A couple of Saturdays ago, I was walking over to Massey Hall to take in a concert. I normally head…read moreinto a concert or sporting event with a handful of items, such as a credit or debit card, my phone, and my car keys. I realized that I needed mints. I saw this Shoppers Drug Mart (SDM). It was perfect to get some. This SDM used to be Friar's Tavern. I grew up knowing that it was the Hard Rock Cafe. It shut down a few years ago. It is now a drug store. It's also a heritage Toronto site. Its location is decent. It's across from both CF Eaton Centre and Yonge-Dundas Square. There is a Green P parking lot under the latter, so you could technically park and casually shop here. This SDM has two floors. It does have an elevator to get you between the floors. Sadly, it was out of commission when I dropped by. If you require an elevator to get you between floors, you are out of luck here, unless it's now fixed. I walked up the stairs. I liked that it had a mini grocery store. I saw fresh produce, salads, and more. I found my mints. I got some peppermint Excel mints. Yay! There was a single human at the cashout area. I ended up using a self-checkout. I only had mints, so the transaction was simple. I paid with a debit card. I had my PC Optimum barcode scanned from my SDM app. Done! I'm glad that I got mints. They came in handy while watching the concert. I didn't really need a drink, so I saved a bit not getting one at Massey Hall and having minty-fresh breath. This SDM is cool. I like the location. The only downside is that the store closes at 9 pm. As a result, you can't get groceries or snacks after a show. (483)

This is your run of a mill Shoppers Drug Mart (SDM) Though…read moreit does seem like a decent sized SDM sadly the lack of variety pushes it back to the countless SDM one find everywhere. If you are looking for something in particular I would call in first. Staff is poorly trained and if you manage to find one most of them are more interested in in socializing among themselves. All is not lost here though as they always have some promos on staples items like milk, bread etc. There is a private parking lot on top accessible from an odd side street of the main drag.

In mid-August, I was in this area and was parked in a parking lot under this Shoppers Drug Mart…read more After spending time eating and shopping in this neighbourhood, before I left, I dropped by this drugstore to check it out. There was a panhandler sitting in front of this store. I never have change on me, so I never can help that person out. This SDM has two floors. Naturally, I saw stairs and walked up them. I then realized that it has an escalator going up and an elevator. I could have saved some energy. Ugh! The main floor has beauty products, refreshments, the checkout area, and more. I was more interested in getting snack items for a work potluck the following day, which was why I almost immediately headed upstairs. The second floor does have a decent grocery section. You can get fresh produce and drinks. There are frozen foods, including boxed meat, seafood, and pizza. You can also find a good selection of cheese and dairy products. Coffee, tea, cookies, and ice cream are all on this floor. Maybe it was a good thing that I walked upstairs, so I could walk off what I was about to indulge in! I found some nachos that would be perfect for the hummus that I was bringing to this potluck. I grabbed a bag. It took a while for me to leave the second floor. I loved everything from the Squishmallows and vitamins section, to the travel items and pop varieties. I paid for my items downstairs. I ended up doing the self-checkout kiosk. I scanned everything, including my PC Optimum card. I then paid with my debit card. Done! It was nice to visit this SDM. I have only been to two SDM stores with two floors in my life. There are pros and cons, but this one was great. (386)

I scheduled a COVID test online and picked the earliest spot they have which is 10am so I can go…read morehome to the US within 24 hours. I got there 15-20 minutes early and I was the first one to get seen for a test. The pharmacist, Katie was super nice and was the only person in the pharmacy when I got there. She got my paperwork and all the supplies ready while I was at the counter, and I was taken in to a small room to get my nasal swab test done. She told me that the results will be ready in 15 minutes so, I walked around and up and down the 2 storeys while I waited. Shelves were neatly organized. They have magazines, a little bit of grocery items including fresh fruit, lotions, creams, makeup and other things you'll typically find at a pharmacy. There are stairs, an elevator, and escalators. I came back to the pharmacy (2nd floor) and there were 5 more people waiting to get their COVID test done 2 of which didn't have an appointment and were demanding to get tested because they do it all the time at this particular location without an appointment. Oh, the entitlement. How hard is it to make an appointment online?! At this time, 2 pharmacists are now behind the counter. The appointments are scheduled in 15-minute intervals. The other pharmacist was explaining to another customer that her flight (to a country that requires test results no more than 24hrs old upon boarding) is not until more than 24 hours so she needs to get her test done the next day but the customer was insisting she needed to get her test done that day. Both pharmacists remained calm and collected even with these difficult people. When all that nonsense cleared out, I got my results and went on my merry way with 6 hours before my flight had to leave.

I think I've calmed down enough since last week to finally write this review…read more I went to the cash out and I had 10 items. After ringing them all through, I watched to see which items would display a sale price -- at Shopper's, the sale prices only appear once the total bill is calculated (so they ring in at full price, and at the end they drop to sale price if on sale). I saw that one of the items didn't go on sale, so I informed the cashier Saada that I didn't want one item. I figured she'd do the simple void, and I could be on my merry way. This is assuming she knew how to void an item. After clicking some random buttons, she said, okay it's done - but I could still see the item listed, and the total bill price hadn't changed. It's still there, I explained, pointing it out to her. It's not there, she told me again, and she was already getting frustrated. 100% sure I was correct (I can add up ten items in my head and could tell it was still in there), I just said, "Ok, let's just see what happens on the final receipt when it comes out," and went to pay -- but at this point Saada decided just to delete ALL the items. "Starting again," she said, and started grabbing items to re-scan them. At this point, a line was forming behind me. Each time she ran in an item, I put it in my reusable bag -- again, we took away that one item I wanted voided, so I just had NINE items -- and then the total was $4 less than last time BECAUSE THAT ITEM WAS MISSING. Upon seeing it wasn't the same total (and still convinced she had voided the other item), Saada reaction was to ACCUSE ME OF STEALING. "Where are you hiding it? Where's the other item? Is it in your hand?" etc etc for about five minutes, grabbing the items out of my bag and counting and recounting....this is the worst customer service I've ever had in my entire life. My decades and decades of life. Time spent in Europe. Times when people didn't even give me service at all. ANY OTHER TIME WAS BETTER THAN THIS. Finally, after this 15 minute-so-far transaction, I just said, NEVER MIND and left the store with nothing. Worst part was I WANTED THOSE NINE ITEMS. The next day I called to speak to a manager. I relayed this story to him. He said, "Okay, I'll talk to her." .... "Have a good day!" and that was it. Never again. This time I mean it!!
