Did you forget to pick up something for your Christmas dinner? Need a dessert to complete the meal? Then you may be wondering which grocery stores are actually open on Christmas Day.
While last minute shopping for Christmas might be more about the gift giving, the food can be just as important. And if you find yourself forgetting things or just really need a grocery run, then you need to know which stores are actually going to be open on December 25.

- Safeway – As Good Housekeeping points out, Safeway locations will be open, but not every store. This means you will want to check before heading out to snag those grocery needs.
Honestly, most grocery stores will be closed for Christmas, as it is the one day of the year that almost all stores are in fact closed. But if these stores don’t work, there are a few other places you can hit up for those grocery needs, including:
- Walgreens
- CVS
- 7-Eleven
- Wawa
- Rite Aid
- Cumberland Farms
- Circle K
- Casey’s
- Family Dollar (not all locations)
No matter what, we always recommend calling ahead to confirm the hours of the store you need, just in case the reduced hours mean they are not open yet or they are already closed.
