Christmas dinners may look a smidge different this year, what with this COVID-19 mess and social distancing and all. So, how about a lovely takeout dinner from your local place?

Don’t worry about cooking, facetime with your family and sit back and relax, all the while supporting local restaurants. And if you can’t order takeout right now, consider getting a gift card for a future meal or as a gift for someone else to support local eateries.

Here are just a few of our favorite Christmas takeout restaurants.

Paloma’s Restaurant, new in Phoenixville (located at 101 Bridge Street, 484-302-7830), offers fresh pastries in their market as well as carryout specials for dinner, like French onion soup, marinated steak and grilled asparagus, cod, crab cakes, escargot, lobster bisque, tuna tartare, salads, and fromage and charcuterie boards.

Desserts include Buche de Noel, flourless chocolate torte, crème brulee, butterscotch budino, and so much more! Order online here.

Spring Hollow Golf Club’s Bar & Grille (located at 3350 Schuylkill Road in Spring City, 610-948-5566) is offering Christmas takeout that feeds 8-10 guests. Family-style takeout ensures your family will be happily full as they drift off to sleep!
