Christmas in Maida Vale deserves something a little special, and at The Prince Alfred, we’re pulling out all the stops.
From indulgent festive dining and Christmas Day lunch to champagne-popping drinks parties and intimate celebrations in our private Cellars, there’s plenty to raise a glass to this season.
Nestled in the heart of Maida Vale, just moments from Little Venice and Warwick Avenue, our beautiful Victorian pub is full of festive charm. Think twinkling lights, cosy corners, seasonal cocktails and tables piled high with Christmas favourites.
Gather your loved ones, leave the planning to us and make this Christmas one to remember.
Christmas is all about good food, great company and finding an excuse to indulge (as if we needed one).
Gather your favourite people around the table, where our beautiful Victorian dining room sets the scene for festive feasting in Maida Vale. From long-overdue catch-ups with friends to the annual office Christmas lunch, our seasonal menus are packed with delicious dishes, traditional favourites and plenty of festive flair.
Expect generous helpings, glasses kept topped up and absolutely no need to tackle the washing up. Just settle in, tuck in and let us take care of the rest.

Pop the fizz, round up the gang and let the festivities begin.
From office Christmas parties to end-of-year celebrations with friends, The Prince Alfred is the perfect spot for raising a glass (or several) in Maida Vale. Take over one of our characterful Victorian spaces, settle into our iconic bar or head downstairs to our wonderfully unique Cellars for a festive get-together with a difference.
With flowing drinks, tempting party food and plenty of Christmas cheer, we’ve got all the ingredients for a proper knees-up. All you need to do is bring the people. And perhaps your best Christmas jumper.

Looking for the ultimate VIP experience, with a unique backdrop? Our private basement nook, The Cellars, provides just that.
With space for up to 30 guests, seated or standing, your festivities just got the upgrade you didn’t know you needed.

What says ‘you’re special to me’ more than the gift of togetherness, later down the line?
If you can’t make it to the pub before Christmas itself, give your loved ones a present that will never be re-gifted. It beats another pair of socks or a novelty mug any day, and it’s something to look forward to (valid for up to twelve months).
