Don’t feel like cooking on Thanksgiving? These Beaufort Co. spots are offering take out

It’s no secret that Thanksgiving will look different this year, with many people unable to travel due to COVID-19 concerns. For many families, the dinner table will be a bit emptier.

So it makes sense that more people plan to order the traditionally home-cooked meal via take out this year rather than cook for a small group. A survey by MySubscriptionAddiction indicates 47% of South Carolina families plan to order take out this Turkey Day.

Here are some local options if you want take-out on Nov. 26. To see restaurants serving dine-in feasts on Thanksgiving, click here.
