These Chain Restaurants Are Open on Easter

Hop on over to one of these restaurants for your Easter dinner.

After the Easter bunny visits your house and your egg hunt is over, what’s your plan for the meal? Maybe you’re cooking your famous brunch and Easter ham or gorging yourself on so many chocolate eggs that you don’t even want to eat. Or maybe you just want to have someone else do the cooking for you—we get it, holiday cooking is stressful.

If you want to have a lowkey Easter dinner at your favorite restaurant or even have the restaurant deliver food to you, there are plenty of options for Easter Sunday meals. Because only certain religions celebrate Easter on April 9, most chain restaurants remain open to accommodate both the people who don’t celebrate the holiday and those who want to grab an easy holiday bite.

Whether you want to indulge in your morning coffee or are looking for a full-blown Easter ham with all the fix-ins, these are the restaurants that are open on Easter Sunday.
