Some families are scaling back on the size of their in-person celebration and opting for getting takeout instead of preparing a feast.

Many chain and local restaurants are open on Thanksgiving for those who want to spend time with loved ones instead of spending time in the kitchen and they are offering ready-to-eat meals.

Below is a list of restaurants that have special takeout menus for the holiday.

Note: Not every restaurant in a chain may be honoring the deals, so be sure to check with local restaurants to confirm which deals are available before you go. Most offers can’t be used with any other discount or coupons. Prices may vary with location.
