15 Michigan Restaurants Open On Christmas Day

Christmas Day Calls For Good Food. Here’s a List of Michigan Restaurants That Will Be Open

Don’t feel like cooking on Christmas Day? That’s okay, we found fifteen Michigan restaurants that will be open on the holiday. Some restaurants understand that Christmas can be their busiest time of the year, so they often have Open and set shifts to cover the holiday. Some offer normal business hours, and their regular menu and others offer special holiday menus at designated reservation times to make your Christmas dinner extra-special. Please remember, local holiday hours may vary by location and brand, so be sure to check with your favorite restaurant before making family plans.

15 Restaurants Open On Christmas Day


1. Boston Market
Holidays are Boston Market’s specialty, and this year they’re making it even easier for you to get a great meal. While you can dine at select participating locations, Boston Market also has order pickups and meal deliveries available. Choose from their massive la carte menu, or opt for your choice of prime rib, turkey or ham. Plus, if you place your order early enough, they’ll even deliver to your house. Talk about a Christmas miracle.

2. Buffalo Wild Wings
Start a new holiday tradition of devouring plates of flavor-packed buffalo wings! The wild restaurant will be open on Christmas Day this year, but hours may vary by location. So be sure to check with your local restaurant first. Enjoy!

3. Cracker Barrel
Celebrate Christmas with Cracker Barrel’s heat-and-serve meals. You can order online and pick up a day or two before Christmas Day, or their food can be ready in less than three hours if you call ahead with your order. Plus, holiday meals come complete with ham, delicious sides and your choice of pie. Yummy!

4. Denny’s
Want breakfast for Christmas dinner this year? Go crazy with some pumpkin spice pancakes! Denny’s want you to enjoy a stress-free meal with family and friends this holiday season. Choose from multiple special options, such as their turkey and dressing dinner pack, cinnamon roll pancake breakfast and pumpkin or pecan pies.

5. IHOP – Let early morning pancakes give you the energy to get through the day! Luckily, it’s easy to grab your fix before heading over to Grandma’s house because IHOP restaurants are open Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. But hours may vary by restaurant location, so check with your local store first.

6. Bucca Di Beppo – Buca di Beppo will be open for Christmas, so you can skip the ham and indulge with some pasta instead (but call ahead because hours vary by location). The restaurant is also preparing family meals (available for online order December 23-25) for takeaway in case you’d rather pair your baked ziti with a cozy blanket and a holiday movie.

7. McDonald’s – Call ahead to confirm the holiday hours of your local McDonald’s; 95 percent of the fast-food restaurants are independently owned and operated, so the hours will vary. “Only a handful of McDonald’s restaurants open on Christmas Day,” the website notes.

8. Dunkin’ Donuts – You’ll be the star of Christmas morning if you treat everyone to a box full of piping hot doughnuts for breakfast! Store hours vary by location, so check with your local Dunkin’ Donuts before heading out.

9. Starbucks – Stay caffeinated on Christmas Day with a latte or Americano from your favorite coffee chain: Starbucks! The popular restaurant will be open all day long. To make it even better, Starbucks will likely have some sort of sale during the holidays, whether it’s BOGO drinks or limited-edition Frappuccinos. Java good time!

10. Waffle House – Not surprising from a restaurant that’s known for never closing, Waffle House will be open 24/7 on Christmas Day. So stop by anytime you like for your breakfast-food fix. Don’t forget to pour on lots of syrup!
