Where to Get Thanksgiving Takeout & Catering 2025

If you’re in the market for a delicious Thanksgiving meal minus setup, cooking and cleanup, we've got you covered.

Together With OG Dumpling House

The Perfect Comfort Food for a Laid-Back Date Night? Dumplings. Always Dumplings.

Whether you’re looking for a romantic date night out and about, or a cozy night in with your S.O., we know what you’ll be eating. Because you know what always hits, in-person or as takeout: dumplings.

The best shopping event of the year is back for TWO FULL WEEKENDS!

At this year’s Makers + Shakers we’re hosting a total of 225 vendors across both weekends at The Powerhouse! That’s 125 vendors each weekend, starting with a 3 day weekend BEFORE Thanksgiving this year from Nov 21 – 23, followed by another 3-day stretch on Thanksgiving Weekend from Nov 28 – 30, 2025. Each weekend will feature a majority of different local vendors, which means the options for checking off your list will be basically endless!

You can expect tons of awesome WNY artisans, collectors and curators offering everything from apparel and accessories to home goods, Buffalo stuff, art, jewelry, specialty foods and more! We’ll also have a build-your-own Bloody Mary bar, mimosas and a cash bar, food trucks, free booze samples, and exclusive vendor giveaways to win free stuff as you shop!
