    Perhaps not the best, largest or modern of Boots locations in the city but the fact this store is…read moreopen later than most other nearby branches (Until 9:30 pm on weekdays) providing a full pharmacy service in that time is really useful for the city centre - with it being at the enterance of Manchester Piccadilly Railway Station. (It also opens at 6 during the week too, great to pop in on your commute!) The drinks and to-go food selection is okay but I do feel other places within the station including WHSmith, Marks and Spencer and the Co-op outside are better, however. It can get a little crowded at peak times, I do occasionally see warehouse boxes around the store too which makes this a little worse. If you're looking for a flu shot, this store as of writing has the best availability in the city centre with appointments most days compared to the Arndale/Market Street branch which would have had me waiting over two weeks, and Piccadilly Gardens which has over a weeks wait for an appointment after 4:30 pm (This is a seasonal thing remember!) Average store in most regards, but opening hours make it much more useful to pick up medicines when in the city. 3*

    One of the perils of commuting is being surrounded with people with colds. I've lost count of the…read moreamount of times I've sat on the train listening to other people coughing, sniffing and blowing their noses for two hours. The reason I've managed to avoid getting the dreaded flu myself is wrapping up warm and carrying First Defense and Cuticura Hand Gel with me. The former keeps me warm and toasty and the latter two kill off bad germs and bacteria. Luckily, this Boots stocks both so whenever I'm travelling and running low on either, I just pop in and grab some on my way to the platform. Handily, they also stock smoothies and breakfast bars too!

    Ahhhhh Lloyds. I first visited Lloyds in first year, when Norwegian Friend had been more than a…read morelittle bit naughty and made unprotected love to a boy she met in Tiger Tiger, and dragged me to Lloyds for moral support while she got the morning-after pill and a chlamydia test. Though it's always, always great to have these services offered for free and with very little judgement, so close to halls, she did take exception at having to sit in the 'Corner of Shame'; two green chairs surrounded by leaflets. Anyway, Corner of Shame aside, this Lloyds sells everything you'll ever need, and almost always has deals on bubble bath. I swear the whole time this was my local pharmacy, Herbal Essences were on BOGOFs. They also stock all the, er, flavours of dry shampoo. The staff are all helpful and knowledgeable, and will give great advice on the cold/flu remedies, as well as other non-prescription sutff. As far as prescriptions go, they are efficient and quick, and when I ran out of the pill in first year, and didn't have time to go to the doctor, they happily dispensed me another pack (though at a charge) on the strength of past prescriptions etc. I thought this was a really nice touch; and it shows how helpful and nice the staff are.

I've never had one, but my mate did, a quick visit to Lloyds a month later and he was fine. Not for me that, I'm a stable man. I like the little pestle and mortar in there sign; it suggests there's something organic about it. It's a pharmacy, what else would you like to know?

    If I wanted a cure for stress or depression the last place I would seek one out would be in the…read moreArndale Centre. Merely entering the Arndale brings on acute anxiety and feeling of want to end it all. Dr.Herbs sells Chinese remedies for everything from spots to lower back pain to anxiety. I am all for natural, organic foods but forgive me if I am a little cynical when it comes to herbal healing. I myself suffered a slipped disc three years ago in my lower back and if I am honest not even morphine substitutes could relieve pain ...it took keyhole surgery to eventually fix it! If only I had known that a few herbs would have relieved the chronic pain I was in ....hmmm. In some situations I understand that anything is worth a try. When my Friend was trying to quit smoking she tried everything and anything, however in the end it was good old fashioned will power and not the power of some flower :)

    'It's long believed that ancient Chinese herbs can cure almost anything' says the website. I agree,…read morethat's why we cultivated it years ago and called it MEDICINE! It goes on to say- 'From skin problems like eczema and psoriasis to back pain and sprains, we offer an all natural cure'- as far as I know all medicines are 'natural'. But the clincher has got to be- 'We also specialise in quitting smoking, losing weight, overcoming depression and relieving stress.' Modern science couldn't do it, heck Kerry Katona and all her millions couldn't do it but a little outlet in the fucking Arndale centre can keep us all thin and sane- at this rate they'll have an infomercial on a cable channel in no time!

    Boots at 11-13 Piccadilly might not be the largest Boots location in the city (There is the much…read morelarger flagship store opposite Three on Market Street), but it still is a fairly good store, stocking a range of Boots essentials including food and beverage. There is also a small toiletries section and a Pharmacy at the back of the store. The staff in the store seemed friendly, with service at the pharmacy very good, the pharmacist was not only quick but helpful, providing relevant help and knowledge, and seemed confident in answering questions. The prices are average, remember you can save money with a Boots Advantage Card, with discounts available for NHS workers and students. The store was clean, the layout also allows you to get in and out as quickly as possible which is the one benefit of this store, over the larger Boots store nearby. 4*

    If you're looking to browse for beauty products or toiletries, head for the flagship Boots store at…read morethe bottom of Market Street. It's more spacious and relaxed than this branch which seems constantly bustling with shop assistants and office workers popping in during their breaks. If you can cope with long queues, tutting customers and the odd elbow in your ribs, this Boots stocks everything from contact lenses, vitamins and make-up to a whole plethora of beauty and body products. There's also a pharmacist where you can pick up and drop off prescriptions and a photo lab for those that still prefer film to digital.
