Turkey isn’t for everyone — and corporate America knows this well.
Therefore, grabbing a coffee, fast food, last-second groceries or a sit-down meal throughout the country on Thanksgiving won’t be hard.
Although government-run services like the post office will be closed and garbage pickup in NYC will be on hold 24 hours after Turkey Day — as will direct deposit services for the bank holiday — here is a look at chain stores and restaurants open Thursday.
Of course, checking with local branches about individual hours is best.
