Most Starbucks stores that open on Thanksgiving close much earlier than a normal day, often around early afternoon, but exact hours vary by location and are not the same nationwide.

Quick Scoop

  • Many Starbucks locations operate with reduced hours on Thanksgiving, if they open at all.
  • Typical holiday schedules show some stores opening later in the morning (around 7 a.m.) and closing as early as 1 p.m. or early afternoon so employees can spend time with family.
  • Other locations (especially in busy travel areas) may stay open longer, but there is no single nationwide closing time.

What this means for you

  • The only reliable way to know “when Starbucks closes on Thanksgiving” for your store is to:
    • Check the Starbucks app or website store locator for that specific day.
* Or call the store directly, since each manager sets holiday hours within corporate guidelines.

In practice, plan for Starbucks to close much earlier than usual on Thanksgiving—often around midday—unless your local store’s listed hours say otherwise.

TL;DR: There isn’t one standard closing time; many Thanksgiving‑day Starbucks close around early afternoon, so always double‑check your exact store’s hours in the app or by phone.
