You are sure to find a great Christmas dinner when you combine all of these riches with the indulgence of a delicious holiday feast.

Reservations for traditional lunches on Christmas Day will fill up early, so be sure to get your request in as soon as you can.
There are many choices for your holiday meal. Dawson Street near St Stephen’s Green is a great place to start your search, it’s a bustling and filled with restaurants such as the atmospheric local favourite The Mansion.

FAQs about Christmas Dinner Venues in Dublin
How much does it cost to have a Christmas dinner in Dublin?

Dublin restaurants generally charge per person and generally offer a set menu. Prices here will range from €27 to €40 per person. Hotel Christmas Dinners can start at €100 - €250 per person. Some hotels offer buffet options which can be cheaper, (approx. €99) and do offer half-price options for young children.
How can I make my Christmas dinner in Dublin more affordable?
If you’re looking for a more affordable option for your Christmas dinner, search for venues that operate on a minimum spend basis. With this option, you don’t have to pay a hire fee but agree to spend a set amount on food and drinks. If you’re organising a Christmas dinner for a smaller group, renting a private dining room rather than a whole venue may be a more affordable option.
