Boots

This Boots branch isn’t very large, and when it gets busy, the place can be rather jam-​packed (especially during lunch hour). It’s next door a Sainsbury Central, and is opposite the Holborn tube station — which is a big plus if you’re on your way somewhere.
Despite being a small branch, it does have a pharmacy. Besides the usual medicine and ointments, the branch also the staple beauty products and foodstuff. If I recall correctly, the combol meal deal and 5-​meals-​1-​free in a month meal deal do apply in this store, but the good stuff is often gone after lunch time.
Good enough for most of the stuff you’d want from Boots, but you might need to go to a bigger one for a larger selection and the best deals.

This is a small branch of Boots which is mostly devoted to sandwiches and snacks, and has a pharmacy which is really useful.
There isn’t a great range of other goods, but most of the basics you’d want to buy in Boots are here.
The queues to pay can sometimes be long as the store is on a busy part of Kingsway right next to a number of bus stops.
The staff aren’t always particularly welcoming and can be downright grumpy at times.
Good for the basics or in an emergency, but not if you’re looking for something out of the ordinary.

A busy branch, this boots store has is ¹⁄₃ sandwiches and snacks etc (including a good selection of meal deal items) ¹⁄₃ chemist, including a pharmacy and ¹⁄₃ toiletries, make up, suncream etc. A good mix and in an emergency they always have something that will do. They also have a good selection of offers on, but the items in these often sell out before the end of the day.
