So much better than CVS or Walgreens in the USA, and it's very nice to have a pharmacy in an airport. The prices aren't bad, one thing you might need on a layover is an adapter for Euro/Anglo current to charge up your phone or Kindle and they had very reasonable prices. I don't like the self check out, and it's pretty busy here. Better prices on snacks and beverages than you'll find at any American airport shop or on board your flight. read more

This is such a convenient and cleverly placed Boots! Available immediately AFTER security in Terminal 5, you can get everything you want and need that you couldn't fit into your liquids bag. Good for those last minute items you forgot, great for those who like to plan ahead (and have time during a layover to leisurely shop; just note the aisles are SMALL and most people are IN A RUSH). A pharmacy with paracetamol, plasters, mouthwash, body lotion, hand sanitizer, loofas, vitamin c tablets... disposable razors, sunscreen, adapters, sunglasses, crisps and chocolates, etc. Self checkout makes it easy! read more

No drinks at all when k stopped by whilst waiting for my flight Not stocked up with much for such a busy day so had to go to the WHSmith little stand to get a bottle of water instead and some chips. Disappointed with this location unfortunately read more

Boots is such a great place to grab those last minute items before your flight. The problem that I saw last week was that shelves were empty and/or extremely disorganized. I was looking g for a particular item and wasn't able to find it, and there wasn't an associate to help me locate it. read more

I really did enjoy my experience in this airport pharmacy. They were well shocked, fair prices and efficient. They had a meal special - sandwich or salad with potato chips and water for £4.35 ish. I will make notw to visit them on my outbound flights from London, moving forward. read more

Boots - This plus a bag of chips was $4.35. Their meal special is superb. - Drugstores Near Me - Hounslow, XGL

This review is for the Boots at LHR Terminal 5. This was a welcome place to stock up on small toiletries forgotten or those that a need had come up. For me that included disposable razors, deodorant, a small supply of Paracetamol/Tylenol, and some sun screen. And all were put in a small handy paper bag (with handle) for an extra 5 pence. read more

Thank god for Boots at LHR Terminal 5. They definitely were a god send for me during my recent trip to Europe. I was flying from HKG to LHR, en route to ARN and noticed on my HKG-LHR flight I had copious, purulent goop coming from my eye. I knew I had some sort of pink eye and needed to get some sort of anti-infective cream or drops. Fortunately for me, I laid over in Terminal 5 and was able to come to Boots and get some anti infective eye ointment. In the UK, chloramphenicol 1% is available as an over the counter (OTC) medication, but this particular location at LHR only offers the ointment formulation since it doesn't require refrigeration. I was able to buy a tube and get a consultation from a very knowledgable and friendly male pharmacist. He asked me if I had any eye pain or changes in vision, which I didn't- he then instructed me how to use the ointment, duration, and what to do if things don't improve. What great pharmacy counseling skills! Haven't had such a great pharmacy consultation in a long while. Definitely was a refreshing experience to get such good service despite how miserable I felt (or I should say, how my eyes felt). read more

Stopped in at Boots in Heathrow on our layover. It kind of made me wish I had planned to stay in London for a day or two on my way to Rome because there is such great stuff here that is exclusive to the UK. Very nice and friendly cashier as well. read more

Loved this place. Was looking for a Walgreens type business in London and this is it. From cosmetics to toiletries to medicines and general odds and ends that you forgot to pack, Boots has it. Prices are pretty reasonable. You scan your own stuff and pay an extra 5 pence for a bag if you want one (lots of people bring their own). Would definitely recommend. read more
