Highly recommend . Chris and his team deliver friendly, efficient, and accommodating service. They go above and beyond to communicate with your doctors to resolve any issues that arise. The downside is the often grumpy customers who should be grateful not to be standing in line at CVS down the street. I hope people don't discover this great pharmacy and ruin it. read more

Chris is great. We've been using Von's pharmacy since it was next to Baskin Robbin's before they fancied the place up. I'm not a fan of "closing for lunch", but I'd rather have the people dispensing my family's medications satiated & focused, than hungry & distracted. The pharmacy staff are always helpful & informative. read more

Quick, easy, always a smile. I actually look forward to going to the pharmacy. Thank you to the Vons Pharmacy!

I've scheduled most of my shots here since 2020. They are on-time, professional, and happy to answer my questions. I appreciate the private room for receiving the shots. The pharmacists and staff are efficient and helpful when I have prescriptions filled, too. A clean, well appointed pharmacy with small gifts & sundries for sale & comfortable chairs for waiting, if needed. read more

Vons Pharmacy in Montecito refused to honor GoodRX.com listed lower price, after I'd switched two prescriptions there. They actually charged $30 more than CVS pharmacy I previously used. Also clerk told me she couldn't run my savings card (goodrx, etc, for non generic drugs, which is a lie). She just didn't want to be bothered. Also the Von's pharmacy app advertises $75. off of groceries for switching prescriptions and that was also a "bait and switch" I was unable to claim. Very angry at being deceived this way. Medications are too expensive, especially for seniors read more

Negligent and sloppy. Forgot my life and death medication for 24 hours more than once . Dont trust this place with important stuff like your medication without checking. read more

If I could do zero star for one of the pharmacy staff, I would. She is Asian with strong accent. We made an appointment for COVID shot. She was annoyed when I asked her about the free covid home test kit and ROLLED her eyes in front me. She then told me that it was not covered by insurance which shocked me. I went another Vons to verify if that's true, I was told it IS covered by insurance and I was given the covid home test kits. I plan to go back and ask her why! read more

I really like the Vons pharmacy in Montecito. I know of two pharmacist that work there and both of them have been really really helpful. Tiffany is one of the pharmacist and she's just so pleasant and the other one is a guy and I don't remember his name but they both go out of their way to get you the best deal on your prescription, and explain briefly how to use them if you want an explanation. Who gives you help like that anymore. I would really recommend this pharmacy for excellent service and really genuinely kind people that are doing their job. Such a concept. read more

I'm giving this review solely based on my experience receiving my booster vaccine. An actual nurse from cottage was there to administer it. She asked me how I responded to the second shot, and I told her I had a pretty serious reaction. Instead of just pushing me through, she told me the risks of receiving the booster and asked if I still wanted to go ahead with it. I did, and she explained some things I could do help in case I developed a similar reaction. No appointment needed. Painless. Plus they have several other vaccines you can receive there, which is where I'll be going from now on. This was a tenfold improvement from where I revived the first two jabs. The pharmacy staff could be a little nicer, especially to the older people who were in front of me. I know it's a busy time of year, and it's easy to become impatient, but sometimes older people need you to repeat yourself. It's not their fault they can't hear you through your mask. Take the time to be kind! Tis the season. read more

I had a 10:00 am appointment for a vaccine. I arrived at 9:50. There were at least five employees and no one else waiting for a shot. I got my shot at 10:20. Why did I make an appt. No explanation. read more

I'm convinced only those who have a negative experience tend to write reviews about pharmacies. Those who appreciate the staff and location usually don't bother. So I'd like to say that I have always been greeted in a home town kind of way, the front desk to the pharmacist has always given their full attention even when it's busy, they make sure you know where you're at in the queue. I switched from CVS four months ago and don't plan on every using another location in Santa Barbara. read more

We went here to enquire about travel covid tests. The pharmacist was outright rude and super unhelpful. She basically started off by saying the US are in a mess and disorganised re Covid tests have not got their act together and suggested we travel to LAX to enquire. When we asked if there was no one in the area she said, "that's the information I've given you, take it or leave it" and walked off! She was so grumpy and a terrible advert for Vons. We then went to San Ysidro pharmacy and guess what, the pharmacist was so lovely and helpful and produced the testing kits. read more

I LOVE this pharmacy and am disappointed to see so many negative reviews here. My husband and I have been here for our covid vaccinations and they were thorough and kind. The pharmacist, Chris, is an angel on earth IMO. I got my first shot in LA because I was eager to get started and they weren't available at that time in SB. The county told me I would have to go back to LA for all subsequent shots and that someone he knew had to fly back to Arizona for his second shot! While it would not have been a disaster to have returned to LA, I live in Santa Barbara and it was so convenient to be able to go to Von's Pharmacy at Coast Village Rd. Chris understood my situation and he was able to fit me in when they had sufficient vaccines to do it. They are always careful about how they do things. We filled out an extensive questionnaire with health history and for the booster a nurse was available all day to do the shots. Very professional. And it is quiet and private there. I can't say enough good things. read more
