Where to find a public toilet open 24 hours

These places are your most reliable options for a restroom that is open late or around the clock:

• 24-hour gas stations and convenience stores - the single best bet at night. In the US look for QuikTrip, Buc-ee's, Wawa, Sheetz, Circle K and 7-Eleven; in the UK, motorway service areas and some 24-hour supermarket petrol stations.
• 24-hour fast-food restaurants - many McDonald's, and Whataburger in Texas, stay open all night.
• Hospitals - emergency departments are open 24/7 and have public toilets.
• Large hotels - lobby restrooms are usually accessible; walk in confidently.
• 24-hour supermarkets - some large Walmart, Tesco and Asda stores are open all night.
• Airports and major transit hubs - open very early until very late, with plenty of toilets.
• Casinos (where applicable) - open 24 hours with large, clean restrooms.

Public toilets open late at night

In the evening, before the 24-hour options are your only choice, you can also rely on late-opening supermarkets, pubs and bars, cinemas, and bus and railway stations during service hours. In some city-centre nightlife areas, councils install automatic public conveniences and pop-up street toilets at night.

Are public park and street toilets open at night?

Usually not. Park, beach and street toilets - and many council-run public conveniences - close in the evening (and some close for the winter season). For an overnight toilet, stick to 24-hour gas stations, fast food, hospitals, hotels and transit hubs. Use the live map above to confirm what is open near you right now.
