    It is always great to find a CVS when you need one. You can essentially find whatever pharmaceutical need you have and it basically looks like every CVS you have walked into. We found everything we needed without a hassle. The employees were helpful.

    CVs are important for getting jobs, but not so much this one. Located in Cambridge Massachusetts and perfect for all of the Harvard students and whatnot. I think it's a cute little place and really good for the students and in a very very very good location except for one thing. Yes ok, you can walk here from most of the Harvard halls and dorms and whatever - but the main issue with it is that it's CVS, and it was extremely expensive. I mean by Boston standards it's probably not too much worse than a lot of Boston pharmacies, but it is actually more expensive than the CVS locations down in Texas, maybe because it's in Massachusetts. Surely the company should just sell stuff the same price all over the country but nope they try to take advantage of local market value and that's how they make their billions but it just makes me like them even less.

    Honestly, can you beat a 24-hour CVS? No. There are two levels. The first floor is mostly kitchenware and cereal and milk and office supplies and snacks and stuff. The second floor has cosmetics, sunscreen, first-aid, soap, shampoo, and many more household essentials. There are cashiers available on both levels. Self-checkout​ is only available on the ground level.​ What is great that there are always enough clerks around to help answer your questions or find what you are looking f​or. Super convenient​ but I wouldn't actually do my regular groceries and purchase cereal and milk from there. Check out other more affordable marketplaces in the area for your regular grocery runs!

    9/22/2019 - They have a pretty great selection of Papyrus.

    If you are ever looking for a fine establishment where you can find a 10-pack of generic trash bags for over $6, this is where it's at.

    I am a quadriplegic. When I am in my hospital bed, I use an over bed hospital table to hold my…read morephone. When my table doesn't work, I am helpless. My table broke on Sunday night. I called Skendarian when it opened on Monday morning. As always, the person who answered was knowledgeable and professional. My new hospital table, already assembled, was delivered before noon.

    The pharmacy here is WONDERFUL. The staff is EXCEPTIONAL…read more It can be extremely difficult to get topical/transdermal ointment made for a given drug from ANY pharmacy. In my experience, it's impossible from the big chains. Skendarian is one of the rare places that can not only create custom topical/transdermal medications, but do it exceptionally well. My Boston vet had directed me to an out-of-state pharmacy to make a topical version of the steroid my cat could not tolerate in liquid form. It would have taken at least five business days for me to get the meds, even paying for express shipping. I remembered that Skendarian can compound medications on site. I called them. They had the prescription cream it ready the same day they received the prescription! I'm embarrassed to write that this is not the first time Skendarian came through for our household when no other pharmacy could. The experience reminded me how critical it is to patronize local pharmacies for every day needs. CVS or Walgreens would not have done for me at all what Skendarian was able to do in ONE DAY. I wish I lived in Cambridge rather than Boston so I could do all my drugstore shopping there. They are the best. Seriously.

    Sitting outside Inman Pharmacy trying not to cry after what has become a tradition on the way home…read morefrom having a baby at Mount Auburn...dropping off prescriptions and getting hugs and congratulations from all the women who work here. Linda, Jeannie, and Victoria have always been friendly, and took especial interest in me during my first pregnancy. Then they always took a few moments to chat with me and gush over the baby when I came in as an overwhelmed new mom. My now three year old knows "my friend Linda at the pharmacy" will always give her a hug and a tickle (and these days, usually a lollipop). I can't overstate the warmth and community feeling of this place, and can't imagine Inman Square without it. Please support this wonderful small business.

The owner is disrespectful and rude. The pharmacist s were kind and accommodating until they had orders not to, and a supposed head pharmacist accused me on arguing with staff, which was certainly not true. Stay away from this place if you have complex needs. After interacting with them, my systolic pressure was over 180.

    Unlike some of the large Walgreens in suburbia, this one is more of a urban neighborhood pharmacy…read morethat still has a lot of the different departments like groceries, health and beauty, paper goods, etc. The inside of the store was a bit smaller than some of the other ones I have been to, but the staff putting stuff on the shelves and the lady at the register, were all very pleasant and friendly. I got some stuff for the condo and I paid using my rewards number. I had a few digital coupons and offers that I took advantage of. Good deal...

    Walgreen's - We DON'T try harder. I made the mistake of sending my prescription to this Walgreens…read more Even though it was called in yesterday, the prescription had not been filled when I went to the pharmacy this afternoon. And the pharmacist took their time filling it as well. As a matter of fact, they let me stand there for several moments, while they were looking at their computer. After several standing there with in silence for an interminable amount of time, I asked if it would be OK if I grabbed a few things and came back. This was OK with the pharmacist. I Needed a new nail file, and was surprised to see That a single nail file in this pharmacy is $9.74. I went back to the pharmacy to see if there were any less expensive nail files in the store. I noticed that my prescription still had not been filled. So I wasted another five minutes looking around the store for alternative sources of reasonably priced nail files and adding more over priced items to my basket. I returned with a few things, fully expecting the pharmacist would check out my six items along with my prescription. To my shock, they refused, saying they were the only one working today, and asked if I could take my items to the front cashier and stand in line there on top of all the waiting I had done in the back. Did I mention that there was nobody anywhere near the pharmacy in all of these many many many minutes that I dealt with this person? In other words, no one else to be imposing on their extremely important time (whereas my time has no value whatsoever). Feeling gouged price-wise and completely disrespected, I then went to the front of the store to a second stand to check out this small basket of items. There was a line at the cashier, most notably a person who was having great difficulty finding a credit card that would cover paying for a pack of gum. By the time I left the store, I had spent $53 buying baggies, two drinks, cookies and coffee. Oh, and a nail file that the store wanted to charge me $9.74 for but I found in other packaging with a nail cutter, cuticle cutter and storage bag (none of which I need!) for $7.50. Mind you, this one nail file I needed would cost me $1.69 in a regular store. On top of all that the pharmacist didn't have enough of my antibiotic in stock so they only partially filled my prescription. So I will be forced to return to this dimly lit, godforsaken extortion pit again on Monday. I'll give the store two stars because the pharmacist was extremely helpful a few months back. I will, however, endeavor to avoid Walgreen's and only come to this one when necessary.
