Festive Feasting

Christmas at Permit Room Oxford. There’s turkey, cranberries, festive hats. But it tastes a little different here. Think Turkey. Biryani. Layered and layered with tender spiced turkey and flavourful rice, under a puff pastry casing. Tables flooded with food and high-spirits. Snacks, Savouries, Small Plates shared by all. Don’t come for pigs in blankets – we have Samosas and Chaats. Bring the crowd. It’s that time of the year to have a party. Deliciously different. That’s all.

On the Christmas menu

Fill your festive boots

A full-on Festive Feast. Served for groups of four or more. Veg, Non-Veg and Vegan menus packed with dishes to spark a good time. Peanut Masala, Crispy Chilli Chips and Chicken Pick-Me-Ups are plates for picking. Dishoom faves and Biryanis fill the table. The festive special Turkey Biryani is layered with all good things. Served to share, for larger groups to devour together.

There's very, merry breakfast specials too. Dishoom’s best breakfast turns festive with the Bacon & Brie Naan Roll. Naughty but unmistakably nice.

Smaller groups can order festive specials and drinks alongside café favourites from the All-Day Menu.
