As with everything in 2020, Thanksgiving is looking a little different this year. But that doesn’t mean we can’t eat well or support our local restaurants this October holiday long weekend. From dine-in to takeout and just the fixings to full oven-ready meals, Vancouver restaurants have got you covered for an abundant Thanksgiving feast.

Choose from their a-la-carte offerings, including cranberry sauce, gravy, traditional sides, and desserts. Pre-order by October 7 at Canucks.com/Marketplace.

The Irish Heather

The Irish Heather’s 13-year tradition of packing a communal long table for Thanksgiving dinner obviously won’t be taking place this year, but they will still accept reservations over the long weekend, seating groups of up to six people at safely- distanced tables. They also have Thanksgiving Dinner & Dessert to-go available for order so you can pop everything in the oven and enjoy. Click here to reserve a table or your turkey meal to-go.
