Pretty clean store, nice parking lot so can't complain. People that work here are pretty nice here. I had to buy a clipper card and loaded it up here and the ladies were pretty helpful. read more

The pharmacy dept. treated me very poorly. I went to the pharmacy to pick up my antibiotics. I paid the man behind the pharmacy desk and he said I needed to go to the other window first. I waited behind a quiet and older gentleman who did not seem to be treated with respect. After he was done, I went up the the other window. I waited there for a good 5 minutes. Not once did any 4 or 5 pharmacy workers look my way or ask if I needed help. There was a phone ringing the entire time, and nobody bothered picking it up. There were two female pharmacy workers in front of me. One had a McDonalds bag in her hand. They were both casually talking to one another. They seemed obvlivious to everything around them. I had already paid for my medicine. And just needed a quick consultation from the pharmacist who was nearby. After waiting 5 minutes, I asked one of the female workers if I could speak to the pharmacist for my medicine. She asked me, "do you need to pick it up?" I responded, "No, I already paid for it. It's right there." She then looked at me in annoyance. Almost like she was puzzled with me. She squinted her eyes when she looked at me. Like I bothered her with my request. I'm normally a pretty chilly person but the disrespectful way she treated me made me upset. And rightfully so. Also, there does not appear to be any kind of leadership in the pharmacy dept. If you can casually stand there with a McDonalds bag in your hand. And talk about non-related work issues in front of waiting customers...that is a problem in my eyes. This pharmacy needs to change. And I will never use them again. read more

always expect slow service at walgreens. is it all walgreens that just don't know how to operate? i think so. I've been to plenty and all the same result: bring something to do cause you gonna wait and wait and wait. wanted to get passport photo. there was a sign saying printer down so i asked the guy and he said lets try it. waited about 30 minutes just for him to print it with a giant looking stain on the photo. waste of time. pharmacy, wanted to get a prescription and that took about an hour. then standing in line after it was ready took another hour. cash registers take about 10 minutes when its not busy. make sure your battery is fully charged so you can play games or check email or something. otherwise you'll be bored. read more

Dumbest customer service people! They dont even know the difference of the reguster rewards and sale price! The Filipina who i think is the head cashier thinks she knows evrything and doesnt listen to customers.very impolite and tones up her voice while talking. read more

24 hours and carries almost everything you'll ever need. Love the photo center and love the pharmacy, and even more I love the friendly staff. They are always friendly and willing to help. What more can you ask for from a neighborhood drug store? read more

There was a really rude assistant manager/manager type person who I was unable to get the name of, due to my rage. I made several complaints on the Walgreens website to no avail. I suspect customer service is not a top priority in this store and that the employees are out to humiliate their customers. Hence, I highly advise you to avoid this Walgreens at all costs. read more

Only 24/7 pharmacy that's not in Oakland and doesn't require paying toll. Other than that, it's a Walgreens like any other. But it earns the extra star for being open all the time! read more

This one is slightly crappier than the other store in Alameda. Overall still ok. It is just a standard pharmacy store with nothing special about it. I never go here because the other one is more convenient. THe one time I did go I thought "I still like the other one better because the people seemed happier." read more

Glad it is open 24 hours for prescriptions. Pharmacy staff is very helpful. The store carries lot if merchandise and is always well stocked and clean. Fun to roam and see what new merchandise they have. read more

Fairly typical Walgreens; nothing special. The prices are a bit higher than going to the Safeway near by. I like this Walgreens better than the other one on Webster, although I gave them both 3 stars. This would be a 3+ and the other more of a 3-, I guess. read more

This Walgreen's pharmacy department is horrible and nurses will lose your prescription (twice) and the doctor (manager) ain't gonna do shit about it. Just don't send your prescription there unless you have to. They are horrible, terrible, dump, just don't use them unless you have. read more

April and Dijuan were great, wish there were more lovely people like these that make the world go round. God bless you both and continue to share your love and kindness. read more

I will never be back at this Walgreens. The cashier that rung me up didn't even say "Hello how are you today?" "Did you find everything you were looking for?" "Do you have your Walgreens card." Nothing. Just plain rude. She didn't even tell me my total because she was having another conversation with her co workers. I had to look on the screen for my total. I won't be back. read more

I specifically come to this Walgreens which is further away due to the TOP NOTCH pharmacy. The good: - 24/7 store & pharmacy! - drive through pharmacy - pharmacy has very good service (quick, polite, calls docs many times to get authorizations, etc) - inside tends to be well stocked and usually well organized - located in a nice area - always plenty parking The bad: - drive through can only hold 3 cars before it starts blocking traffic read more

