A Christmas Spectacle Only Mr. Miyagi Could Create
Mr. Miyagi is open, active and ready to deliver one of Melbourne’s most anticipated festive events. The Windsor favourite is bringing back its Santas Eat Free celebration on Wednesday, 10th December 2025, and excitement is already spreading through Chapel Street.
The restaurant has always stood out for its playful energy. As a result, this annual event has become one of the most talked-about Christmas moments in the city. Guests can expect a lively scene filled with red suits, white beards and the unmistakable buzz that only a Mr. Miyagi event can generate.
How the Event Works and Why Melbourne Loves It
The concept is simple. Anyone who books a Santa slot between 5.00pm and 6.00pm and arrives in a full Santa outfit receives a Feed Me menu and drink package worth one hundred and twenty dollars. Because the value is so strong and the experience so entertaining, bookings disappear almost instantly.
Last year, the event sold out in under thirty minutes. This year, the team expects even higher demand. Moreover, diners can look forward to cult favourites such as the sashimi tacos, iconic fried chicken and the famous Frosé that continues to dominate Melbourne’s summer drink scene. As the room fills with Santas, the atmosphere becomes fun, unpredictable and incredibly photogenic.
Why Mr. Miyagi Keeps Bringing the Event Back
Although the concept is lighthearted, the motivation behind it is thoughtful. With cost-of-living pressures rising and December workloads increasing, the team wanted to create a moment of pure joy. In addition, they wanted people to relax without worrying about the price of a night out.
Kristian Klein, Founder of Mr. Miyagi, says, “December can get hectic, and we know everyone’s feeling the pinch. Santa’s Eat Free is our way of spreading joy and permitting people to do something delightfully ridiculous. The more Santas, the better!”
This clear message continues to resonate with diners across Melbourne. The event now represents a break from the demands of the season and a chance to enjoy something bold and carefree.
Extra Festive Offers for December
Even if guests miss out on a Santa booking, the restaurant has prepared additional experiences that keep the festive spirit alive all month long. These inclusions ensure Mr. Miyagi remains a top choice for Christmas catch-ups across the city.
December highlights
- A two-hour drinks package for $35 per person, featuring bottomless wines, Sapporo and signature cocktails including Frosé.
- Expanded group booking options to support Friendmas dinners, work breakups and end-of-year gatherings.
- Christmas Eve opening hours for guests who want a special meal without hosting at home.
Because these options cater to different group sizes and budgets, diners can easily find a reason to celebrate at Mr. Miyagi throughout December.
A Visually Iconic Night That Always Delivers
When the doors open at night, the transformation is instant. Dozens of Santas fill the dining room, creating a scene that feels both surreal and joyful. Meanwhile cameras flash, guests cheer, and the venue becomes one of the most photographed places in Melbourne for a night.
In addition, the combination of great food and theatrical energy has turned Santas Eat Free into one of the strongest annual hospitality activations in Australia. Each year it grows, evolves and strengthens the restaurant’s cultural impact on the city.
