You may well feel that this is premature. Forgive us. Each year, like the instinct of emigrating birds, the first chill in the air is accompanied by a flurry of emails all clamouring for news of one thing - our much-anticipated New Year’s Eve extravaganza. And so we are heeding that cry, with the release of tickets before even Guy Fawkes night has lit up the autumn skies.
At St. JOHN Smithfield the annual traditions persist - a glorious feast held at long tables and served convivially on generously heaped sharing platters, as befits such a jolly occasion. And then, after dinner, the lights dim and the bar is transformed into a dance floor, the disco ball twinkles, the band plays exuberantly and the Negronis flow until 1am, when your tired feet carry you home, sated and happy.
And what excitements to host our first ever St. JOHN Marylebone New Year’s Eve, a cornucopia of delights to set your intention for the year ahead. Perfect nibbles of Caviar and Potato Cake, Smoked Eel nestles in puff pastry and horseradish, and then the centrepiece - blushing Roast Goose, generously sauced and served with mashed potato rich with goose fat and garlic. The silky wobble of Crème Caramel makes the perfect end to your meal, the perfect beginning to your year. At Marylebone we are holding two seatings for the evening, the first of which is for those who are due at parties later, or who prefer to welcome in the New Year cosily enclosed in their bedsheets; the second of which allows you to see in the New Year along with us, glasses and spirits raised.
All will be occasions of great giddy enjoyment, all can be reserved via the link below:
