Pharmacy chain profile

Walgreens hours, holidays, and savings

Walgreens operates roughly 8,500 retail pharmacy locations across the United States. Headquartered in Deerfield, Illinois and founded in 1901, it's one of the most relied-on chains for prescription fills, walk-in vaccinations, and front-store essentials.

Standard Walgreens hours

Store hoursMonday–Sunday 8:00am–10:00pm at the majority of locations
Pharmacy counterMonday–Friday 8:00am–10:00pm, Saturday 9:00am–6:00pm, Sunday 10:00am–6:00pm

The hours above are the chain-wide defaults. Individual stores adjust based on local market demand, lease terms with the surrounding shopping center, and staffing. The Walgreens store locator publishes the exact hours for every location in JSON-LD format on the location page, and we use that data as the source of truth on every chain × city page on this site.

24-hour Walgreens locations

Walgreens still operates roughly 400 24-hour stores nationwide, the largest 24-hour pharmacy footprint of any chain. Many of these locations also keep a 24-hour pharmacy counter, making them a reliable fallback for late-night prescription pickups.
