I use this place for my drugs and also to get some quick food. They have high quality items and a nice selection of foods and other things. Their prices are pretty normal for the area.

ZERO Stars if I could give. workers are not very friendly towards black patrons Ive noticed. I might consider walking further to shop at another store actually.. The girl with the RED HAIR at the counter is just rude. Super nice to all the other folk that shop there though!If you are taking my money, I expect the same customer service that your workers give to other patrons. I shop here for convenience as I live 1 min away, so expect decent service especially with the lack of variety of product they sell.. but no. I walk in and I am greeted with attitude and hostility EVERY TIME!! Fix it.Just some constructive criticism

I was visiting from out of state and the Pharmacist that was working at that time, Jesna, was extremely helpful with all the questions I had. She helped me select a good cough medicine for my boyfriend! I also had a lot of questions regarding OTC medicines and she was very patient and knowledgeable. Definitely one of the best customer service I’ve had in a Pharmacy! So happy I decided to stop by this place!

Convenient place to shop if you live around. Shopped here all the time during the beginning of the pandemic. Only a tiny bit pricey but hey this is not a supermarket. Wish their fruit and vegetable section had more variety and were well stocked. Everything else is stocked well.

I needed a local pharmacy that is close to my home and I found this place. Its close to the light rail and theres street parking. I met the manager and he was very professional, friendly, and knowledgeable about their products. The interior is clean and well organized. They also have a wide range of products from vegetables to baby toys. This place has been great for me and I will continue to use them.

This place is awesome! Very clean, stylish and convenient. The staff is always courteous and smiling. I come here almost every day - so the fact that they all remember me by name makes me feel like I am in a real neighborhood business. Their pharmacy is top-notch too- got some really valuable advice there!

This Downtown Pharmacy is surprisingly underrated but miles ahead of the ever so expensive Hudson Greene MarketTheres a fruits section, a pharmacy, all the regular utilities, groceries sans the vegetables and finally a gift shop which has greeting cards. They do have a membership account as well which gives you much better returns than Hudson Greene (again)Very clean and well maintained as well

Good choice of baby products and food. The store (not pharmacy) has issues with prices (many products have no price tags or prices are incorrect). Some cosmetics goods were past due.

This review is specific to pharmacy as aspect of the store.If you have any sort of issue with your prescription (i.e the doctor sends it over electronically and it is not showing up in their system even after several days) my recommendation is not to call and check on it. They are extremely rude and impatient over the phone. After working with the doctor’s office and having them continue to resend the prescription daily, I would call every other day to see if it was receive. No matter who I talked to, they were always very curt, uninterested and impatient. You could tell that they could careless if I received this prescription (to help with symptoms due to a brain and ovarian tumors) or not. I had to beg someone over the phone today to even give me alternative ways to have the doctor’s office to send the prescription other than electronically so that I could actually receive the prescription. She acted as though it was obvious, even though you can’t get that information via the website. These interactions have been very disappointing and disheartening. I have shopped at this place since fall of 2015.

Convenient store if you live in the surrounding apartments, as the name denotes it has a pharmacy, it also has groceries too, with a lot of healthy options especially for children.Where it goes downhill for me though is, if you are BLACK, beware, some of the male staff (to help you point them out - the ones wearing glasses and dark hair) usually decide to follow you around the store discreetly, all of a sudden they need to stack shelves near you, or decide to check expiry dates on products where you just happen to be standing. I have observed this on way toooooo many occasions for it to be a coincidence, and a few times stopped myself from actually confronting them.But listen to this, the beauty of it, i have seen two white people on different occasions do a bit of shoplifting, but hey maybe you should have been keeping your eyes on them .

Ive been using the pharmacy ever since they opened at 18 Park for prescriptions, over-the-counters and flu shots. The service has always been first rate!

Dismissive, Racist and Poor Customer Service from the Pharmacist. This is the 4th time Ive approached​ ​the Pharmacist within the store, and all 4 times theyve been unhelpful and unfriendly. This last occurrence​ was the worst Ive experienced. I went in to purchase another packet of an Over The Counter product I was sold just 4 weeks prior. An inexpensive product that I dont require a prescription for. The Chinese Dr / Pharmacist starts interrogating​ me, asking personal questions in front​ of other customers, that I didnt feel comfortable sharing publicly. He isnt my Dr, I dont require a prescription for this product. Yet, I was made to feel terrible, he then refuses to sell it to me. I feel their attitude to black customers needs to be addressed. Interestingly, my partner (who is white / Caucasian​), goes to the same Pharmacist​ and is sold that same product with no issues​!

Great pharmacy to come and pick up things that you cant find in other drugs stores. I definitely would not go anywhere else.
