Easter is coming… Have you made plans for dinner yet?
*Update* This is our last posting of Easter restaurant reservation options. All the information we’ve gathered is listed here.
Easter is only days away, but some families that celebrate together may still be finalizing dining plans. Whether you celebrate Easter intimately with just your immediate family or if your entire clan comes together from across the country to take advantage of the holiday reunion opportunity, you’re going to need to eat. And while some families pitch in for giant home-cooked feasts, others would prefer to let a restaurant cook for them.
Outback Steakhouse – Outback is open as usual for Easter. The menu isn’t any different, but they have a good deal if you’re bringing kids. In honor of the holiday, you can buy any adult entree and get a FREE kids meal.
Edward’s Drive-In – From noon to 6:00 p.m. on Sunday, March 31, Edward’s is offering a buffet featuring fried chicken, glazed ham, homemade chicken and noodles, and more. You’ll also have your choice of plenty of desserts, along with a 16-oz. beverage. The price is $9.49 for adults, $6.49 for children 10 and under, and $7.49 for seniors 60 and over.

Also, kids under the age of four eat for FREE.
Cracker Barrel may not have a special Easter menu, but most of the foods families cook together on Easter Sunday will be there (i.e. ham and potatoes). Cracker Barrel will be open all day on Easter Sunday, and you will likely still find Easter-related merchandise in the country gift shop.
