I'm on Yelp and actually reviewing a Walgreens... and it's awesome. I get my Rx's here, while I'm there I will pick up lunch... sometimes I stop by and grab morning coffee... and yeah, I even will go out of my way since I know grabbing sushi or a sandwich here will be easy, convenient, and tasty. Favs - the spicy tuna roll is well-packed and tasty... - the sandwiches on pretzel rolls are great - they have a take care clinic - bakery (peanut butter brownies) and froyo Skip - the veggie hummus wrap has too much onion or radish... yuk read more

I've been to plenty of Walgreens in the city and this is my favorite. It is very large and seems to have everything. Aside from the typical offerings of Walgreens, it has a wide offering of fresh food, including fruits and vegetables, as well as a juice bar and TONS of beer, booze, wine. And cheese? Really. I've heard they have a nail bar upstairs but I've never had the time to check it out. Considering its location, the place is kept up pretty well. I was surprised. Employees are also friendly and sometimes even ask you if you need help with anything. Seriously. If you are looking to go to Walgreens in the loop, go the extra mile and trek over to this location instead of the one that is likely 2 blocks away from you. It is worth it. read more

Where else can you get a hard stiff shot and a umbrella.... This place is classy, staff is polite and assists you in most requests. They were offering whiskey samples to adults and I had to decline, I was still drunk from the night before. Used their bathroom after getting off the train and that was it. Bathroom was clean. Many options especially adult drinks can be found here. read more

Had a great manicure at the Walgreens Look Boutique. Sara C. was wonderful and did a great job! For only $10, this place can't be beat. read more

The Pharmacist is really friendly, helpful and remembers who people are. It actually feels as if you are visiting a small town pharmacy, and this is especially rare because the loop is full of so many people that go in and out all the time. The Walgreens I go to now in the Gold Coast is ok, but this one is for sure the best! read more

This is hands-down the swankest Walgreens I've ever seen. Great fresh-made food section and a surprisingly well stocked liquor department with lots of top-shelf choices. Plus you can still buy typical drugstore stuff like a cheap t-shirt at 11:30pm. (One of my colleagues needed to do this.) Convenient location in the Loop at State & Randolph, open 'til midnight. read more

Now serving Ramen!!! This is my second time having their Ramen. Serving both Shoyu and Tonkotsu style ramen. Located at the same stand that makes sushi, which is also my go to for good sushi at a good price for lunch. The broth for their ramen has so much flavor and you really don't need to add anything to it. It's filling and it's delicious. The staff is very friendly and they make it right there in front of you. I liked the Tonkotsu more, but the Shoyu I tried today was very good also. Pretty much can't go wrong with whichever one you order. The roast pork they serve with the ramen is super tender and very tasty. Highly recommended to stop by for a quick, affordable lunch if you're in the area. Plus, it's walgreens, so you can pick up pretty much anything else you need while you're there also. read more

Walgreens - Shoyu Ramen from Walgreens at State and Randolph. - Drugstores Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

This is just for the advocate walk-in clinic. They don't take blue Cross blue choice, apparently, even though it's a PPO. This may explain their somewhat quizzical attitude towards me and the nearly open disdain upon hearing that I just wanted to recover quickly from my head cold. Wanted to combine the trip with my flu shot. Now, I could have gotten the flu shot, because Walgreens accepts my insurance, but Advocate health care does not. They told me not to get the flu shot if I wasn't feeling well, anyways, perhaps to forestall the absurdity of the situation. I left very upset. I didn't want to give the store my business after the Advocate person recommended Sudafed for my symptoms. The pharmacy here is 5 stars, the store itself is probably the nicest Walgreens I have ever patronized. However, the Advocate walk-in clinic should not be cordoned off from the Walgreens corporation. I should be able to get a flu shot from either employee. Or this should be more clearly communicated. I don't know how I'm not "in-network" with them when it's a PPO, and whatever, I didn't believe them that they couldn't bill insurance, I got the impression that they just didn't like me and didn't think I really needed a strep throat culture and wanted me to go. read more

