Christmas Day Lunch in Belper? You’re in Luck!
Thought you’d left it too late to book Christmas Day lunch? You’re in luck!
We have some unexpected availability for Christmas Day at The Lion Hotel in Belper, which means there’s still a chance to swap the kitchen chaos for a Christmas feast with us.
No peeling potatoes. No juggling oven shelves. No mountain of washing up waiting when you’ve just settled down.
Just you, your favourite people and a rather lovely Christmas dinner.
Your Christmas dinner, taken care of
On Friday 25th December 2026, let our team do the hard work while you enjoy the occasion.
Our Christmas Day menu is £125 per person, with children under 12 half price, taking you from delicious starters through to a cheeseboard, coffee, petit fours and mince pies.
Because if there’s ever a day to make a proper meal of it, it’s Christmas Day.
Let’s talk turkey
For those who love a traditional Christmas dinner, our pancetta wrapped Norfolk Bronze turkey comes with chestnut stuffing, a pig in blanket, duck fat roast potatoes and turkey stock gravy.
Prefer something different? There’s roast sirloin of Derbyshire beef, Dover sole, duck and partridge ballantine, or chestnut mushroom and salt baked swede Wellington.
Before all that, you can choose from starters including crab beignets, smoked duck terrine and celeriac and truffle soup, followed by a spiced apple martini sorbet.
Much more exciting than checking the oven every ten minutes.
There’s always room for Christmas pudding
Or perhaps panettone trifle? Or chocolate and hazelnut choux?
Our desserts also include sticky toffee Christmas pudding and blood orange and Campari tart. We suggest having a good look at the menu before you decide. This might need some thought.
Then sit back and enjoy the cheeseboard and those final festive treats. You haven’t got any pans to scrub, after all.
