City View Pharmacy

I am always greeted with a smiling hello by the staff at this pharmacy — it has a real «homey» feeling to it. The pharmacy staff is helpful in navigating insurance and the free delivery anywhere in the 5 boroughs cannot be beat. With the huge chain pharmacies in NYC that feel like impersonal cattle calls to get medication, you should definitely check out City View instead.

fantastic service and precise attention to details, especially regarding prescriptions. And FREE delivery!

I’ve been refilling my prescriptions with these pharmacy for years and I love this place, they do anything possible to make sure you are happy with their service, they deliver to all 5 boroughs and you can expect your prescriptions the same day. I love you guys, thank you for making everything nice and easier for me

This is an outstanding pharmacy for several reasons. First of all THEY DELIVER (free delivery) all over Queens! Since I am disabled it’s always a big production to get my medicine but this pharmacy delivers right to my front door and they accept credit cards. Also what I only just realized since I have been using City View, I now realize how much Duane Reade has been overcharging me for the same medications for years! Also City View will deliver herbal teas and other stuff they carry. It has been a lifesaver for me and I highly recommend them!

I just moved to a new apartment literally right next door. And I’m used to using large pharmacies that are part of Duane Reade or CVS. So this was a change for me. But I was very much pleasantly surprised by this small pharmacy. They have such an amazing variety of products they sell over the counter as well as fun toys and random gift items/​cards. The staff is super friendly and always willing and eager to help me. I haven’t had one bad experience here and look forward to continuing to use them as my local pharmacy! I would suggest this place to anyone in the area. Not to mention they deliver to your door your prescriptions if you live a bit farther away! Never going back to big pharmacies. I much prefer City View and it feels like a family there! They are even willing to call your doctor or an urgent care if your prescription isn’t going through and speak with your doctors directly! Definitely 5 stars (I wish I could put more)!!

Amazing customer service from everyone especially Ana. She went above and beyond to prepare a «basket» of cold/​flu supplies to be delivered and kept me looped into the process by calling me and telling me what was included in the basket. She even placed a few items that I didn’t think of, which was great! Very fast and friendly service!

They totally saved the day for me. I was on a trip and the wifey got sick. I found City View by googling «NYC pharmacy delivery.» Called ‘em up and they delivered Nyquil, echinacea tea, cough drops and more to our apartment within a couple hours. The delivery would have arrived even sooner, but I told them to hold off for a couple hours since the wife had just gone back to bed. Five enthusiastic stars to City View, the super helpful lady who answered the phone there, and whoever delivered the meds to my lady while it was freezing cold and snowing outside!

Wanted to support a local business. Went here to fill a prescription for Percocet (I had broken a tooth and came directly from my dentist.) The pharmacist told me they had none in stock and it would be 5 – 6 days to fill the script. ! Obviously they couldn’t be bothered verifying my prescription.

I agree with the other positive reviews. I’m so glad there’s not a chain pharmacy in our neighborhood, and we have City View.
The people are so friendly, they always get things right and they take care to make sure we understand what we’re taking/​getting. If there’s a mixup or misunderstanding with the doctor, they resolve it with them as your advocate.
The other day, my wife was sick while I was at work and they ran over, in a nasty rain storm, just some inexpensive over-​the-​counter meds for her, left them with the doorman and trusted us to pay them back later (which we, of course, did ;-)). I was touched at what a nice gesture that was and it sealed the deal with me.
I love these folks.

Great place; responsible, flexible, always on time and professional.

I’ve only had good experiences with Cityview Pharmacy. The staff is friendly and knowledgable. Prescriptions are filled quickly and with a smile.

I love this place. The staff there is SO friendly! They are very welcoming when you come in. There have been a few occasions where I had questions about my medication or side effects, and they are really helpful. Never had my meds delivered, but I would trust them. When I was on antibiotics, the owner said «be careful, that stuff will mess with your birth control. If you can’t be careful, name the baby after me» Amazing!

I just moved to the neighborhood a couple of weeks ago from Boston and I’m so glad I decided to go with City View instead of continuing with CVS. I’m still on my old insurance until my new one kicks in so it was not as simple but Harry was extremely helpful and welcoming. It’s the little things like this that make you feel at home. Local businesses add so much more charm to a neighborhood.