This is the absolute worst Walgreens ever. Not only are they rude and uneducated with their speaking manor but also sloppy in dress as well. Also be prepared to pay 7 cents if you want a bag for your purchases. Yes that's correct I went in spent 30 dollars and then was refused a bag for my items. Yes REFUSED is the proper word. I was spending around 100 dollars a week here. It was my spot for break time but not anymore and I hope this review sways people from going. I'd give it zero stars if I could. read more

Terrible customer service. Pharmacy members should notify their customers when orders are out of stock and unavailable to avoid inconvenience. No regard for this and complete waste of my time read more

OMG! I have been on Yelp for a bit, but after being in this store I had to write a review finally! I think I am in love. I came on a lunch break on Thursday and was surprised to see this mega Walgreens. First thing I noticed was the sushi and because I am a dare devil I dived right in. Yum! I had the crunchy shrimp roll and it was amazing. After polishing it off I went upstairs to find a Take Care clinic, which is a good thing to know. Turning the corner I found what they called the Look Boutique. Wow, there were a lot of products I had never even heard of, but the ladies explained what they were and where they came from. Then, I found the gem...a nail salon!!! It's so cute! And all the polishes are either Essie or OPI. And it's $10 for a manicure!!! When I asked if I could get a manicure I was told by one of the manicurists that they were working by appointment only just till the hoopla died down, but I could try to do a walk in at a later time. After making my appointment for a later date, I was about to head out when of the manicurist caught me and told me she had a no show and could take me then. I had an amazing manicure with Stacy, who informed me of the Walgreens/ Look Boutique history. She also helped me understand why my cuticles are in a shambles. As I was drying she recommended I return next week to help repair the damage, but didn't force product down my throat or put me down for neglecting my nails. She even recommended seeing her or the other nail tech, Katherine, for future appointments. I already made my appointment with Katherine for next time, I wanna see how they compare because Stacy was pretty good and had me in stitches. Cons: Booking system is not put together well, but its a new concept so I had to forgive. The food is pricy and there is no home goods section from what I can find. I will be here a lot so we will see if all the kinks work themselves out. read more

Walgreens, I love you. Even though you probably charge just about double for almost everything you sell. Nothing worse than being away from home. With a migraine. And you throw up your only prescription medication pill. Sucks, don't it. But it's amazing what over the counter migraine pills can do. Oh, and a bag of ice on your head. read more

Never, ever going there by choice again. Service was extremely slow. Cashier never looked me in the eye. Had to wait to leave because there was a fight in the foyer between a security guard and someone he escorted from the store. read more

My experience from a couple weeks ago... I'm a regular jo shmo, working a 9 to 5. I don't make $135 an hour but i like to think that my time is still valuable. I called the Walgreen's on Dearborn and Washington cuz I needed passport photos taken. They said "sure, come in!" I walk over in the pouring rain. The tech takes me in the back. She has a camera that's from like 2004, yes back when Brad (that beautiful bastard) was cheating on Jennifer. Anyway, the tech's trying to take my picture but the camera's not letting her. Turns out, the SD card is full.... And she can't delete the photos. And they don't have another SD card. And they don't have another camera. And what the fuck. it's 2016, i should be able to go to a walgreens and get my passport photo and pap smear done at the same time by a robot that looks like a Kardashian. Pretty sure they already have this technology in Tokyo. So i'm annoyed, I really need those pictures today. I ask them to check with the State and Randolph location...if I can get my photos done there. They say, "sure, come in!" I walk over to that location in the pouring rain, my body still recovering from last week's vicious bout of influenza or Ebola or whatever. The tech takes his sweet time coming over with the camera. We take some pictures, I pay for them and I wait for them to print. Except they don't print. They don't print for awhile. Something wrong with the computer or printer. I ask for a refund and leave. So that debacle cost me half an hour of my day. This precious half hour could have been spent buying shit on Amazon that I don't need or throwing shade at models on Instagram. But alas. Later that day, i went to the Walgreens on Michigan and Washington and FINALLY got someone competent to get my photos taken. Get your shit together, Area Wal-greens! read more

