrops in the capital.
Vicinity can be hired exclusively for up to 350 guests, with on-site accommodation making it a convenient choice for out-of-town visitors. There’s also a private group dining room overlooking Tower Bridge, ideal for smaller festive celebrations. Whether you’re planning a corporate Christmas party, a seasonal catch-up with friends, or a festive break rolled into one, the venue has packages to suit.
Festive menus offer a twist on tradition. Think starters like roast pumpkin soup, smoked salmon with pickled fennel, or crispy ‘ping pong’ fried chicken with spicy gochujang sauce. Mains range from the ultimate festive sandwich - a turkey and sage-onion sausage patty with crispy streaky bacon and cranberry sauce - to sirloin steak with triple-cooked chips, baked sea bass fillet, or a warming sticky rice pot with Chinese mushrooms. For dessert, seasonal panna cotta, panettone bread-and-butter pudding with brandy sauce, or chocolate and raspberry torte with sorbet make for a sweet finale.
You’ll also find festive afternoon tea, a lively bottomless brunch with 90 minutes of free-flowing drinks, a five-course Christmas Day menu, and a six-course New Year’s Eve celebration. With video conferencing available, flexible spaces and those unforgettable views, Vicinity is the perfect setting for a Christmas celebration to remember.
