How to find store hours
 
Is there a reliable way to find store hours online? In the US, Google / Google Maps is 95% accurate. I searched for a big store (Walmart) in Gaode and Baidu maps, did not see hours.

-10p is a pretty standard closing time for those big stores and shopping malls
-restaurants inside malls typically stop taking orders at around 915p
-many restaurants are closed between 2 and 4 (nap time)
-smaller establishments often change their hours frequently, so it's best to call ahead
-bars often stay open as long as there are still customers

If there is a listed phone number then the best way is to call.

That works too, of course, but this stuff is usually easy to piece together. I will note that a lot restaurants take Monday or Tuesday off, so I call if the place I have in mind isn't part of a chain.

You can safely assume that most of the stores close at 9p if not later. Calling ahead is a good option, but a lot of the phone numbers you find online aren't up to date.

Most restaurants closed at 9p or 10p. Chains store like 711 McDonald’s might open 24h. But some locations might close at midnight.

Random example, I realize, but I can't recall ever walking past the Park Tavern before 3p on a weekday and seeing the gate open.

Ok, so maybe dianping + call if you really want to be sure.
