‘A Crooked Christmas ’ - Black tie Dinnersat The Crooked House, Lavenham

Our award-winning Black tie Dinners at The Crooked House are immersive, sociable experiences, bringing to life the 600-year story of our ancient home.

These popular dining experiences take place on specific dates throughout the year, often marking key celebratory occasions. Each time, we welcome 16 guests into our home for a Champagne Reception, followed by a hearty home-cooked three-course meal, enjoyed together around our dining table.

Hosted and cooked by the Crooked Men, these magical evenings are very special occasions, with a ‘black tie’ dress code to match. The perfect excuse to get dressed up, for a truly memorable night!

Our next Black tie Dinners are…‘A Crooked Christmas ’

Due to a major restoration project taking place at The Crooked House in the second half of 2026, our next Black tie Dinners will be in December, celebrating ‘A Crooked Christmas’.

Built in 1395, our ancient home has seen six centuries of Christmas - from Medieval and Tudor Yuletide to Victorian traditions and our very own modern-day Christmas love story.

Join us to celebrate Christmas at The Crooked House with this magical, immersive dining experience that will leave you feeling fabulously festive!
