13 WNY Restaurants Open on Christmas Day 2017

TBH, the main thing that gets us through the craziness of holidays is the food. We love food. But if you aren’t about preparing food for 5 siblings, 10 nieces and nephews, 4 in-laws, 2 grandparents, 6 aunts and uncles, etc. etc., then these restaurants are about to be your saving grace. Here’s a list of restaurants in Western New York that will prepare a stress-free (for the most part, we can’t control what your Aunt Susie says after all) holiday dinner for you and the fam.
