The 6 best places to order last-minute Christmas dinner online in 2024

Shop for Christmas treats at Goldbelly.

Restaurants large and small use Goldbelly to ship their signature menu items right to your door. Available nationwide, Goldbelly has curated the best Christmas treats from multi-course dinner kits to a la carte choices, including mains (prime rib, anyone?), sides, appetizers, cookies, pies, and other desserts. There's no better way to spend the holidays than filling up on delicious eats and supporting small businesses.

Order Christmas dinner and dessert from Harry & David.

While Harry & David is known for chocolate towers and gift baskets, you can order so much more, including a full Christmas dinner. The specialty food retailer's mouthwatering, heat-and-serve Gourmet Prime Rib Feast features a ready-to-cook prime rib roast with horseradish sauce, sides, and dessert. Plus, you can get appetizers like a charcuterie and cheese platter to keep your hungry guests at bay while you prep the main course.

See all the Christmas options at Omaha Steaks.

Choose from holiday feast bundles, build your own Christmas dinner, or buy separate main courses, sides, and desserts from online butcher Omaha Steaks. The customizable packages come ready to cook with easy-to-follow directions. As one of the best meat delivery services, Omaha Steaks is known for its mouthwatering proteins, though you can also count on excellent desserts and side dishes, cheesy potatoes, caramel apple tartlets, and more.

Shop all of Williams Sonoma's holiday options.

Known for its high-end home and kitchen products, Williams Sonoma also has premade holiday dinners that will impress your guests. Prime rib takes center stage in many of the ready-to-cook meals, but there are other options, including beef Wellington, ham, and turkey. Each meal includes delicious sides and dessert, and appetizer add-ons are available. Williams Sonoma requires more lead time because it doesn't offer next-day shipping on perishables, so place your order soon.

Order Christmas charcuterie at Boarderie.

You don't want hungry guests crowding your kitchen as you prepare Christmas dinner, so we recommend distracting them with the charcuterie and cheese boards from Boarderie. The pre-arranged, expertly crafted boards arrive overnight: just take the board out of your fridge an hour before serving, unwrap it, and serve. Even Oprah is a fan, naming Boarderie to her favorite things list two years in a row. For dinner, three friends and I tried a large board — designed to serve up to 10 people as an appetizer — and only made it halfway through before we were stuffed.

Check out all the holiday options at the Honey Baked Ham Co.

Ham is one of the most popular holiday centerpieces, and Honey Baked Ham is the best place to get one for Christmas dinner. It offers several ham dinners for different group sizes, but the 19-person option stands out as the largest on our list. Turkey breast meals are also available along with separate dishes: popular heat-and-serve sides and desserts include cheesy potatoes au gratin, double cheddar mac and cheese, maple sweet potato souffle, and a cheesecake sampler.
