Halloween has passed, Thanksgiving is in the rear view mirror. Now we are on to Christmas. As always, the biggest question is, “What’s going to be open for Christmas?” Or, “Where can I place a pre-order to have my family meal already prepared for me?”
You’ve come to the right place! Here’s this year’s list of restaurants open for Christmas and those taking pre-orders.
This will be a working list, so save think link, check back often to see what updates are made. As the big day looms closer, I know many more restaurants will officially confirm they will be open or available for preorder.
As always, if I missed something, send over an email to wichitabyeb@gmail.com.
