Christmas In July

Winter in the Dandenong Ranges is a great place to escape for a bit of Christmas in July. There are multiple restaurants offering special Christmas in July feasts throughout the month.

We wanted to try somewhere with an English flair so chose King Henry’s, a converted guest house circa 1902 and they did not disappoint!

The place was decked out in fairy lights, garland, baubles and a tree with Christmas music in the background. Of course the fireplace was also blazing making everything nice and cozy.

All through July, King Henry’s has a Christmas in July Banquet special.
Midweek: 2 Course $50, 3 Course $58.
Weekend: 2 Course $58 3 Course $65 pp

I had never tried a scallop pie so I gave that a whirl. It was Fantastic! My husband went for the traditional roast and was very happy.

The portions were definitely extra generous. Children are still welcome to order from the Kid’s menu complete with English Chip Butty, Fish and Chips, Burgers and more.

If you are more of an early bird, they also serve a full breakfast menu including a Great British Breakfast Board for One or Two People