I cannot believe the reviews about cityview!
Are they written by there own employees?
I’ve joined cityview 2 yrs ago after coming
highly recommended from my physician and ended our
Relationship December, 2012. For 2years it
has been nothing but a headache for me.
Medicines are never delivered on time which messes up my insurance. Other people’s prescriptions have arrived attached to mine. They blow up my phone for delivery even after I’ve emailed and called them to let them know I will not be home.
And never has my mess arrived with the complete order, always a prescription here and then the other upto 2 weeks later. Mind you I am a great customer for them taking almost 30 prescriptions per month totaling almost 50k a year for them. And the final straw was even after I called and cancelled them out in December. They decided they would continue to fill my prescriptions and charge my insurance company which left me with no mexi action for the beginning of February because noone would fill my prescriptions because according to the logs they have already been filled because. It’s kew charged them already but never bother to call or send me my meds.

City View is pretty much the cat pajamas! I went to them after leaving cvs (who treated me like I had the plague for 2 years). It has been the absolute best experience in the world. They are friendly, helpful, fast and amazing at communicating with you. I would recommend that everyone in Astoria use City View!

I’ve been shopping at Rite Aid for awhile now to get my basic items. But on my last recent trip, I noticed that all three items I bought (varied from make-​up removal to heel pads) cost about $ 4.79 each. I guess it’s just some magic number Rite Aid conjured up to charge customers. But the price was a little outrageous, so I finally mustered up the courage to step outside my comfort zone and try a local pharmacy. Thanks to the reviews of local Unilocalers, I was able to find City View, which offers a great selection of personal care items. I found most items to be slightly cheaper or similar prices compared to Rite Aid. Definitely recommend this place!

City View is a great local pharmacy. The employees are so friendly and eager to help. Such a great neighborhood spot that really makes you feel like a part of the Astoria community.
It doesn’t as big of a selection of products as your standard Rite Aid or CVS, but it is great for picking up all of your basics. Plus, if there is something particular you really want, they will order it to the store for you! The prices are sometimes a little more expensive than other pharmacies, but I usually don’t mind paying the extra few cents here because I really love this place. (And that’s coming from a girl who is super cost conscious!) They also have a random assortment of cute gift baskets and baby products!
When I recently had my prescription filled here the pharmacist Harry was so helpful. The prices for prescriptions are the same as any other pharmacy. I will definitely be exclusively filling my prescriptions here from now on.

I’m so impressed with City View! Try them out; you won’t be let down. In fact, I’m so happy with the service, their investment in the community and the atmosphere, I forewent my company’s ‘order by mail’ program, even though the cost is lower than using a pharmacy. This is a case where supporting local business makes a difference in both the community and in my own experience. Thanks, City View!

I refuse to walk into a Rite Aid and a CVS pharmacy after walking into City View Pharmacy.
City View pharmacy is a local pharmacy with a selection of over the counter medication (Tylenol, Advil, Mucinex, etc). In addition to that, City View provides Greeting Cards and toys for kids. This place saved me MANY times when I needed that last minute Happy Birthday Card.
The owners and employees of City View Pharmacy are helpful, knowledgeable, and extremely friendly. They will treat you like family and they will not judge you.
The best part is that they speak different languages in there so a language barrier will not be an issue for some individuals.
They have a mailing list that you can join to get offers or what their store is selling for the season (i.e: Back To School, Summer items, Graduation Season, etc).
Another positive aspect that I fully admirable is that the owners are charitable. They always have a drive going on during the holiday season like canned food drive or even a toy drive.
If I could give more stars, I would.

In an area inundated with CVS and RiteAide type pharmacies, it’s refreshing to find a local choice like City View in Astoria. They’re flexible with various plans (medicaid, etc.) and are one of the few I’ve countered that offer delivery as well.
Until Zyrtec became OTC, this was one of the only places I’d go to get my prescription filled. Coming here was such a breeze compared to other pharmacies because they were quick, friendly, and more than helpful. The person to speak to there is Nick, the friendliest person on the phone and in person. He’s been polite and courteous every time, it’s because of people like him there are return customers.
I’m quite fortunate to not have to go to the doctor much or depend on any type of medicine to go about my day. If my lifestyle revolved around popping pills or refilling prescriptions, then this place would be the highlight every time.
