The best place in Bristol for your
Christmas Celebrations
The best time of the year
For Christmas Cheer
Christmas by Bristol Harbour
Celebrate the season in style at Riverstation, where twinkling lights meet harbour views and festive dining feels that little bit more special.
Whether you’re gathering for a leisurely dinner for two in our Pontoon bar or hosting a more formal three-course celebration, our stunning waterside setting is made for memorable moments.
Our Christmas menu takes centre stage, paired perfectly with mulled cider, chilled Prosecco, or one of our handcrafted seasonal cocktails. However you choose to celebrate, let us add a touch of Riverstation magic to your festivities.
Our Gift to You This Christmas
We believe the best celebrations come with a touch of generosity. So this festive season, we’re giving a little something back.
Book your Christmas party in the final weeks of November or on selected December dates, and we’ll welcome you with a complimentary Prosecco reception to start the celebrations in style. You’ll also enjoy a little extra treat from us towards your final bill as our way of saying thank you for celebrating by the water.
Whether it’s a get-together with friends or a team celebration, make this Christmas feel truly special. Sparkling glasses, seasonal plates, and all the magic of Riverstation at its most festive.

New Year's Eve
Ring in the New Year with a glass in hand and the harbour lights sparkling around you. At Riverstation, we’ll serve up exquisite food, flowing drinks and an atmosphere made for celebrating in style, the perfect setting to welcome 2026 with friends, family and a little sparkle..
Christmas Cocktails
Start the season with a splash of something special – our Christmas cocktails are here to set the tone. From timeless classics to (everyone’s favourite) espresso martini or a touch of fizz in a Champagne cocktail, each sip is expertly shaken and styled with festive flair. Perfectly paired with our seasonal menus, they’re the ideal way to toast to the most wonderful time of the year.
Christmas Day
This Christmas Day, step away from the oven and into something more comfortable – like a seat at our table. Let our chefs treat you to a lovingly prepared three-course feast, filled with festive favourites and seasonal indulgence, while you sit back, relax, and soak up the magic with your nearest and dearest.
Private Hire Spaces
For a more refined and intimate celebration, our private dining room offers the perfect setting.
Tucked away on the first floor of our restaurant, this beautifully appointed space is ideal for those seeking a more formal Christmas gathering. Enjoy our three-course Christmas Feast menu in complete privacy, surrounded by warm hospitality and harbour views.
