With the holiday season approaching, many coffee lovers are wondering if they can grab their favorite beverage at Starbucks on Christmas Day. For those eager for some caffeine on December 25, the answer is yes—some Starbucks locations will be open!
According to Starbucks' official store locator, various locations across Ontario will serve customers, making it easier for those craving coffee, pastries, or holiday treats to fulfill their cravings. It’s important to note, though, not all stores will be open, and operating hours can vary significantly.

"To find out if your local Starbucks is open on Christmas Day, search the store locator tool for location hours nearest you," Starbucks advises on their website. It's always recommended to check before heading out, as some stores might have reduced hours or may even be closed.
For those planning to treat themselves with coffee before or after celebrating with family, it’s wise to check early. Christmas Eve and Christmas Day often bring varying hours for different locations around the country. Many other popular retailers share similar practices, with reduced hours or closures.
Though many stores will operate with limited hours, some businesses will remain open to accommodate holiday shopping and last-minute gift needs. Aside from Starbucks, customers might also find local gas stations and convenience stores open, providing some flexibility for late-night coffee runs.
For those scheduling last-minute Christmas shopping, it’s useful to know the operating hours for other retailers as well. For example, CVS and Walgreens will have varying hours on both Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, though many major grocery chains like Aldi, Costco, and Trader Joe's will be closed. Major chains like Walmart will also be shut down on Christmas Day, highlighting the importance of checking before venturing out to shop.
The holiday period can bring both excitement and stress for many consumers, especially when it involves coordinating times with family and friends. Therefore, knowing where to go for coffee and snacks can be part of the holiday planning process.
Starbucks is communicating clearly to customers this season how to navigate their hours during this busy time. By ensuring everyone knows the best way to check store hours, it allows customers to plan effectively for their holiday indulgences.
"This list is not exhaustive. Search your location to find all Starbucks locations open in your area and check the hours before you go," the company stated, highlighting the importance of location-specific information during the festive season.
Owning to the foundational nature of coffee shops like Starbucks, their potential holiday hours become part of larger discussions about family traditions and holiday cheer. For many, grabbing coffee on Christmas Day can be as much about the beverage as it is about the experience, serving as either the first stop on their holiday errands or as part of their gifting and celebration plans.
