Company yeti cup. Company jacket or vest. Saw one company that had a select beer brewed with their name on the label and gave out cases of it, but that’s probably for a very large order (cool idea though). Subscription to Jelly of the Month club. Honey baked hams

Edit: you own restaurants. Just give your employees the extra cash. They need it

I'm sure a good bit of those employees are part time.


The majority of them work 32-38 hrs/wk

You’re right about that. Just trying to appear a little more thoughtful

Maybe personalized Tervis tumblers or insulated mugs. With their name- not the restaurant's. That's one thing that's always useful and it doesn't really matter if you already have a few.

If that comes in below budget, you could put a gas card inside for like $10-15.

It's nice that you're doing something for them

As others have suggested, I would get them a gift certificate for a smoked turkey or a honey baked ham. Those are wonderful to have for holiday meals, but no one will generally buy it for themselves.

Quit being a cheap boss and give them all a $350 cash bonus.

Gift cards is probably the way to go. It might not appear as thoughtful, but it keeps you from buying gifts that 50% of them will inevitably not really like.

thoughtful in your industry is not making them work on Christmas

This. I'd much rather something I can actually use.

Statistics show people value a tangible gift more than $ or blank gift cards.

The echo dot is $30 right now. That's what I'd go with. It's fun and can be easily resold if they just want the cash.
