What a pleasure to have an independent pharmacist who knows you and your medications, whom you can reach by phone, when needed, without your call being routed through a maze of extensions. They also carry a line of top quality products throughout the store. I love Pickwick Pharmacy and their entire staff. read more

I went here, looking for Philadelphia's famous peanut candy bar, but they didn't have it. And they were closing. They actually close pretty early, which was surprising, but the staff member working that was very nice. read more

OMG! The most phantastic pharmacy ever. I live miles away but i refuse to go anywhere else. The nicest, most courteous staff. They make you feel lije family. Love, love, love them!!!! read more

What a nice find! Old school pharmacy that also has some high end brands and a cool collection of shaving products. Very nice customer service too. read more

Absolutely 5 stars. I stumbled upon Pickwick Pharmacy by total accident when I couldn't find a prescription anywhere else and they were the only place that could fill it. So glad I found them. Ruth and Abdul are truly the sweetest people and consistently go above and beyond. They remember my name, make time for conversation, know exactly what I need, and always have what I need in stock-- I've never had to wait (can't say the same for CVS or Walgreens). The level of customer service here is unmatched. It feels personal, efficient, and genuinely caring--everything you want in a neighborhood pharmacy! read more

We wandered in here by chance and we're pleasantly surprised with the service. All of the staff were so friendly and helpful. We asked if they had an item, they did not, but looked up a good recommendation for us. They may not have a range of brands but they had a variety of products. On service alone we would highly recommend! read more

Fantastic customer service and they always have meds that are hard to find at CVS and Walgreens. They always call me when a prescription is ready to pick up. I love to support a local independent pharmacy. read more

Had a HUGE problem, called the Pharmacy at 9:15 am and everything was filled and taken care of by 12:30! Amazing, painless and just taken care of. Thank you! read more

I love these guys and have been using them for 30 years. I highly recommend them for prescriptions, but stop by for other needs also.

Friendly staff, always willing to assist! This drugstore has everything, lots of old school remedies you can't find anywhere else.

Fantastic, personal service. Very nice people working there and very convenient. They even deliver prescriptions!

Can't say enough good stuff about this wonderful family owned small business. Our family goes here for everything, even our dog's Rx. Ruth and Nick and Abdul are all so friendly and helpful and knowledgeable and they always remember our names and whatever we talked about last. And they always have treats for Fran. Amazing folks. Support them! read more

Pickwick Pharmacy - Drugstores Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Personal service is just amazing! Pharmacies typically provide good caring service, we know that and we expect that. But Pickwick goes above and beyond! For me, they've questioned Rx for accuracy of dosages and they were correct! They explain how to use and when to use the medications without rushing. And even running the Rx to the car because you can't find parking...wow! That's service. They do NOT rush when you're talking to them on the phone... you have their ears and their time. Such great service! Nick and his team are second to none in my book! Thanks for being a great pharmacy! Other pharmacies could take lessons from you guys! read more

This place is a gem, a throwback to a more personal time. Really a great pharmacy focused on people first. I was especially impressed they worked with me to find coupons on a medication I didn't know was available. And they deliver my meds free! If you want faceless corporate service, there are options. If you want a more human experience, Pickwick is your best bet in Center City. read more

Wonder of wonders, a "real" phamacy. We should have enrolled with Pickwick long ago. Prescriptions filled in a timely fashion. Delivery at your door. What more can we ask for but competence, professionalizm, responsiblity, and accountabilty as we once knew it many years ago. We are delighted. read more

I came into this pharmacy twice in the same day. The cashier was very friendly and even asked where we were visiting from. I expected the prices to be high since it was in the center of a busy business district but to my surprise, they weren't. They have a little bit of everything in there from meds, snacks, souvenirs and more. Note-Cash transactions are done in the front and credit/debit card transactions in the back. read more

Wanted to provide an update to my earlier review just to say how incredibly grateful I am that they have gone above and beyond during the lockdown. I have patronized them for years, partially because they were across from my work downtown. However, I live in Delco. Since the lockdown, they have mailed me my prescriptions, and it's been seamless. As a matter of fact, with the mail being terrible just now during the Christmas holiday they actually drove my scripts out to me!! I was amazed at their diligence in taking good care of me and my health! I can't thank them enough for it! read more

