THE spot for your non-branded (and *some* branded) UO merch and for just about anything else. Seriously, this place has pretty much anything you want (even a pharmacy!), but you may need help finding things. Hiron's uses the same principle as dense urban areas: when real estate is limited, build vertically! The place it quite literally floor-to-ceiling with gifts, merch, sundries, goodies, and sooooo much more. The only minor knock is the 'organization' can be a touch shaky, but hey, throw in friendly service and that lack of sales tax in Oregon (I'm not local and love that) and WHAM! winner of a place. One of my wife's fave takeaways from a visit to see our Duck is a T-shirt from Hiron's; she always gets complements on it! You're on your own with parking since Safeway shares the lot and it can be like playing Frogger getting to the door (with you as the frog). Prices are fair and match the value, but if you need UO with a swoosh....then you can overspend elsewhere. I have never left Hiron's with less than five items, including my very first visit when I dropped my Duck off three years ago. They have the things I want, the things I didn't know I wanted, and tons of things to browse through and call my own. read more

Literally one can find all things here. Came for the drug store to buy saline spray. Left with baby gifts, toilet tissue, Oregon sticker & magnet, little musical crank box, cooler bag, gift cars... 168 later. Great prices and friendly service read more

This place is just overwhelming with the amount it has to offer. It's easy to walk past things you would actually want since it's soo packed with stuff/junk. However, I think this is a fantastic place to get fun/funny gifts and souvenirs for people (which is exactly what I did). The variety is definitely there so you'll be able to find something for everyone. I honestly kept forgetting it was an actual pharmacy with how crowded it was. 3 stars because I definitely got overwhelmed before I was able to go through the entire place. Also the prices can be ridiculous for some of the small, cheaply made items. read more

Hirons Drug - Drugstores Near Me - Eugene, Oregon

I bought my first yoyo at Hirons drug store in the 1960s with lawn mowing money. I left Eugene and returned a year ago after being away 41 years. I'm in Hirons at least once a week! I love that store and love keeping my money in the local economic ecosystem. read more

I love how unique the store is. The employees are super friendly and I'll always come back.

Surreal place. Kinda pissed at the post office in the back for sending my package across the country instead of a mile down the street to the main post office BUTTTT that's not the stores problem. The fact such a wild souvenir store has a post office and pharmacy makes this a professional and silly place. It's like some kind of wild twilight zone. I have never seen so many plushies, some super specific. read more

I love Hirons. Or rather, I've come to love them. When we went here when I was younger, my mom had to kind of drag us here. But I like that even though Tiffany's (the other independent store/pharmacy in town) closed down long ago, Hiron's keeps chugging along. The store can be a bit overwhelming at first because the aisle are really, really narrow, crammed full of stuff, and it can be tricky to maneuver at times. You'll find Duck gear, lotion and other bath stuff, cards, a pharmacy, gift items, a post office, and more. The store has a jewelry section as well, and it is much larger than the Franklin store (probably at least three times as large). I bought several sterling silver rings and earrings here that I love, and they were at fantastic prices (the earrings, for example, were $11-12 per pair for small sterling posts). They support local artisans and have various items made by local folks. You'll find souvenirs here, lots of Eugene and Oregon-related decals... it's just a treasure trove of stuff. I will say that it's pretty annoying that they make you show your ID with your debit card--I think if it's over a certain dollar amount, so not every debit transaction. But the whole point of the chip system is that it's more secure, and things like checking ID aren't necessary... and also, it's a good thing I happened to have ID on me because then they wouldn't have sold me the ~$100 worth of stuff I had? Hmm. Is this my favorite store in Eugene? Maybe; it's certainly shortlisted. It's a fun store to wander around in, for sure. read more

Plenty of parking. Inventory offerings are more substantial than a typical drug store. Their greeting card selections are second to none in this metro. Staff are receptive and helpful. They are my go-to drug store! read more

Pharmacy has ruined the store: I would give this Hirons pharmacy ZERO stars if I could. The pharmacist plays with the elderly's medication and call doctors despite written orders to get the fill date changed, they put families through traveling and waiting times, the pharmacists have no regard for the population they are serving. This has been done several times to my elderly mother. I was a prominent Hirons shopper, and because I've seen what the pharmacist does to my mother, I will no longer be shopping there and getting the items much cheaper somewhere else. read more

Hiron's is a fabulous place to shop for housewares, health and beauty products, plants, gifts, cards, shelf stable food and candy, snacks. They have an amazing and diverse selection of products. I always enjoy shopping there and find useful items and things I never imagined, but instantly find helpful. Totally a great experience and supportive staff and pharmacy. Ten stars! read more

