Christmas dinner at BIRD Rotterdam on 26 December

HAPPENING 26 DEC 2025 | Want Christmas dinner in Rotterdam without spending your whole day cooking or washing up? BIRD is opening on 26 December with a full multi-course X-mas dinner, including vegetarian options, plus live music according to the venue.

 

The X-mas dinner is happening on Friday 26 December 2025, and BIRD says you can sit down from 17:00. You’ll find it on Raampoortstraat, close to Rotterdam Centraal, so you can keep the travel part easy and focus on the fun part. BIRD also notes that the restaurant is otherwise closed from 22 December to 5 January, so this is a one-night exception during the holiday break.

 

BIRD X-mas dinner menu

This is a set multi-course menu, starting with an amuse and ending with dessert, with vegetarian alternatives listed where it makes sense.

On the menu: crostini with smoked duck breast, fig marmalade and toasted hazelnut (with a vegetarian version featuring roasted eggplant purée, mint, pomegranate seeds and dried olive crunch), then creamy celeriac soup with two scallops (or pumpkin soup with fried sage and roasted pumpkin seeds). There’s an intermezzo of ginger spoon with basil-tarragon sorbet, followed by lamb tenderloin with salsa verde, polenta, oyster mushroom and sea lavender (or a stuffed portobello with Mediterranean vegetables and halloumi). Dessert is chocolate cheesecake with amarena cherries and liqueur syrup.
