Lebanese Christmas table in Stockholm
A julbord that starts in Beirut and lands in Östermalms Saluhall.
Our Christmas table isn't herring and meatballs. It's a long table of cold and warm meze, charcoal-grilled dishes, and Lebanese pastries — the same way of eating as the rest of the year, at Christmas pace and with Christmas company.
We host everything from families and friends to whole companies, either in the restaurant or in one of our own rooms upstairs.
What's on the table
The Christmas table is served as a generous meze spread: dips and cold dishes first, then warm small plates and the grill platters, and sweets to finish. Food comes out to be shared, not plated.
The exact spread shifts with the season and the size of the party — email us and we'll send this year's menu and price.
Hoummos
Chickpea purée with sesame paste and cumin.
Mhamara
Spiced pepper relish with walnuts and pomegranate molasses.
Tarator de jez
Chicken in sesame paste with pickled cucumber.

Gat mashawi

Company Christmas dinners and large parties
The company Christmas dinner is one of the year's biggest bookings, and the one we plan hardest around. We can seat your party in its own room, serve seated or as a buffet, and adapt the menu to allergies and preferences in advance.
Stora matsalen seats 50 and has a DJ booth for evenings that carry on after the food. Chefs Table seats 35 in a more secluded spot near the kitchen. Balkongen seats 60 with a view over the market hall. For genuinely large parties, the whole restaurant can be booked.
Christmas catering
If the Christmas table needs to be somewhere other than here, we'll deliver it. Christmas catering runs on the same meze and grill menu and scales from a single office room to a hundred guests.
Get in touch early — December books far ahead, and these dishes need lead time.
Booking and terms
The Christmas table is booked per party rather than per cover. Send us the date, the number of guests, and any allergies, and we'll come back with the menu, price, and this season's cancellation terms.
Cancellation terms differ between smaller and larger parties and are reset each year — we send them in writing with the quote, so nothing sits going stale on a web page.
Questions & answers
- What is a Lebanese Christmas table?
- A julbord built on Lebanese meze instead of Swedish Christmas classics: cold and warm small plates, charcoal-grilled skewers, and Lebanese pastries, laid out to be shared around the table.
- Do you host company Christmas dinners?
- Yes. We have three rooms for private parties — Stora matsalen (50), Chefs Table (35), and Balkongen (60) — and the whole restaurant can be booked for larger companies.
- Can you deliver the Christmas table to us?
- Yes, we do Christmas catering on the same menu. Email event@beirutcafe.se with the date, location, and number of guests.
- When should we book?
- As early as you can. December fills quickly, especially Fridays and Saturdays, and larger parties need lead time for menu planning.
- Can the menu be adapted for allergies or vegetarians?
- Yes. Much of the meze spread is already vegetarian, and we adapt the rest to your party's needs if you tell us when you book.
