We know.

It’s August.

Nobody wants to talk about it yet.

But unfortunately some of you frighteningly organised people are already asking us about the C-word.

So, reluctantly, we’ve done it.
CHRISTMAS 2026 AT THE DRAWING BOARD IS NOW LIVE.
There. We said it.

The new menu is up, the booking diary is open and we’ve been cocking about with festive food for months so you don’t have to think about it until December.

Expect proper Christmas dinner, pigs in blankets, evil sprouts and all the bits that would cause a family argument if we left them out — alongside plenty of distinctly DB alternatives involving Chicken & waffle, duck, cod, prawn cocktail and other festive-ish nonsense.

Office parties. Family gatherings. Mates who haven’t managed to organise a night out since last Christmas. People you work with all year but only discover are absolute liabilities after three glasses of wine.

The C-word is officially happening.
🎅 Full menu now live on our website.
🎄 Christmas bookings are OPEN.

Book it now.
Then we can all agree not to mention the C-word again until at least November.
