On Thanksgiving Day 2026 in Miami, plenty of restaurants are open for dine-in (most take reservations, and several close by 8 or 9 p.m.). Many takeout feasts must be ordered by November 18 to 24 and picked up on Wednesday, November 25, because several kitchens and bakeries are closed on the day itself. Publix is closed all day Thursday. Whole Foods, The Fresh Market, Milam’s and Sedano’s have historically opened with shortened hours. Today is November 5, so you have about three weeks, and the first order deadlines are less than two weeks away.
Why this guide exists
Every year the same thing happens in Miami. You decide on a Tuesday that you do not want to cook, then find out the pies sold out last week, the neighborhood bakery is closed, and Publix is dark on the one day you need it. Search results mix restaurants that are open with ones that were open three years ago.
This guide is built around what is confirmed for 2026, with a clear line between what we verified and what we are carrying over from last year’s pattern. It focuses on independent and locally operated kitchens, and it flags hotel restaurants and national chains where they are the practical choice. Where a 2026 detail is not published yet, we say so instead of guessing.
How we researched this: We reviewed 2026 Thanksgiving menus and order pages published by Miami restaurants and caterers between late October and November 4, 2026, cross-checked them against two local roundups, and used 2025 local reporting only for grocery, mall and bakery patterns that stores rarely announce early. Prices exclude tax, service charge and delivery unless stated. “++” means tax and service are added. Hours and menus change, so call before you drive.
Order deadlines: the dates that decide your Thanksgiving
If you want takeout, the calendar matters more than the menu. These are the 2026 cutoffs we found, in order.
| Order by | Kitchen | What you are ordering |
|---|---|---|
| Wed, Nov 18 | Eggwhites Catering (North Miami) | Per-guest dinner, 4-guest minimum |
| Thu, Nov 19 | Exquisite Catering (North Miami) | Full dinner for up to 8, or 10 to 14 |
| Thu, Nov 19, noon | Joanna's Marketplace (South Miami) | Whole turkeys, sides, pies; phone orders at 305-661-5777 |
| Fri, Nov 20 | Chef Tasos (delivery across Miami-Dade) | Chef-built dinner for 6, 9 or 12 |
| Sat, Nov 21 | Milam's Market (multiple stores) | Turkey, ham or Cuban roast pork dinners |
| Mon, Nov 23 | Seasons 52 (Coral Gables) | Dinner for 4 to 6; pickup Nov 25 |
| About Nov 23 | Pinecrest Bakery | Cuban-style turkey, pork or ham meals; 3 days' notice |
| Tue, Nov 24 | Naked Farmer (Downtown, Coral Gables) | Feasts for 10 to 100; pickup or delivery Nov 25 |
| Tue, Nov 24, 6 p.m. | Fontainebleau Miami Beach (Vida takeout) | Hotel turkey dinner |
| 48 hours ahead | CalaMillor (Bird Road area) | Spanish-style Thanksgiving feast for 8 |
| Early, no posted cutoff | Smoke & Dough (West Kendall) | Roasted, smoked or mofongo turkey; Thanksgiving Day pickup |
Treat the posted deadline as the last possible day, not the safe day. Pickup windows tend to fill before the cutoff, and small kitchens cap their volume. Placing the order this week is the single easiest way to avoid a last-minute scramble.
Restaurants open on Thanksgiving Day in Miami
Reservations are strongly advised. Several of these set a fixed price, and some take payment up front, so read the cancellation terms.
Independent and locally operated picks
Ariete (Coconut Grove), 3540 Main Hwy. This is the most “Miami” Thanksgiving on the list: a family-style dinner that starts with pumpkin brioche, turkey pot pie pastelitos and turkey-and-gravy croquetas, then moves to roast turkey breast, stuffing, green bean casserole, pommes purée and guava-cranberry sauce. Vegetarian and pescatarian menus are available. 4 to 8 p.m.; $125++ adults, $65 kids.
Christy’s (Coral Gables), 3101 Ponce de Leon Blvd. A long-running Coral Gables steakhouse serving a traditional turkey dinner with chestnut stuffing and mushroom-shallot gravy, plus soup or salad, sweet potato casserole, vegetables and pie. Lamb, ribeye, salmon and filet are priced separately for guests who skip turkey. $70 adults, $45 kids under 12.
Beauty & The Butcher (South Miami and Coral Gables area), 6915 SW 57th Ave. One plate instead of a marathon: smoked turkey with chorizo-apricot dressing, crispy Brussels sprouts, sweet potato-cranberry chow chow and truffle-mushroom gravy. 3 to 8 p.m.; $49.
Glass & Vine (Coconut Grove) and Bayshore Club (Coconut Grove) are both serving Thanksgiving menus on November 26. For more tables in the neighbourhood, see our guide to the best restaurants and bars in Coconut Grove. Bayshore Club’s menu has Peruvian influences. Prices and course details were not published when we checked, so confirm when you book.
Pastis (Wynwood) offers Thanksgiving dine-in and a Thanksgiving Dinner for Two To-Go on November 26. Pricing was not listed in the roundups we reviewed. This is a good option if you want Wynwood, a small group, or a no-cook meal for two.

