There are more than a few reasons that folks may want to go out instead of staying in for Thanksgiving dinner. It may be more convenient to skip the cooking, cleaning, and shopping. Some people have smaller families or social circles and may not want to go through the trouble of preparing a full Thanksgiving feast for just a few people. If someone in the group has dietary restrictions or preferences that are difficult to accommodate in a traditional Thanksgiving meal, dining at a restaurant with a diverse menu can be a great solution.

Whatever your reasoning is, we've got you covered with this list of 25 Restaurants across the State of Oregon offering full, sit-down dining experiences or buffet-style Turkey Day spreads to tempt every tastebud.

One major caveat: Most restaurants have limited seating (and food), so make sure to book your reservations right now if a spot tickles your turkey fancy.


By the way, Thanksgiving Day is on November 23 this year. What better way to always know the year's special days than with a 2024 That Oregon Life Yearly Wall Calendar? You'll love it, and your friends will love it as a gift.
