Bridge Apothecary

I shop here with my bf we have a friend who lives nearby very nice pharmacy gift store sure beats city chemist in the heights, much nicer staff & gift selections get treated much nicer happy new year & thanks for such excellent service will look forward to be back thank you again do a better job.

I stopped in to pick up a birthday card which was priced like anything purchased in Brooklyn — way more than it’s value. To be honest, the next time I need to buy some gift cards, I’ll probably just buy from Amazon.
Not a fan.

This place is terrible. The pharmacist is a narcissistic douche bag who types away at his computer and then tells the customer to come over to him to drop off a prescription.
The clerks are zombies. Today I saw a plastic bottle stuck under the door, and the clerk kicked it out into the street. I said, «that’s one way to deal with it». I was then treated like public enemy no. 1. Wake up and smell the cat food, this neighborhood has changed. We expect more…

Literally NEVER open on time. Not once. You can put money on the door being locked 30 minutes after posted opening time. I’d love to speak to the owner — I wonder if he knows or cares.

This review is specifically for the pharmacy. I could kick myself for wasting so much wait time and energy at the Walgreens near my apartment, when I could’ve been filling my prescriptions easy breezy just a half block from my office in DUMBO. The staff are friendly and efficient — no insane lines or cranky apathetic pharmacists. Will never go back to a chain pharmacy for scripts again — would rather support local business!

fantastic, knowledgable pharmacy that will go through hoops to get what you need, when you need it, where you need it. pharmacists have often provided helpful advice on options and pricing for prescriptions. kind and discrete, with great taste in music, picking up anything here is always a great experience. they keep good products stocked and will get anything in for you by the afternoon if they don’t have it on the shelves. Bridge Apothecary has the best of established professionalism and small business charm and personalization. highly recommended!

Best. pharmacy. ever. My first time here, the guy said «we take care of our people» and it couldn’t be more true. Fast, attentive and personalized service.

I really wish they did automatic refills like CVS, or some way of reminding me when it’s near the end of the month. Also, a couple of times they’ve made a mistake filling my prescription and now I always open the bottle before I leave. On the plus side, they’re pretty nice.

Refreshing to get prescriptions filled by a friendly guy in a sweater and jeans. No white coats or long waits here, and there are so many interesting things to browse on the shelves, a 5 min wait passes quickly.
I couldn’t find the pharmacy hours posted anywhere online, so I called and here they are, as of Feb 21, 2015:
M-​F 9 – 7
Sat 10 – 6
Sun closed.

Bridge Apothecary seems TO ME to be your average pharmacy with a few added knick knacks thrown in.
Like I said on my picture, it’s a little dark inside but it may only appear that way as I came in from the sunlight. Beautiful day today innit!
The Chemist (though I had no interactions with him) seemed nice and informative as I listened to his exchange with another customer.
At this time (11:59am on a Tuesday), they were very quiet with only myself and the other customer.
Nothing out of the ordinary, untoward or significant to add to this review.
The End.

Great place that stocks not-​your-​typical DR goods. Unique wrapping paper, gift bags, creative cards and even a good selection of little gifts. Pharmacy staff is really helpful as well.

Terrific place to get prescriptions filled. Leave a credit card on file, call when you need a refill, and it’s delivered within hours.

I was walking by this store today and was drawn inside by the nice card display. They have a *really* lovely selection of cards, in addition to a nice selection of beauty items and various other things. Also, there was a wonderful aroma.
The reason why I’m only giving three stars is because neither of the (two) guys at the counter said a word to me during the entire time I was there *and* they seemed really annoyed when I asked for a business card (how awful it must have been, when one of them had to exert a minuscule amount of effort to hand me the card).

Great local pharmacy with a nice range of beauty and hair products. Chris, the pharmacist, couldn’t be nicer. In an era of impersonal chain drug stores it is really nice to have one where they know your name and treat you like a person, genuinely want to know if you have questions, and offer personal service.

Awful people, awful place. Rude, lazy ass people. I’d rather die than buy and aspirin form them.

The pharmacy staff here is very nice and helpful. My only complaint is that they sometimes have to order certain prescriptions, but they can usually be available the next business day. So keep that in mind. I just go here for presecriptions so I can’t speak to any of the other amenities.

Beautiful neighborhood pharmacy.
I have never been to a neighborhood pharmacy before. Only the big corporations like CVS, Walgreens, Rite Aid and Duane Reade.
This pharmacy is great. Although it is quite small, they carry a lot of all natural products and beauty products that are not available at your typical pharmacy. They have a good selection of umbrellas, nail polish, and facial masks. Although DUMBO unnecessarily overpriced, you can find some pretty good deals here.
Its also in a great location, half a block from transportation!

Huge selection, beautifully stocked and organized shelves. I’m a bit of an office supplies geek, so I was happy to find a strong selection of Mead notebooks here. I also found the staff super friendly, patient, and private. I was having a loud phone call (rude of me, I know) and they acted as though I was whispering.

Super friendly help, if just a tad slow in filling orders. Still they will deliver.
The isles are stocked with tons of great pharmacy needs, everything from the standard chemicals and ointments shilled by the FDA, as well as more «hippie-​friendly» alternatives shilled by god only knows who. Basically, something for everyone sold in a pleasant store filled with pleasant employees.

I have never lived in a place where there is not a CVS, Duane Reade or Walgreens within .01 miles. Come to think of it, I don’t think anyone has. I don’t think it is possible unless you live in DUMBO. Enter Bridge Apothecary — all the amenities, none of the corporate branding.
The store is packed with everything you could need and they have a nice selection of products in every area. The staff is friendly and the store is extremely manageable. You don’t have to go down aisle after aisle only to discover that the thing you were looking for is not on the placard — you can just look and find it pretty quickly here or ask.
You only realize how necessary a local pharmacy/​drug store is when you think that there isn’t one where you live and you walk all the way back to your old neighborhood just to go to the same CVS you always used to go to only to walk past this place the next day.*
