There is a much larger Boots store over two floors in the lower precinct which has everything you could need, but these are very handy. The staff are always extremely friendly and the pharmacists are very knowledgeable, more so than my own GPs I think.

Boots is the pharmacy/health and beauty equivalent of a supermarket. It's got a pharmacy section on…read morethe top floor, with pretty much every medicine you could think of and well-trained staff. The ground floor has health and beauty products ranging from sanitary products to bubble bath to make-up. Pretty much all mainstream brands are in here and Boots own-brand products are often exactly the same as more expensive equivalent brands, but half the price. They do a small range of food and drink for snacks and lunchtime, which tries to be healthy, but is just the same as you can get in most high street shops that are trying to diversify into lunches. Keep an eye out for lunch deals where you can get a sandwich, snack and drink combo deal for a good price.

So off to Boots for some great smelly soap & shampoo - I like their Boots Brand Lilac fragrance the best And while you're there, pick up some water or some fun nail polish, or a 220v hairdryer.... or whatever Boots has it all!

Fantastic old fashion dispensing chemist just off The Parade. They are the opposite of what you get…read morefrom a large chain and offer a great, personal service. The premises are small but they pack in a wide variety of traditional chemist products including talc and perfume from traditional companies such as Yardley and Bronnley. They also sell a good range of Denman and Mason Pearson hairbrushes and are one of the few places I've found with a good range of hot water bottles and hot water bottle covers. Don't think they don't keep up with the times though! They stock a great range of Badger Balm products and are happy to provide advice on traditional remedies. Highly recommended for those looking for something different to the chain chemists.

Now, Birmingham... Let's talk Health. I have reviewed my Dentist and my Doctor, but there are a…read morehost of other places in Birmingham which are striving to keep us fighting fit. For my services which are not teeth related, I use the multiple places in Boots. Boots (as you will already know) is a chain pharmacy and beauty store - available in train stations, city centres and most places where you may need to grab a pack of paracetamol or some plasters. This boots, however, offers a whole host of other services you may need for a range of health needs. Upstairs are your beauty counters, hygiene products and gifts (the discount on gifts after christmas is particularly good - offering 50% - 70% off), but on the lower floor are it's other services. If you pop on the escalators and head downstairs you'll find an optician, an NHS walk-in, a doctors surgery, Birmingham Uni dentists and a sexual health clinic. With the doctors surgery and dentist, you will need an appointment. The optician will see walk-ins (depending on how busy they are) and the sexual health clinic and NHS centre are totally walk-in led. This, obviously, can lead to long waiting times - but if you desperately need a doctor and can't get an appointment at your local clinic, this place is a lifesaver (probably quite literally). As well as the various medical services I have mentioned, Boots offers a "stop smoking" clinic and other health led initiatives. When I first moved into Birmingham City Centre I had no idea where my local health services would be (I was dreading having to catch a bus out of town), so for all of those who work or live in the City - this place is your one stop shop for when you're feeling off or need some supplies.

There's also the more seasonal items. Currently there are sunglasses and lotions located towards the back of the store. It's never been overly busy when i've been there even at 5pm on a weekday which is perfect if you want to spend a bit more time browsing. The meal deal is a good price (£3.49 at last check) and it includes a sandwich/wrap, a drink and a snack (up to the value of £1.25 so go for the larger ones!). The service is always quick as there's never really a queue which is great if you're in a rush.

I have recently had my eyes checked at this store.

It was found that i needed glasses for reading etc so of i went to chose what ones i wanted. The staff were really helpful and helped me find ones that suited me and recomended some others for me to try. The price was fine and good for the value of glasses i got. I didn have to wait to long for the glasses to come back in stock ready for me to take home. Over all i thought i received a good service and i would recommened this to any body who was needing there eyes checked.

I have to admit that I only ever rarely shopped at boots until I was able to take advantage of…read moretheir advantage card (no pun was intended there). It is a great store because you can buy pretty much everything you need under one roof which I am definitely a great fan of. I find that I tend to buy most of my holiday items from here such as sun tan lotion, sunglasses and fly sprays and bite creams. You can also get photos developed at many boots stores. They sell baby clothes, beauty products, electricals such as hair dryers ect and fragrance. They also have a pharmacy where you can buy your prescriptions. I think boots is well known for its 3 for 2 products, which make good stocking fillers and save you some cash. The staff are always very helpful and friendly and they have plenty of tills with staff on them all the time, you rarely get an unstaffed till.

They have a good range of magazines, confectionery, and food and drink. It doesn't really get too busy in here, so service is usually pretty good. The range of make-up and perfume is quite good, and they have a lot of essential toiletries too. They do have good multi-buy offers on brand products sometimes, which is great. It's worth trying some of the Superdrug own ranges too, because they are pretty good and very good value for money! Sometimes they have 5% off stamps, which is great to get while you are picking up some essentials. Staff are friendly and helpful, ask if you need anything.
