Memorial Day is here.
While the holiday is all about honoring U.S. military personnel who’ve lost their lives in service to their country, it’s also a time to come together with family and friends to kick off the summer season.
Sure, firing up the grill and hosting a backyard barbecue is fun and all, but the grocery shopping, cooking and cleaning that comes with it is anything but.
And since we all know how fast the workweek approaches, why not skip the hassle and go out to eat instead?
Whether you’re in the mood for a sit-down steak dinner or prefer a quick trip through the drive-thru on your way to a Memorial Day parade, there’s bound to be a restaurant or two in this collection of eateries that strikes your fancy. (We’re talking staples like California Pizza Kitchen, Cracker Barrel, McDonald’s and Starbucks.)
Opening and closing hours vary by location, so don’t forget to check with your local restaurant before heading out the door. And if you’re planning on running errands while you’re on the road, be sure to confirm the Memorial Day hours for Walmart, Target and any other stops along the way.
