Here are a few of our favorite picks in the Circle City so you don’t go cold turkey:

  • Rick’s Café Boatyard | Dine-in | Grab a table with a view of Eagle Creek Reservoir for a classic meal from the turkey all the way to the pumpkin pie.
  • Weber Grill Restaurant | Dine-in | Celebrate with a traditional three-course meal.
  • Hollyhock Hill | Carry-out | This north side treasure known for its fried chicken is all booked for Thanksgiving, but it’s still accepting take-out orders until Mon., Nov. 21.
  • Cooper’s Hawk | Dine-in/Carry-out | Dine in for a traditional Thanksgiving dinner or pre-order a heat-and-serve meal kit and pick it up on Tuesday, Nov. 22 or Wednesday, Nov. 23.
