Star seafood
Push the boat out with a showstopping seafood starter this Christmas. Order these sweet and juicy lobster tails, topped with a rich langoustine, herb and garlic butter and a sprinkle of fresh herbs. For a twist on a classic prawn cocktail, look to our new Collection Lobster, Salmon and Prawn Towers – layers of hot and cold smoked salmon, creamy garlic mousse, plump Honduran prawns and watercress mousse, topped with the finest lobster and king prawns. Love to share? Discover our collection of platters, like our Collection British Oysters and Collection Ultimate Luxury Shellfish Platter, all loaded with the very best responsibly sourced seafood, vibrant garnishes and flavour-packed sauces.
Top-notch turkeys
Whether you’re keeping things low key or feeding a crowd, we’ve got the tastiest turkey joint or crown waiting for you online. Fancy something fool proof that avoids any last-minute kitchen disasters? Choose Our Best Ever Slow Cooked Turkey – slow-cooked free-range Pembrokeshire turkey crown, brined with buttermilk for ultimate tenderness and sweetness, paired with thighs that are topped with chestnut and pork stuffing and applewood smoked bacon. This brilliant bird is perfect for those who like the convenience of a crown but also the flavour of thigh meat. It’s complete with our rich Ultimate Meat Gravy, so all that's left to decide is which sides to choose.
A very veggie Christmas
Following a vegetarian and vegan diet should never mean missing out on your favourite festive flavours and Christmas Food to Order has veggie and vegan delights covered, from must-try mains to plant-powered puds. Tuck into this loaded nut roast, filled with kidney beans, almonds, cashew nuts, cranberries and Barber’s Cheddar. For a plant-based main that everyone will love (not just the vegans around your table), order our Plant Kitchen No Turkey Crown. This wheat and pea-based centrepiece is filled with a chestnut, apple and caramelised onion stuffing and topped with a vegan garlic and sage melt.
Seriously tasty showstoppers
Feeling extra fancy and want to really impress your guests? Our Collection British Wagyu Rump of Beef is a no brainer. Specially sourced for its beautiful marbled quality and matured for 30 days to ensure it's super succulent and tender it comes with a beef bone marrow and mustard butter for you to baste the joint as it cooks. Discover more wow-worthy centrepieces, including British pork, lamb and game, on Christmas Food to Order now.
All the trimmings
A Christmas feast would be nothing without the trimmings! Discover our selection of showstopping sides, including our Collection Tartiflette – sliced British potatoes baked with melty gruyère cheese, smoked pancetta, crème fraîche, sweet caramelised onions and a splash of white wine (it is Christmas after all!). Serve this fuss-free, French-inspired side alongside your turkey for extra indulgence or enjoy as part of your Boxing Day buffet. Plus, we’ve got all the classics covered too, like goose-fat roasties, braised red cabbage, pigs in blankets (bonus: they’re double-wrapped this Christmas) and sage and onion stuffing balls.
Eyes on these pies
Make the days around Christmas as stress free as possible by having a few of our deep-filled, hand-finished pies to hand to keep hungry visitors happy. Our Collection Wagyu Beef Pie is packed with slow-cooked British wagyu beef with ale-caramelised onions and topped with golden all-butter puff pastry. Go full-on festive with our Turkey and Stuffing Pie that coats succulent British turkey and sage and onion stuffing in a creamy sauce. The finishing touch? All-butter pastry and pigs in blankets, of course. Rounding off this trio is our new Collection Shellfish Thermidor Pie – a luxurious mix of responsibly sourced king prawns, scallops, lobster and langoustine tails in a creamy thermidor sauce. It’s finished with a creamy mash, cheesy parsley crumb and a whole langoustine for extra wow.
Dazzling desserts
From traditional fruit-filled favourites, like our Collection 12-Month Matured Christmas Pudding, to the tastiest chocolate creations, like our outrageously chocolatey Our Best Ever Yule Log, find your dream big-day dessert on Christmas Food to Order. Out top pick? It’s got to be the brand-new Collection Popping Down the Chimney Dessert. Made using an exclusive-to-M&S roof-shaped mould, it’s filled with a dark and milk chocolate mousse and an oozing butterscotch caramel sauce on a white chocolate and toasted popcorn crisp base. The final touch is a sweet white chocolate mousse “snow” coating and super-cute edible chimney and Santa decorations.
