The store has recently been refurbished and is bright and well laid out. It's not quite as big but stocks everything you would expect at a chemists. Staff were extremely helpful and knowledgeable; I actually felt better just for talking to a friendly person - a little bit of sympathy is all you need when you have a rotten cold. No queues, either - a definite winner.

As a result, it has pretty much everything that Boots has to offer, from toiletries to photo-printing, although it can sometimes be a bit messy. It is a good place to come for make-up, as it has brands from Maybelline to No. 7 and high-end brands like YSL, which have their own separate counters for even better service. Overall, a really useful shop.

Good old Boots. This one is quite small, but has a little of most of the usual suspects - hair and…read morebeauty, health, pharmacy, vitamins, food, dental products and so on. Boots loyalty card - the advantage card - is probably the best loyalty card going. It gives you 4 points per pound spent and there are always specials deals on that give you extra points. It means you rack up a decent amount of money to spend at Boots fairly quickly. They always have a few 3 for 2 deals on too, which will often be on things you actually need to buy. Another excellent service that Boots provides is free chlamydia tests for anyone under 26. You simply ask for a test at the pharmacy counter, and bring it back to any branch and they send you the results.

It is slightly larger than…read morethe average Boots Pharmacy store with a small selection of other items including drinks, yet it is dwarfed compared to the other larger stores the health and beauty retailer have. In pretty much regards it is a typical Boots store in terms of decor and product ranges, just a lot smaller. It does seem to be slightly busier than one would expect for a store of its' size, which is pretty common for London but still, the not very friendly staff and small store made the whole situation seem a little bit more unpleasant. Overall, this store isn't bad if you're just planning to put in a prescription and have a few minutes to spare as it is in a good location, but other than that there isn't too much to shout about, especially considering there's a larger store just under half a mile away around the corner on Queensway. 2*

Unfortunately the shop is a little scruffy and in need of refurbishment. It's a huge contrast to the glamourous new Superdrug in the nearby Westfield centre!

This branch of Superdrug is slightly more modern than some other branches, which one would expect for being in a mall that as I recall is only around 10 years old, and still a modern, new mall in its own right. I mainly called in Superdrug today to pick up a few drinks, however, the drink selection was poor, very poor, tucked into the back of the store, it didn't even include any Starbucks bottled beverages or even a great selection of Lipton Iced Teas. They were also in an awkward position towards the end of the store in the corner. The staff didn't seem as helpful or friendly as one would expect, they seemed more about serving customers without a personal touch or even showing good customer service, it was like they saw customers as a number and overall appeared rushed, even when the store wasn't too busy. Poor service and selection sadly warrants a single one-star for what is sadly a poor branch of Superdrug.

They always have tasty sandwiches and my favourite - Hoisin Duck Wrap!

Staff here are friendly too, and lots of good offers on. Their points system is also very rewarding, and you can quickly stack points up for a lunchtime treat.

I was extremely impressed that they remembered my name and very embarrassed that I don't remember theirs. I felt in good hands and pleased that I wasn't rushed through the examination.
