Easter is a wonderful opportunity to gather with your family and enjoy a special holiday meal. But not everyone wants to spend the day in the kitchen preparing Easter brunch
or glazing a ham—and that's completely okay! Fortunately, there are plenty of restaurants open on Easter, ready to serve you and your loved ones a festive feast.
If you don't have the energy to make a big Easter dinner or don't feel like searching for missing ingredients at the stores open on Easter, you can still enjoy a memorable holiday meal. Below is a list of restaurants open on Easter in 2025, offering everything from appetizers to side dishes to dessert, and, of course, glazed ham. Many options you'll find here have nationwide locations, curbside pickup, and even delivery options. So, you don't even have to pause your egg hunt to go pickup your order! Just scroll down to peruse the list of restaurants open this Easter Sunday, so you can enjoy a delightful spread that's sure to satisfy everyone's holiday cravings.
