One of the best run businesses. Great service and always friendly. Love the hard to find items. I highly recommend.

I truly want to support an independent business over Duane Reade, but I also do not want my privacy to be violated every time I fill a prescription and the pharmacists announce the names of my medications loudly enough for all to hear. read more

Northside pharmacy is one of my "happy places". I want to buy everything in the store, and the people who work there are lovely. Whenever I'm under the weather I can always ask them for advice and trust that they'll help me pick out something to make me feel better. I wish I could transfer my prescriptions and use them as my primary pharmacy but I work crazy hours and unfortunately their more limited hours just can't compete with the flexibility of Duane Reade :( read more

This pharmacy rules!! I absolutely LOVE the women here. Everyone is extremely helpful and always has the best reccomendations. They always remember me by name and I only go about once a month. It's so rare to find the small town charm in such a big city. Whenever I need my prescription refilled she greets me and fills it right on the spot, I dont even have to tell her what it is, she just knows. I never have had to wait more than 5 mins. Ive since moved from the neighborhood but I always go here for my prescriptions no matter what! read more

Friendly, fast, and cheap! I used to fill my prescriptions at a RiteAid, but recently my doctor called in a prescription hehe. And I'm a convert! In the past 3 months, I had an opportunity to compare prices of two medications between Northside and my local RiteAid. None were covered by insurance and going with Northside saved me a lot of money. 1) Oral typhoid vaccine: $60 here vs $75 at RiteAid 2) Allergy medication, 2month supply: $35 here vs $180 (!) at RiteAid I'm a very happy customer. read more

Hands down the best most reliable pharmacy I've ever been to. I refuse to go anywhere else. I'be been going here for 12 years now and will continue to follow them if they ever move locations again. The ladies there at the pharmacy and the pharmacists are amazing and even know me by name. Love them. read more

Everyone is so nice and helpful. They always, ALWAYS take the time and help you find things, answer your questions (without making you feel like an ass), and give you advice. They are super quick with getting your prescriptions and when my insurance wouldn't cover something they gave me some tips to get them to cover it! AND.....everything else in the store is inexpensive! WooHOO! read more

Top-notch service! Friendliest in Williamsburg.

First of all, congratulations to everyone at Northside on their new home. The space is beautiful and i hope you have many happy years there! I have been a loyal customer for more years than I can count (even when i lived in Park Slope) and will be for as long as I remain in New York. Halina and Rachel are the pharmacists of your dreams--warm, knowledgeable, efficient, and they always go the extra mile for their customers, old ones as well as brand new. They wrestle with all the sticky and incredibly boring insurance issues, an increasingly difficult and time-consuming aspect of all our lives but especially theirs, and still never pass the buck till they have done whatever they can do on their end. And in the midst of their busiest days they will still take the time to call and let you know if there's an issue with a refill, just so you won't make an unnecessary trip for an order they couldn't fill or that wasn't quite ready. Halina once offered to drop off some medicine when I was really sick and there was no one to pick it up. Tell me, is Rite Aid gonna do that? read more

So I've never written a review for any place other than a restaurant before, but I had to extend my review writing repertoire for Northside. The women who run this place are phenomenal. They are on a first name basis with most of their clientele, and when it comes to getting prescriptions filled, they go above and beyond to make sure your insurance (if you are so lucky) covers the cost for extra vacation pills and things like that. And the best part is, there is hardly ever a wait to get your prescriptions. The staff is warm and very helpful with questions one might have about their medication. I can't talk this place up enough, if you're in the neighborhood, this is the place to get your meds. read more

The pharmacist, Rachel, goes out of her way to help people. She will call doctors and hospitals to make sure prescriptions are correct and that they got everything right. read more

This continues to be my go-to pharmacy even though I moved to Bushwick two years ago and I work in the city. It's so important to support wonderful, personal small businesses ESPECIALLY when they have great great service!!! read more

The ladies at Northside Pharmacy always take the best care of me. And their products are amazing that they carry. Been a customer for 5 years and will be as long as I live in NY! read more

Gotta love n support your local pharmacy, especially northside. Great products and professional staff.

