Nothing says Christmas quite like the first festive sandwich of the season — and this year, PAUL Bakery is delivering two delicious reasons to celebrate your lunch break. The much-loved French bakery has unveiled its 2025 festive sandwich line-up, blending classic Gallic flair with British Christmas comfort food in every bite.
Freshly prepared in-house each morning, these sandwiches are a love letter to the season — packed with premium ingredients, handcrafted bread, and a good dose of Christmas cheer. Available across PAUL stores in London, Reading and Oxford from 17th November to 31st December, this year’s line-up is all about indulgence done right.
The Food
The Turkey & Bacon Christmas Club (£6.50)
A festive favourite reimagined with a French twist, PAUL’s Turkey & Bacon Christmas Club is everything you want in a lunch during Christmas time. Think layers of tender roast turkey and crispy bacon, lifted with sweet cranberry sauce and a hint of horseradish mayo for warmth. It’s all tucked into an artisan sage and onion baguette, freshly baked each morning, and topped with a satisfying crunch of shredded Brussels sprouts, red cabbage, and savoury stuffing. In short: Christmas dinner, baguette-style.
The Brie & Cranberry Baguette (v) (£6.45)
Vegetarians, rejoice. The Brie & Cranberry Baguette is a creamy, crunchy, flavour-packed masterpiece that proves festive sandwiches don’t need meat to shine. Slices of creamy French Brie are layered with vegetarian stuffing, grilled carrots, red cabbage, and Brussels sprouts, all tied together with tangy horseradish mayo and a dollop of sweet cranberry sauce. It’s rich, balanced and unapologetically festive.
The Details
Both sandwiches are available to grab on the go, making them perfect for lunchtimes in the office, post-shopping pick-me-ups, or cosy park picnics with a cup of hot chocolate in hand.
For those planning Christmas meetings or festive gatherings, PAUL’s sandwiches can also be ordered as part of their impressive platters, ideal for sharing with colleagues or friends (and guaranteed to earn you the title of “office hero”).
