You forgot to defrost the turkey: A list of local restaurants serving Thanksgiving dinner if you need it
THE WOODLANDS, TX – Every year, it seems the holidays creep up on us like a stealth locomotive, with no warning until it slams into you. Thanksgiving is a particular day fraught with possibilities of things going wrong – you burnt the turkey, your gas stove went kablooey, you’re dining solo or in a small group this year that doesn’t need a 15-lb turkey… it’s the perfect time to let you know that The Woodlands has some restaurants open on Thanksgiving Day ready to serve you if you for some reason can’t serve yourself.
As you peruse the list below, please note that many – if not all – of these restaurants will be slammed and packed, and some might require reservations if they’re not already completely booked, so act soon if you need to. Just click on the links to get the full details!
