How we chose
These are the pubs in and around Hillingdon that publish a 2026 Christmas Day menu with a price you can check. They are not our favourites. We started from the Food Standards Agency register for Hillingdon Council, left out anything rated below 3, and kept only places whose own website, or their pub company’s site, shows a 2026 Christmas Day price. Prices, dates and deposit rules come from those sites and menus on 2 November 2026. Some well-known pubs did not make the list: the Fig Tree and the Queen’s Head in Uxbridge and the George and Dragon in West Drayton have Christmas pages but no Christmas Day price, the Three Tuns publishes a festive menu but no Christmas Day one, we could find no 2026 Christmas Day page for Arens at the Six Bells in Ruislip, and the Crown and Treaty and the General Elliott hold FSA ratings of 1. Check with the pub before booking, as festive menus can change.