The same family owns this location and Washington Square Pharmacy. Both locations offer full pharmacy/knowledgeable pharmacists and friendly staff plus really unique items from top of the line hair products, gifts and really cool cosmetics and cosmetic tools too. I trust them with my health needs and also enjoy popping in for name brand cosmetics and hair products too! Great customer service is alive and well at Pickwick/Washington Square Pharmacies. read more

Psst...here's a little secret. OPI and Essie polishes are Buy 3 Get 1 Free. They have an amazing amazing selection of both brands, plus all of the Orly basics, Seche Vite ($2 off if you buy it out of the box), China Glaze, and more shatters/crackles than you could ever want. If you're into nail polish, this is a hidden treasure for sure! read more

Genuinely nice people and great service. Glad I found them for my prescriptions. A welcome break from the impersonal chain pharmacies. Check em out! read more

I love this pharmacy - they have a huge selection, including the sunscreen my dermatologist recommends that the chain pharmacies don't sell. For the nail polish obsessed like me, they also have a ton of Essie/Opi nail polish colors which are buy 3 get one free. I also just filled a prescription for the first time here - I needed a script that wasn't covered by my insurance so I called around for the best price. CVS had it for $98 and Pickwick had it for $15! Their customer service is great too - so friendly and helpful. read more

When I can, I like to support small businesses over larger chains, and the service at Pickwick was great. Okay, so my experience there was limited to looking at nail products (needed nail glue). They had a selection of OPI and other brands, and probably fewer items than I could find at CVS; however, the service was awesome. Prices seemed reasonable. I was trying to fix my nail in the store, realized that I needed something sharp and pointy to open the nail glue, and the clerk opened it for me. He even let me keep the sewing needle he used to open it. I highly doubt that a CVS clerk would have done the same for me. Thanks, Pickwick. I'll be picking up as much of my drugstore items at your store as I can. read more

I've been going to this pharmacy for years and even though I don't work in the city anymore ... I will never leave them. They are so pleasant and easy to deal with and they get to know you as a person. I could never go back to dealing with CVS, Rite-Aid or the rest of those slobs. Pickwick is the BEST!! read more

Every single person who works here is kind and helpful. Good selection of things. Love this place a lot.

I love the folks at Pickwick. They are always so nice and they seem to have a good team vibe whenever I go in there. I try to support this place as often as possible, especially because they are independent. They are always there to cure what ails you - and what ails me. In the past few months, I have had a long stretch of headaches. Pickwick was there fully stocked with Aleve to relieve my pain. What don't they have here? They have all your usual stuff, but then they also have nicer products in case you need to run out to grab a quick gift or two. I often check out the clearance section for fancy nail polish on discount. Not into digging in baskets - then check out all of their Essie, Butter, and Opie colors. It is definitley more than any other store around. If you play the lottery, they have one of those machines too. Just note that it is cash only up front and they take plastic in the back with a $5 minimum. read more

Support the independent pharmacies before they all disappear! Pickwick has a great selection of cosmetics, too - like OPI and Essie nail polishes. Glad they are still here. read more

Top-notch customer service with a friendly and knowledgeable staff. This is an old-school pharmacy and they carry a plethora of goods such as health and beauty care products, medical supplies and devices as well as gifts. Please support this small business or we'll all be left in a sea of CVS and Walgreens. read more

Pharmacist did not fill my son's subscription for amoxicillin correctly. It was supposed to be for 10 days. They filled it for 7. When i came back and asked them what I should do, They were very rude and did not even give me a chance to explain the problem. Told me they had other people waiting in line (there was only one person behind me). Even after my doctor called them, they still treated me in a very condescending manner. Gave me a measuring cup as a parting gift, because supposedly, my measuring cup was not 'very accurate' . If you don't want to deal with a Pharmacy that can't fill a prescription properly, and then give you an attitude, then don't use this place. read more

I am picky and never give 5 stars but I give them to Pickwick. They are everything I want in a pharmacy. Here are the top 3 things I like about them. 1. Always pleasant and efficient. 2. Maria, the Pharmacist, is extremely knowledgable about medications, as well as most conditions and diseases that you can think of, and is very generous in sharing that information with you if you are interested. 3. THEY DELIVER!!! And they will make every effort to work around your schedule and your convenience. Like many others have mentioned, I like to support independent pharmacies such as Pickwick. I can guarantee you that you won't get this superior service at a big chain. I certainly never have. When I moved to town, I searched and searched to find a place like this. It was more than worth the effort. read more

