This year is a different one for seniors or people that can't get out or if family can't visit during the Covid lockdown. Does anyone know of any restaurants that may be willing to deliver or if one can pick up in advance if home cooking isn't an option for either Christmas Eve or Christmas day?  
 
I know people might comment that this place or that place might be open, but it would be nice for specific restaurants or people in the know to say they will definitely take orders for safe pickup evening of December 24th or hours on the 25th of December.  
 
The question usually crops up here at the last minute, so would be nice if people can weigh in if they can to pre-order now for a meal and know for a fact the restaurant will accommodate. Would like to support local restaurants during this time.  
 
Thanks in advance.

We will be open until 7pm on Christmas Eve, you can certainly phone ahead and pre-order, delivery is available through Skip The Dishes.  
 
Unfortunately we will be closed on Christmas Day.

Good, thanks! Tasty fried chicken/ potato wedges enjoyed there previously by our family member and def could easily be re-heated next (Christmas) day (oven for keeping crispy) Good idea for our family member. Nice, cold salad options too with coleslaw, macaroni and potato salad? Thanks for this.

Benny’s Restaurant is advertising turkey dinner with all the trimmings for Christmas Day - must order in advance. Sorry, can’t recall the deadline to order so call them to confirm.

Has a turkey dinner on the 25th, available between 2 and 4 pm only. You must pre order by the 22nd. Its $20 with stuffing, mashed, gravy, veg, and perogies.

Thanks for options as far. Everyone has different preferences and budgets. Appreciate all suggestions. I hope this also benefits others knowing which restaurants will be accommodating for people confined to their homes this Covid season if they're unable to prepare a satisfying meal themselves. Good gift idea too for many who are shut-ins at this time of year.  
 
Shout out to local places that are taking the time to do this.
