Walgreens

Cannot speak to their pharmacy, but I enjoy coming to the story to buy cosmetic products. Their range is much better than the CVS and their prices seem to be lower (but not as low as Walmart or Kroger, which are at least a couple dollars lower). The cosmetics staff is friendly and helpful. They have a ton of lines, including the iman and queen collections, which is nice and can be harder to find in drug stores. This area is also well-​stocked, well-​lit, uncluttered, and clean. It’s really easy to shop here.

I seriously get anxiety every time I have to deal with this pharmacy. I have never once been able to just pick up a medicine, whether it’s 6am or 11pm, some drama is always sure to arise. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else.

It use to be good pharmacy, but no more, its full of crap and bad service, very rude staff. The night shift were teo African Anerican guys not in drug area but general check out were laughing at me for my look and giggling .
The prescription pick up was good in last two years but now extremly bad. They tell you, come pick up your prescption in 5 mins, when you go even after 30 mins its not ready. Its bad bad and I do not recommend it, avoid it !!!

One word, ghettoville! What happened?!? I need my old walgreens and its staff back! Grrrrrrrrr!!!

I absolutely cannot understand how a pharmacy can be so careless and irresponsible. I have left my prescription here a few times and every single time I have experienced the worst service. They can’t follow simple instructions like «don’t give me all of the medicine on the prescription» after indicating which one my Dr. Wanted me to start with. It’s always a mess and it is unsafe because they can even give you the wrong things— that’s how careless they are. I am not returning!!!

They have a good little supply of office supplies. Picked up a reem of paper for a good price. Haven’t been here in a while. They renovated the place. Looks pretty good and much more spacious. I usually just stop by for the Redbox

I’ve always liked this Walgreens location. They have a very friendly and helpful staff, they have an extensive greeting card and gift card selection, and I’ve never waited long at the pharmacy. I had my Christmas cards printed here last year and it was fast and easy and the cards came out great.

As the saying goes… been to one Walgreens been to them all. That’s not exactly correct when it comes to this location. For openers this location is open 24 hours. Not only is the store open 24 hours but the pharmacy is also staffed 24 hours. With hours like this it makes it easier for me to be work a visit into my crazy schedule. I can stop in here to pick up just about anything I need from personal items to having a prescription filled.
Secondly, this location went through a minor ‘make-​over’ a few months back. As a result it has an very nice open feel to it which makes navigating through the store a lot easier. Going from the entrance to the pharmacy is mostly a straight line whereas previously it was more of zigzag.
This location can be quite busy so going during ‘off hours’ allows me to avoid the lines that can be long at times.
Thankfully at the main checkout counter they do a good job managing the lines by opening additional registers when necessary. Unfortunately they are unable to do this in the pharmacy area (due to space and number of pharmacists on staff) so depending on the time of day, that line can become quite long. This said, they do a great job of working with each customer to address their needs.

What a mess. This is one of the worst Walgreens. Not in terms of gross, because it is surprisingly clean and organized. It is just awful because the people that run the pharmacy are incredibly bad at it. They are so slow. They make more mistakes than any place I have seen. They don’t follow up on things they say they will do. It just awful. I have not just had one bad isolated incident. Every single time I go here there is drama. There is no such thing as «in and out». Even simple things like picking up medicine takes over an hour. On one visit an old man walked right through 10 people in line and started cussing out the staff because they made him wait for so long in the drive thru. I cannot even tell you how amazed I am at just how incompetent this place is. Sometimes I will call in a refill and then not hear anything until I get there to pick it up and they say they never got the request. Other times they will call me and say I have a refill ready to pick even though I had not called anything in. I follow up only to find it was a false alarm. This happens all the time! They will also «lose» your insurance. Mine has been the same for years, but they cannot seem to keep in in their computer system.
They get one star for running a great store and zero stars for running an awful pharmacy.

Nice and clean store! Pharmacy is busy but I plan my time accordingly. Good staff, they take care of my scripts and I get them on time. Thanks pharmacy team.

Called in a simple ZPak & took them 11 hours to fill it on a Sunday. I hope CVS across the street does a better job!

If you need a quick place to park, just go buy a $ 2 bottle of wine. Yep, you heard that right, $ 2! It’s not the best, but it’s pretty good and will do in a pinch.
The staff here is also amazingly friendly. They greet you with a, «hello» and a smile every time. They ask if you need help, and the store has just about anything you need.

Still on a quest for my grandmothers pain ointment. According to the Walgreens webpage this place has it. I called to verify and the pharmacist told me she’d have to get someone else to check. I’m like – you are standing in the pharmacy – it’s on the shelf RIGHTTHERE – just look. She said no, she would call and colleague and put me on hold. I’ve been on hold for going on 15 minutes. Every five it rings back through and someone picks it up and puts me right back on hold.
Seriously – I hate all pharmacies now. I’m going to Preston Road Pharmacy.

