November is here, and Thanksgiving is right around the corner (November 28).  While many think of Thanksgiving as a day to dine at home, we understand that not everyone has that option.  It could be for a variety of reasons, but regardless, we're here to help with a list of restaurants open on Thanksgiving in the CSRA. With some help from Good Housekeeping and Webstaurantstore, we found which restaurants will be open!

Holidays can be stressful, especially if you are hosting.  From grocery shopping, preparing all the food, and getting the house ready, it can be overwhelming! So if you want to pass on being stressed out this year, you have some options with restaurants open on Thanksgiving!

Some of these restaurants are offering traditional Thanksgiving-type dinners, and you also have the option of takeout. If you're looking to order a prepared meal ahead, you can check out these options too!

If you know of any additions to add to the list, please email us!

*Please note: Even if a restaurant is on this list, you may want to check ahead.  Not all locations may be participating.*

Applebee's

Select Applebee's locations plan to be open on Thanksgiving.

Buffalo Wild Wings

Many of Buffalo Wild Wings locations will be open, but not all.  Check ahead!

Burger King

Cracker Barrel

It's the busiest day of the year for Cracker Barrel, so if you do head there... you might have to wait!  They will open their regular hours 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. with dine-in meals, and some to-go options too.

Domino's Pizza

Dunkin'

Need your coffee or a quick breakfast on Thanksgiving? Many Dunkin' locations will be open, but hours may vary.

Firehouse Subs

Firehouse Subs locations plan to be open on Thanksgiving, however, hours vary by location, and some may even be closed.  Check ahead!  They will be open regular hours on Black Friday to help fuel your shopping!

Golden Corral

It shows all Golden Corral locations will be open from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Thanksgiving with their Thanksgiving Day Buffet.  But as always, check your local restaurant!

Hardee's

IHOP

If you'd rather have pancakes than turkey, you can get them at IHOP.  They will be open, but check ahead for hours!

McDonald's

Metro Diner

Metro Diner will have you covered for dine-in or to-go orders, with specials and traditional holiday dinner. Most locations will be open until 2:30 p.m. on Thanksgiving.

Papa John's Pizza

Pizza Hut

Popeye's

Most locations of Popeye's will be open on Thanksgiving.  But the chain is also selling whole cajun-flavored turkeys too. The turkeys will be pre-cooked, all you have to do is reheat.  But don't wait, call ahead and place the order before they sell out!

Red Lobster

Ruby Tuesday

Most Ruby Tuesday locations will be open for both dine-in and to-go orders on Thanksgiving Day. Call ahead to check and make reservations if you can!

SONIC

Only some SONIC locations will be open.  They are locally owned, so hours will vary.  You can use the SONIC app to check ahead!

Starbucks

Another location to get your coffee fix before the holiday festivities! Starbucks locations will be open on Thanksgiving, but may have varying and limited hours.

Subway

Some Subway locations will be open on Thanksgiving... so if a turkey sandwich is more your style, you might be able to snag one.  Check with your local store!

Waffle House

You probably already knew this one.  They're open 365 days a year... so if they're closed, we should be worried!
