Anyone else feel like this year has just flown by?

We can hear the Scrooge's out there now "talking about Christmas already? You must be joking!" Well, like it or not the countdown has begun and you'd want to get your skates on (no pun intended!)

The Christmas prep is officially in full swing.

With recent news that the lights on Grafton Street are already up, it's no surprise we're starting to hear the odd Luas conversations around one of our favourite festive pastimes - the Christmas night out. But with so many options, it can be a pain in the neck to choose one spot, especially somewhere that will keep everyone happy. (We all have that one What's App group where no one can agree.) Enter us - that's right, we've the perfect spot for you and your mates. TGI Friday's has a deadly selection of food on their Christmas menu and the 12 Cocktails of Christmas menu boasts some delish tipples, including a gingerbread mojito- where can we sign up?

So what can you expect from a night in TGI Friday's?

Other than the epic cocktail list, TGI's will put on a spread that will rival your Aunt's famous parties back in the day - we're talking burgers (we recommend their Wingman Burger - delish) ribs, steaks and sizzling fajitas to name but a few. There really is something for everyone. If you're like us - and every person we know - you'll want to take a peek at the menu before going. Try not to drool too much.

So there you have it. The perfect spot to have a laugh and tasty food with your mates this Christmas. We know it's mad early but all this talk of Christmas has sparked up a warm fuzzy feeling in our bellies. Nollaig Shona! For more info on TGI Friday's and to book your Christmas night out, head here.
