San Francisco has a deep bench of Thanksgiving takeout for Thursday, November 26, 2026: grocery-market feasts that just need reheating, chef-made dinners, brined turkeys you roast yourself, and pies you can collect on Thanksgiving morning. This guide covers 15 kitchens, bakeries and delivery services with 2026 menus posted, and what each one asks of you in the oven.
Bi-Rite Market is the best all-around pick for a classic table with no assembly required. Gus's Community Market is the value play for eight or more, Jessie & Laurent delivers on Thanksgiving morning, and Tommy's Joynt is the walk-up rescue if plans fall apart. Prices are before tax and fees unless noted.

Tips for Ordering Thanksgiving Takeout in San Francisco
- Check whether it's reheat or roast. Most dinners here arrive cooked; Brenda's and Spruce send turkey you cook yourself, and Luke's sells both. A whole cooked bird still needs about two hours in the oven, plus time out of the fridge first.
- Thanksgiving Day itself is covered. Bi-Rite does pickup and delivery 8 a.m.–noon, Jessie & Laurent delivers 6 a.m.–1 p.m., Tommy's window runs 11 a.m.–5 p.m., Three Babes hands out pies 8 a.m.–2 p.m., and Zazie's pickup is 3–4 p.m.
- Watch the early deadlines. Spruce closes Nov. 8 and Three Babes delivery on Nov. 19, and turkeys and pies often sell out before the stated cutoffs.
