Subway Opening Hours

The subway opening hours at Subway, answered properly: the hours the stores actually keep, day by day. Trading hours at Subway vary by store, state and day — and public-holiday hours vary again. Dine-in hours, takeaway hours and delivery hours are not always the same at one store, and the kitchen usually closes before the doors do. On public holidays most stores trade with changed hours for the opening hours range, and a few close entirely on Christmas Day. Find your store on the near-me page, then check its listing, the app, Google, or phone it for the exact hours for the opening hours range.
The tables below list the hours by day and by service, and the find section after them lists the stores by state, so the hours for a store near you are one step away. Public holidays change the hours for the opening hours range at most stores, and the change is not the same everywhere. Most stores trade on public holidays but with changed hours, some open later and close earlier, and some close entirely on Christmas Day. New Year’s Day, Good Friday and Anzac Day are the other days when hours change most. Holiday hours are set store by store, so check the store’s listing or the app on the day itself — the holiday table in this post shows the pattern, not your store’s exact hours.
This post sets out the opening hours hours table by table — weekdays, weekends, kitchen hours and 24-hour stores — then covers how to find a store and the questions people actually ask about the opening hours range. People searching for subway opening hours prices australia land here for the same reason: the tables below list the hours for every day of the week.
SUBWAY OPENING HOURS — OPENING HOURS
Weekday hours
On weekdays Subway stores open in the morning and trade through to the late evening. The exact opening and closing times vary by store, so the app has the hours for yours.
| Day | Hours |
|---|---|
| Monday to Friday | Varies by store — most stores open in the morning and close late in the evening. |
| Saturday | Varies by store — weekend hours can differ from weekdays. |
| Sunday | Varies by store — Sunday hours are often shorter than weekdays. |
Weekend hours
Saturday and Sunday trade on their own hours at Subway, and both vary by store — check the app before you set out.
| Day | Hours |
|---|---|
| Saturday | Varies by store — weekend hours can differ from weekdays. |
| Sunday | Varies by store — Sunday hours are often shorter than weekdays. |
Kitchen hours
At Subway the kitchen stops taking orders before the store closes — allow time if you are ordering late.
| Service | Hours |
|---|---|
| Dine-in kitchen | Closes before the store — check the app for the last order time. |
| Takeaway kitchen | Closes before the store — order before the kitchen cutoff. |
| Drive-thru kitchen | Follows the drive-thru hours where a drive-thru exists; closes before the store. |
| Delivery kitchen | Follows the store hours — delivery stops when the kitchen closes. |
24-hour stores
A small number of Subway stores are open 24 hours. Most stores close in the late evening, so check the app for a 24-hour store near you.
| Store | Hours |
|---|---|
| Selected 24-hour stores | Open 24 hours. |
| Most stores | Not 24 hours — close in the late evening. |
Hours near me
Hours vary by store, so the exact hours come from the Subway store itself — the app, the website, Google or a phone call.
| How to check | Where |
|---|---|
| In the app | Open the Subway app, pick a store and read its hours. |
| On the website | Use the store locator on the chain’s website. |
| On Google | Search the store name — Google lists its hours. |
| By phone | Call the store and ask for today’s hours. |
The dining room keeps the store’s hours, but the kitchen does not: last orders for dine-in come before closing, and the menu can narrow near the end of the night. Arrive with time to spare if you want the full menu rather than what is left.
Pickup is the store’s hours, and the app is the quickest way to order ahead: pick a store, order, and the app gives a pickup time. The kitchen cutoff applies to takeaway too, so a late order can be refused even while the doors are still open.
Drive-thru hours are set store by store and often run past the dining room’s close; some are 24-hour. Check the app for the drive-thru at your store, and remember breakfast is morning-only even where the drive-thru never closes.
Delivery stops when the kitchen does, which can be earlier than the store closing — and on quiet nights delivery can end earlier still. Delivery also costs more than pickup, and a few offers only apply to pickup, so the app is the place to check before ordering in.
No national timetable exists, so the hours for your store come from the store: the app first, then the website locator, then Google, then a phone call. The app is the most reliable of the four because it shows today’s hours, not the usual ones.
On a public holiday the hours are different, and they differ again from one holiday to the next — Christmas Day closes some stores outright. Use the holiday table above as the pattern and the app for the exact hours of your store on the day.
Each franchisee sets its own hours, so the store across town can close an hour earlier or later than yours. This post gives the pattern every store follows; the exact times are the store’s own, in the app.
During school holidays some stores extend their hours and some keep them — it depends on the store and where it sits. A store near a school or a holiday town is the most likely to change, so check the app for the hours during the break.
The first hour of the day varies the most: airport stores and 24-hour stores open earliest, and a store can open late the morning after a public holiday. Check the app before an early order rather than trusting the usual opening time.
Over Christmas and New Year the hours move the most — Christmas Day closes many stores, Boxing Day and New Year’s Day run shorter, and normal hours return in the first week of January. Use the holiday table above as the pattern and the app for your store’s exact festive hours.
The kitchen closes before the store does, and that is the cutoff that matters for the opening hours range. The doors can stay open for drinks, desserts and takeaway while the kitchen has already stopped cooking, so arriving at closing time is too late for a meal. Order food well before the kitchen cutoff — the kitchen table in this post shows the pattern — and if you are ordering late, phone the store and ask whether the kitchen is still taking orders.
True 24-hour stores are the exception, not the rule, for the opening hours range. They are usually the busy city-centre, airport and highway stores, where overnight demand justifies keeping the kitchen open all night. Most suburban stores close in the late evening and open again in the morning, and even a 24-hour store can run a reduced overnight menu. The 24-hour table in this post says where round-the-clock service is most likely — confirm it on the store’s own listing before a late-night trip.
Public holidays change the hours for the opening hours range at most stores, and the change is not the same everywhere. Most stores trade on public holidays but with changed hours, some open later and close earlier, and some close entirely on Christmas Day. New Year’s Day, Good Friday and Anzac Day are the other days when hours change most. Holiday hours are set store by store, so check the store’s listing or the app on the day itself — the holiday table in this post shows the pattern, not your store’s exact hours.
Subway stores are run by different franchisees, so hours are set store by store for the opening hours range. Two stores in the same city can open and close at different times, and a store in a shopping centre follows the centre’s hours while a standalone store sets its own. That is why this post shows typical patterns rather than one set of hours for every store — the pattern tells you what to expect, and the store’s own listing tells you the exact hours.
