Default Christmas restaurants

Perkins is open. There are probably a few more open, I think Toojays may also be open.

While we celebrate Hanukkah and Christmas, it has always been tradition for our children to go out for Chinese. The three of them could have conversations away from the household and the hustle and bustle. Enjoy a few hours and eat as much Chinese as possible.

Tradition started when the oldest was 16, 10, 4. This year they are all going to a Chinese restaurant in different states. Zoom will be involved in the lunches, pretty sure the conversation will be the same and different this year. All in medical fields so won’t travel. One will eat at the same Chinese restaurant since 1985.
Ages this year 51, 45, 39.

Go to The Villages Gourmet Club search page... Click Here.

Scroll down to selection 4a. Select Special Interest.

Select Open on Christmas Day from the drop-down.

Click on the green Search button at the bottom of the page.

View the results and verify by calling the restaurant that interests you.

We’ve lived here for fifteen years and have found that NOTHING is open on Christmas Day. Maybe try a nearby WaWa, although it wouldn’t surprise me if they had their food service shut down as well.

I disagree, I found 16 restaurants open on Christmas Day within The Villages. The Gourmet Club's website is great for this.

Nobody should have to work on Christmas day. I hope extra large tips are the norm.

Havana CC is definitely opened Christmas with a special menu. Check the web sites, and they will usually tell you. Better make reservations.

And what if you don't celebrate Christmas? More people celebrate Eid al-Fitr, than Christmas.
Shut down gas stations, transportation, hospitals on Christmas? Pretty crazy idea.
