NOTE: Most if not all of the spots listed below are sold out, for the last minute planners, and people who want to get out of the house afterwards check out this list Where to Get a Last Minute Thanksgiving Meal in DC and What Is Open Later in the Day

 

Given that many more people will be sticking around town for Thanksgiving (a recent Twitter poll shows that only roughly half of people who usually leave town for Thankgiving (November 26th) will do so, and one in 7 still haven’t decided), there will certainly be more spots offering Thanksgiving dinners, both to go and dine in, than previous years. Here’s a running of list of to-go only, which is simply a shameless grab for hits until Eater DC and Washingtonian put up their superior lists at which point I will link to them.
