CVS Near Me: Find Stores, Hours & Directions Fast

If you’ve ever pulled into a parking lot only to find the pharmacy window shuttered, you know how quickly “CVS near me” shifts from a casual search to an urgent one. The good news: CVS makes it straightforward to check hours, find the nearest 24-hour location, and pull up turn-by-turn directions before you leave the house.

Official Store Locator: www.cvs.com/store-locator/landing · Browse by State: www.cvs.com/store-locator/cvs-pharmacy-locations · 24-Hour Locations: Included in locator · Passport Photo Labs: Available at select stores · Spanish Locator: es.cvs.com/store-locator/landing

Use these tools to pull up CVS hours, find 24-hour locations, and get directions in under a minute.

CVS Pharmacy hours near me

Hours at CVS vary by location and service counter — the store front desk, the pharmacy window, and MinuteClinic each have their own schedules. Checking hours before you go is especially important on Sundays, when many locations run shorter windows.

Using the official CVS locator for hours

The CVS.com Store Locator (CVS’s official store finder) displays hours for the store, pharmacy, and MinuteClinic side by side. For example, the CVS at 600 Central Ave E in Saint Michael, MN (Store #5920) keeps the store open until 9:00 PM, while the pharmacy closes at 8:00 PM and takes a lunch break from 1:30 PM to 2:00 PM. That lunch closure catches a lot of people off guard.

Checking 24-hour options

Not every CVS is open 24 hours, but the locator filters for 24-hour locations so you can narrow the list quickly. If your search returns no 24-hour stores within range, a standard CVS nearby still likely opens early and closes late — the Saint Michael store runs 9 AM to 9 PM on weekdays, for instance. Use the “Open now” filter on the locator to see only locations currently in business.

CVS near me within 20 mi

When you need a prescription filled or a MinuteClinic checkup, the 20-mile radius question comes up fast. CVS’s locator and Google Maps both let you dial in a precise search area.

Search radius in CVS tools

The CVS Store Locator defaults to showing stores near your entered zip code, and you can sort results by distance. A Minnesota example: the CVS at 4152 Lakeland Ave N in Robbinsdale, MN (Store #1129) operates Monday through Saturday from 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM, closing an hour earlier on Sundays from 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM. That 20-mile radius covers a mix of store types — some with drive-thru, some with passport photo labs, some with MinuteClinic.

Google Maps integration

For driving distance and real-time traffic, Waze (a navigation platform with live map data) links directly to the official CVS store page so you can verify hours before you turn onto the road. Google Maps offers the same distance and traffic data — both are worth checking if you’re driving during rush hour.

“MinuteClinic is open for you nights and weekends, with appointments available in person and virtually.”

CVS store locator by zip code

The zip code search is the fastest way to pull up stores near you — no scrolling through state-by-state lists, no guessing at city names.

Steps on cvs.com/store-locator

Enter your zip code on the CVS Store Locator landing page and the tool returns all nearby stores with their hours, services, and contact info. Each result links to a store-specific page — take the Saint Michael location, for instance — where you’ll see weekly specials, pharmacy details, and a map with turn-by-turn directions. The locator also supports keyboard navigation with arrow keys for accessibility.

Spanish version at es.cvs.com

Spanish-language users can access the same functionality at es.cvs.com (CVS’s Spanish-language portal), which mirrors the English locator with full store search, hours, and directions. Both versions pull from the same underlying store database, so the data is identical.

CVS pharmacy open now

Nothing is worse than arriving at a CVS to find the pharmacy window already closed. The “open now” check takes seconds and saves a return trip.

Real-time status check

The CVS Store Locator shows current open/closed status alongside each store’s listed hours. The Robbinsdale CVS at 4152 Lakeland Ave N, for example, is open Monday through Saturday from 9 AM to 9 PM but shifts to 10 AM to 7 PM on Sundays. If you’re checking on a Saturday afternoon, the locator confirms whether that store is still in business.

Filter for open stores

Use the “Open now” filter to surface only locations currently in operation, which is especially useful late at night or early in the morning when fewer stores are running. The filter works in tandem with the 24-hour option — if you need a prescription filled at 2 AM, this is the fastest path to a store that’s actually open.

Directions to the nearest CVS

Getting directions before you leave is the easiest way to avoid a wrong turn that costs you 15 minutes — especially when you’re on medication time pressure.

Google Maps directions

Plug “CVS” into Google Maps via Waze (which provides real-time driving directions based on live traffic) and it will surface the nearest stores ranked by driving distance. Tap any result and you’ll get turn-by-turn guidance, plus estimated arrival time factoring in current traffic conditions.

Built-in CVS tools

Each CVS store page (CVS’s location-specific information hub) includes a “Get Directions” link that opens maps.google.com with the store pre-filled as your destination. The Robbinsdale CVS page even displays the store phone — (763) 535-2459 — so you can call ahead to confirm a prescription is ready without waiting in line.

Step-by-step: Finding CVS near you

Three approaches cover almost every scenario. Here is the step-by-step for each method.

1. Enter your zip code on www.cvs.com/store-locator/landing. Results show hours, services, and distance from your location.
2. Click the specific store to see its full page — pharmacy hours, MinuteClinic hours, lunch breaks, and available services like drive-thru or passport photo labs are listed separately.
3. Use the “Open now” filter to remove closed stores from the results list.
4. Tap “Get Directions” on the store page to open maps.google.com with the store as your destination.
5. If you prefer browsing by state, go to www.cvs.com/store-locator/cvs-pharmacy-locations and select your state from the dropdown.
6. For real-time traffic on the drive, open Waze (which provides live map directions) and search “CVS pharmacy” to find the nearest location with live ETAs.

MinuteClinic and in-store services

Beyond prescriptions, CVS locations host MinuteClinic walk-in services — a practical option when you need care without a appointment at a doctor’s office.

The CVS MinuteClinic Locator (CVS’s clinic finder tool) lists locations offering walk-in care for injury and illness treatment, vaccinations, physicals, and health screenings, open 7 days a week. At the Saint Michael location, MinuteClinic operates until 6:30 PM — earlier than the store or pharmacy. CVS.com (the CVS homepage) notes that MinuteClinic offers both in-person and virtual appointments, available nights and weekends, making it easier to fit a clinic visit into a busy schedule.

CVS stores excel in photo services too, where photo printing prices at CVS Walmart Walgreens helps compare deals with Walmart and Walgreens before you go.

Frequently asked questions
