CVS

Had everything you could need on vacation and slightly cheaper than Walgreens. all in all worth the extra few steps.

We were looking for some styrofoam coolers for the beach, and this was the only place that carried it. It was expensive (~$ 7) for what it was, but worth every penny! My friend Marco’s favorite place around! (he carried the cooler all around town!)

This CVS is conveniently located on Lincoln Road between Washington and Collins, just 1.5 blocks away from the public beach entrance. The store is huge compared to most other CVS stores I’ve been in. They have all your standard drugstore offerings. Their food section is slightly larger than most other stores and offers a wide variety of snacks and prepared foods (sandwiches, sushi, etc.), as well as beer and wine, which makes it a great place to stop on your way to the sand. They even sell Krispy Kreme donuts which is a win in my book!
This store has almost everything you would need for a nice day at the beach. The store obviously carries your standard beach essentials like sunblock, but also sells lots of clothing options like t-​shirts, cover-​ups, and hats, in case you forgot anything back home. You can even grab a beach chair if it’s what you need!
The staff is friendly and always willing to lend a helping hand. There are only a few registers with employees, but there are 6 or 8 express checkout lanes to make life easier. The store is surprisingly clean given the traffic it receives daily, especially from people coming off the beach. Lastly, this location also has a Minute Clinic. I’ve never used this one personally but always see people (both tourists and locals) there waiting.

This Cvs is in a great location and has refrigerated items that you can buy conveniently.

One of the nicest CVS’s I’ve been to. It is really big and clean despite the crowds coming in from Lincoln Rd. the register lines move really quickly. The self check out makes things go quick. There is a nice grocery section with fresh fruit, as well.
We came in a couple of times to get gallons of water to replenish what we were sweating out. The Miami heat in July is brutal.

Massive. All that i need for holiday. Food, toiletries, sunscreen etc. conveniently located near hotels, shopping & beach!

Sharon the minute clinic nurse was rude, aggressive and condescending when faced with Minute Clinic questions (which were not even directed at her). Was told repeatedly that this is a touristy store as a way to brush off my inquiries — I live here.
Pharm staff only slightly less rude.

This place is huge. I’m only rating this place cause it’s so huge.
They didn’t really have more items than a normal sized CVS, but this place is so big that you feel in awe of it and have to tell the folks back home.
This should be in the top 20 places to visit in Miami on tripadvisor.

A co-​worker told me about the clinic in this CVS and how effective it was. After coming down with a common cold and not being able to beat it with over the counter medicine, I decided to put myself out of my own misery and get some medical help.
I arrived at the clinic pretty early, signed in and waited about 15 minutes. The nurse practitioner was very knowledgeable. She gave me a quick check up, and was able to give me a diagnosis within minutes. She prescribed a medication, and recommended several over the counter medicines. Everything she told me to take worked like magic! Within hours I was feeling so much better.
I will never wait weeks to see a doctor. It’s good to know, that if I have minor health issue I can go to this clinic and get treated right away. Very satisfied with their services! Thank you CVS!

Minute clinic in CVS AWSOME for the small emergency or flu shots.
My husband went to this clinic in CVS last week. He had had a Sinus infection, then chest cold leaving him with pain and pressure in his ear.
Finally, After seeing an ad we decided to try it. Located in the back near the pharmacy easy to get to. We used the touch pad to sign in,
He had a short wait while one person went ahead of him.
The very nice nurse practitioner saw him. She looked in his ear then used an instrument and checked behind the eardrum to determine there we no infection just fluid trapped. Leading him out to locate the appropriate
Medication he needed. Telling him to return in several days if it didn’t work.
It is working so we may not to need to go back.
No payment needed when using the Medicare card! or insurance. Just credit card back up. Very impressed, and we feel relief knowing we have someplace clean and convenient for illness or minor injury.

Score! Had a runny nose and needed the good tissues with lotion rather than the sandpaper my hotel provided me. Tried the Walgreens and they wanted $ 3 for a box. Got lucky that this CVS had a generic box on sale for $ 0.99!

Good customer service, 24hrs, clean, nice staff

Clean, well-​lit, organized shelves, no crap lying on the floor, merchandise not stacked to the ceiling. Staff is really helpful and friendly. Tons of tourist though! A much better choice than the Walgreen’s across the street always a mess and no customer service skills.

If you’re looking at this before about trip planning good on you. Down a couple blocks is Walgreens, DONT GO THERE. They have way higher prices for beer, wine, and water.
Still this place costs more than grabbing your beer and snacks at the 7 – 11 next door. If you do go here get a CVS card and scan for coupons. I understand why the prices here are high but if you are here on vacation or even business every penny you save you can put toward something awesome.

These cheap chemists/​supermarkets/​drug stores that seem to be EVERYWHERE in the US are fab!
So handy and they seem to be on EVERY corner!

Went into a blind-​rage the other night trying to buy a six-​pack of beer. Yes, I know you can’t buy beer after midnight here but …
1) they do not have any sort of signage to remind you of that or let the many many tourists know. (unlike at Walgreens)
2) I was in line by 11:45. All I wanted in the whole wide world was a beer after a VERY long day of work, but of course the cashiers were idiots and took their sweet time, and refused to ask a manager for help, and by the time it was my turn it was after midnight and they wouldn’t sell me the beer. Meanwhile, at least 6 different employees must have walked by me, to do god knows what — cause they certainly weren’t helping out the overwhelming line vs. incompetent cashier situation, and didn’t mention to me that I know might not have the opportunity to purchase the only thing that I had in my arms.
I do not lose my temper very often, yet when I got up to the cashier and he looked at me like I was an idiot and I didn’t know if he wanted to see my id or what and then very slowly told me how sorry he was, I went into a cursing fit and walked out because I couldn’t handle the idiocy of the people/​customer service in this store.
I realize this makes me sound like some sort of raging angry alcoholic, but it wasn’t my first time waiting in a huge ass line at this store for non-​alcoholic items also. Additionally, FORGET about trying to get someone to open any sort of security door to buy razors or whatever other «expensive» item they deem shoplift-​worthy. It will take 20 minutes minimum to find an employee even if you go hunting around the store for them yourselves.
WORST CVS EVER.

Two stars cause of the large variety they display. But customer service is horrible. Out of all the cvs stores I’ve been too even when cvs use to be called Arbor drug store, from east to west coast this store lacks customer service! If u can’t find something ur out of luck. When u need to cash out I recommend you bring a book to read cause you’ll be in line waiting and waiting… Sad but true!

Yes they’ve got EVERYTHING under the sun. Yes they are open 24 hours. But the ridiculously long lines and very poor customer service cancel that out. The 3^rd star is because the pharmacists are nice

This was the most insane CVS I have ever been to. It was filled with tchotchkes and touristy crap, probably due to its location. Stopped in here to pick up some Red Bull and postcards and ended up falling in love with my cashier, Xiomara, the Royal Queen Supreme of CVS land. (See Pictures)

The actual CVS itself is always a mad house because it’s on Lincoln Road. That being said, they have a massive selection for a CVS. They have lots of random beach stuff, groceries, definitely cater to tourists. They usually do a good job moving the line here. Some less than stellar specimens of humanity tend to frequent here, so mind yourself.
The thing this CVS really has going for it is my quick tip:
Minute clinic here is great for minor illness/​immunization needs! Cheap services, even if you don’t have insurance.
Check my review for the minute clinic itself, I gave them 5 stars.
