For those planning to travel or simply avoiding the traditional Christmas dinner routine, a selection of fast-food and sit-down restaurants will be available on Christmas Day to satisfy your cravings.

However, it’s important to check the specific hours for your local branch either online or through the restaurant’s app, as they may differ. Among the chains that will welcome guests on Christmas Day are Noodles & Company, KFC, and Panera Bread, although they advise verifying holiday hours with your nearest location.

Meanwhile, several other popular chains will open their doors on Christmas Eve, albeit potentially with shorter operating hours, but will remain closed on Christmas Day. This list includes Chick-fil-A, Culver’s, In-N-Out, Jersey Mike’s, Olive Garden, Raising Cane’s, Ruth’s Chris Steak House, and Taco Bell.

Additionally, some Dairy Queen outlets have announced they will operate on a limited schedule on Christmas Eve and close on Christmas Day. As most locations are independently owned, it’s best to confirm their specific hours online.

Some Dairy Queen locations have also confirmed they will have limited hours on Christmas Eve and close for Christmas Day. Because locations are largely independently owned, hours may vary and can be confirmed online.

Most Chipotle locations will close at 3 p.m. local time on Christmas Eve, while Cracker Barrel stores will close at 2 p.m. Both chains will be closed for Christmas Day.

Many retail stores will also be closed on Christmas Day. If you’re in need of a snack, most gas stations and convenience stores remain open for the holiday.
