Make your Christmas extra special this year by booking for a festive feast in one of these Watford restaurants.

There's nothing quite like a full-on Christmas dinner but for many of us our homes will be a little quieter than usual which makes festive preparation this year a slightly different challenge. 

So why not take the stress out of the big day and leave the cooking to the professionals?
