Thanksgiving is Thursday, November 26, and we would love to host you. Chef Owner John Doherty’s BLACKBARN, a New American restaurant in NoMad steps from Madison Square Park, is now taking reservations for Thanksgiving dinner in NYC. Forbes included us in its guide to where to make Thanksgiving dinner reservations in New York City, and our kitchen is also catering the holiday for offices, Friendsgiving, and family dinners at home.
There are four ways to spend Thanksgiving with us:
Thanksgiving dinner in the restaurant on November 26
A private room for larger families on Thanksgiving Day
Friendsgiving and corporate Thanksgiving events throughout November
Thanksgiving catering, delivered or ready for pickup
Thanksgiving Dinner in NoMad
Thanksgiving dinner at BLACKBARN is three courses, with starters and sides set out family style for the table to share. Chef Doherty spent nearly three decades at the Waldorf Astoria New York before opening BLACKBARN. His menu brings together the holiday’s most familiar dishes and a few of our own, and it’s made for a long, unhurried meal with family and friends.

Friendsgiving and Corporate Thanksgiving Events
November is when friends and colleagues gather before everyone leaves for the holiday. BLACKBARN has seven private event spaces across three floors, suited to an intimate Friendsgiving dinner or a company Thanksgiving celebration:
The Loft and the Den on the third floor
The Cabin and the Shed, just off the Main Dining Room
The Cellar, downstairs
Our events team plans each menu with you, and the same rooms carry straight into holiday party season in December.
