Thanksgiving is quickly approaching, and while some might enjoy cooking all day, we know it can also be a hassle — especially for a large crowd. Luckily for Hoboken and Jersey City residents, several local restaurants, caterers, and catering businesses have no problem doing the job. It’s easy to get an entire traditional Thanksgiving meal from the following restaurants in the Hoboken and Jersey City area. To save time and energy, we’ve rounded up a list of Thanksgiving catering options in Hoboken + Jersey City, New Jersey.
Disclaimer: This is a growing list — to be included, please email [email protected] with information about offerings + how to order.
Hoboken

BYRD | 800 Jackson Street
Throughout November, patrons can order a Friendsgiving meal for dine-in or to go at BYRD. The holiday meal features a roasted turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, gravy, Brussels sprouts, cranberry sauce, and potato rolls. The whole turkey is priced at $350 and serves six to eight people. To preorder for Thanksgiving Day, email the restaurant at [email protected]. More details can be found here.
Halifax | 225 River Street
Seasonal flavors will rule the day at Halifax. The Thanksgiving menu includes all the high notes like cranberry, apples, squash, and roasted everything. Even better? The dessert is a choice of one classic pie: apple crumble, bourbon pecan, mixed berry, or pumpkin. All orders must be placed by November 22nd, and pick up will be from 11AM to 1PM on November 28th. There are also options to dine in at the restaurant. See the full menu here.
Hudson Table | 1403 Clinton Street
For the ultimate semi-homemade holiday, order one of Hudson Table’s Thanksgiving kits. Each kit serves four and comes with everything needed to have a traditional feast. Plus, the turkeys are all cooked the morning of pick up so they’ll be ready to eat on Thanksgiving Day. We like that the kit comes with potato rolls for those leftover sandwiches. What’s more, there’s even a vegetarian stuffing option for anyone with dietary restrictions. Preorder now and pick up from 11AM to 1:45PM on either Wednesday, November 27th, or Thursday, November 28th.

Gluten-free, soy-free, nut-free, and vegan options will all be on offer here; all guests will be able to enjoy the classic seasonal tastes like pumpkin, maple, and apple. In years past, there was apple crumble pie on the menu — as well as a pumpkin loaf, pumpkin cheesecake, maple cinnamon whipped cream, and more (and that’s just the desserts). Busy Bee Organics will announce its Thanksgiving catering menu in the next few weeks, so check out the website here.

The Other 2025 Finalists
Luna
Luna's owners shared with us:
"Luna Balloona is a 4 year old English Bulldog who currently resides in Exchange Place, Jersey City. She’s as stubborn as she is cute. Fetch? Ha! Walks? Good luck. She’s the boss of the house and everyone knows it. She’s steals toys from her sister, only to drop them seconds later and move on. Her favorite spot is the kitchen, where her lightning fast reflexes catch any stray food particles before they hit the floor. Be warned: this smoosh-floof seductress may look like she only wants to be loved and held close but these are lies! Luna’s cuddles are not to be trusted as they’re often accompanied by 'unexpected rough air'."
David
David's owners shared with us:
"David is 100% American bully with a beautiful brindle coat. He’s 7 years old and we rescued him in June on a whim at an event at the Ale House. He’s the sweetest boy in the world, his favorite store is cornerstone and his favorite treats are greenies!"
Joey
Joey's owners shared with us:
"Meet Joey, the three-legged pittie with a heart as big as her smile! After being hit by a car living on the streets of Philly, she was given a second chance at life, and now she’s all about living it to the fullest. Joey may be missing a leg, but that doesn’t slow her down one bit—she’s a goofy, 50lb lap dog with endless love to give. Her sweet nature, fun-loving antics, and those irresistible wiggles when she’s excited make her the absolute best."
Riley
Rileys owners shared with us:
"Meet Riley, a 3-year-old booty shaking bundle of joy from Hoboken! Riley was adopted from Maryland and has been living her best city girl life ever since. She’s got a serious love for treats, especially the Mackie's treats that her mom and dad get at the Hoboken Farmers Market (she can spot them from a mile away!). When she’s not enjoying a snack, you can find Riley at Church Square Dog Park, where she’s the queen of chasing pigeons and squirrels, or down the shore on her Grandma and Grandpa's boat. Her favorite local hangout is Hoboken Pet, but she also loves tagging along with mom and dad to Mojo Coffee Shop, where they always have dog treats ready for her. Fun facts: Riley is afraid of cats (even though she tries to act tough), she’s a pro napper while her mom works from home, and if you catch her in a good mood, she’ll wow you with the cutest butt wiggles you’ve ever seen!"
Cinnamon Puff
Cinnamon Puff's owners shared with us:
"Meet Cinnamon Puff! He’s a 10-week-old Yorkipoo who recently moved to Hoboken with his parents after being adopted from a friend whose dogs had puppies. Though he’s still settling into his new home, Cinnamon Puff is already loving exploring around Hoboken. We’ve been taking him for "walks" (aka carrying him in a bag) around town so he can take in all the sights and smells. He’s been loving the local pet stores and has already scored plenty of treats (shout out Cornerstone Pets and Bond Vet for the goody bag and treats). He’s soaking it all in and adjusting to his new life with endless curiosity. We are so thrilled to have him and can’t wait for the many adventures ahead with our little buddy!"
Zorba
Zorba's owners shared with us:
"Zorba is a 6.5 year old German shepherd whose first visit as a puppy after being adopted was to Stevens campus to visit his now Dad. He now lives a spoiled life in his favorite city with his parents (who are both Stevens Alumni) getting absolutely everything he wants. Zorba has osteoarthritis and hip dysplasia, so his favorite new activity is going for therapy at Sage Veterinary in Jersey City to do the under water treadmill - where he gets lots of treats. One of Zorba’s best buddies was the stray cat who lived near our building! She used to follow him around and sit on his tail. The cat (Cleo - now Yardie) was untrusting of humans but when Zorba was outside, she would trust him and come close. Zorba likes to say he was instrumental in getting her rescued and adopted. Zorba’s favorite treats are beef lung from Hoboken Pet."
Metro
Metro's owners shared with us:
"Metro is a 1 year old cockapoo and is just the happiest guy. Originally from NYC, he moved across the Hudson to Hoboken with his pawrents in late 2024 and is loving his new city! He loves going anywhere with his mom, whether it’s picking up more chicken treats at LB Healthy Pet Markets or grabbing a drink at The Ale House. You can find him cruising down Washington with his head out the window every weekend. He also loves creating content for his TikTok account, @metrothecockapoo!"
Winni
Winni's owners shared with us:
"I’m Winni, a 1 year old silver brindle pug! I live in Hoboken, NJ with my mom and all my friends aka anyone who will pet me or let me sit on their laps! I am OBSESSED with Cornerstone Pets and will refuse my treats at home so my mom will take me there for their superior treats! My grandma calls me the parkour pug because I run so fast and love to go under things (people’s legs and park benches) and jump up on high surfaces like it’s no problem! I love to go shopping with my mom, get pup cups and sit on random strangers laps at the dog park!"
Thanks again to all who entered and donated to Wise Animal Rescue and Ace of Hearts Rescue — and stay tuned for some potential additional pup features because we just love them all!
