Where to Get Your Turkey Dinner This Thanksgiving: A Guide to Restaurants and Grocery Stores

Thanksgiving is a time for family, friends, and, of course, delicious food. But who has the time or energy to cook a full Thanksgiving feast from scratch? Luckily, there are plenty of restaurants and grocery stores that offer pre-cooked Thanksgiving dinners to-go, so you can focus on enjoying the holiday with your loved ones.

Restaurants:

• Bob Evans: This family-friendly restaurant offers several Farmhouse Feasts that can serve up to 10 people. Everything is packed cold, so you just have to heat and serve.

• Bravo! Italian Kitchen: This restaurant offers family-style Thanksgiving feasts (hot or cold) that include sliced white meat turkey, homestyle gravy, roasted garlic mashed potatoes, Italian Sausage Stuffing, pumpkin pie, and other add-ons.
