The weather is warm, and it’s getting darker later. That means one thing: Summer is almost here! But first, Memorial Day has to set the stage for the rest of the season. (We don't make the rules!) Because of that, it's probably one of the most anticipated weekends of the year—but at its core, Memorial Day is a federal holiday that honors those who've fallen while fighting for our country.

It's no secret that the day is commemorated with barbecues, pool parties, and a whole bunch of other fun Memorial Day activities. But the more plans you make for the holiday weekend, the more likely you are to need to do some last-minute shopping (or eating). Which is where we find ourselves asking: "What stores and restaurants are even open on Memorial Day?"

Thankfully, no matter where you find yourself on Monday, May 27, you can still run your errands, be it for ingredients for your patriotic desserts or a new swimsuit (why do they always go missing the moment they're needed again?). Ahead, we've rounded up grocery stores, convenience stores, retail stores, liquor stores, and restaurants open on Memorial Day so you can make sure you've got somewhere to go.
