what time can i buy alcohol in illinois on sunday
There is no single statewide Sunday start time that we could confirm. The Illinois Liquor Control Commission's town-by-town survey lists different Sunday hours, such as 9:01 a.m. in Oak Lawn and 11 a.m. in Romeoville, so check your local rules.

The Illinois Liquor Control Commission (ILCC) publishes a survey of local liquor rules. Its pages show Sunday hours differ by municipality. We could not open the state statute text, so we do not state a statewide rule.
Examples from the ILCC survey
| Town | Sunday on-premise | Sunday off-premise |
|---|---|---|
| Oak Lawn | 9:01 a.m. to 1:59 a.m. | Not listed |
| Romeoville | 11 a.m. to 2 a.m. | 11 a.m. to 2 a.m. |
On-premise means bars and restaurants; off-premise means stores selling to take home. The survey pages show no “last updated” date, so they may be out of date.
How to check
- Look up your town on the ILCC local survey pages.
- Read your city or county liquor ordinance, or call the village clerk.
- Ask the store, since license types can have different hours (Romeoville’s page lists a separate Class E Sunday window of 7 a.m. to 2 a.m.).
Laws and local ordinances change, so confirm before relying on any time. For other state rules see our laws and travel guides.
