Festive family morning with a special visit from Father Christmas and a gift for every child at The Chester Townhouse.
The Chester Townhouse is hosting Breakfast with Santa on Saturday 5 December, with the same thing running on Saturday 12 and Saturday 19 December too. It's a festive family morning: a proper breakfast and a visit from Santa, and every child gets a gift. The whole thing starts at 9.30 am, so it's one of those early starts that gets you home and sorted before the rest of the day has even kicked in.
The Townhouse is on Lower Bridge Street, right in the heart of the city. It's a hotel and tearoom that's been recently refurbished, with a new Garden Terrace, and it's one of those independent spots that a lot of locals know as a bit of a hidden gem. It does breakfast, brunch and afternoon tea, and that indoor-outdoor terrace doubles as a wedding venue, so it's a space that works as well for a quiet morning as it does for something bigger.

The morning is built around meeting Father Christmas while he's gearing up for his Christmas Eve schedule. The story goes that he loves his food, so the whole thing is framed around families joining him for brunch or afternoon tea. It's a simple enough setup—breakfast, a visit from Santa, and a gift for the kids—and because it runs across three Saturdays in December, you can pick the date that fits your plans best. Booking ahead is advised, so it's worth getting your table sorted early rather than leaving it to chance. The dates are Saturday 5, 12 and 19 December, all starting at 9.30 am at The Chester Townhouse on Lower Bridge Street.
