If spending the day in the kitchen isn’t your idea of a holiday, be thankful you don’t have to prepare your own meal this Thanksgiving. Consider ordering a cooked Thanksgiving dinner from a grocery store or restaurant, if you want some extra time to spend with those close to you.
You can order a full Thanksgiving meal to go, or sometimes just individual dishes, from the stores and restaurants below. In some cases, dinners can be picked up hot and ready to serve, while in other cases they may come cold, needing to be cooked or reheated. Either way, your feast will take way less preparation than if you made it all from scratch.
Some venues let you order Thanksgiving dinner online; for others, you might need to call or place an order in person.
If you’d rather skip cleanup as well, here’s a list of restaurants that are open for dine-in on Thanksgiving. If you decide to eat out, plan to make your reservations quickly, as restaurants often fill up fast.
The prices and offerings may vary by location and don’t include taxes or gratuity. There may also be additional options to serve more or fewer people. If you want to see more options that might be closer to home, you can also check out the local Living on the Cheap network sites.
Plus, if you’re really on a tight budget, check out Ibotta’s FREE Thanksgiving dinner offer (up $20.50) for 2023.
