Where to Order Dairy-Free Thanksgiving Dinner (Stores & Restaurants)
Our list starts with the nationwide options, then the regional places, followed by the local restaurants and shops. The local spots are roughly listed from the West to East Coast. Please comment if you know of other places to order dairy-free Thanksgiving dinner! We will update this list annually and as we learn of more options.
Whole Foods – Nationwide
This year, they are offering a plant-based meal for two, complete with roasted vegetables, pumpkin curry soup, and more. They don’t have a pre-set dairy-free feast, but it’s easy to build your own! For mains, they have dairy-free turkeys, ham, lamb, and more available. Their sides are loaded with vegan options. But they aren’t offering dairy-free or vegan pie this year, so you will need to look for that in the frozen section.
Sprouts – Nationwide
Their Plant-Based Meal is a little non-conventional this year, but you can purchase sides and mains separately, which include vegan green bean casserole, cornbread stuffing, sweet potato casserole, cranberry sauce, and sourdough bread. If you’re feeding non-vegans, you can order turkey, hams, and roasts separately. Depending on your location, they might be able to customize a full meal to be dairy-free with the plant-based sides and a meaty entrée.
Honey Baked Ham – Nationwide
Their classic Thanksgiving sides mostly contain dairy. But you can order your main from this chain, and also use our dairy-free guide to get breads, salads, and sauces.
