In between your post-work drinks and midnight mass there’s the not-too-insignificant matter of Christmas Eve meal planning. We’re big fans of a ‘special’ meal here at Aubrey Allen and our guide to the top dinner choices on the 24th December reflect just how much we love a fantastic celebratory meal on the night before Christmas…
๐ Sirloin Steak
A delicious, tender prime cut that we love with home cooked chips and chef’s peppersteak sauce!

๐ Game Casserole
A classic, comforting dish but with added richness thanks to the selection of venison, rabbit, pheasant and partridge. Our Cornish farmed venison is produced with the highest welfare standards, a luxury meat with a deep gamey flavour.
This is a Christmas Eve meal to enjoy with family and friends, alongside crusty bread and a great bottle of red.
For truly wonderful Christmas wines visit our friends The Leamington Wine Company or Wine Poole – both fantastic independent wine merchants.
๐ Rack of Lamb
๐ Beef Wellington
It’s a show-stopper, a crowd pleaser and a meal fit for any special occasion. An Aubrey’s beef wellington is made by our very own chef using grass fed fillet of beef for the ultimate tenderness. Wrapped in mushroom duxelle and pastry (and complete with cooking instructions) you can’t go wrong.
For vegetarian guests at the dinner table take a look at our Spiced Butternut Squash and Goats Cheese Wellington.
๐ Cote de Boeuf
Aubrey’s cote de boeuf is the ideal sharing dish for an intimate Christmas Eve celebration. This delicious rib of beef chop is fully trimmed and ready to cook. It’s an ideal cut for beef lovers, dry aged on the bone for exceptional flavour and tenderness.
