This is only one of two CVS's in the area that made it to the 2.3-2.5 range and was not marked down…read morefor serious customer service issues. (Like fast food that typically sits around 2.0-3.0 stars, CVS usually has a 2-3 star rating and 1-2.2 means it's pretty bad don't go there and 2.3-3 means it's typical. Anything 3+ means it's an exceptional store and few in fast food or pharmacies have such a high score.) We have been going to this CVS for years when visiting this area. Never really had a problem buying waters, sodas, and basic medical supplies or snacks here. Primarily we just purchased convenience items, but this last time we got a prescription refilled. Would have to say that the people at the pharmacy registers did seem less competent than at CVS stores back home. The lady who helped us was ok. She did have to go fetch our prescription as it was not in the bin even though the app said it was ready. We did not have to wait long and this sometimes happens back home. The man at the register next to us seemed far less competent. Per Gemini AI, use the app, have your doc phone in a refill rather than having CVS contact your doctor for a refill, and do not bother calling CVS or waiting for a text, just check the app and/or go into the store and ask to wait for your prescription if your doc already called it nor you had refills left. We used this general procedure and got a refill next day and did not spend a lot of time at the store or have to argue with register people. Their lot is pretty big for the area. Never had trouble getting parking. Just beware that you cannot turn left on Lighthouse, so plan to turn left or right and circle back through the side streets to be able to make a right turn into the lot off of Lighthouse or from the side entrance on Prescott. Would definitely come back here for convenience items and would get prescriptions refilled here again using my own doc and the CVS app rather than relying on CVS to get it done--just go to pick up.

I really wish this Safeway would reconsider how they handle checkout in the early mornings. I…read moresometimes shop here around 6:00-6:30 a.m. before work, and it's frustrating how quickly a long line can form with only one cashier open while self-checkout is still closed. What makes it worse is that even when the line is clearly getting backed up, it can take 10-15 minutes before another employee is called up to help. At that point, several customers are already standing around waiting. A lot of people are working much earlier schedules these days, and you can tell many of the customers shopping at that hour are grabbing breakfast, lunch, drinks, or other things on their way to work. People shopping that early are usually trying to get in and out quickly. If there are enough customers consistently shopping at that hour to create a line, Safeway should either have additional cashiers scheduled so 2-3 lanes can be opened when needed, or simply allow self-checkout to open as early as 6 a.m. It would make such a big difference for early-morning customers.

For the most part, going to most any restaurant was a waste of time and money. A better choice was to let them shop and choose at Safeway and then bring it all back to the Hotel. Our choices weren't all that nutritious over all, but it did reduce the drama and later cries of "I'm Starving"! My most pleasant surprise here was that my old California land line number was still linked to the Safeway Loyalty program. Past that, the combination of an unfamiliar store, and so many choices made this Safeway trip a fairly lengthy one. And later back at the Hotel, all was well.

Noelle's Yelp Notebook 2021…read more The Quarantine Chronicles January 9, 2021 Recommended: Yes. Dear Yelp Fam, My little family decided to head down to Monterey today and check out Cannery Row. We miss going to the Monterey Bay Aquarium. Parking was easy and there were not many people out. We arrived early and spotted the 5 and Dime. I've been here before as a kid with my parents and brother. My husband, son and I stopped by. There is one entrance and one exit. There were two employees that greeted us from afar. We were just browsing. My son picked up a few items: one shark puppet one shark missile ball one gun with darts one jumbo bag of toy soldiers one shark magnet for our fridge I picked up a California Bear jute bag The 5 and Dime is awesome as you will find endless souvenirs and toys. What was impressive was their sundries aisle with medicine (headache pills, allergy medicine like Benadryl, etc.) they also had a decent selection of snacks and candies. The only issue was there were certain parts of the shop where items were dusty. It's a huge store and for the most part super organized and cleaned. During this pandemic they have sanitizers for their customers. They require mask wearing and social distancing. The prices seem fair and on par with Amazon. Amazing selection of small gift items and good customer service. Hugs, Noelle Noelle's Notes They have the a huge selection of souvenirs They have an excellent selection of OTC meds They have an excellent selection of candies & snacks