Budget-friendly and chain options
Cooper’s Hawk (Doral): a complete turkey dinner for $36.99 adults and $15.99 kids 12 and under, served all day next to the regular menu. It is a chain, but it is the lowest-priced complete dinner we found.
Fleming’s (Coral Gables, Brickell): turkey or steak plates from $64, serving from 11 a.m. at Coral Gables.
Maple & Ash (Downtown): open 5 to 10 p.m. with a regular à la carte menu plus holiday specials, including a Black Truffle Thanksgiving plate at $79. If you are driving Downtown, our downtown Miami cheap parking guide can help you plan where to park.
Daniel’s Miami (Coral Gables): opens 3 p.m. with a festive a la carte menu that includes prime rib, turkey and pumpkin cheesecake.
The cheapest line on a Thanksgiving menu is rarely the cheapest meal. Check whether drinks, 18 to 22 percent service and tax are added, and whether kids are priced separately. A $60++ prix fixe can land near $80 per person before drinks.
Will Little Havana restaurants be open on Thanksgiving?
We could not find a published 2026 Thanksgiving schedule for Calle Ocho and Little Havana restaurants, and we will not guess. Many Cuban kitchens treat the holiday as a pork-and-turkey occasion, so call the restaurant or check its Google Business Profile for a holiday-hours listing. For Cuban-style dinners that are confirmed for 2026, Milam’s Cuban pork dinner, Pinecrest Bakery’s family meals, and Smoke & Dough’s mofongo-stuffed turkey.

| Pastis | Wynwood | Thanksgiving Dinner for Two To-Go | Not listed | Nov 26 |
Chains and hotels if you prefer them: The Fresh Market (turkey meals from $79.99; pickup Nov 23 to 26), Seasons 52 (from $240 for 4 to 6; pickup Nov 25), Fleming’s (bundles for 6 from $135 for sides to $265 for a full spread), and Fontainebleau Miami Beach ($375, order by Nov 24, 6 p.m.). Publix takes order-ahead turkey and ham dinners but is closed on Thanksgiving Day, so pickup must happen by Wednesday.
Expert tip (food safety): Chilled catering needs a clean, cold ride home. Keep perishable food refrigerated, never leave it out more than two hours (one hour above 90°F, which matters in a Miami parked car), and reheat to 165°F, per USDA guidance. If you pick up Wednesday, put the trays in the fridge the moment you get home.
Order one “centerpiece” from a local kitchen and build around it. A mofongo-stuffed turkey or a Cuban pork dinner plus bakery bread and a store-bought pie costs less than a full catering package and still feels special.
Thanksgiving bakeries and pies in Miami
As of November 5, most Miami bakeries had not published 2026 Thanksgiving pie menus that we could verify. Rather than invent prices, we list what is confirmed for 2026, then bakeries with a documented Thanksgiving track record, so you know whom to contact first.
Confirmed for 2026
• CalaMillor (Spanish restaurant and artisan bakery): pumpkin pie (tarta de calabaza) or pecan pie comes with the $420 feast for 8. Sides and pies are also sold separately; order 48 hours ahead.
• Pinecrest Bakery (Cuban bakery): family meals for 15 or 25 with Cuban-style turkey, pork or ham; order 3 days ahead.
• Joanna’s Marketplace (South Miami): homemade pies at $22 to $40; order by Nov 19, noon.
• Milam’s Market: an 8-inch pie is included in its turkey dinners.
Bakeries with a Thanksgiving track record (confirm 2026 details first)
| Bakery | Neighborhood | What previous years showed |
|---|---|---|
| Fireman Derek's Bake Shop | Wynwood, Coconut Grove, Fort Lauderdale | Online pre-orders with a chosen pickup time; locations were closed on Thanksgiving Day in past years, with limited walk-in pies the day before |
| Zak the Baker | Wynwood | Holiday pies (apple and chocolate caramel were a past Thanksgiving pairing); has opened for Thanksgiving-morning pie pickup in past years |
| Bachour | Coral Gables | 2025: pre-orders closed the day before Thanksgiving, with a morning-to-afternoon pickup on Thanksgiving Day; feasts for 2, 4 or 6 priced $80, $140 and $180 |
| Madruga Bakery | Coral Gables | A rustic bakery with a history of Thanksgiving pies and online orders |
| Chug's Diner | Coconut Grove | Classic pies to go with a pickup deadline before the holiday |
| Toothfairy Bakery | Miami Beach | Whimsical pies and cheesecakes by pre-order |
| Ana Cacao | Miami Shores | Plant-based, gluten-free pumpkin-spice pecan tart |
| Bunnie Cakes | Miami | Vegan and gluten-free pies and cupcakes by pre-order |
Cuban bakeries for pastelitos and bread
For Friday-morning pastelitos or Cuban bread to build medianoche sandwiches from your leftovers, local bakeries such as Pastelmania (2015 W Flagler St, Little Havana; 305-541-3675) and Miami Bakery (1990 NW 22nd Ave, Allapattah; 305-638-4100) are the traditional stops. We could not confirm their Thanksgiving Day hours, so call ahead. Classic pastelito flavors are guava, guava and cheese, cream cheese, coconut, ham and beef.
