I've been in Carl's Pharmacy a few times before while visiting Aspen, to buy a map or some sunscreen, and everyone is always friendly and helpful. They also have a wonderful selection of nice cosmetics. Today I came in because my curling comb broke last night. Not only did they have the exact tool I needed (Conair's round heated curling comb, 1.5" size), they even cut the hard plastic off for me as I'd otherwise have had to buy some scissors. So nice! They were so helpful and friendly, and their selection is great. Going upstairs for the first time, I saw that they had all kinds of toys, towels, school supplies, etc. If you need anything at all while visiting Aspen, my guess is that Carl's has it. read more

We were in Snowmass for Spring Break when our daughter got sick. Our pediatrician phoned in a prescription for her at Carl's, and everything from that point on went very well. When I called to see if it were ready, the pharmacy staff knew about the prescription and said they were expecting us. At Carl's the staff was helpful, and the pharmacist really took her time to explain everything about the drug to an anxious father. Plus, Carl's had a contract with my insurance company (BCBS of TN), which was more than I had expected going to a local pharmacy. I was very pleased with the whole experience. read more

Of all the things to catch on a ski trip - a serious head cold caught me. Luckily Carl's pharmacy carries different options to alleviate the symptoms. Upstairs is a plethora of items from very reasonably priced sovenirs to knick-knacks... they have it all, including good service and a polite staff. I'm very happy that I stopped by. read more

There's a lot in here! We found everything we needed - water, sunscreen, icepack, wine, chap stick, and a lighter - three trips - in that order. read more

This place carries everything you may need, but The hours suck! I miss CVS

Ridiculously over prices - $2.69 for a single swim diaper!? They do not sell packs of swim diapers.

Good for medicines, make up, basic necessities and knick knacks although often over priced but whatever you do DONT buy wine here. Often corked and they're customer service is horrendous. read more

This is seriously the worst establishment I've ever been to.. .i walked in casually and bought a lighter because I misplaced mine, I walk outside and realize that the lighter was not working properly so I walk back in and asked if I could swap it out with a different one, the guy behind the counter looks me straight in the eye and says "I tested it before I sold it to you" just a complete and total lie, "this was 2 minutes ago and you're going to just lie to my face? You absolutely did not do that and you know it" is what I responded back with, then I guess his manager or something said that I was making a scene and needed to leave before the cops were called...look I will admit when I do wrong but I don't think asking for a $2 lighter to work properly is inherently insane ,either way please never give your hard earned money to this place, I would love to see them go out of business if these are standard practices and if the owners are reading I will take this post down and leave a good review if the two employees that were working around five o'clock on 4/6/19 were terminated, I hate being malicious but I seriously cannot believe the treatment I received... read more

The booze store is great, the pharmacy serves its purpose. They do have socks and tshirts and they are the only place to get these items. The staff are jerks!! WOuld be 5 stars if not for them. read more

Great store! One of the last real locally owned stores around! Pharmacy is on point and fast. Store is a bit pricey but worth it.

I'd stay away from Carl's if you actually need a prescription filled. They don't file with insurance and make no effort to accomodate with insurance. It made my trip to Aspen A LOT more expensive! read more

I would NEVER shop at this store again! I bought a shampoo and conditioner by Joico two days ago (over $40). I used it once and it burned my hair and made it so greasy that I actually had to go to a salon to get the product or of my hair. When I went back to the store to return the products, the manager told me that even if I had a receipt they wouldn't return because "it's not their product." Let me ask you this, what product in your actual store is actually "your product." She also said since it was opened (which it come open) she wouldn't return it. All I was asking for from the store is for a store credit to get a product that wouldn't ruin my hair. Since they are the only pharmacy in town they make it like a monopoly to have to buy from them. I will never go back here and would also recommend that you buy your products elsewhere or if you're in Aspen for a vacation to bring your own stuff from home. Regardless that I spent over $200 there a couple days ago and regardless that I have been shopping here since coming to Aspen for the last twenty years, they didn't seem to care... They obviously don't value repeat business. Their customer service and return policy is awful and I will not be coming back .Save your money and your time and don't step foot in this store. read more

Remember the old-fashioned General Store that used to be in every small town? This is it. Yes, it's Aspen and the prices are high, but the delight of finding that thing you never thought you could find here is wonderful. An earlier review from 2013 exaggerates the distance to Big Box stores (it's really only 45 minutes to WalMart in Glenwood Springs) - but who wants to support a retailer like WalMart? It's so important to support local businesses! read more

Everything you buy is super expensive... 2gb card is $16..if you can avoid, you are lucky...

Avoid this place! Staff extremely rude and unhelpful. Very unfriendly and inappropriate comments and behavior. Female clerk in the back (food area) room is rude and lazy. On my last visit to the store I asked a clerk if the store was busy due to the x games in town - he replied, "No, they don't have any money" I was appalled by his comment. I witnessed a customer ask a male clerk for help, the clerk responded, " yeah, but I'm busy, you'll have to find someone else". Pharmacy staff is very friendly and helpful. Very long wait for pharmacy. Also extremely overpriced. I spoke to store manager, Christy regarding staff attitudes, she barely acknowledged it, did not apologize or offer to rectify situation. Go to City market for Rx's, Ace hardware next to Clarke's market for the same items at a much less expensive price. Reading/sunglasses at Carls sell for over 25.00, Ace has them for under $5.00. Wine is less expensive at ABC liquor store or store next to Clark's. Very Overrated! read more
