Pro Tip: You can use Siri to check business hours - CNET

Here's a neat trick I didn't realize Siri was capable of until recently:
providing business hours for both big-box retailers and smaller, local
businesses on demand.
The feature was recently covered on OS X Daily.
Asking Siri for business hours, or more simply, when business opens or
closes saves you from having to search for a website, or -- even worse,
call a business -- for routine information.
Various examples of responses you can expect from Siri when asking for
business hours.

Some examples of voice requests you can use are:
• "What time does ___ open/close?"
• "What are ____ hours?"
• "Is ___ open/closed right now?"
I've had mixed results when requesting hours for local businesses, but
from what I can tell if the business has its hours listed on Yelp, Siri
will find it. Otherwise Siri will let you know she couldn't find an
answer, instead providing a Yelp card complete with a phone number and
address.
