The new year has arrived, changing from 2024 to 2025. If you’re hoping to kick off your year with a warm coffee or a breakfast meal, you’re in luck!

Most grocery stores, retail shops, and dining establishments are expected to be operational on New Year’s Day, although some might adjust their hours. Many will also be open on New Year’s Eve.

If you’re seeking some caffeine on January 1, Starbucks might be a convenient choice. While many stores will be open, operating hours can differ by location, with some possibly closing or having limited hours.

The company advises customers to verify the holiday hours at their nearest Starbucks. You can also find information about local Starbucks locations through the store locator feature available on the Starbucks app or website.
