The annual celebratory feast of Thanksgiving may be a US tradition and national holiday but thankfully for expats and pumpkin enthusiasts the festive occasion has made its way to the UK and into the menus of some of the best restaurants in London.

If you are looking to celebrate Thanksgiving with a traditional plate of turkey rather than a platter of Tex Mex ribs, there are some fantastic options that are still available to book for this coming Thursday, 26th November.
