CVS/pharmacy

Worst experience ever with the pharmacy. Stay away! Go to to Walgreens! We arrived to pick up a prescription and we were 5 minutes after the pharmacy closed due to traffic. The pharmacist knew we were from out of town and we forgot a prescription and would not fill it for us!!! She didn’t even ask what it was for!!! She couldn’t even give us another CVS location!!!
I would’ve given this location zero stars, but it’s not possible. 1 star is the lowest rating.

Friendly staff & always clean which can be difficult in a city store. Sometimes waiting for help in an aisle can take a long time even when store is not busy, but everything else is great there.

Waiting 25mins to get sudafed from the pharmacy. No one knows why there is only one person working at the pharmacy. Will avoid this place for medicine like the plague.
At least they have automated machines for normal purchases

Worst customer disservice ever.
Similar to others who have noted the tendency of employees toward laziness and apathy, when I went to check out with several items, I was the only person in line. Ashley (according to her name tag) was sweeping behind the register. I waited for a moment and asked if she would check me out. She ignored me.
Another employee told me to use the self checkout. I have never had good experiences with those. When I talked to a manager, Justanya, she was on her way out and displayed the same apathetic attitude as those she manages. Hey! At least they’re consistent! As burning world issues go, this is not a biggie. But I will definitely shop at a place that has nice people who will either help me or explain if there’s a problem. This is not that place.

The pharmacist could sense that I was in a hurry, and she offered to fill my prescription immediately without me asking (most pharmacists love to watch you in pain). Also, they let me, in fact encourage me, to bring my dog in. Love me some CVS.

Can’t beat the location — we were staying at the b2 Miami nextdoor. Prices aren’t outrageous like you would have expected in Miami.
Hours are great, they are open late!
There’s some self service lines which are nice to use when you want to get in and out but most of the people using them have no idea what to do. I much prefer someone to check me out — less trouble and less nonsense.
Good selection of sundries and the usual, even beer and wine.
This is definitely a tourist CVS, and parking nearby is difficult, unless you park under the metro (think that’s what it’s called)

I hated this CVS! They try and push you to use the self service lines because there to freaking lazy to ring you up! Every one doesn’t like the freaking self service line! Get your lazy butt over here and help customers that don’t want to use them!
Not only did this happen one time it happened every time we went in the store!

The actual address is 150 S.E. Third.
CVS has this lovely (NOT) trend of having you self check-​out — I guess to save on their already lazy staff of employees — because shopping before, during or after work in a harrassed overcrowded environment isn’t enough work — check your own self out dammit! Usually I don’t mind, but today one of the 3 self-​checkout lanes was broken and three employees were actually chatting at the register. I asked, politely, could a register be opened for me to check out with my item. One employee yawned and said she was off the clock and walked away. The other two just stared like I asked them to take off their clothes or something. I asked again and one pointed to the already CROWDED self-​checkout line and said «get in line» and actually smirked — yeah I’m the lazy f**k here, right… I just think that is pretty poor customer service; besides in downtown Miami near «quittin’ time» it’s just about the start of rush hour, employees are grabbing essentials and a passel of tourists appear to be buying their sundries as well as food items they forgot or were unable to pack. To enable a better welcoming atmosphere to your store and Miami as a whole you can’t keep an open register manned? Oh wait — that would involve thoughtful consideration and customer service and this being Miami — that wouldn’t be on the agenda.. .

I really don’t care for this CVS because it really doesn’t cater to locals and rather functions as a quick stop for tourists staying in downtown.
The place is chaotic, understaffed, and is overpriced.
And good luck parking nearby for a reasonable price — if you can even find a space.

This location is ok. No parking, so it’s only convenient if you live in or are visiting the nearby areas (i.e. bayside.) Staff is just ok too, I wouldnt say they’d go out of their way to help you, but there are always people available if you need to speak to someone. Stock on products is usually good, and they sell Miami memorabilia if you’re looking for it (tourists)

I came in here during ultra and had to wait outside till some people left. Yes. During ultra, there is a Bouncer for this store. Yes, not kidding! I wish I took a photo of it. It was nuts. Haha.
I had to get a memory card and ironically I bought one that was labeled Ultra. Lots of people were packed in there trying to buy water before going to the festival.

Best cvs in downtown the self checkouts are great, new food isles and best prices on smokes!!! Pharmacy is a dream and quick!!!

This CVS is crazy-​you could probably by a goat here in the back of the store if you wished. This place sells everything and I mean EVERYTHING. From sunscreens and flipflops to hard liquor to electronic equipment. The downside is it is ALWAYS crowded with loud, drunk/​drugged tourists and the lines are huge and no one in the store knows where anything else it is. In my opinion, the staff is slow (you know the mañana Miami attitude) but I can bring my dog in here and that is a definite plus.

Let me tell you why I love this CVS location:
1. Very friendly staff
2. I can bring my doggie in with me
3. Well stocked.
And why only 4 stars:
1. It’s always PACKED with tourists and lines can be long.

This is a very nice new CVS. Ran in the other day to pick up a few items. The layout is nice and open and very clean. Most of the sales associates were friendly and helpful. CVS, seems to be what Walgreen’s use to be. Good stock of quality items, good service, clean store, and convenient.
The best part is their store hours. Unlike Walgreen’s, they are open late. This works for me. So glad they are in the area. With so many hotels and residents in the area, this store will suit all of your needs. Check out their weekly sales, always great offers!

Nicely organized CVS and probably the better one in the area.
