11 Dec is the final day to book Christmas dinner at pubs/restaurants to avoid disappointment.

Pub manager Luke Slater advises that December 11 is the final day to book Christmas dinner at many pubs and restaurants to avoid disappointment. Early reservations help businesses manage deposits and pre-orders, ensuring adequate staffing and food preparation. As the popularity of dining out for Christmas grows, Slater recommends patrons secure bookings promptly to find a venue that meets their preferences and avoid overbooking issues.
