Pre-order your 2023 Thanksgiving meal to go from these Charlotte restaurants
The holidays are on the way, but there’s no need to panic. You can pre-order a Thanksgiving meal from a Charlotte area restaurant or catering service and — boom — dinner is done.
If you want turkey, ham and all the trimmings, we’ve got you covered. And if you prefer to take care of the main attraction yourself and let someone else handle the sides, pies and other treats, we’ve got selections for that, too. Making reservations is also an option.
Take a look at these Thanksgiving 2023 menus from Charlotte’s food and drink providers, and make sure to check back — we’ll keep updating them as more restaurants release their offerings.
