What grocery stores are open on thanksgiving day near me

Thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic, many major chains that have traditionally been open on Thanksgiving Day are remaining closed for the third year running in 2022, both to limit pre-Black Friday crowds in stores and to reward employees for their hard work during a particularly tough time.

However, while many businesses, including Target and Walmart, will keep their doors closed on the holiday, some major stores, especially grocery and food service chains, will likely be open on Thanksgiving in 2022.

Opening details for many grocery stores have not yet been announced, but last year, stores including Whole Foods, Dollar General, Kroger and other supermarkets within the Kroger family were open on Thanksgiving Day, and at least some businesses are likely to remain open again this year, whether for full or reduced hours.

Store hours may still be subject to change and may vary by location. So, it’s worth double-checking that your local store is open before heading out to grab those last-minute ingredients for Thanksgiving dinner, or items needed for Thanksgiving activities and Thanksgiving crafts!

We will be updating this list as more businesses confirm their Thanksgiving Day opening details.