SO impressed by the wide assortment and healthful vegetarian options in this Walgreens' new deli/to go section. Looking forward to sampling the wraps, sushi, soups and sandwiches - better selection than Trader Joe's! read more

Cashier Line is always long at this store and is again today. In a hurry today. Saw two employees at photo counter so tried to pay but got turned down. He said he's in training with new equipment so can't serve customers. Training should be done remotely, off hours or have a person still to serve customers. I left the items and walked out figured they don't need my money here. read more

Just had an awesome experience in the photo department. I was helped by Edrienne who was extremely knowledgeable with cameras and film. He went out of his way to give me advice on how to take care and use my new camera. He was a great help. Great experience at Walgreens thanks to him. read more

Went here after my gf had oral surgery to pick up post-surgery meds (around 1030am on a Wed). The dr office had called in the rx's while she was in surgery, and were told it would be ready in 45 minutes, we arrived over an hour after the call. Waited in a line for about 18 minutes, then were told they needed to get the rx's together, the pharm tech said, "oh they called it in, but didn't say you'd be right in. should only be 10-15 minutes" Doubtful, I heard them call it in myself. Ok, 10-15 minutes more, NBD, right? WRONG. Over 35 minutes later, after asking them how much longer it would take (and observing a line that was at least 5-6 people deep for 35 minutes, inefficient service for flu vaccines being the primary cause), she was able to get her meds and get out (after waiting in another line for mandatory consultation). They advertise 24 hour pharmacy, perhaps they're referring to the time you have to wait to pick up meds? read more

Worst prescription service possible. Just switched from Rite Aid after moving. Constant long lines. They seem to fill ten times the prescriptions that Rite Aid does with only the same number of counter staff, namely, one. read more

I had to stop in here early in the morning to get some over the counter meds. I felt miserable, and I sounded and looked miserable. Got my meds at the pharmacy, and the pharmacist told me to "Be Well". I felt better just by hearing his sincere remark. Very sweet man. If only the world had more sweet men... read more

I love that everybody knows me here. It's like a neighborhood store, as it should be. Last Christmas I decided to get an artificial tree at the last minute and they were so nice to me...the manager is a very very nice man and he and the security person/staff person were so helpful and took the tree off of the shelf and carried it to my car. Maybe for somebody else that isn't a big deal, but for me it was....he was so nice and so generous and it meant a lot to me. The staff is so sweet and patient on every interaction. i have not met a rude person there ever. Yay Walgreens, this is why they are one of the top companies in the United States. read more

I have never used the pharmacy because when I have been in the area of the pharmacy while shopping there, I hear some very frustrated customers. My advise to others -- stop using their pharmacy and go to CVS for example. CVS is efficient and professional. I do use Walgreens for items that are not medical and I've always been satisfied with their inventory. read more

1 star is too many. AVOID THIS PHARMACY. It is a MIRACLE when I get my medication without some ridiculous struggle. These are the most incompetent morons I have ever encountered in any context. Seriously, my expectations for humanity are lowered every single day and yet they never sink low enough to allow me to fathom the unprecedented stupidity that is displayed by every single staff member on a daily basis. read more

clearly the pharmacy does not like answering phone calls. i was told i was told only one caller ahead at 825PM on a friday night, and was constantly transferred to a pharmacist only to be put back on hold without a word, multiple times. read more

The pharmacy is not open 24 hours. It's open 23 hours and the hours that they are not open are not posted anywhere. It's incredibly misleading and frustrating when you drive 10 miles at 2 am for a much needed prescription only to be told that you have a wait an hour until they are staffed again. When I called their manager to ask them to update their hours, their response was lackluster and said they'd just pass it up. read more

My wife and I both went to Walgreens to get our annual flu shots. This was on the 21st of September 2012. WE are both over 65 years of age and needed the flu shot for seniors. I specifically asked the clerk to make sure that we were getting the shot for seniors, as a matter of fact I asked the clerk 3 TIMES and each time she assured me that we were in fact getting the proper shots! We got our shots and left the store. Two weeks later we both were at our doctors office for and unrelated matter when our doctor told us that Walgreens had given us both the WRONG flu shots. I returned to Walgreens and spoke with the Pharmacist who checked our records and confirmed that we did in fact get the WRONG shots. He then told us that their store DID NOT HAVE the senior shots on the 21st of September and had just gotten the senior vaccine the other day, which was well into October. I can only assume that the clerk knew that they didn't have the PROPER vaccine and flat out lied to us. One thing is certain, my wife and I will never darken Walgreens door again and will from now on get all of our vaccinations at our doctors office! read more

