Fast food restaurants and pizza places are a little different. Most aren’t offering Thanksgiving specials, but many are still open for business. For the most part, McDonald’s, KFC and Burger King will be open on Thanksgiving, but some locations will close for the holidays or have different hours. The same goes for pizza chains like Domino’s, Pizza Hut and Papa John’s.

It’s always best to check with your nearest location to make sure your preferred restaurant is open before heading out on Thanksgiving.
