Christmas in Knightsbridge
with an Italian touch
Celebrate Christmas in the heart of Knightsbridge, with Harrods glowing just across the road and ALBA setting the scene for a memorable festive gathering. Gather around the table for Italian-inspired festive menus, generous dishes made for sharing and warm Italian hospitality. From intimate festive dinners to private parties and corporate celebrations, we bring people together, raise a glass and celebrate the season. We serve Christmas Eve until 7pm, close on Christmas Day, open as usual on Boxing Day, and welcome the New Year from 1pm through to 1am on 31 December.
Festive Menus
In Italy, Christmas is about gathering your favourite people around the table and filling it with food worth sharing. Our festive menus take inspiration from cucina della nonna, bringing beloved Italian recipes together with a modern ALBA touch and the finest seasonal ingredients. Expect exquisite seafood, freshly shaved truffle, handmade pasta, slow-cooked meats and festive dolci to finish. From our signature ALBA Panettone with mascarpone cream and Pandoro with Zabaione cream to classic Tiramisu served theatrically from the tray and our Christmas-edition Coconut Grand Gelato, there’s a sweet finale for every celebration. For group celebrations, we have created two festive set menus: 3-courses and 4-courses, while our festive à la carte menu will be available for regular bookings throughout the season.
