Dutch Bros hours are some of the most searched questions about the chain, and for good reason. The stands open early enough for the first shift of the day and stay open late enough for a night drive coffee run. The catch is that Dutch Bros locations are franchises, so hours are set locally and can differ from stand to stand.
This guide gives the standard Dutch Bros hours most locations follow, plus what to expect on weekends and holidays. When it really matters, the Dutch Bros app shows live hours for your exact stand, and that always wins over any guide, including this one. While you plan your visit, you can check drink prices on our Dutch Bros menu homepage.
Standard Dutch Bros Hours
Most Dutch Bros stands follow this schedule:
| Day | Opens | Closes |
|---|---|---|
| Monday | 5:00 AM | 10:00 PM |
| Tuesday | 5:00 AM | 10:00 PM |
| Wednesday | 5:00 AM | 10:00 PM |
| Thursday | 5:00 AM | 10:00 PM |
| Friday | 5:00 AM | 11:00 PM |
| Saturday | 5:00 AM | 11:00 PM |
| Sunday | 5:00 AM | 10:00 PM |
The 5:00 AM opening is consistent across almost the whole chain, which is why Dutch Bros is a favorite of early commuters. The closing time is the part that moves. Many stands close at 10:00 PM on weeknights and 11:00 PM on Friday and Saturday, but some high-traffic locations stay open later, and a small number of stands in busy areas run extended or even 24-hour drive-thru service. Small-town stands can also close earlier.
What Time Does Dutch Bros Open?
Almost every Dutch Bros stand opens at 5:00 AM, seven days a week. A few locations open at 5:30 or 6:00 AM, mainly in quieter markets. If you need coffee before work, 5:00 AM is the safe assumption, and the line is shortest in the first hour.
What Time Does Dutch Bros Close?
Plan around 10:00 PM Sunday through Thursday and 11:00 PM on Friday and Saturday. That covers the majority of stands. Because closing times are set by each franchise owner, your local stand may close an hour earlier or run later. The app and Google listing for the specific stand will show the exact closing time, including any same-day changes.
Dutch Bros Holiday Hours
Dutch Bros is known for staying open on most holidays, usually with reduced hours. Here is the typical pattern, but always confirm in the app on the day itself:
| Holiday | Typical Hours |
|---|---|
| New Year’s Day | Open, often reduced hours |
| Easter Sunday | Most stands open, some with reduced hours |
| Memorial Day | Open, normal hours at most stands |
| 4th of July | Open, some stands close early for fireworks |
| Labor Day | Open, normal hours at most stands |
| Thanksgiving Day | Many stands open with shortened hours |
| Christmas Eve | Open, most stands close early |
| Christmas Day | Many stands closed, some open with limited hours |
| New Year’s Eve | Open, some stands close early |
Christmas Day is the one holiday where a closure is genuinely common. Thanksgiving and Christmas Eve usually mean a short day rather than a full closure. Holiday drinks are a big deal at Dutch Bros too, so stands try to stay open when they can. If a seasonal drink is what you are after, our Dutch Bros secret menu guide covers the year-round hidden drinks, including the Christmas Morning Chai.
Why Do Hours Vary by Location?
Dutch Bros grows through franchise operators, and each operator sets hours based on local demand, staffing and city rules. A stand near a highway or a college can justify an 11:00 PM or later close, while a small-town stand may wrap up at 9:00 or 10:00 PM. Weather and local events can also change hours for a day without much notice.
How to Check Your Stand’s Exact Hours
- The Dutch Bros app – the most reliable source. It shows your stand’s hours and lets you order ahead.
- Google Maps listing – search the stand and check the hours section, including special holiday hours.
- Drive by the stand – hours are posted at most locations, and regulars learn them fast.
Pro tip: if you are ordering near closing time, order ahead in the app. Your drink will be ready when you arrive, and you will not be the person holding up the line at 9:58 PM. And if you are deciding what to get, our Dutch Bros sizes guide explains which cup size is the best value before you order.
