There’s a lot happening this Christmas across Merchant of Venice and our neighbours at Vantom Village, so here’s everything in one place — the festive menu, the party nights, the market, and gift vouchers for anyone still deciding what to buy.
1. The Christmas Menu, All Three Locations
From 1st December 2026, Granby Street, Loseby Lane and Patchings Art Centre are all serving a 3-course Italian Christmas menu at £36.95pp — think burrata, truffle risotto, ribeye and a sticky toffee pudding to finish. Read the full Christmas menu here, or go straight to download the menu (PDF).
2. Christmas Party Nights at Vantom Village
For a bigger night out, Christmas Party Nights at Vantom Village run on 21st November and 5th December, £39pp, with a festive dinner, live music, a magician and dancing until late. Private party bookings are open from 1st November for corporate groups, families and friends.
3. The Christmas Market
If you’d rather browse than book a table, the Christmas Market at Vantom Village runs 6th–8th November and 18th–20th December, with independent traders, festive food and gifts, right next to Merchant of Venice at Patchings.
4. Gift Vouchers, for Everyone Still Deciding
Not sure what to get someone? A Merchant of Venice gift voucher lets the recipient choose their own evening — starters, mains, dessert and drinks across any of our three locations. Read more in our guide to gift vouchers, or head straight to the gift vouchers page to buy one.