Worst pharmacy! Do not go here!!! Waited 30 mins 3 seperate times in the drive thru for a simple pick up. Also elected their auto refill program via phone and it was not ready the following month. Went to pick up meds that were supposed to be ready yesterday and the pharmacist hadn’t filled it. Moving all prescriptions to CVS across the street.

The people who work here are very nice, but the pharmacy is completely understaffed. Whether you go inside or through the drive-​thru, you will wait at least 30 minutes, sometimes even longer. Also, every time I’ve tried to print photo cards, I’ve been told the machine isn’t working even though I received an email saying my project was ready. They always say a technician is coming to fix the machine, but the machine is never fixed. One would think it would be better after the renovation, especially considering a new CVS is across the street, but these issues continue. I do not recommend this Walgreens unless you enjoy long lines.

Prepare to sit in line at the pharmacy inside or outside no matter what time of day for at least 30 – 45 minutes. I have used this pharmacy for over a year and have never had a quick or easy experience.

Ever since they remodeled the store, things have gone from bad to worse, and FAST. They hired the most inefficient idiots on the planet to staff the pharmacy. They drag their feet and seem to constantly be bogged down with complicated orders. My average wait time in line has been upwards of 45 minutes, which is the last thing I want to do after teaching a late spin class and not being able to eat dinner until getting my RX.
If this store or company knew anything, they would have at least one or two express lanes at the pharmacy so people whose things are READY can quickly get in and out. We shouldn’t have to wait for hours for people trying to redeem expired coupons or asking twenty questions and also trying to buy wine, toilet paper and God knows what else. The drive thru line isn’t any better and it’s the same 2 – 3 idiots staffing in-​store and drive-​thru customers.
I’m switching asap to CVS so I don’t have to waste another hour of my life waiting to pick up so-​called ready prescriptions.

I’ve lived in the area for a year and I visit this Walgreens often. Before tonight, I’ve never had an experience particularly bad or great, just functional. Unfortunately, tonight changed that.
I stopped by at 11:45pm with my date to pick up beer before heading home. After standing in line for a couple of minutes It was my time to check out. The cashier, who was very friendly and professional, called for his manager. Not really sure why, we waited, and waited. The line started to grow. Finally, I asked him what we were waiting on. He explained that he was under 21 and couldn’t sell alcohol. I thought that was odd, but no big deal. We kept waiting, and line grew to six people. After three or four minutes and multiple attempts to get his manager to the front, he asked if I would step aside and let him help the others until his manager got there. I said okay. The only problem, the guy behind me was buying alcohol too.
After explaining the situation again, he did his best to keep us calm but the guy behind me wasn’t having it. He starting walking around the store looking for the manager with no luck. Finally, I decided to leave along with a couple of others waiting in line.
What really bothered me is that this manager would put a cashier unable to sell alcohol by himself at 11:45pm. Then, completely disregard his attempts to get the manager to come to the front (he probably called six times). Again, the cashier was great and did everything he could to remedy the situation but the disappearing act by the manager was totally unacceptable. So if you’re the manager of this store, know that the manager on duty the night of 10÷9÷14 put their employee in a terrible situation and created a bad experience for several customers, including myself. I guess the only positive is that the CVS a block away will open soon.

The rule of thumb for whenever I need anything on the road is: Find a Walgreen’s. While meandering about in Dallas, I managed to come across this one with some stellar things to report:
* Excellent customer service. They dealt with our cluelessness as we roamed the aisles. We felt infinitely more stupid when the items we needed were literally in front of us the whole time.
* Lines be gone: I hate lines. And because I somehow came at a time where there might’ve been a water shortage or some sort of mass lunch errand, I was seeing lines of 5 – 7 people. Thankfully they had enough on staff to break the line apart to keep things moving. I like where this is going already.
* All day, all night: My favorite stat line of them all — 24 hours. This includes the pharmacy apparently, which means I can score a prescription at like 2am? Thank you late night gods.
* Lookin good: The place is clean and well organized. Even the bathroom (which an employee kindly let me use) was sparkling clean. Why can’t all Walgreen’s be this good? Big ups to the endless stream of greeting cards for all occasions.
5 stars to this dynamite location!

This Walgreens is da bomb. I’ve been here a few times in the past few weeks and it’s done me right. I’ve gotten into it with folk at other Walgreens and argued to death with CVS people. But this location seems to keep the drama to a minimum. +5 stars for that.
But hey, ya need a prescription filled? Duh, they hookin’ you up. You need a flu shot? *BAM* you got one. You need smokes, condoms, candy, windex, nutrigrain bars, a hair brush, Swedish fish and panty hose? *BOOM* you good.
And yeah, it’s uptown so yeah, it’s gonna be full of good lookin’ folk. Haaaay.
