Is anything open on Christmas Day? Store and restaurant chains whose doors are open today.

If you still need to find a (very) last-minute gift on Christmas Day or track down an ingredient for your holiday feast, you may need to hunt around for an open store. Most retailers, restaurants, fast-food locations and grocery stores are shut on December 25, although there are a few exceptions. 

A few stores open their doors on Christmas Day, but not many. Unlike Thanksgiving, when more retailers, grocery chains and restaurants remain open, Christmas remains a holiday observed by most businesses.
