Thanksgiving Dining Tips
Thanksgiving 2026 falls on Thursday, November 26, and the most popular tables and to-go feasts often sell out well before the holiday. Book dine-in reservations as soon as menus are released, and note pre-order deadlines for take-home meals, which typically close several days ahead. Many restaurants and markets close on Thanksgiving Day itself, so plan to pick up to-go orders earlier in the week, and leave time to defrost and reheat. When in doubt, call ahead to confirm holiday hours.
