The holidays can be a stressful time, so why not give yourself a break and let someone else do the cooking? White Rock’s restaurants want to make sure that your holiday feast hits the mark without any of the stress of slaving in the kitchen! With delicious menus including all of the fixings, and options for dine-in or take-out, this year’s dinner might just be the most relaxing yet!

Hillcrest Bakery & Deli

Hillcrest Bakery & Deli have been taking care of Christmas Dinner for White Rock locals for the past 10+ years. Their homestyle turkey dinners are made lovingly from scratch and include all of the fixings – roast turkey, mashed potato, stuffing, veggies, gravy, cranberry sauce, and your choice of a butter tart or a mincemeat tart! Portions are generous, and there will definitely be leftovers. Dinner is $30.95 per person and can be picked up or delivered on December 23 or 24. Be sure to order early as they always sell out!

Gather your friends and family and head to the Boathouse White Rock this year for Christmas Eve, or Christmas Day dinner.  Their delicious 3-course meal features traditional holiday favourites and some Boathouse classics.

And for dessert choose from a New York cheesecake, Creme Brulee or Chocolate Lava Cake. Dinner is $80 per person, and is available Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. Reservations are strongly recommended. (14935 Marine Drive)  If you’d rather take your Christmas dinner to go, order a Holiday Family Pack for $225 which serves a family of 6.

Laura’s Coffee Corner

Let the folks at Laura’s Coffee Corner take care of dinner this Christmas! Not only are they a long-time local’s favourite coffee shop, but they also whip up a mean turkey dinner. For just $28.90 (per person) enjoy traditional roast turkey, stuffing, roast potatoes, seasonal roasted vegetables, gravy and cranberry sauce!