Best pharmacy in my entire life. Best kindness, service and one instance smarter than my cardiologist who prescribed two meds that after Maria checked her registry and discovered possible side effect, called my cardiologist who changed my med to another that did not have the side effect. Always s go out of their way to be the best professional, kind and caring pharmacy. Best! In tgis day when Cvs of the world treat you cattle nice to know there are still kind caring and incredibly skilled pharmacists - thank you Maria, Ruth and Abdul - you are the best!!!!! We are lucky to have you in our lives - feel so much safer with you all close at hand and so caring! read more

Staff is extremely nice and helpful! They also have a lot of stuff you wouldn't expect, including school supplies, shoelaces and birthday cards. Prices probably cheaper than the big competitors as well. read more

I've patronized Pickwick Pharmacy over the years when I worked nearby and I never had a "real" issue...until recently. I needed a bottle of peroxide and was walking by Pickwick, so I decided to get it there instead of CVS (support small, independent businesses, yeah? Not). When I entered, I looked at the ceiling signage to see which aisle would have the peroxide. First aisle. I found it instantly. So I bent over to pick up a bottle and began inspecting it for an expiration date. As I was inspecting the bottle, a young man who works there saunters into the aisle I was in, stops just short of me and begins looking around at the products in a leisurely way. My first thoughts were, "Is this the cashier? And did he leave his post to follow me? Really?!!!" So I looked over at the cashier area and saw an empty chair behind the counter. Sure enough, he'd left his post to follow me. Now I'm thinking; "Wait a minute. I'm cute. I'm dressed well. My face is BEAT! And he actually thinks I'm going to steal a product that costs less than $2?" So I put the peroxide back on the shelf and stormed passed him in a huff, and out the door. Of course, as I'm walking down the street, I'm thinking of ALL the things I wished I would've said and done. Anywho, because of that, I will never spend another cent at Pickwick Pharmacy. Do with that what you will. read more

We were in town for a show at the convention center and needed some Hollywood Fashion Tape for our mannequins. Pickwick Pharmacy had the tape in stock and also many other unique and hard to find beauty / style items. I ended up spending at least an hour shopping and buying an arm-load of items. read more

"where nail polish goes to die" as my colleague would say. If you need a discontinued nail polish, chances are you will find it at Pickwick! Theycarry all kinds of polish including OPI and Essie. They also have a pharmacy in the back of the store. I went here for typical items like shampoo and sunscreen but there is so much in the tiny aisles of this store. It's nice to still see a thriving 'mom and pop' type of pharmacy/drug store. read more

In such a small little space, this drugstore is jam packed with hundreds and hundreds of items! I could walk around for a solid hour looking at all the products they have on their shelves. It has all your favorite brands for all your favorite products, as well as many others.Psst...here's a little secret. OPI and Essie polishes are Buy 3 Get 1 Free. They have an amazing amazing selection of both brands, plus all of the Orly basics, Seche Vite ($2 off if you buy it out of the box), China Glaze, and more shatters/crackles than you could ever want. read more

this is a nice, little, independent pharmacy in the heart of the business district in Center City. They seem to have everything you need from a pharmacy, so, why not support this business? It's close to my office. Staff is always nice. They still sell postage stamps for .55, which is convenient and there is a postal service in the1700 Market building to mail your letter. Pickwick is open 6 days a week. (Closed Sunday) read more

Friendly...Professional...and although they didn't have what I wanted ...they advised me on a similar product

Not only do they have pretty much anything you need -including stamps!- they are also very friendly. They have a huge selection of quality products, they accept credit cards for small purchases (like $5 worth of stamps) and are nice and helpful! read more

I can't possibly rave enough about Pickwick Pharmacy! I've been going there for years. I'm on several medications, and they are always super friendly, accommodating and professional! They KNOW you and work hard for your business! They are the epitome of a mom and pop store that CARES!! read more

WOW the service here is remarkably nice! Even my first time visiting, it felt so personal. I came here because it's the closest place to buy Piperwai charcoal deodorant... & I'll be coming back for both that & the kind people! read more
