All Star Lanes
6 Porchester Gardens, W2 4DB (020 7025 2676 ); Victoria House, Bloomsbury Place, WC1B 4DA (020 7025 2676)
What can be more American than 50's styled bowling and traditional comfort food? At the Holborn and Bayswater branches of All Star Lanes, a Thanksgiving menu will be offered (£17 for two courses; £20 for three courses). Dishes include roast pumpkin and sage soup, roast turkey with cranberry and cornbread stuffing and a 'harvest vegetable selection', and pecan pie with bourbon toffee sauce and whipped cream for pudding.

Bea's of Bloomsbury
44 Theobald's Road, Bloomsbury, WC1X 8NW (020 7242 8330/www.beasofbloomsbury.com)
On Thursday, the lunch menu at this boutique cake shop will be Thanksgiving-themed. Expect brined roast turkey, sweet potato bake and cornbread and chorizo stuffing among the offerings; if you're hurried for time, pick up a turkey, stuffing and cranberry sandwich for the road. Of course, there are also plenty of sweet American treats: southern pecan pie, pumpkin pie and a vanilla cake with a pumpkin cheesecake center and cinnamon buttercream. Read more

Bodean's
10 Poland Street, Soho, W1F 8PZ. Branches: 69 Clapham High St, SW4 7SS (020 7622 4248); 4 Broadway Chambers, SW6 1EP (020 7610 0440); 57 Westbourne Grove, W2 4UA (020 7727 9503); 16 Byward St, EC3R 5BA (020 7488 3883)
For £18.95 per person, a three-course ‘traditional family-style feast’ can be had at this North American barbecue restaurant. That means plenty of clam chowder, turkey (with cornbread stuffing and double-smoked ham among the accompaniments) and those most American of puddings, apple cobbler and pumpkin pie. Available all day on November 26. Read more

Christopher's
18 Wellington Street, Covent Garden, WC2E 7DD
A concise three-course menu for lunch and dinner on Thanksgiving needs to be booked in advance (and you’ll need to give them a £20 deposit). Turkey is definitely on the cards, along with apple cobbler and a starter of roasted corn and sweet potato soup. Read more

Eastside Inn
38-42 St John Street, Farringdon, EC1M 4AY
Chef-proprietor Bjorn van der Horst was raised in New York, while his wife Justine is Canadian; it’s unsurprising then that they have a soft spot for Thanksgiving. On November 26, a special £45 menu served at the bistro (available for both lunch and dinner) makes the most of ingredients such as pumpkin, turkey and sweet potatoes, finishing off with a pecan pie with apple and cloves.

Lower East
28 Westferry Circus, Docklands, E14 8RR
This New York-style bar-brasserie is getting stuck into Thanksgiving with a special three-course menu for £30 per person. There are three choices per course, with starters including roast pumpkin soup with cumin bread, or wild mushrooms with roast figs and cornbread. Mains feature maple-roasted turkey with all the trimmings while pecan pie and New York-style cheesecake are available for pudding. Read more

Missouri Angel
America Square, 14 Crosswall, City, EC3N 2LJ
This ‘fine dining American restaurant’ opened its doors two years ago on Thanksgiving. For their birthday, the menu features – among more traditional offerings such as roast turkey with cranberries and the ubiquitous pumpkin pie – blackened rib-eye steak, roast parsnip soup and pecan maple tart.

Hey you above
Love The Breakfast Club too, the Hoxton branch in particular - its much bigger and way cooler. I noticed they are doing a Thanksgiving Menu on the 26th & 27th and went in to book a table. Staff were extremely helpful and may I add very good looking. Anyway booked a table no problem but I think its filling up fast. I would check the website for contact details.
Happy Thanksgiving
Where was the Canadian Tthanksgiving dinner restaurant options last month?!
Hmmmmm.....
Oops, that should be th 26th!
Just shopping around Angel today and noticed a sign outside The Breakfast Club on Camden passage saying they will be having a special Thanksgiving menu. Dishes on the menu include turkey with all the trimmings and pumpkin cheesecake, as well as the more casual "mac and cheese" and meat and veggie Thanksgiving pies. I love this place for brekkie and dinner, and with yummy cocktails on the evening menu I can't wait to sample the Thanksgiving offerings! See you on the 27th!
