Not all of us will be home for Christmas, or comfortably seated with friends and family for a Christmas feast… some of us will be on the road.
Highway travelers looking for a holiday meal can find it quite difficult. You’re tired and hungry so you jump of an exit only to find that every restaurant is closed.
An increasing number of chain restaurants are choosing to remain open during the holidays, or at least opening for limited hours to meet customer demand.
Here’s out list of chain restaurants open for business on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day 2014. (This listing will be updated as additional information becomes available.)
