December fills up fast for anyone trying to book a group Christmas meal, and offices in particular tend to leave it later than they should. Here's what to know if you're organising a group or office Christmas party at Herb this year.
Why a set menu works well for groups
Herb's Christmas set menu is designed for exactly this kind of booking - one menu, one price, served the same way to the whole table, which makes organising a larger group considerably simpler than a full à la carte booking. At £33.95 per person, everyone orders the same 3-course menu, with a choice of starter and dietary options available on request.
What's included
A choice of starter, a pre-plated thali of Kerala mains, and a coconut pudding to finish, with complimentary Christmas crackers at the table. See our full Christmas menu breakdown for the complete dish list.
Deposits and service charge
A £5 deposit per person is required to secure a group booking. A discretionary 10% service charge applies to groups of 5 or more, and all prices include 20% VAT - worth factoring into a budget if you're organising on behalf of an office or larger group.
Dietary requirements across a group
Because the whole menu is vegetarian to begin with, and vegan, nut-free and gluten-free options are available, mixed dietary needs across an office group tend to be more straightforward here than at a traditional meat-focused Christmas menu - just let the team know requirements in advance of the visit.
Booking early
December dates at both branches go quickly once the festive season gets underway, so it's worth confirming your group size and preferred date as early as possible rather than waiting until closer to Christmas.