Great place ..friendly people . Lots of needs and stuff. Rock on with twenty billion garlic naan socks on !!! read more

I've been shopping at Hiron's since 1975. My insurance company is pushing me to do mail order which is cheaper for them. I, being a former local retailer, would rather support a local business. I'm usually greeted by name when I visit. Hiron's has a good ambiance that is not found in big chain stores. Jeffrey ogburn read more

Love this little shop that almost seems to have everything you could possibly need! I think if there was Hirons near every college campus it would be a popular store. Gifts, souvenirs, snacks, household items, kitchen items, lots of University of Oregon items. read more

I love this place! I am glad Hiron's is in Eugene so I can do business with a local company and have an old town pharmacy and gift store to shop at. The pharmacy staff are always helpful. The store staff are too, and I am almost always asked if I need help as soon as I walk in the door, even when they are busy. A must go to if you are a Ducks fan for awesome regalia! read more

All of the plants in front of the store are wilted and dying, or dead. They are really sad and pathetic looking!!! (If you're not going to water them, why try to sell them?) The pottery had signage on the shelving that said "artisan" but every single piece of pottery looked identical, so I'm fairly certain it was mass produced, not "artisan" as advertised. I try to support non-franchised, locally owned businesses and I grew up with my family frequently shopping at Hirons. But the quality here has really gone downhill, which is sad. read more

Favorite store in Eugene by far! I can always walk over and find what I need and more! Love the atmosphere and the staff are all nice! Love being able to get gifts or essentials in the same place! read more

Hirons is Family Owned and a great place for all your nic-nac needs!! They have all sorts of things that fit the season. Great place to find a card for a friends birthday. You can also find essential oils here with there pretty good choices to pick from. If you are a duck fan and need some gear for the game come here and loud up for a great price. (better than the duck store) The people here are willing to help you out to find what you need. read more

I am new to Oregon and Eugene and wow I love Hirons. It is so fun spending a lazy Sunday exploring all of the neat gifts on the shelves. Its a bit disorienting how packed it is but it also means I can circle the store 5+ times and not see everything. Most recently I bought some Bob Ross slippers. I am a happy little tree indeed. read more

This is a cute little drug store, but more importantly, this is the best, small, local store to buy University of Oregon gear from! They have a much bigger selection then the Duck Store and more variety. read more

Hirons is a smorgasbord of wonderful and eclectic gifts, and staples. We are always able to find something to fit whatever our need is. The staff is helpful to lead us to what we can't find. We even had the good fortune to meet "the voice" and owner of Hirons while shopping once. He was engaging and grateful for our business. With so many options for shopping, Hirons feels good to patron. read more

Love this store, they have all types of memorabilia for University of Oregon Duck fans! Very reasonable and affordable prices.

Hiron's is like a locally owned Long's Drugs Store. Most of them are tightly packed with all sorts of thingamcbobs, whodiddilydoos, and whatchamccallits. A lot of which are collectible figurines and other craft type stuff. They have tons of candy, jewelry, and cards. It's a great place for a college student to find stuff to populate their room with colored lights, glow in the dark stuff, etc. The staff is really helpful if you need it also. They have mainly two convenient locations on each side of the University of Oregon campus. read more

Hirons Drug - Drugstores Near Me - Eugene, Oregon

I don't know where to start... my brain is still trying to organize thoughts about Hirons -- there's just so much, maybe too much for my brain to process... Hello Kitty items here, tin lunch boxes there, books in the front, bacon band-aids in the back, made in Oregon souvenirs, candles, hats, water balloons, greetings cards, garden items, tools, and many, many, other stuff. A CRAZY, but FUN place... I could totally spend hours just browsing even thought I have nothing in mind to buy, but probably end up buying things anyway... things I do not need like bacon flavored beans :D! read more

Wow. Karen from the 18th street location really does not want to help people. Clearly these folks don't understand customers are important. Based on the fact that there are only two of these stores, her job must be secure regardless of customer retention. read more

This place is absolutely packed with tight aisles crammed with Oregon Duck wear, souvenirs, gift wrap, crafts and thousands of other items. Super friendly and efficient service and close to campus. read more

Hirons Drug - They sell plenty of crap to trash your kid's dorm room. - Drugstores Near Me - Eugene, Oregon

Hirons is such a great store. They have something for everyone! Need a prescription? They got you (last locally owned pharmacy in Eugene). Wind chime? Yup. Duck gear? Come and get it. Grab some candy and cosmetics while you're at it. Locally owned by an amazing family who cares about the community. The adversity and theft the store deals with daily is mind boggling yet the staff and owners continue to show up and serve their loyal customers. Hirons is the best! Shop with them and show your support for a wonderful and local establishment. read more

