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!

After being with this pharmacy for over ten years I am sorry I have to find a new pharmacy. Since…read morethe beginning of this year my prescription has been delaying for over five days. Last month I was told they were too busy so they can't order my medication for me again. I had to go about three days without medication. And the pharmacy told me I can even go five to seven days without medication. And this month also because of the bank holiday they couldn't order my medication. When I phoned them to find out they disconnected me after almost 20 minutes of waiting. I phone again and the reply was pharmacist is too busy call back in two hours. What happened to this amazing pharmacy. I am done now. Thanks again for the previous services

Cameolord try to make it as easy as possible offering prescription delivery and collection, my experience was simple and quick and I was able to get my medication in minutes so I was rather pleased. I normally use Pharmacy2U for my meds as they deliver it to my door and it us much easier to manage my medication online but if I ever need emergency medication, I would definitely return! 4*

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!

It has a…read moreparticularly handy location and prevents you having to trawl all the way into the city to find a pharmacist slash make up and shower gel stockist. Although I prefer Boots by far, due to its incredibly generous advantage card scheme, Superdrug is ever so slightly cheaper and often has more offers on such as 'buy one get one free' which are always handy when you're a penniless student. The disadvantages of this store is the fact they don't offer bags and the huge misleading sign in the window which says 'students get ten percent off'... if you've purchased an N.U.S Extra card. That's right, your student card officially issued by your university with photo I.D and N.U.S stamped on the bag will not suffice to prove you are a student. Poor show, Superdrug! What utter misers...

It's not as huge as Boots or anything but its compact and serves the right purpose. It's probably saved me way too many times now and my loyalty has been fixed to it!
