I visited the CVS at The Wharf on September 22 and 29 to grab a few items for my hotel stay. While…read morethe location is convenient, especially if you're staying nearby and need quick essentials, there are some things worth noting. Pros: * Great location for travelers and locals in need of last-minute items. * Open late and within walking distance of hotels, restaurants, and the waterfront. Cons: * The store is often busy and disorganized. Shelves are not front-faced, and items can feel scattered. * The checkout process is chaotic. While self-checkout is available, most customers avoid it, and there's usually only one cashier, which slows everything down. * Prices are high, but that's expected in tourist-heavy areas. Still, it would be nice to see more effort in store presentation and customer flow. Final Thoughts: If you need something quickly and you're in the area, this CVS will do the job. Just adjust your expectations--you'll likely wait in line, pay a bit more, and find things slightly out of place. I recommend it only because there aren't many other options nearby.

Nobody at the store at 10:30am on Tuesday 3/31/26 knew how to process an OTC credit and nobody was willing to try to figure out how.

The pharmacist wouldn't even share his name with me when I asked.

Not one of the stronger Harris Teeter locations I've been to. The store felt empty in a way that was a little off-putting, and the security presence was notably tight -- more so than you'd typically expect for a grocery store, which sets an uncomfortable tone before you even start shopping. There was also a pricing discrepancy on a drink at checkout, where the shelf price and the register price didn't match. To his credit, the staff member was kind enough to correct it without any pushback, which I appreciated. That kind of customer service saves the visit from being a total loss. Harris Teeter has better locations in the area -- this one just isn't it for me

I have never waited more than 20 minutes at even the worst CVS's. The pharmacists and pharmacist techs could also be a little friendlier, although they are not outright rude. Also, don't even think about getting here right when the pharmacy opens, because the staff won't be there yet- they are usually late. I am happy that they have self-checkouts here since the workers like to move like they're being forced to walk off the plank. I guess I'm happy that they also have security here since there are often many kids that used to come here and act rowdy and steal stuff; and also run around the store like it's a playground. This CVS is definitely a major upgrade from the little tool shed/trailer that they used to have before they revamped the Waterfront metro area.
