Leave Thanksgiving to the experts by picking up dinner — and dessert — from a local restaurant. Here are five places open for holiday pre-orders now.

🍗 The Smoky Mug | Order deadline: Nov. 17 | The Northside restaurant will set you up with a smoked main dish and all the fixings.

🥕 Stella’s Grocery | Order deadline: Nov. 13 | Mains, sides, casseroles, desserts, and more are included on the holiday menu.

🥧 Pies and Cakes Bakery | Order deadline: Nov. 15 or sold out | Order a home-baked pie in varieties like cranberry gingersnap, apple, and sweet potato.

🍦 Scoop | Order deadline: Nov. 15 or sold out | If traditional pie isn’t your thing, try an ice cream pie like chocolate sweet potato or bourbon-caramel apple.

🍷 Union Market | There’s a special event at the market on Wednesday, Nov. 8 to try 40+ wines and put in your order to stock up before Thanksgiving.

Have a pre-order spot you don’t mind sharing? We’ll add it to our list.
