It’s that time of year again… The Holidays are here!
Whether you’re staying in for a cozy couples meal, showing up to Friends-giving, or traveling to be with family out of town, these restaurants have got you covered without having to lift a finger – well, except to click the “order” button.
Here are seven restaurants serving a vegan Thanksgiving menu from which you can order this holiday season.

Ahh, the dreaded holiday interrogations. “Where do you get your protein?” One less question to worry about when you order from The Herbivorous Butcher.
