Going out for Thanksgiving Dinner

Years ago, if your house was too small or you couldn't cook or you just didn't want the fuss and mess, but you wanted a traditional Thanksgiving dinner it was easy to pick up the phone and call your favorite restaurant to make a reservation.

But now, it seems that less and less businesses are offering Thanksgiving Dinner. So, where do you go? We did the legwork and called every restaurant in Orange.

The only place we found in town serving a traditional dinner is Bear & Grill on the Boston Post Road.  Dinner will be served between 11:00 am - 7:30 pm.  Owner Nick Jhilal suggests that you make your reservation early to get a seat by the fire. 203-298-0742.

Regular menu items also are available on Thanksgiving Day.

Head chef, Biago Pietrantuono is preparing a roasted turkey feast with all the traditional side dishes that make Thanksgiving a feast including a variety of pies to make it complete.

If you'd like to eat at home, Bear & Grill, is also offering a takeout dinner featuring a whole roasted turkey for anywhere between 6 and 16 people.

Order by Monday, Nov. 22 and pickup on Thanksgiving day, Nov. 25 between 10:30 am and 7:00 pm.
