Christmas 2025: These restaurants sell take-out feasts
"If you'd rather spend Christmas Day in your den than in a hot kitchen, restaurant chains have solutions for you. Many are offering takeout feasts for as many as a dozen people. They typically include turkey or beef, potatoes, bread and sides. Some feasts also include desserts, frequently pumpkin or apple pies. Most feasts are heat-and-serve, meaning they take two or three hours to reheat but not the kind of effort required for making a traditional Christmas meal from scratch."
"Heat-and-serve meals need to be ordered and picked up in advance. This year, Christmas falls on Thursday, Dec. 25, so most pickup will be on or before Christmas Eve, Wednesday, Dec. 24. The following restaurant chains have announced holiday feasts on their websites, social media pages or in news releases. Prices are drawn from websites, and participation may vary by location. Check with your local restaurants before you commit."
Restaurant chains are offering holiday takeout feasts that serve groups ranging from four to a dozen people. Most feasts are heat-and-serve and typically require two to three hours to reheat. Typical menus include roasted turkey, ham or prime rib, potatoes, vegetables, bread, and desserts such as pumpkin or apple pies. Orders for complete meals, individual meats, sides, or desserts usually require advance preorder and pickup, often on or before Christmas Eve. Participation and prices vary by location. Examples include Claim Jumper platters priced at $155 or $165, Corky's turkey feasts around $134.99, and Cracker Barrel ham or prime rib dinners from $149.99 to $209.99.
