These restaurants will be open Christmas Eve and Christmas Day
Millions of Americans will be getting together with family and friends this week to spend Christmas together. That usually means hours of prep and cook time for the wonderful holiday feast.
Unfortunately, Christmas lands on a Wednesday this year. If you only get Christmas day off from work, you might decide to save some time and not whip up such a spectacular meal. Tap or click here for meal planning apps.
We have some good news. There are more options than playing the role of an amateur chef this year. A handful of restaurants will be open on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.
Restaurants open Christmas Day
Most restaurants will be observing Christmas Day and giving employees time off; however, there are some wonderful choices that will be open that day.
Some of them will even offer special holiday menus. Make sure to check with your local restaurants ahead of time to verify their hours and see if you need a reservation.

Boston Market
Boston Market serves up Christmas dinner-type meals year-round, so it makes sense you’d want to have your meal there. If you want the big day to feel more like a traditional Christmas, order your meal ahead of time from Boston Market and simply pick it up to go and enjoy at home.
Buca di Beppo
If you want to change things up this year, why not go for an Italian-style Christmas meal? Buca di Beppo opens at 11 a.m. Christmas Day and you can make reservations now.
Buffalo Wild Wings
Speaking of non-traditional, how about some wings for Christmas? Of course, Buffalo Wild Wings does have more options on its menu than wings, but the tasty bits are what it’s most famous for.
