What are Chili's hours today?
Chili's keeps simple, regular hours. Every one of the 21 restaurants we checked, from Ithaca, New York, to Moreno Valley, California, opened at the same time all seven days, and none served breakfast. Sunday hours matched weeknight hours at all 21, so Sunday is not a short day at Chili's.
Closing time is where locations differ. Restaurants in Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York and North Carolina stayed open an hour later than the rest, until 11 p.m. on weeknights and midnight on Friday and Saturday. A Moore, Oklahoma, store also closed at midnight on weekends. Two restaurants, in Kansas City and Midlothian, Virginia, closed at 10 p.m. every night, Friday and Saturday included. The table shows the full spread.

|---|---|---|
| Monday to Thursday | 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. | Open 10:45 to 11 a.m.; close 10 or 11 p.m. |

What time does Chili's open and close near me?
The second table lists each restaurant we checked, one per state, so you can see the pattern closest to you. Chili's in the Southeast and Northeast tended to run later: Ocala, Florida; Johns Creek, Georgia; Lake Charles, Louisiana; Leominster, Massachusetts; High Point, North Carolina; Holmdel, New Jersey; and Ithaca, New York all closed at 11 p.m. on weeknights and midnight on weekends. Restaurants in the West and Midwest, such as Moreno Valley, California, Dayton, Ohio, and Okemos, Michigan, closed at 10 p.m. on weeknights and 11 p.m. on weekends.
These are single restaurants, not state rules. Two Chili's in the same city can keep different hours, so always confirm on your restaurant's own page. If you are traveling, the store locator on chilis.com lists every Chili's by state and city, and each page shows that restaurant's weekly hours.

Is the Chili's dining room open?
Yes. Chili's dining rooms are open for dine-in during the posted hours, and all 21 restaurants we checked also took online orders for pickup. Twenty listed separate curbside pickup hours. At half of those, curbside ended 30 minutes before the restaurant closed; at eight it ran until closing, and at two it stopped an hour early.
Online ordering follows its own clock. The earliest pickup time offered was usually 11:15 a.m., and the last slot was 15 minutes before closing, so a restaurant that closes at 10 p.m. took its final online pickup at 9:45 p.m. Delivery through chilis.com depends on your address and the restaurant. If you plan to arrive in the last half hour, call ahead.
You can also pick up drinks with your food during those hours at many locations. At 11 of the 21 restaurants we checked, the online menu had a To-Go Alcohol section with margaritas and other cocktails. Chili's says alcohol must be ordered with food, you must be 21 or older, and availability varies by restaurant.
What time does Chili's 3 for Me end?
Chili's 3 for Me does not end at a set time. On the online menus of 20 of the 21 Chili's we checked, 3 for Me was its own menu section with no time window, next to the regular menu, and a June 2026 Chowhound review also found it is not limited to a day or time. You can order it from opening to close, for dine-in, pickup or delivery.
The confusion comes from 2024 and 2025, when Chili's sold a lunch-only version called 3 for Lunch, with extra combos from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on weekdays. Those lunch-only combos did not appear on any online menu we checked in November 2026. If your restaurant still runs a midday version, your server will know. Prices and what is included are on our Chili's specials page.
Is Chili's open on Thanksgiving and Christmas?
Plan on Chili's being closed on Thanksgiving Day. National holiday lists from FOX stations put Chili's in the closed column for Thanksgiving 2025, and the restaurant pages we checked on Nov. 1, 2026 showed only regular weekly hours. Older lists from 2019 said select locations opened, so a few may differ. For Christmas 2025, Chili's opened with shorter hours on Christmas Eve and closed on Christmas Day.
We found no Thanksgiving menu with prices on Chili's site. If you want Chili's food for a holiday gathering, order Party Platters ahead for pickup on another day. At mainland restaurants, a Triple Dipper platter was about $58, a 12-count Chicken Crispers platter about $38 and a Cajun Chicken Pasta platter about $35. For chains that do open on the holiday, see our guide to restaurants open on Thanksgiving.
Is Chili's open on Sunday and late at night?
Chili's is open on Sunday with its normal weeknight hours at all 21 restaurants we checked, usually 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. It is not a 24-hour or late-night chain: the latest closing time we found was midnight on Friday and Saturday, at eight of the 21 restaurants. Happy hour drink prices at most locations run Monday to Friday from 3 to 6 p.m. in the bar; the full price list is on our specials page.
Because Sunday matches the weeknight schedule, a late Sunday dinner works the same way as a Tuesday one: at a restaurant that closes at 10 p.m., the last online pickup slot is 9:45 p.m., and curbside often wraps up around 9:30 p.m.
How can you check the hours at your Chili's?
Each Chili's has its own page under chilis.com/locations, organized by state and city, with its address, phone number, weekly hours and curbside hours. That page is the best source, because the same hours drive online ordering. When you start an online order, the pickup time list shows only slots the restaurant is taking, which is a quick way to confirm it is open right now. On holidays and in bad weather, calling the restaurant is still the safest check.
Frequently asked questions
What time does Chili's close on Friday?
Most Chili's close at 11 p.m. on Friday and Saturday. In our check of 21 restaurants on Nov. 1, 2026, 10 closed at 11 p.m., eight stayed open until midnight, mostly in Eastern and Gulf states, one closed at 10:30 p.m. and two at 10 p.m. Your restaurant's page on chilis.com lists its exact time.
Can you order Chili's ahead for a later pickup time?
Yes. When you start a pickup order on chilis.com or in the Chili's app, you can choose a later time instead of the next available slot. At the 21 Chili's we checked, slots ran in 15-minute steps from about 11:15 a.m. to 15 minutes before closing, so you can order in the morning for a lunch pickup.
Are Chili's hours the same at every location?
Not quite. Opening times were nearly identical at the 21 Chili's we checked, 11 a.m. at 19 and 10:45 a.m. at two, but closing times varied by up to two hours. Restaurants in several Eastern and Gulf states stayed open later, while two stores closed at 10 p.m. every night. Check your restaurant's page on chilis.com.
Does Chili's have kids eat free on Sunday?
We found no Sunday kids-eat-free night at Chili's in November 2026. Chili's rewards page lists no free kids meal, and the online menus we checked priced kids meals at $6.99 every day of the week. If you have heard of a local kids night, call that restaurant to confirm. Details are in our Chili's kids menu guide.
