Thanksgiving Dinner in Charleston, WV

Restaurants that Serve Thanksgiving Dinner so You Don't Have To

If you find yourself too busy or stressed to plan a holiday dinner, consider dining out with your family and/or friends this Thanksgiving. If you are in the Charleston, West Virginia area, there are a few restaurants open that will serve either a traditional Thanksgiving dinner or something a little different if you aren't a fan of turkey and stuffing. The following restaurants will be open:

#1: Harding's Family Restaurant-Harding's is a traditional, home-style-cooking restaurant that serves a wide range of meals, and my husband and I have enjoyed their delicious food on more than one occasion. I think they have some of the best breakfast food I've ever eaten (their blueberry pancakes are homemade and mouth-watering), and my husband enjoys the dinner fare. An example of their typical dinner menu includes a roasted turkey offering, that comes with stuffing and cranberry sauce. I can only imagine what additional options they'll have for Thanksgiving dinner! This would be the location of choice if you miss the traditional Thanksgiving dinner you had as a child, and the service is excellent. The prices are reasonable as well.

Harding's opens at 6am and closes at 11pm. It is located at 2772 Pennsylvania Avenue in Charleston, WV. It is very easily accessed on Interstate 79 off of exit 1. If you need to contact Harding's, their phone number is (304) 344-5044.

#2: Cracker Barrel-Cracker Barrel is a chain restaurant, but also offers a customary style Thanksgiving dinner. According to Cracker Barrel's website, they'll offer a meal that includes turkey breast, cornbread dressing topped with turkey gravy, and a sampling of the following: baked sugar-cured ham, sweet potato casserole with caramel pecan topping, cranberry relish, a choice of a vegetable and fresh biscuits or corn muffins, plus Pumpkin Pecan Streusel Pie with real whipped cream and a beverage.
