15 Stamford Christmas 2026: S$48++ Lunch or Buffet?

7 November 2026

15 Stamford at The Capitol Kempinski has a three-course festive lunch at S$48++ from 9 November 2026 to 1 January 2027, excluding Christmas Day. Its regular festive set dinners and Christmas buffets are separate offers with different dates, prices and drinks options.

The set lunch is the simplest way to try the festive menu

The restaurant’s 2026 programme lists lunch noon–2.30 pm, with a S$10++ wine add-on. Advertised lunch dishes include miso chestnut velouté and Greenland halibut. The published exclusion is 25 December, when the Christmas brunch programme takes over.

For a weekday work meal, the set format gives you a more predictable starting budget than a buffet. Two adults choosing the base lunch have a S$96 subtotal before charges; adding the listed wine for both increases that to S$116 before charges.

Ask what the current course choices are, whether any carry a supplement and how long the sitting is expected to take. Our Christmas set-menu roundup is useful if you are comparing the lunch with a dinner elsewhere rather than committing to a hotel buffet.

Four courses or five at dinner?

Regular festive set dinner runs 6 pm–10.30 pm, excluding 24, 25 and 31 December. The four-course menu is S$118++, with a S$58++ wine pairing; five courses cost S$128++, with a S$68++ pairing.

The food-only difference between four and five courses is S$10++ per person. With each menu’s listed pairing, the base totals become S$176++ and S$196++ respectively. That S$20 difference is worth assessing by the additional course and wine rather than course count alone.

If one person avoids an ingredient, ask about an alternative before paying. A five-course meal is not automatically suitable for a guest who cannot eat one of the central dishes. Likewise, establish whether different diners can choose different course counts, particularly if the whole table needs to finish together.

Christmas Day brunch and Christmas dinners

The 25 December brunch is 12.30 pm–3.30 pm. Dinner buffets on 24 and 25 December run 6 pm–10 pm. Both list S$168++ per adult and S$69++ per child, with S$208++ and S$228++ adult beverage-package tiers. The hotel describes live music and a Santa visit for the Christmas dinner buffets.

Choose brunch if you want the main celebration in daylight and dinner if you prefer to build an evening around it. Do not read the regular set-dinner price as a Christmas Eve offer: those dates are explicitly excluded from that menu.

The reviewed page does not define the child age band. Ask about ages, under-age dining charges and high chairs rather than adopting another hotel’s policy. If the Santa appearance is important, check its timing separately; an advertised appearance is not a guaranteed individual interaction.

What to check in the booking confirmation

Keep four details together: the date, the named menu, the chosen drinks package and the total after service charge and GST. For a group booking, have the restaurant quote the full party rather than having each person estimate from a different price line.

Some search previews still mention an early-bird deadline before 30 October. That deadline has already passed as of this guide’s 7 November check, so it should not be used to calculate a new reservation. Use only the offer actually presented for your date.

Read payment and cancellation terms before finalising. If you are comparing this with another Christmas outing, prioritise a timing your group can keep. A good set lunch can be a better fit than a longer buffet when people have work, travel or family visits later that day.

· Confirm the child age band directly; it is not specified on the reviewed festive page.

FAQs

Does the S$48++ lunch run on Christmas Day?

No. The published festive set-lunch exclusion is 25 December 2026.

Are the Christmas dinners set menus?

The 24 and 25 December evening programme is a separately priced buffet.

Can I still use the October early-bird offer?

Do not assume so. An offer requiring booking before 30 October has passed; check current reservation terms.
