11 Best drugstore in New York, New York (NY) 2024

OMG TURN DOWN THE VOLUME ON YOUR OVERHEAD SPEAKERS Started going here cause I hate the Duane Reade on John - the people that work there hate it (I blame the managers. It's always their fault if the employees are miserable) and the music is absolutely the worst in any DR in the city. I had a great experience at this CVS the first two times I went in. Today, at 7:30 in the AM, the music was blaring so loud the clerk couldn't hear me. Seriously? Why don't you just scream at everybody who comes in. Gotta find a new drugstore, again ~La

I’m not one to post, and if I could give NO STAR, I would! but this CVS is the WORST!!! They never answer the phones!! I’ve tried various times, they should at least acknowledge that someone is on hold! I’m calling on behalf of my mom. Thank God this isn’t my pharmacy. I will be reporting this to corporate and hopefully they can do something!!! ~Evangelista

Absolute dumpster fire. Things as routine as toothbrushes, hair products, and lotions and creams are behind lock and key. I literally had to ring the bell for every item. They don’t come over particularly quickly either. The pharmacy is sluggish, does not answer phone, and could not figure out my insurance, trying to charge me $1,179 for a cream. Also overly draconian about selling over the counter allergy medicine. They would not accept my Nexus Card as form of ID. If the US border can accept it in place of a passport, Walgreens sure can too. They are just rigid and like to be difficult. >20 people in check out line. I don’t understand why they don’t have self checkout like literally every other drugstore. In my estimation, I am usually in this store 20 minutes longer than I need to be. Sadly it is the closest to my home, but I now make a point of going to literally any other pharmacy while out and about in Manhattan. ~Braden

Great well stocked location for snacks and more for our family during stay in New York. Had everything we needed plus a few unexpected items like fresh fruit. ~Justin

Pharmacy manager Maknak needs to learn some decorum and provide good customer service. She acts as if she owns cvs. Someone please teach her customer service! ~Cali

I like this location. The service is consistent and the greeters are always cheerful and upbeat. They add a nice touch when you enter and exit the location. They offer a wide range of products, many of which are on sale. They also have a lot of employees around for assistance without making it feel like you're being harassed. The beauty section is also great and the workers there are friendly and helpful. They do not lock up beauty items. Everything is on display and looks great. There's a large selection and knowledgeable staff. They offer self check out kiosks which are perfect when you're in a rush. They also offer an atm which is convenient. And they have an elevator and escalators for easy access to the second floor. I like it and will continue to visit this location. ~Sam

A CVS store situated inside a historical building on the national register of historic places. The building was completed in 1897, and the location used to be the New York Savings Bank, but was later taken over by a carpet company and finally CVS moved in in 2010. Now you can shop in possibly what is one of the grandest CVS stores in New York! ~Chengxiang

They could have better service, non the less this Rite aid sells pretty much everything!! ~Moshe

Was harassed by employee during check out. Manager stood by and did not intervene. Will not be coming back to this location. ~Alessia

Open 24/7 convenient store but many health and Care products out of stock currently ~Cédric
