“Temporarily closing the restaurant is a decision made on a local level due to short staffing,” Waffle House noted. Heavy has reached out to Waffle House public relations for additional details.
According to Drivinvibin.com, Waffle House “is open 24/7, 365 days a year…Christmas Day is one of the busiest days of the year for the franchise…Waffle House execs step in and take orders and cook next to employees.

According to Holiday Shopping Hours, Kwik Trip is open on both Christmas Day and Christmas Eve 2022.
Heavy called several Kwik Trips in Wisconsin. Some Kwik Trips are open for 24 hours on both Christmas Day and Eve 2024, such as the one on Brown Street in Oconomowoc, Wisconsin. However, another Kwik Trip in Oconomowoc, Wisconsin, on Wisconsin Avenue, is only open from 5 a.m. to 11 p.m. both days. This shows that story hours can even vary in the same town.
Essentially, the hours vary by location, so the best bet is to use the store locator and call your local Kwik Trip to find out. The store locator does provide phone numbers, and you can search for your local Kwik Trip by zip code.
