COLUMBIA, MD — The coronavirus crisis is prompting many Americans to skip large, family-filled holiday celebrations this year. As some choose to alter their Christmas traditions, others might be opting to let someone else take care of the festivities entirely.

Among these is cooking, and if that's the route you're going this Christmas, we certainly wouldn't blame you. Luckily, there are several local and chain restaurants in the area currently planning to be open either Christmas Eve, Christmas Day or both.

In case you need a recommendation of where to eat out on Christmas, Patch compiled a roundup of local and national restaurants slated to be open that day. Let us know in the comments below if we missed your favorite restaurant and when it will be open.

An important note: As the number of daily coronavirus cases continues to surge, states each day are imposing new restrictions on businesses. Business hours can also vary by location. Patch encourages you to call any restaurant on this list in advance to double-check hours on Christmas Day.