WORST FUCKING PHARMACY EVER!!!BEEN in a car accident they gave me the wrong meds and also denied the main one I needed without giving me reason why read more

they need to hire more people in the pharmacy the line was too long i was standing in line getting my medicine that was ready 30 min before t read more

The worst customer service ever. I went to purchase a few items and on my way out I hear an employee yelling at several young girls who are walking out of the store with a bag. The employee was telling them that they didn't pay for something. As me and my children walked to the car which was parked right outside the door another employee comes from the store and starts taking pictures of my car. I get out of the car and explain to them that I was not the person they were looking for and she brushed me off while walking back into the store. I then go into the store to let her know I'm not the person and noticed that the first employee was telling her the same thing that it wasn't me. When I asked to speak to a manager a lady who was not the manager comes from the back with an attitude as if I was bothering her and said you can call the 800 number and here's the managers information. about 10 minutes after leaving I called the store and asked to speak with the manager and yet another lady who wasn't the manager gave me the same information but was very rude. I have never been treated so badly and with such disrespect. As I was being profiled and harassed no one asked me for a receipt nor said what I was accused of stealing. No one even went after the ladies who were suspected of stealing. No one should be treated this way. Needless to say I'm not doing business there anymore. This location needs to change or be shut down. read more

This Walgreens only gets 2 starts because; 1 its open 24/7, and 2 i can upload my pictures from a computer and send the directly to the photo shop. Other than that it lacks a whole bunch of customer service, Most of the employees have a mean mug on their face and just want you in and out as soon as possible, with as few words as possible. read more

aahhhh, this place is consistent w/ all other walgreen's pharmacy I've gone to (Walnut Creek on main st and Antioch on Hill Crest)...... 1) They takes 2 Hours to get ur prescription....(yes w/ a capital H for being on hold on the phone for very very long). 2) They always had my prescription medication.... 3) Their phone service has an IVR, which is nice. 4) They have a drive through 5) They are open 24 hours... very nice. read more

cool people work there and its in a good location with plenty of parking. i hit them up for H20 sometimes before my workout, or my forbidden pleasure snickers peanut butter when im off work. they seem to always have them in stock. they also have a little healty section that's pretty cool. read more

been in line for the pharmacy drive thru with just 1 person ahead of me for 25 minutes now. slowest service ever. hate this pharmacy. the worst. read more

The customer service here I would say is very rude and unprofessional. I just remember receiving the unfriendliest customer service from any drug store EVER. I don't want to sound biased by going into details so I'll keep it short and simple. If you're in a rush, sure you can go here, but I wouldn't recommend it if you have better options to choose from. read more

24 hour pharmacy sounds convenient but their drive through is so slow, average of 30 minutes each time I go there. Awful!

The pharmacy staff is horrible. Need of customer services refresh! They are rude and make people wait in line for no reason. Time to move to a different pharmacy. read more

Horrible lines at the pharmacy (understaffed). I went twice to pick up my prescription and both times the lines were excessively long. I had to head out of town on business and called the pharmacy and specifically ask them to hold my prescription. When I went to pick it up, they didn't have my prescription. They had put it back into inventory. Then when they finally got it ready they did not use my on file insurance -- which was on file and they had used it on this prescription many times before. read more

I had not used Walgreens pharmacy until a couple months ago when my husband had surgery - we wanted 24 hour service close to home. We had a LOT of prescriptions to fill, which were complicated and often changed. I must say every employee with the pharmacy was very nice and helpful, several went out of their way to help remedy an issue. I will say they are VERY slow, so plan to wait for quite a while, either for walk in or drive thru. But overall, the pharmacy staff is great. read more

they ususally have what i want although target is cheaper. i would like to give one star ratings to the earlier yelpers with the service dogs. i have never read more snotty, snide, and racist remarks on yelp EVER. yeah the assistant manager was out of line and he shouldn't have made a scene the way he did. give the man the benefit of the doubt. maybe he didn't fully understand that not just blind people need service dogs. i think it's appalling and disgusting that kim D and blayne D would demand such understanding and compassion from somebody when they are unwilling to extend it themselves, especially when they both stooped sooooo low as to call him names like "uneducated" and "ignorant" shame on you. hypocrites. you people make me sick. read more

Been a long time buyer from the walgreens on Otis Drive in Alameda. I had more problems with them actually filling a prescription as they refused to fill one as was directed by my physician. Not only did they refuse (been filling it for the last 5 years) but they charged me $269.00 for a prescription that I now get at Versailles Pharmacy for $35.00!!!!! We changed all of our meds to our local pharmacy and found that we have saved thousands of dollars!!! Now we walk in the door and have our meds handed to us with a smile, no line to stand in, and save a bundle of cash!!! My advice....for get Walgreens as they are money makers and customer service friendly!! read more
