The best Christmas food deliveries for fuss-free festivities
By Pendle Harte & Abbie Schofield
If you don’t fancy slaving away in the kitchen for hours during the holidays, why not get your Christmas dinner delivered? While some companies will deliver all your ingredients (and even tableware), others are offering to pre-cook everything, so all you need to do is reheat and serve for a glorious celebration sans stress. Here are our six of favourite Christmas food delivery services.
