Restaurants close to Lake Mary Fl Open On Christmas Eve


Are you wanting to avoid a sink full of dishes after your holiday meal?

A great way to enjoy a delicious Christmas Eve dinner without the hassle is to go out to eat.
If you want a late night snack after placing all the gifts under the tree- read below to see which local location is open until 2:00 AM on Christmas Eve. You read that right…2:00 AM.

There is even one place that will save you from cooking on Christmas DAY!

Cracker Barrel in Sanford

Open until 2:00 pm on Christmas Eve, Cracker Barrel is the perfect place to get your fill of
comfort foods such as ‘Chicken and Dumplings’ and ‘Apple Butter on Biscuits’. They close early
on Christmas Eve to allow their employees to go home and do some cooking of their own- but if
you go there on the 24 th be sure to order a take-out meal to warm up and enjoy on the big day
itself- as they will be closed on Christmas Day.

Millers Ale House in Sanford

For those of you that don’t realize how long it was going to take to put together that Barbie
Dreamhouse- save this idea in your memory bank. Millers Ale House will stay open for you late-
night diners until 2:00 AM on Christmas Eve. With specialties such as their ’Zinger Melt’ all the
way through the menu to their popular ‘Captain Jacks Buried Treasure’ dessert- Miller’s has you
covered. Known for their delicious dinners that are served in ample portion sizes- a meal at
Miller’s is what I call a great way to start off your Christmas morning! (Very early morning that
is- lol)

Domino’s Pizza on Lake Mary Blvd

You knew this list wouldn’t be complete without the ole’ stand by- PIZZA! This is the food that
saves the day whether your kids bring extra friends home after the big game or when you don’t
feel like cooking after a long day at the office- pizza is the standard ‘dinner life saver’ for many
of us.

Not only is Domino’s open on Christmas Eve…they are also open on the big day itself!
Domino’s of Lake Mary is delivering piping hot pepperoni pizzas from noon to 10:00 pm on
Christmas Day. Besides your local convenience store you may not have many options on the
25 th – so make sure to save this idea, just in case.

Please remember to show extra appreciation to the delivery drivers working on this holiday.
I hope your Christmas is filled with laughter and love! If you have an additional location to add
to our list for next year, please let me know. I would love to hear from you!
