Where to Order Thanksgiving Takeout From Austin Restaurants

Thanksgiving is less than a month away, and already restaurants in the Austin area — which occupies the ancestral lands of the Coahuiltecan, Comanche, Jumano, Tonkawa, and Lipan Apache tribes — are here to make the holiday easy for everyone looking to celebrate at home through takeout meals and dishes. This is especially considering there’s a turkey shortage, among other foods and ingredients. This way, everyone can forgo the hassle of cooking for the food-centric holiday and stay within the familiar comforts of home for a safe, stress-free day for the long weekend starting on Thursday, November 24 through Sunday, November 27.

Here is Eater’s guide to the best restaurants offering preorders for takeout Thanksgiving dinners and desserts, including brined turkeys from Cherrywood butcher shop/restaurant Dai Due, mezcal-glazed hams from East Austin butcher shop/restaurant & Time, and so many rolls and desserts.

Everything below is listed alphabetically and is available for pickups (delivery services are noted where offered). There’s also Eater Austin’s Thanksgiving pie guide, and the dine-in meals map.