Friendly staff in an unusual store with a pharmacy. The pharmacist, Jerry is a nice guy with a high efficiency of support staff. They're always busy but willing to answer questions and assist with prescription questions. The store itself has more than anyone can ever imagine. Knickknacks from tiny fairy figurines to Mardi Gras beads to UO shirts. Wind chimes to chocolate. It's a wonderful place to visit. I would highly recommend this store and pharmacy to anyone, especially those looking to check out interesting things and friendly staff. read more

What a fun little store. It ranges from gag gifts to collectibles, with boxes, bags, wrappings etc. also lots of personal items and household items too. Expect to spend some time here as there is so much to see and their prices are good too. Biggest drawback is if it is busy, there is not a lot of room as the aisles are small and the shelves are stuffed. read more

Don't judge a store by its outward appearance: while Hirons Drug's exterior is simplistic, the inside is packed with a huge variety of products! I have lived in Eugene for over a year now, and have gone to the Safeway next door to Hirons many times. I never gave Hirons a second glance until I noticed it said on the front window that they make keys there. I needed to make a copy of key, and decided to go inside and see if they could do it for me. When I opened the door, I was shocked at all the knick knacks and merchandise; this place is visually overwhelming, because the store is literally covered floor to ceiling in merchandise. It was a little difficult to find the key making counter, partially because I got distracted looking at all the different products, but I eventually found it in the back. The employee who made the key for me was courteous, and told me that if the key did not work for any reason, I could take it back and they could make me a new one (or give me my money back). Luckily, I had no problems with the key they made for me! This is the perfect store to visit if you want to spend an hour or two browsing, because they have anything and everything. When I was there, here's a list of what only begins to describe a small portion of their offerings: an entire aisle devoted to Oregon Ducks merchandise, a display of tin lunchboxes and other shaped tins from several pop culture brands such as Coca-Cola and Candyland, an aisle full of costume accessories and full costumes, pinatas and feather boas hanging from the ceiling, Christmas ornaments, Hello Kitty mugs, Wizard of Oz merchandise, Breakfast at Tiffany's merchandise, plush toys from Studio Ghibli, cleaning supplies, vitamins, tampons, and reusable shopping bags. The reason I am giving Hirons four stars instead of five is because while their product offerings are quite impressive, their price point on some items is higher than it is elsewhere. But considering it's a local business and not a corporate chain, some people may not mind spending a few extra bucks. read more

Hirons Drug - Supposedly the largest tin selection in Eugene! - Drugstores Near Me - Eugene, Oregon

I discovered Hirons back in 1995 when I first lived in Eugene, and instantly became a loyal customer of theirs. Lived in other states for a while and returned to Eugene last year -- and was delighted to confirm that Hirons is still in business!! (No surprise there.) Fantastic customer service, unlike the big-store pharmacies in the area -- the staff are proud of their one-on-one patient support, and they should be! Instead of "we can't do that" you'll hear "let's see if we can fix that" from Hirons pharmacy staff. You can re-order medications with your online account and have them delivered the next day ... even though it's more fun to go there and browse the amazing shelves and displays in person! read more

I used the HIron's pharmacy to fill a prescription 2 weeks ago and then to refill the prescription again today. I will never, ever fill another prescription here. The pharmacist was extremely rude to me when I filled the prescription the first time. I gave her the written prescription and she input it into her system without checking to see if the medication was available. Then when she told me she didn't have it, she wouldn't give me the prescription back. She told me if I found another pharmacy ("a big if") that I would have to have them call and transfer the prescription. Um, what?! Both times I filled the prescription I had issues with it being ready. I wasted nearly an hour of my time waiting for prescription's to be "labeled". Even though I ordered the prescription twice they refused to label the bottle until I came to pick it up so they could give it to someone else if I decided it was too expensive. It was $30. Really?! You're going to waste an hour of my time over $30 after I already said I wanted the prescription. I'm started to think maybe they do this on purpose so you have to burn time in the rest of Hiron's "shopping". I'd rather use the big "goliath" of Safeway if it means my time and money are not wasted. If you are looking for a cool giftshop, Hiron's is an excellent choice. If you are looking to fill a prescription, go somewhere else. read more

My disabled son was getting his medicine from Hirons Drug. When he was ready to leave, he discovered someone had stolen the rear wheel off his bicycle which is his mode of transportation. He cannot put the bike on the bus without both wheels. The store personnel viewed their security cameras with him. They put his bike inside the store until the next day. Steve Hirons drove his bike to a repair shop the next day because my son had no way to transport it. As his mother (who does not live locally), I am grateful for the kindness and help they afforded him. It is reassuring in these days to find those who go beyond their normal parameters to help others. I certainly would recommend their business for anyone looking for an amazing business. Thank you. read more

