One of Savannah’s Best Thanksgiving Traditions

Celebrate Thanksgiving at Huc-A-Poos on Tybee Island with great food, community, and a tradition that gives back to the Inner City Night Shelter.

Each year, one of Savannah’s most heartwarming Thanksgiving traditions unfolds at Huc-A-Poos on Tybee Island. Known for its great food and relaxed atmosphere, Huc-A-Poos hosts an annual Thanksgiving Potluck that’s all about community, sharing, and giving back.

Huc-A-Poos invites guests to bring a side dish to share, and another to donate to the Inner City Night Shelter in Savannah. While the restaurant provides fried turkey, the rest of the meal is made up of dishes brought by those attending. The result is a warm, homemade spread of Thanksgiving classics, created by the generosity of everyone who joins in.

This event isn’t just about enjoying a hearty meal together—it’s about making sure others in need can enjoy Thanksgiving too. All the food donated for the shelter is given to those who may not have a place to celebrate the holiday, making this a truly meaningful tradition.

The potluck begins at 2 p.m. on Thanksgiving Day, and anyone is welcome. Whether you’re a local or just visiting, it’s a great way to experience a genuine Savannah holiday tradition focused on community and giving back.
