Traditionally, Thanksgiving is one of those holidays that everyone spends at home.  Businesses are closed, colleges are closed, schools are closed and almost everyone spends the day with their family or friends.

And, usually, the highlight of the day is a big, home-cooked feast of turkey, stuffing, casseroles, mashed potatoes, gravy, and pumpkin pie.  Usually, but not always.

Some people don't really want to spend a large part of the day slaving over a stove in order to cook the perfect meal.  Instead, they want to actually enjoy themselves.

We get that!  That's why we have put together a list of great restaurants that will be open on Thanksgiving.