Obsessed with this pharmacy. They really are the nicest people and are so willing to go the extra mile. Going in there is a pleasure - and if I bring my pup she always gets a treat! Would never go anywhere else to fill a script. read more

Northside Pharmacy is a real gem. Over the past few months I've had so many issues with my insurance and they've really gone above and beyond to help me. I've never had a pharmacy that I've felt inclined to write a review for but these people are amazing and real and the nicest. It's really sad that small pharmacys like this are a disappearing breed, they are invaluable and I would encourage anyone who lives in this area to give them their business, you won't regret it. A BIG thank you to the team at Northside for all their hard work and diligence. read more

This is my neighborhood pharmacy. It's very European and run by the nicest people on the planet who know who I am, my name, and ask how I am. It is so much nicer than going into a big CVS with a robot behind the counter. On several occasions, my doctor hadn't called in my prescription and the pharmacist gave me a few pills to hold me over. Another time, I forgot my wallet and she did the same. The pharmacist even wrote me note when my employer questioned me about an illness. They go above and beyond. Plus, their products are AMAZING. Best luxury brands and some regular brands too. They only stock the best things. And they give my dog treats. Northside might be my favorite place in the neighborhood :) I don't know how I'll ever go back to a regular pharmacy. read more

Northside is the best pharmacy in New York. Rachel and Halina are kind, helpful and knowledgeable. They will remember your name. They will help you out in a pinch. They speak three languages that I know of (English, Spanish, Polish). They will let you know if there's a less expensive alternative. Let's face it, the majority of today's doctors are basically glorified pharmacists (except pharmacists receive far fewer kickbacks). I trust these women more than any of my doctors, and find them infinitely more compassionate and helpful. Northside is an example of how things should be. read more

Northside pharmacy has a great and helpful staff, good products and good prices. The pharmacist is totally reliable. I hope they can remain a successful business as they had to move from Bedford to Driggs but it seems to be going well as they have a solid and devoted customer base. Highly recommend Northside Pharmacy! read more

Best pharmacy in all of Williamsburg The last of the neighborhood family-run pharmacies Cheaper then CVS and much better quicker service.

I've only been coming here for a few months, but I am very glad I opted for this place over the numerous chain drug stores in the area. First, aesthetically, the place is beautiful. It is a tastefully re-done old store front that reminds me of a shop from another era. Service is personal, quick, and they are always willing to go out of their way for you. I was prescribed the wrong size of a medication and one of the pharmacists phoned my doctor immediately and rectified the problem on the spot. One time I was looking for a cream to sooth an itch, and the nice girl came out from behind the counter and presented me with various options throughout the store. Also, they sell many natural health and beauty items for less than Whole Foods, Duane Reade, and CVS. I highly recommend this place. read more

Great alternative to going to Duane Reade. They have all the essentials and a very friendly staff.

God I love the women that run this little pharmacy. Rachel and Halena are like going to a pharmacist in Europe. You know-- where they actually KNOW what they are talking about and not just filling up little bottles? I've walked in there with a cold and walked out with recommended holistic cures that I feel good about. They know their regular customers by name-- its like traveling back in time with customer service. It is small but its jam packed with all the right products-- even the more expensive hair product lines. Just love love love this place. Thanks ladies for all the wonderful years of taking care of me and my colds, my ankle sprains, my ailments and laughing with me about them. I'll miss you when I leave NYC!! read more

The pharmacists here go above and beyond. They double check the prices and make sure you are getting the best price. They give advice on prescriptions. This is the best pharmacy ever! read more

I moved out of the neighborhood, but when I need a prescription I still end up taking the train and getting it filled here. They are simply that good! read more

Rachel and her staff are always sweet and friendly. Rachel once open the store after hours because she knew how important it was that I start taking antibiotics immediately. They also have great face and hair products. read more

This is the sweetest little pharmacy. I lived down the street and used to walk there to pick up my meds. I usually never bought anything more than advil or cold meds because a lot of their hair care products are expensive but they have a really good selection. Also, a notary public works there and she is wonderful and keeps great hours. They always have my prescriptions ready 10 minutes after I call! read more

Cool place-- helped me w/contact lens products.

