Six-course festive tasting menu inspired by iconic Christmas films, with songs from the Plymouth choir Blokes Who Sing.
The Box is hosting Christmas Movies Served on Friday 4 December, a six-course tasting menu inspired by some of the most iconic Christmas films ever made. It's one of their tasting events, and the previous ones have sold out, so it's worth getting your ticket in early if you're keen.
The meal is built around six courses, each one developed to capture something recognisable about a particular film rather than simply recreating food that appears on screen. As you move through the courses, the evening is threaded through with songs connected to those films, so the music and the food run alongside each other throughout the night. The music comes from Blokes Who Sing, an award-winning, inclusive male voice choir based here in Plymouth. They've been around since 2020 and are known for an eclectic mix of folk, contemporary music, musical theatre, swing and popular classics, which fits the variety of films they'll be drawing from.

It's a long evening, so clear your schedule for it. Doors open at 6.30pm and dinner service starts at 7pm, and the whole thing runs through to 10.30pm. A standard ticket is £55, which is non-refundable. Between the six courses and the live music from Blokes Who Sing, it's a full night out rather than just a quick meal, so it works as a proper festive outing in the city. If you're after a Christmas dinner that does something a bit different with the usual traditions, this is a good shout.
