Season’s Eatings! Where To Book Your Christmas Day Feast In Brisbane

Hyatt Regency Brisbane is serving up two unforgettable Christmas Day lunch experiences to suit every festive mood. At Lennons Restaurant & Bar, indulge in Lennons Merry Feast – an elevated city celebration framed by polished interiors and sunlight streaming through glass panes. Enjoy a buffet lunch with festive favourites: roast turkey, honey-baked ham, vibrant seasonal salads, and decadent desserts worth going back for (more than once!). Prefer something more relaxed? Head to Hibiscus Bar & Terrace for a sun-soaked Hibiscus Poolside Buffet. Here, you can graze, sip, and linger at your own pace. Lounge by the pool with an ice-cold cocktail in hand, while enjoying coastal delights such as East Coast oysters and Steamed Daintree barramundi. With sandals, sunshine, and laid-back Queensland charm, Hibiscus is the perfect setting for a carefree Christmas celebration. Whatever your Christmas style – refined or relaxed – Hyatt Regency Brisbane has you covered. 

This Christmas, Naldham House is serving up a celebration as stylish as it is flavour-forward. With festive dining across The Brasserie, Club Felix, and The Fifty Six, the entire heritage building will be humming with holiday cheer. At The Fifty Six, expect a Cantonese-fusion feast with a decadent twist: Hervey Bay scallops kissed with black bean, fiery beef tartare with fermented chilli, and sweet-and-sour pork with charred pineapple. Dessert? Think deep-fried toffee ice cream and chocolate brownie mochi. Downstairs at The Brasserie and Club Felix, the vibe shifts to relaxed luxury. From lobster and porchetta to whole roasted rainbow trout and beloved duck-fat potatoes, prepare for a meal so good they may need to roll you out. With exquisite dishes, flowing drinks, and zero washing up, it’s the kind of Christmas lunch that feels effortlessly elegant. Seats are limited — secure your spot for this exclusive $250-per-person celebration.

Libertine is turning up the festive flavour with a two-hour, seven-course Christmas Day banquet that’s anything but ordinary. Think French-Vietnamese fusion at its finest – Moreton Bay Bug Toast with lime mayo and Libertine hot sauce, Duck and Ginger Egg Rolls with red chilli sauce, Wagyu Beef Tartare with fermented cabbage, and Crispy Mt Cotton Chicken glazed in tamarind and cumquat vinegar. With sittings at 11 am and 1:30 pm, this $189-per-person feast delivers all the indulgence, none of the fuss, and plenty of that luxe Libertine flair that will make Christmas extra special this year.  

Cloudland is celebrating Christmas Day with two distinct and delectable dining experiences, both served up in its opulent, inner-city escape. Put on your Christmas finery and take in the lush surrounds with a decadent four-course banquet in the Cloudland Garden (warning – seats are already filling up for the second sitting!). For $249 a head, tuck into a luxe share–style menu featuring apple and sage–stuffed turkey breast, herb-crusted lamb rack, all complemented by your favourite trimmings. Meanwhile, sip on free-flowing bubbles, sangria, and signature Watermelon Cooler cocktails with a three–hour premium drinks package – a sure-fire way to celebrate Christmas in style this year. For something more traditional, a Christmas Day Family Buffet is also taking over the Cloudland Rose Room – so good, it’s already sold out for 2025 (sorry!). From fresh seafood to tender chicken roast, vibrant summer salads to maple and mustard–glazed ham, there is something for every palate. Topped off with Christmas plum pudding or pavlovas for dessert, and drinks available for purchase, this festive feast promises to be an unforgettable evening to spend the holiday with loved ones. 

At Donna Chang, celebrate Christmas Day with a touch of Cantonese-inspired refined dining. With a four-course banquet starting at $288pp for adults and $99pp for kids, indulge in exquisite flavours, fresh local produce, and the signature flair that makes Donna Chang a Brisbane icon. Feasting begins with kingfish and finger lime, house-pickled cucumbers and ocean-fresh oysters, and moves through lobster bao, cumin lamb buns, and tea-smoked duck with plum glaze. There is something for every merrymaker at Donna Chang, with inclusive menu options for gluten-free, vegan, and no shellfish dietary requirements. And with a 2.5-hour premium drinks package to carry you softly into the evening, each guest can indulge in the total festive experience come December 25.  

Bisou Bisou is the perfect place to spend your festive season this year. Start Christmas Day with a morning espresso before indulging in a four-course Parisian-inspired lunch from 11:30 AM. Highlights include beetroot-cured salmon tartine, duck rillette with baby fig, chestnut and sage porchetta with garlic-rosemary potatoes, plus a mango and coconut trifle for those with a sweet tooth. Adults can dine for $189pp (and add a 2-hour drinks package for $55pp), while children under 12 are $99pp. Be sure to expect elegant French charm when dining amongst Bisou Bisou’s soft lighting, rustic-style tables, and the echo of clinking glasses. Because let’s be real… Christmas is always better à la française.
