Dine In or Pick Up, Options Around Chattanooga For Thanksgiving

Sharing is caring!

There are many reasons to consider eating out or picking up for Thanksgiving.  Maybe you don’t like to (or can’t cook), it’s just easier and you want to avoid the messy dishes, or you enjoy taking a day off from cooking. The list of where to Dine In or Pick Up, Options Around Chattanooga For Thanksgiving seems to grow each year.  Especially more catering and pick up options.

I will admit we have eaten out a few times or picked up dinner from Cracker Barrel a couple of years, but I really enjoy cooking.  Plus, if you eat out, there’s no leftovers.  That’s always a favorite part of any holiday dinner.

These are a few places I found that will help you out with your Thanksgiving Dinner.  Some are dine-in, pick up the whole dinner, or maybe pick up just part of the meal – dressing, desserts, or the turkey.  So many options out there.

MAKE SURE TO CHECK DETAILS

Deadlines for ordering and hours for pick up.  If you plan to dine-in, make reservations, some only serve at designated hours and by reservation only.

I’ve tried to include links (In bold red) for places I know of, but you may want to contact them directly for more details, pricing and their offerings.
