The Sun Inn, Coate, Swindon
CHRISTMAS
Get everyone together this Christmas!
From 14th November 2026 until 3rd January 2027, Christmas takes over The Sun.
It's one of our favourite times of the year — tables filled with families, friends and work colleagues, festive food leaving the kitchen, glasses being raised and that atmosphere you only really get in a proper pub at Christmas.
And with our large restaurant, spacious pub, extensive car park and 10 hotel rooms nestled behind us in the garden, The Sun is perfectly set up for everything from dinner for two to the big annual Christmas get-together.
Festive Dining
We've approached our Christmas menu in exactly the same way as the rest of our food at The Sun — taking familiar, comforting favourites and giving them that little bit extra.
Whether it's the office Christmas meal, the annual family gathering or getting all your friends around one table, our large restaurant gives us the flexibility to accommodate both smaller celebrations and much bigger parties.
2 Courses — £28 per person
3 Courses — £35 per person
We haven't forgotten our younger guests either:
Children's 2 Courses — £13
Children's 3 Courses — £15
With NGCI and plant-based options available, we want everyone around the table to be able to properly enjoy their Christmas meal.
Christmas Parties
If your idea of a Christmas party involves a little less sitting down and a little more celebrating, talk to us about our festive party options.
Our Festive Buffet is £25 per person and includes your first drink, making it ideal for work parties, larger family celebrations and groups of friends.
You can even add canapés on arrival for £4 per person to get things started properly.
And one of the biggest advantages of celebrating at The Sun? Parking isn't an afterthought. Our large on-site car park makes life much easier when you're trying to bring a big group together from different places.
For anyone who doesn't fancy driving home afterwards, we also have 10 hotel rooms nestled behind the pub in our garden. Book your room directly with us and breakfast is included the following morning.
Your Christmas, Your Way
Not every Christmas celebration fits neatly into a package.
If you're planning something a little different, come and talk to us.
Richard and our kitchen team can work with you to create a bespoke menu or celebration around your group. Tell us what you're imagining, how many people you're bringing and what would make the occasion special, and we'll see what we can create together.
With the space of our restaurant, the pub, our garden and hotel, we have plenty of flexibility to make The Sun your own for the occasion.
