Walgreens hours

Many Walgreens stores are open 24 hours; the rest typically run 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM daily. The pharmacy counter inside is open 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM Saturday, and 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM Sunday, with a daily lunch closure from 1:30 PM to 2:00 PM. Hours vary by location, so check the official Walgreens store locator for both store and pharmacy hours at your nearest Walgreens.

Walgreens is a major US drugstore chain with about 9,000 retail locations and an in-store pharmacy at most of them.

The questions most shoppers have are short: what time does the Walgreens pharmacy open, is Walgreens open Sunday, are there 24-hour Walgreens nearby, and which holidays change the hours?

Two quirks worth knowing for Walgreens: many stores are 24 hours but the pharmacy counter inside is not (typical pharmacy hours are 9 AM to 9 PM weekdays with a 1:30 to 2:00 PM lunch closure), and on Thanksgiving most non-24-hour Walgreens stores fully close while the 24-hour locations stay open. Walgreens-owned urgent care subsidiary CityMD (acquired January 2023) operates about 150 walk-in clinics across the NY/NJ/CT tri-state area with extended 7-day-a-week hours.

Hours vary widely by location and especially between standard and 24-hour stores, so the locator further down the page is the fastest way to confirm both store and pharmacy hours for your nearest Walgreens.