Everyone here is so friendly, which is a nice change in NY! Good selection of cbd / oils etc. Popped in after getting off the L train at Bedford to grab a few things and ended up spending a little more because of their good selection of beauty products and household items and pleasant atmosphere. Def will be back. read more

i love this store the staff are friendly answer your question reasonible pricesand a fantastic store to shop in and local convience im been a customer when she worked at harrico on manhattan ave over 30 yrs ago and still love it today read more

This pharmacy goes above and beyond what I ever thought a pharmacy could be. I started using it when I lived in Williamsburg and now that I've moved back to Manhattan I still go back to Williamsburg to use them as my pharmacists. The service is incredible - they will go above and beyond to help you with your medications, call your doctor, call your insurance, find you a coupon, etc. They have done this for me on several occasions, and it wasn't special treatment for return customers - they were this good from the beginning. And they are genuinely nice people. The prices on the products in the shop are also very reasonable, and they have a great selection, which they manage to fit in a modest but aesthetic and well-designed space. This place is top notch. The staff are absolute pros, the prices are reasonable, the selection is solid, and the space is great. read more

I just moved to Williamsburg and it was such a nice surprise to find this pharmacy. It reminds me of my childhood pharmacy. Not only are they so nice to deal with while getting my prescription filled, they have really excellent products.....they definitely know their "stuff". read more

It takes a great deal for me to jump onto Yelp to write a review, but everything about this Pharmacy is absolutely INCREDIBLE! This is truly the best pharmacy I have ever been to, including the entire Tri-state area! Walk into a beautiful boutique pharmacy where prices are low and the pharmacist will work to know you by name, such a refreshing experience. It gets better, not only will Northside fill a prescription they bring some of the best products (for both men and women) to the aisles. I am talking Nordstrom/salon/organic products at fantastic price points. Can't wait to lose myself in this spot again! read more

Agree with all of the positive reviews on this place. Owners/pharmacists are such good people. They do everything that you might have expected from a pharmacy 30 years ago. They know your name, your doctor, your prescriptions and have common sense - in cases where I haven't been able to call in my prescription or lost my suitcase (w/my pills), they've looked at my history and filled my prescription to get me through the weekend until I could get my doc on the phone. They also speak at least three languages (English, Spanish, Polish) and maybe more. They're open 7 days a week. I cannot say enough about them. Great people, should be supported. read more

We've been going to Northside Pharmacy for many years, and we can certainly attest to the knowledge and skill of the pharmacists. In addition to being consummate professionals they are unfailingly friendly, thoughtful and kind. In short, they are the best of the best. read more

The pharmacists offer very little help in advising customers about new prescriptions even though you must sign something stating that you were advised. I can get the same customer service in Greenpoint - meaning the full gala of Polish dismissiveness. Do not be fooled by this place either. Their products are much more expensive than the larger pharmacies around the corner. Listerine, toothpaste, etc....all much much more at Northside. Their "specialty" products can all be purchased in Greenpoint for half the price as well. read more

These guys are just the best. Pharmacists that care. Such a rare thing in this world. Five stars.

I LOVE these ladies! I now understand the beauty of having a REAL pharmacist. They are so knowledgeable, incredibly nice, and go above and beyond!!! read more

these ladies are the best. they know your name and are very helpful. duane reade doesn't even come close!

Northside Pharmacy is the perfect example of why locally-owned and operated businesses are superior to national chains. If you call, a real person answers and your question is sorted right away. If you go in and visit, the ladies are super-knowledgeable, friendly and efficient. In all the times I've gone to pick up a prescription, I've never waited more than 10 minutes dropping it off myself, and now that your Dr. has to call it in, I've never had to wait at all. Also, they have a wide selection of products, from the standard OTC brands that you know, to the harder-to-find natural and homeopathic choices that I often seek out. Love them and I'm so happy I live nearby. read more