Ask three questions when you call a bakery: Is there a pre-order deadline? What are the pickup hours on Wednesday and Thursday? Do you close Thursday? Closed-on-Thursday bakeries often have the best pies, which is why Wednesday pickup is worth planning around.
What is open and closed in Miami on Thanksgiving Day: groceries, malls and services
Important: Most stores publish holiday hours only days before Thanksgiving. Except where we say “2026,” the table below reflects 2025 coverage and is a pattern, not a promise. Check your store’s page on Tuesday, November 24.
| Store | Thanksgiving pattern | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Publix | Closed (confirmed for 2026) | Order-ahead dinners must be picked up by Wednesday |
| Whole Foods Market (including Miami Beach and Brickell) | Open with shortened hours; 2025 reports listed about 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. | Hours vary by store, and Wednesday closing is earlier than normal; check your location |
| The Fresh Market | Open about 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. in 2025 | Pre-ordered meals can be picked up Nov 23 to 26 in 2026 |
| Milam's Market | Open about 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. in 2025 | Cuban pork dinner pickup Nov 24 to 26 in 2026 |
| Sedano's | Open until about 6 p.m. in 2025 | Popular last-minute stop for Cuban bread |
| Presidente, Bravo, Price Choice | Open in 2025; hours vary | Call your nearest store |
| Trader Joe's, Aldi | Closed in 2025 | |
| Winn-Dixie, Target, Walmart, Costco, Sam's Club, BJ's | Listed closed in 2025 coverage | Reports have conflicted across past years, so verify |
| CVS | Most stores open regular hours in 2025; pharmacy hours may differ | Navarro pharmacies were reported closed |
| Malls | Miami International Mall was closed in 2025; open-air centers vary by store | Mall hours change again on Black Friday |
Trash and recycling: Miami-Dade reported normal pickup on both Thanksgiving Day and Friday in 2025, but confirm with your city.
Airport and attractions: We could not verify 2026 Thanksgiving hours for Zoo Miami, Dolphin Mall, Miami-Dade College or the City of South Miami, so check each site directly. Airports run on Thanksgiving, but some concessions reduce hours, so check your flight and the terminal’s dining listings.
Build a “Wednesday list.” Buy last-minute items, ice, drinks and bread by Wednesday evening. If you forget something Thursday, 7-Eleven (many stores are 24 hours), Sedano’s and Whole Foods are your best bets, but keep your expectations low for closing time.
A Miami Thanksgiving, Cuban style
Miami does Thanksgiving differently, and that difference is a reason to eat local this year. In many Cuban and Latin households here, the table carries the turkey alongside a slow-roasted pork (lechón asado or pernil), marinated overnight in mojo criollo, a blend of garlic, sour orange, oregano and cumin. Rice and black beans and yuca with mojo fill out the plate, and leftovers turn into medianoche sandwiches on Cuban bread.
For many families, Thanksgiving is also a dress rehearsal for Nochebuena (Christmas Eve), when the pork goes whole. The scale is real: according to an Axios Miami report, one local Cuban restaurant group says it serves up to 20,000 pounds of lechón during the holiday season.
Local kitchens have caught on. Smoke & Dough stuffs a turkey with mofongo and sells hallacas and coquito, Ariete turns turkey into croquetas and pastelitos, and Milam’s sells a Cuban roast pork dinner that feeds 12 to 14 for $79.99. If you want an authentic Miami table, mix one American centerpiece with one Cuban one. If you are in West Kendall, where Smoke & Dough is based, our guide on where to eat in Kendall lists more local kitchens.

Visiting for the holiday? Thanksgiving en Miami: Book restaurants early, remember that rideshare prices rise at peak hours, and plan on Friday as your open-shops day. If you are staying near Brickell, our guides to things to do in Brickell and the best shopping places in Brickell cover what is nearby.
Pair a morning turkey trot with a 1 p.m. reservation. Race registrations include a fee, and kids’ pricing differs at many restaurants, so lock in both before the week of the holiday.

Expert tips: ten rules for a stress-free Thanksgiving in Miami
1. Book this week. Restaurant reservations and takeout slots disappear in mid-November.
2. Call to confirm hours. Restaurants change holiday plans, and Google listings lag.
3. Know the price. Look for “++” and service charges of 18 to 22 percent.
4. Prepaid means non-refundable in practice. Read cancellation terms before you pay.
5. Check age policies. Some restaurants limit children; others price kids at half or free.
6. Plan Wednesday pickup. Some bakeries close Thursday, and Publix is closed.
7. Order a centerpiece, not everything. One strong main plus your own sides is cheaper.
8. Mind the car. In Miami’s heat, perishable food should not sit in a parked car.
9. Reheat to 165°F. Use a thermometer for turkey, stuffing and gravy.
10. Have a Plan B. Know one chain restaurant or hotel buffet near you in case plans change.
