Our (Big) 2025 Columbus Thanksgiving Guide
Where to find the most delicious Thanksgiving food in Central Ohio–from prix-fixe dinners to takeout turkeys.
If you’re trying to figure out where to go for a turkey dinner, want to outsource dessert or just aren’t up for cooking the whole feast from scratch, we have lots of options for you. Every year this list grows with more restaurants, carryout options and pies! This year we’ve been able to add turducken, heritage turkeys and much more.
Below, we’ve created a list of purveyors with Thanksgiving offerings and have organized them into the following categories: dine in, prepared carryout meals, turkeys both cooked and uncooked, and pies and baked goods. Please feel free to add other suggestions in the comments.
