For us at That’s Christmas 365, it needed to reflect what Christmas means to us all year round: warmth, inclusion, comfort, good food, and a genuinely welcoming atmosphere.
That’s exactly why we chose Novello Lounge, part of the much-loved Loungers family, for our company Christmas meal.
A Space That Feels Like Christmas
From the moment you walk in, Novello Lounge feels relaxed and inviting rather than rushed or overstated. At Christmas, that matters. Festive meals shouldn’t feel like a conveyor belt of bookings or a noisy free-for-all.
The Lounge strikes a perfect balance: cosy without being cramped, lively without being overwhelming. It’s a place where you can actually talk, laugh, and enjoy the occasion.
Inclusive, Welcoming, and Thoughtful
One of the reasons Loungers venues consistently stand out is their genuinely inclusive ethos. Christmas should be for everyone, and Novello Lounge reflects that beautifully.
The environment is approachable, staff are attentive without hovering, and there’s no pressure to behave a certain way or fit a particular mould. That sense of ease is something we value deeply as a brand that champions kindness, accessibility, and community.
Food That Works for Everyone
A company Christmas meal needs a menu that caters to different tastes, appetites, and dietary requirements without making anyone feel like an afterthought. Novello Lounge excels here. From comforting festive favourites to lighter options, plant-based dishes, and generous sharing plates, everyone at the table can find something they genuinely want to eat. Christmas food should be enjoyed, not endured.
No Stuffy Formality
We love Christmas traditions, but we don’t believe they have to come wrapped in stiff formality. Novello Lounge offers quality food and drink without the intimidating price tags or rigid dining rules that can drain the joy from a festive get-together.
It’s Christmas dining that feels human, relaxed, and real – which aligns perfectly with the That’s Christmas 365 ethos.
Supporting Community-Focused Hospitality
Loungers bars are known for embedding themselves into their local communities, and that matters to us. Choosing Novello Lounge wasn’t just about having a nice meal; it was about supporting a hospitality brand that values people, accessibility, and consistency across the year – not just in December.
A Christmas Choice That Reflects Our Values
Ultimately, Novello Lounge wasn’t just a convenient choice. It was the right choice. Warm, welcoming, inclusive, and festive without being forced, it offered exactly what a company Christmas meal should: a chance to slow down, enjoy good food, and celebrate the season together.
For us at That’s Christmas 365, that’s what Christmas is all about – not just one day a year, but every day.
