You’re Invited: This Riverfront Restaurant Is Hosting A Cosy Christmas In July Feast
One night only
By Bianca Licina | 14th July 2025We may not get snow in July — but who needs it when The Boatshed is serving up serious winter wonderland vibes right on the water? For one magical night, Christmas comes early… dressed in crisp linen, candlelight, and the kind of food that makes you forget it’s technically not December.
Their Christmas in July soirée is a love letter to all things festive — minus the sticky summer heat and family drama. It’s all about good wine, great company, and plates that deserve their own holiday.
What’s on the menu?
The multi-course spread is a dreamy blend of festive nostalgia and elevated winter flavours. You’ll kick things off with velvety smoked salmon, followed by crispy pork belly with spiced apple, roast striploin with maple-glazed carrots, and honey-glazed ham paired with pineapple chutney. And just when you think you’re done? Along comes a pavlova trifle and gingerbread cheesecake with warm caramel. It’s Christmas, after all — so seconds and even thirds are encouraged.
The vibe? Cosy, classy, and oh-so-festive
The Boatshed doesn’t just serve food — it sets a mood. With twinkling lights, waterfront views, and smooth jazz covers of holiday classics (Mariah-free, promise), the atmosphere is pure midwinter magic. It’s all the best bits of Christmas — without the drama, shopping lists, or rogue relatives. Just intimate, wintry indulgence at its finest.
Ready to feast?
If you’re a fan of festive flavours, moody views, and an excuse to get dressed up in the middle of July, this event is a must. It’s the kind of evening that proves just how good winter in Brissy can be.
