Christmas and New Year
The Restaurant Ship Hispaniola, formerly Maid of Ashton, has rested at anchor alongside Victoria Embankment since 1973. Having been thoroughly refitted in 2002 to provide two decks of purpose-built restaurant and function room facilities, the R.S. Hispaniola betrays little of her working pedigree. With stunning views upstream towards the Houses of Parliament and London Eye and downstream through the arches of the Jubilee, Charing Cross and Hungerford Bridges to St. Paul's Cathedral, the R.S. Hispaniola offers a haven amidst the city bustle and an ideal venue for your Christmas celebrations. On 31st December she provides a grandstand location for the New Year's Eve firework display.
The restaurant, run by Head Chef Ba Diakhaby, is renowned for its excellent modern European cuisine with a Mediterranean twist and, together with one of the finest wine cellars on the river, you have all the ingredients for a Christmas Lunch, Christm as Dinner or New Year's Eve celebration to remember for a long time to come.
In addition to our extensive a-la-carte menu and set lunch and dinner menus which, for a supplement of £5 during December, can be enhanced with Christmas place settings, our special Christmas packages (see below) are also available for lunch and dinner for individuals and groups.
If you are looking to arrange a special event for a group and company, see also the set menus and cocktail reception menu on the Parties and Corporate Hospitality page.

 new year's eve
On New Year's Eve we really push the boat out (not literally, don't worry!) with a sumptuous dinner (see the menu above), live music, dancing .... and at midnight - join us in a glass of Champagne as we welcome the New Year and enjoy the spectacle of the firework display across the river from our grandstand seats.
The R.S.Hispaniola is always very popular New Year's Eve and, once again, we were sold out for 2007 well before December so make sure you book early to secure your places for 2008. |
