Anyway, Daniel Boloud is too expensive and doesn’t look like they have a full catering menu.

We've done lots of Zabars catering but not for Thanksgiving. I think, let a place do what it does best. Get some great bagels and lox platters from Zabars for brunch the next day.

Fairway on the UWS has good Thanksgiving options. There is also a place in Yorkville but I am blocking the market's name.

OP here - I think you’re right about Zabars and Whole Foods isn’t great under the best of circumstances. So I’m thinking I’ll go with Butterfields, Fairway or maybe Citarella.

Zabars, Jacob’s, aquavit, David Burke, Jean Georges, Alfred portale, Daniel Boulud

Google isn’t the greatest for knowing if it’s actually good or reliable! Ideally they would deliver to me but I could go pick up.

Has anyone done Whole Foods thanksgiving catering recently?

The problem is that this is not a ny forum. So you won’t get a lot of people here who have actually ordered from them. I think Alfred portale’s and Daniel Boulud’s reputations are pretty reassuring that they can pull off an american thanksgiving meal. Are you ues or uws? Try a moms’ forum like Ye’s mommas or hrpmamas

Can you just go out to eat? Wouldn't that be simplier?

No, this is for an elderly relative who cannot go out!

If this is just for your immediate family and an elderly relative I would definitely think about ordering from a restaurant and picking up. I'm the PP who did WF CC regularly and I've been to Jacob's Pickle once. It was really good and decadent. It might be a treat for someone who doesn't get out a lot. I'm UWS so don't know any UES options.
