I came in to get some lip balm due to suffering from chapped lips, I was able to find what I was looking for, and the staff seemed friendly with fast service at the checkouts, and help to find the product I was looking for. (Impressive as the checkout area was only small, given the size of the store and the fact there are no self-service checkouts) As a small store, the selection is limited but is decently stocked given their size. Due to the size of the store, the facilities are limited compared to what one would expect from Boots, and offers the bare minimum, while also shutting earlier than other nearby locations, at 6 pm. 3* - OK, good location but much better pharmacies nearby from Boots and rival brands.

This one seems to be different though, having a wide range of health and beauty products arranged within what I consider to be a larger than average store (for it's type and ruling out the likes of Boots). The staff are polite, considerate and helpful, seemingly having a good rapport with their more regular clients. Yet even with me, an irregular visitor they seem to have an easy way about them that puts you at your ease if you're seeking advice or simply pleasant enough to briefly pass the time of day with as you make your purchase. The store itself is clean, and well presented with lots of open space which seems to be such a rare commodity in small shops these days as the owners attempt to squeeze every penny out of every square inch.

They cover all the basic pharmacy items and, although not overwhelmingly friendly, we're courteous enough. Because of the Royal Mile location and because I would think they are an independent pharmacy, their prices were quite a bit higher than the Boots around the corner. Their package of 16 paracetamol was £0.55 here, whereas Boots' were only £0.16. That said, it is convenient and handy if you need to stop in here, and it didn't seem unsafe at all to me despite what the other reviewer said.

On a recent visit when I nipped in for a pack of chewing gum, the various foul smelling, painfully thin and toothless characters waiting at the counter told me what that dark secret was. Despite the pleasant exterior, the lather large amount of skagheads that visit this pharmacy for their weekly methodone hit makes it a virtual no-go area at certain times of the day. I've worked on The Royal Mile for about six or seven weeks now, and have already seen two rather sizeable, drink and drug fuelled brawls outside. It really is quite astounding that the powers that be send the junkies here, to the city's main tourist thoroughfare, for their pick-me-up. Given that heroin addicts aren't known for their early morning "rise and shine" attitudes, as long as you get here before 1pm you'll be alright, and will find a quite lovely little outlet for all your pharmaceutical needs.

They do have a really good variety of products, and this store in particular is a good size. Given its location though, near a Semi Chem (cheap), Lush (pricy but EPIC) and a Boots (expensive and reliable) I'm not sure what sort of place there is for this store, though I suspect it is most popular with females. Pricewise though, this place is really good and at the end of the day, that's what it will come down to for most people, myself included, which is why I would rather go to Semi-Chem.

If you have a Boots Advantage card you get points for each purchase which you can then use to buy goods in the future.
