Festive family breakfast with a visit from Father Christmas, a small Christmas surprise for each child and a chance to write and post a letter to Santa.
Breakfast with Santa returns to The Six Bells on Sunday 29 November, and it's not just a one-off this year. The pub is running it across four Sundays: 29 November, 5, 12 and 19 December, so you can pick the date that works best for your family. Breakfast bookings run between 9am and 10am, with the exact time still to be confirmed.
It's a family breakfast with Father Christmas as the main draw. He'll be visiting the pub in person, and every child gets a small Christmas surprise to take home. There's also a spot to write and post a letter to Santa, which should keep the smaller ones occupied while the adults actually get to eat. The pub describes it as Father Christmas 'dusting off his boots' and making his way back to the pub after last year's run.
The Six Bells is a characterful 16th-century freehouse in St Michael's village, just a short walk from the city centre, the Abbey and Verulamium Park. It's a proper old pub, so it fits the whole festive, low-key morning vibe. If you're driving in, Verulamium Car Park is the closest option, about two minutes on foot from the door.

They've added two extra dates this year because last year's event sold out so quickly, and they're expecting tickets to go just as fast this time around. With four dates to choose from, you've got a bit more breathing room, but it's still worth getting your booking in early if you're set on a particular Sunday. Breakfast bookings are between 9am and 10am, and the pub is at 16-18 St Michael's Street, St Albans, AL3 4SH.
