Most Golden Corral Restaurants Are Open on Christmas Eve & Some Are Open on Christmas Day 2020
Most Golden Corral restaurants are open on Christmas Eve. Some are even open on Christmas Day, according to a statement provided to Heavy. Golden Corral restaurants are individually owned and operated, so franchise owners have some discretion about when they would like to open.
Through the end of the year, Golden Corral will be selling holiday-style meals. Be sure to call your local restaurant to verify their hours before venturing out.
“All of our restaurants that have reopened across the country will be open on the 24th,” a spokesperson told Heavy. “Some restaurants will be open on Christmas, but that is at the discretion of the local franchisee so it will vary. It is best for guests to check with their local Golden Corral restaurant. Restaurants will be serving a home-style holiday meal with all of the fixings through the end of the year!”
The restaurants have also put additional safety measures in place due to the coronavirus, according to a press release.
“The health, safety and well-being of our co-workers, guests and communities are always our top priority and we are deeply committed to delivering on that promise,” said Golden Corral CEO Lance Trenary in a statement. “Our brand specializes in serving our local communities across the country. We implemented additional preventive measures to address coronavirus concerns and to maintain a clean and safe environment for our co-workers and our guests.”
