Why Bamboo-Mat

Not another turkey dinner.

◇ The table

Food made for sharing.

Ceviche, sushi and dishes from the charcoal grill: Japanese precision and Peruvian heat, brought to the middle of the table so the conversation starts on its own.

◇ The bar

A proper bar.

Raise a pisco sour to the year you've had. Signature cocktails, sake and Japanese whisky carry the evening, with mocktails for anyone not drinking.

◇ 20+ guests

Bring everyone.

The whole office, your team, or the friends you only gather once a year, for a long festive lunch or a relaxed dinner. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free dishes are marked across the menu, so every guest is covered.

The year's last toast.
A table that keeps filling up.
Christmas, the Nikkei way.

Questions, answered.

What's the minimum group size?

Christmas parties are for groups of 20 or more. For a smaller table, book online at either restaurant.

How far ahead can we enquire?

Any date from tomorrow up to a year ahead. The earlier you get in touch, the more dates and times are open for December.

Can you cater for dietary requirements?

Yes. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free dishes are marked across our menu. Let us know about any requirements or allergies in your enquiry and we'll plan around them.

Which venue should we choose?

Canary Wharf is two floors on the waterfront with a VIP cocktail lounge upstairs; Stratford is our East Village restaurant. Not sure? Pick either in the form, mention it in your notes, and we'll help you decide.

Is my booking confirmed when I send the form?

Not yet. Sending the form starts the conversation: our team replies by email within 24 hours to confirm availability, menus and details, and your booking is confirmed once everything is agreed.
