DO you live in Ealing and Acton? If so, you should know there are few places in the capital that do Christmas as well.
From the traditional to the eclectic, our friends at Winkworth Ealing and Acton have picked out unmissable things to see, do and eat around town this holiday season.
For all the information on these events, just click the links provided.
To See:
- Christmas ghost stories may have you thinking of Oliver Twist – but The White Carnation at Questor’s Theatre is just as touching. It’s a must-watch (along with the annual panto).
- Turkey and a trapeze? That’s what to expect at The Aeronaut pub’s Christmas Dinner + Circus Show: a full three-course meal, topped off with incredible feats of acrobatics.
- See Pitzhanger Manor’s majestic halls thoroughly decked during Pitzhanger Lates - with carols, mince pies and wine aplenty in the magnificent former stately home.
To Do:
- Part of a choir group or a band in search of a gig? Ealing Broadway Christmas Market has a stage to fill – so be the reason people stay a bit longer over their cup of mulled wine.
- Step back into simpler times, when toys were made of wood and Father Christmas was a lush shade of green. Make it a Christmas for the ages with a visit to Gunnersbury’s Grotto.
- Put your wellies and gloves on for Festivities at the Farm (Horsenden Farm, to be precise), with live music, pizza, goodies from The Horsenden Loaf and brews from Perivale Brewery.
To Eat:
- What’s spiced, soul-warming and just right for this time of year? Duck ramen. Make this special festive dish at Tonkotsu your newest Christmas tradition.
- Turkey with all the trimmings at The Fox, beef shin and chestnut mushroom pie at The New Inn and turkey, brie and bacon sliders at The Grange… you are spoilt for festive choices at three of Ealing’s cosiest pubs.
- Enjoy a sweet wintry treat with none of the meat (or any animals, for that matter) with a warming, doughy cinnamon bun from Benji’s Buns
Property experts Winkworth Ealing and Acton hope they can help you fill your festive calendar and enjoy the attractions, cultural sites and shops our community has to offer.