Hiron's defies easy categorization - which you've likely gathered from other reviews. Imagine the love-child of a local CVS or Rite Aide crossed with a New Orleans Mardi Gras and you'd have a pretty good idea what's lurking amid the structured chaos of this kitschy treasure house. If you have a proclivity for roadside bizarres, flea markets, garage sales, NASCAR accidents, small-town fairs or just happened to have missed the officially-licensed Oregon Duck gear available at the UO Bookstore, this is probably a bigger opportunity than you bargained for to deck yourself, your friends, your pet, your home and your vehicles out in Quack Attack attire. The store has a multitude of other offerings, even (cough cough) Oregon State Beaver gear (once a rival, always a rival). I've never gone too far down the rabbit hole to report back from the outer reaches and far walls. But if I were a Martian and could make only one stop on the trip home, or for anybody needing a crack at last-minute anything -- this would be the place. The prices, as you can imagine, are all over the map. One second you feel gouged. "Outrage!" The next you're marveling at the red-hot whoosit you've just gotta have (hide the wallet and/or wife/husband as required). By the same token, steer clear of the entrance if you're A) a tightwad, B) a spoilsport or C) have little tolerance for scandalous come-on items at the grocer's. This place would make the perfect date-night dare, as in, "I dare you not to be seduced by at least one utterly superfluous something." If that doesn't work, consider this: it won't simply be Chinese light manufacturing you're enabling with your purchases. There are a surprising number of Oregon-made items tucked among the shelves! Mind, they won't always be easy to spot. GO DUCKS or some-such slogan may provide a clue. When in doubt, look for the MADE IN OREGON label. Eugenians are clever animals determined to try anything to make an artistic living. Avoid converting this into a drinking game and you should do fine. Oh, and if stricken by sudden waves of guilt on the way to the cashier's, remember that trying to justify an impulse buy once in here is like rationalizing ice cream after you've pulled up at a Ben & Jerry's. Just do it. (Sigh. Another swoosh gets her wings.) read more

Steve Hirons, the co-owner of Hirons Drug, likes to profile entire families. Even up at the register while we were purchasing our items, he made us so uncomfortable we mention this to the cashier. He then processed to come up to us, tell us that he was the owner & that other people had told him that before, but that it was our fault we were uncomfortable because he followed us around. We will NEVER return! read more

Yesterday I walked into Hirons to make a quick return and the manager or whoever with the key locked the doors the second it hit 8pm. As me an an older man we're just grabbing the handles . She rudely showed no sim path you for the old man who needed something aswell as didn't want to help with my quick return. (There we're still customers shopping inside and both me and this gentleman were in a hurry) I Then went in the next day during business hours and was told I am unable to return something I purchased , but I specifically asked the cashier at checkout if I was able to, and she had said yes. Two consistent days of shit service. read more

I LOVE THIS PLACE! This place is amazing! Toys, party supplies, drugs, housewares, like a really upscale dollar store with brand names and a prescription pharmacy. Much fun! read more

I've never used the pharmacy but the store, any location, is great for: After holiday sales: WOW! Almost all the stuff crammed in there is on sale for cheap! Hard to find items.... old fashioned remedies/ chemical supplies. Look in front of the pharmacy, somewhere amongst all those aisles, you'll find those things usually reasonably priced. In the old days, we called that section: "The wet & dries." This store is dimly lit, crowded, crammed full of... mostly JUNK - a lot of FUN JUNK! - but it's fun to peruse at least once or twice a year, when it's all on sale! read more

This is a must stop when you're shopping for something but forgot what it was. Things are organized crazy and it literally looks like they just put random things together and called it a sale or display. Upscale dollar store with a pharmacy is probably the best description of this locally owned joint. Filled with highly questionable merchandise but great for stocking stuffers, knick-knacks, greeting cards and maybe wrapping paper too. read more

What a treasure chest of goodness! WOW! We remodeled our home a few years ago, and surprisingly enough found most all the final touches right here at good ol' Hiron's! For as many years as I can remember (and I grew up as a child in Eugene) Hiron's has been one of those "fun" stores with way too much stuff crammed into way too small a space --- loads of fun! Truly, it's like a treasure hunt. They aren't cheap on pricing, but they don't lack for inventory selection either. If you're after something totally unique, off the wall, or just different... here's the place to shop! It's also a great place to just waste some time. read more

Updated: Unfortunately, Hiron's has a new crop of pharmacy technicians who are too preoccupied and curt to promptly address the customers needs. This has become an increasingly irritating and growing situation. I will simply transfer my prescriptions elsewhere. read more
