Thanksgiving open restaurants?

What restaurant open for Thanksgiving? Also any have Thanksgiving menus?

Good question. Unfortunately, there is very limited information available about local Port St. Joe restaurants that are *definitely* open on Thanksgiving Day, and very few confirmed menus. Based on recent sources, here’s what’s known—and what to call ahead to confirm.

  • Krazyfish Grille (Port St. Joe): According to a local dining guide, they are open on Thanksgiving from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., offering a “coastal take” on holiday food.
  • Provisions Restaurant: This Port St. Joe spot offers carry-out Thanksgiving meals by advance order.
  • Sunset Coastal Grill: This waterfront restaurant in Port St. Joe is open year-round for lunch and dinner. While there's no specific Thanksgiving menu listed, they typically serve seafood, steak, and daily specials.

Other notes from locals:

  • On TripAdvisor, a user noted that there are very few options open in Port St. Joe on Thanksgiving and suggested traveling ~30 minutes to nearby Apalachicola, where the Owl Café and Franklin Café have hosted holiday meals in previous years.
  • According to Gulf County’s visitor guide, Sisters’ Bistro is a long-standing local restaurant in Port St. Joe. While they don’t explicitly list a Thanksgiving menu online, you might call them to check if they’re open or doing something special for the holiday.

Recommendation: Because information is sparse and menus may change, call the restaurants directly (e.g., Krazyfish, Provisions, Sisters’ Bistro) in the days leading up to Thanksgiving to verify their hours and whether they have a special Thanksgiving menu. If local options don’t pan out, Apalachicola (nearby) may have more reliable open restaurants for the holiday.
