What You Need to Know About Waitrose Easter 2025 Opening Times
Hey folks, just a quick heads-up if you're planning to pop to the shops this Easter weekend—especially if you’re a Waitrose regular. As we all know, Easter brings with it a few bank holidays, and that means adjusted hours across most supermarkets. So before you step out for some last-minute chocolate eggs or ingredients for your Sunday roast, here’s everything you need to know about Waitrose’s Easter 2025 opening hours.
So, first thing’s first— Waitrose will be closed on Easter Sunday . Yep, most of their larger stores across England and Wales will shut their doors in line with government trading laws. Any store over 280 square metres is legally required to close on Easter Sunday, and Waitrose falls under that rule for the most part. However, there are a few exceptions. Smaller "Little Waitrose" branches, as well as shops located inside petrol stations like Shell or Welcome Break, might still be open. If you're counting on those, best to double-check online or via their app to be safe.

Now, if you’re getting your shopping done ahead of time, Good Friday (April 18) and Easter Monday (April 21) are both great options. Most Waitrose stores will be open from 8am to 8pm on both days. Again, the Little Waitrose shops and garage-based stores may have extended hours—some even open as early as 6am and close as late as midnight.
Easter Saturday (April 19) is your golden opportunity for a full shopping experience, since all Waitrose stores will be running as usual. That’s the sweet spot if you're planning a big grocery haul or want the widest range of fresh stock.
Honestly, it's pretty helpful that they’re transparent about their schedule so people can plan ahead. There's nothing worse than making a mad dash to the store for something essential—only to find it shuttered. Waitrose is making it easier to stay ahead of the game this Easter.
Whether you’re hosting a big family meal or just need to stock up for a quiet weekend in, knowing these hours can help you avoid the Easter panic. And if you're counting on a smaller store being open, make sure to confirm with your local branch—opening times can vary quite a bit.
So, that’s the rundown. Waitrose Easter 2025 opening times are straightforward: closed on Easter Sunday for most, open 8am–8pm on Good Friday and Easter Monday, and normal hours on Saturday. Don’t get caught out—check before you go. Happy Easter and happy shopping!
