Thanksgiving Restaurant Open

The Thanksgiving holiday begins the busiest travel season in the United States. Millions of people will flock in and out of airports and train stations and fill the highways with vehicles. Some take long trips and others short, but it’s tradition to be with family during the holidays, and we’ll do whatever it takes to get there. Traveling on an actual holiday can bring up challenges because many establishments close. But, thankfully, some restaurants will be open on Thanksgiving, so weary travelers can plan for a quick bite to eat.

Denny’s-Denny’s is a popular spot on the holidays because they typically stay open most days. They will be open on Thanksgiving during regular hours and will serve a turkey meal.

Dunkin’-Donuts and coffee will be available to enjoy while watching the parade and throughout the day. Hours vary by location, so check the website or mobile App.

IHOP—The breakfast chain is another that rarely closes. Most IHOP restaurants will be open on Thanksgiving and ready to serve a full menu.

Waffle House-We can always count on the Waffle House, whether it’s the middle of the night or Thanksgiving day. Waffles will be hot and sticky, and coffee will be fresh.
