If making your own Thanksgiving meal or getting an invite is not on the horizon this year, you may want to plan ahead. In a survey of 23 local restaurants and pizza eateries, three indicated they will be open for business.
McDonalds (601 S. Main St.) indicated a shortened schedule. Opening at 5 a.m. and closing at 11 a.m., they will then reopen at 4 p.m.
A spokesperson at Dairy Queen (604 S. Main St.) said, “we are always open.”
The only buffet in the area found to be open on Thanksgiving will be at Mamma Rosa’s. They will be open from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Jay C Food Stores may have their carry-out Thanksgiving meals this year.
Other suggestions would be to go to Joe Hubers Family Farm and Restaurant, 2421 Engle Road, Starlight, or drive to Clarksville and visit Bob Evans and Golden Corral. Note: Huber's Orchard and Winery,19816 Huber Rd., Borden, is always closed for Thanksgiving.
In addition to restaurants, free meals for the needy will be served November 9 at the First Baptist Church, located at 200 E. Walnut St., from 12 p.m. to 2 p.m.
Lastly, the Warming Station, located at 110 N. High St., will be hosting a Thanksgiving meal on November 25 from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m.
