Holiday Hours: What Cafes And Restaurants Are Open On Christmas

From Auckland to the U.S., dining options abound this festive season with notable cafes and late-night menus available.

During the holiday season, Auckland and various locations across the United States present options for dining out, especially on Christmas Day. With many local eateries adjusting their hours, patrons seeking meals or coffee have plenty of choices available.

From casual diners to community cafes, here’s what you need to know about opening hours during this festive period. For those in Auckland, the selection of cafes open during the holidays is highlighted.

Among the cafes, Allpress Ponsonby at 266 Ponsonby Rd remains accessible with hours from 8 am to 3 pm, closed Saturdays except for the festive season from December 24-31. Following suit, Allpress Roastery Cafe closes for the holidays from December 20 through January 5, reopening on January 6.

Bambina, also located on Ponsonby Rd, will be closed on December 25, 26, 31 and January 1, but open during the days from December 27-30 and January 2-3 from 7 am to 2 pm, ensuring customers can enjoy meals after holidays. Beabeas Bakery maintains closures from December 25 to January 14 and will open again on January 15.

Other notable outlets include Cazador Deli, providing lunch options with its opening days from December 27-30 and extending until January 3, closing only on December 25-26 and January 1-2. At the same time, Chuffed and Coffee Pen both present limited hours for pick-up on Christmas weekend.

Across the Pacific, fast-food options offer convenience on Christmas Day. Popular chains like McDonald's, Dunkin', and IHOP will extend their hours to accommodate customers. McDonald’s will open, though hours may vary, similar to Starbucks and Dunkin', which will have select locations open; checking each restaurant's app is advised.

Chick-fil-A, on the contrary, will maintain its closure on Christmas—this trend is echoed by Texas Roadhouse and Olive Garden, which have opted to close for the day. Customers can find some options at Applebee's and Wendy's, which may have selected outlets open.

Dining out on Christmas Day is also on offer, as seen by several establishments like the Asian Grill Express and Bawarchi Biryani Point located within Fort Collins, Colorado, both of which will welcome guests with doors open from 11 am onwards.

Dragon Lee Restaurant and East Moon Asian Bistro join as dinner options at 11 am, along with family-favorite Denny’s, which will operate 24 hours. This variety gives locals and visitors alike numerous avenues for enjoying festive meals.

Starbucks locations 'round Fort Collins will be available at various times ranging from early morning to afternoon, accommodating coffee aficionados during their holiday routines. Specific hours depend on individual store operations, and customers are encouraged to check appropriately.

This holiday season, whether relaxing at trusted local spots or enjoying take-out from well-known chains, plenty of options for dining out are available, ensuring patrons can celebrate with good food and company.

All these arrangements allow families and friends the chance to connect over meals rather than worrying about cooking at home, making it not only about sustenance but also about togetherness during the festive season.

So whether you're grabbing brunch with friends or seeking cozy spots for your coffee fix, this guide offers insight to help Aucklanders and Americans alike make the most of their holiday dining experience.
