Many Erie restaurants are open on Christmas Eve, but closed on December 25. Here's a list
Erie's restaurants will be hopping at least until mid-afternoon on Christmas Eve this year. But one by one, starting about 2 p.m., those neon "open" lights will blink off. After 6 p.m., it'll be a silent night indeed.
And don't plan on eating out on Christmas Day, unless you're going to try Annapurna Kitchen or the Golden Wok. We couldn't find other restaurants that are open on Dec. 25. And we really looked. If you know of a restaurant we missed, let us know by calling 814-969-2208 or sending email to jennie.geisler@timesnews.com.
