Walgreens

I recommend you check out their liquor store next door, best prices on the beach especially Milagros tequila. The line isn’t ever too bad, old pharmacist doc is a cool guy too, funny.

I am really upset with this business. They put on my prescription that I have 1 refill left, but have it in their computer that I have none left, and when I used the automated refill system, it was never communicated to me that it wouldn’t be ready to pick up. Ultimately, I was denied the prescription and told to contact my doctor over THEIR data entry mistake.
One extra star for the staff acting professionally and for the great pharmacist with the white hair — he’s not the one who messed this up. But minus three stars for leaving my life at risk, and for the terrible lighting.

Sometimes cvs doesn’t have everything … Alba papaya face mask is available at walgreens but not cvs. so i come here to get this mask.

They lost my pictures they were supposed to develop. I kept calling them to see if they came later and no one there is helpful. Its one thing if they lost the pictures, things happen and life moves on. But no one there will accept responsibility. This place is run like a hobby business. Other than that experience, most of the people there were pretty friendly who worked there.
The liquor store next door has great prices. But you’ll be hassled by the homeless crew that crowds around its doors.

I’m not a fan of this Walgreens. There’s always an extra-​long line, since it’s so convenient to those traveling to and from the Beach via 5^th Street (and 395). But I am a BIG fan of the adjoining liquor store, and the big free parking lot.
There’s always a tasting of some new-​ish liquor product, but even though the place is so small, it’s never forced upon you. They always have sales on one or another big-​name liquor, and you can often find the 1.75L of Ketel One for $ 35. Perfect for stocking up for that little weekend shindig you’re planning on hosting!
The selection of mixers isn’t always the greatest, but you can always find club soda or tonic, and they even have limes at the front (usually 3 for $ 1). There’s a decent selection of wines, as long as you’re not looking for something super-​specific. Beer offerings are of the normal drugstore-​variety. They also have a rather large selection of mini bottles, in case you’re looking for that sorta thing.

Crowded isles, slow pharmacy, and a constant slow line at the registers have caused me to cross this place from my list of drug stores. The liquor store attached is clean and well lit, but the people asking for money out front make entering and exiting a bit of a nuisance as more than once the beggar has become a little aggressive. There are plenty of other places to get what you need on the beach. Go there instead.

The usual bunch of weirdo characters seems to frequent this Walgreens, as with most Miami-​area Walgreens locations.
It’s a super-​convenient place to grab some Smart Water before hitting up Abraxas, because let’s face facts, you want to stay hydrated and get your electrolytes.
I was a little annoyed that the cashier was constantly pushing customers to donate $ 1 to some charity. Aren’t businesses aware that donating is a personal decision, and that initiatives like this just annoy and piss people off? Oh well, at least the cashier dude spoke adequate English and kept the line moving. The lines at some Walgreens locations are nightmarish, so I was happy to find that I didn’t have to wait 10 minutes to buy a bottle of water and chewing gum.

It does the job. I definitely feel like it’s dirty in here and I can’t figure out why, but it’s good for a quick stop and they’re pretty on-​top of the RX refills if you call ahead. The line is usually a bit long, but they’re fast about the service and there’s a liquor store attached, which is always a good thing when you don’t want to pay the prices at the independent liquor stores on the Beach (who usually charge you your first born).
As other reviewers mentioned, free parking and plenty of it, but always some kind of sketchy characters hanging around. They also have the puppy vaccinations here a few times a month, but I’m not 100% sure when, so call to find out.

This location is designed with the tourist in mind. Several aisles packed with an assortment of Miami Beach souvenirs and sunscreen. For us locals who actually need «self-​tanner» though you are out of luck. Also, the selection on regular drug store items like hair accessories, body lotions, and soaps was dismal. I’m sticking to my neighborhood Walgreens or Target for stocking up, but this place will do in a pinch and if I happen to be on South Beach.
One bonus is that it has an adjoining liquor store. Come here for liquor and buy your wine and beer elsewhere (like at the Publix down the block) because the selection is very minimal.

Standard typical drug store. The pharmacists are nice and my Rx has always been ready when promised. They also fill prescriptions pretty quickly if you just want to wait. They have a pretty good stock of items here. The check out is usually pretty quick and painless. This is usually my go to drugstore if I need something in a pinch. They have a large private lot. Watch out though, sometimes the crazies hang out at the entrance…
