Are open on Monday vs. are open every Monday

Does 'We are open on Monday' mean 'We are open every Monday' or 'We are open this coming Monday'?

Many use 'We are open Monday to Friday' to mean 'We are open Monday to Friday every week'

But I have also seen 'We are open Mondays to Fridays'. Is this even grammatically correct?