The store has everything and then some. It's nice that you can get fresh sandwiches, juice, and coffee, but it's laid out terribly, and it attracts Too many wandering tourists that don't know why they're there. IT'S A wALGREENS people, not a site attraction! Get what you need and get out. So it's crowded. Also, the wine and every other liquor is downstairs. I'm assuming they think everybody is an alcoholic? I was in there for makeup. My intuition didn't tell me to go upstairs. I kept looking past the wide selection of wine for what I needed. Other than the aforementioned, it was a clean, organized store, with friendly and helpful employees. read more

First time in Chicago. Didn't realize I can get my favorite Joel Gott Cabernet in Walgreens!!! In NYC it is usually cheap shit wine but here well done Chicago. And ppl are so friendly read more

Very nice and sleek looking Walgreens...better than any I've ever walked into. I was in town for Lollapalooza and this was our stop for pretty much everything if we needed either a quick bottle of wine to take back to our room, sunglasses, Honey BBQ Lays, or sunscreen. The nail salon upstairs looked nice and the huge food selection and alcohol section downstairs was great. They even had a small clinic upstairs if you got sick. The lines went pretty quickly though, even with the large Lolla crowds. There is also a pretty decent unisex bathroom in the SE corner of the 1st floor, by the way...it was a life saver! Haha. The place was very clean and things were easy to find, definitely recommend if you're on State St and need something in a pinch. They seem to be open pretty late, too. read more

This Walgreens has a better selection of wine and spirits than half the liquor stores out there. I stopped in for snacks (which are also plentiful), and noticed their great selection of single malt scotches and hard ciders. Very impressive. read more

This is the Walgreens of the future...sleek, huge, and lots of nail polish. Plus they have a killer LaCroix selection. I really like the direction Walgreens is going with all the fresh and healthy snacks and food. I can only hope that all Walgreens locations start emulating the best traits of this location. I miss Loehmanns, for sure, but this Walgreens is pretty awesome. read more

The Walgreens itself is huge, clean and pretty much amazing, they have everything...except fresh jalapenos. The staff was all very pleasant and helpful. Plus you can get a mani, sushi and wine! However, I came for the Healthcare Clinic. Even though the doctor (?) I met with was pleasant, it was a complete and total waste of almost 2 hours. I got there and was told that everyone was on lunch and would be back within 30-45 min. I chose to wait because my options were limited at that point and going to another clinic to wait 2 hours sounded ridiculous. All I needed were some eye drops for my pink eye (yes, adults get pink eye). After waiting a good 45 minutes I met with the doctor lady, we went through about 10 minutes of health history questions and what not. All for her to inform me that there is nothing they could do for me, they apparently don't give eye drops to people over the age of 2. HUH? WHAT? Whatever...so I basically just wasted a good 2 hours of my day. Will not be going back to that Healthcare Clinic. Ill stick with the one in Old Town. They give you eye drops. read more

Checked out the new flagship Walgreen's on opening day. Was disappointed to see that the promised "International Newsstand" wasn't international at all, unless the inclusion of Financial Times and the Spanish language free weekly Hoy somehow counts. And the prices were a little on the high side. But other than that, was pretty impressed. Two levels and a good variety of pharmacy and urban grocery store staples, plus they've got an extensive wine selection. Lots of good quick food offerings, including pre-made sandwiches and made-to-order sushi. Overall, a welcome addition to the Loop. read more

If you aren't already overwhelmed by these challenges, leprosy, or that overzealous preacher by Old Navy, make sure to bookmark this Walgreens, it is simply awesome. read more

I can't believe I am giving a 5 star review to a Walgreens but this location is amazing. Super clean, well-stocked, organized shelves, and most of all friendly, happy, & helpful employees! We visited twice on my recent trip to Chicago because of a pesky cold and it was right down the block from the Wit Hotel. You se lots of Walgreens in the area, but don't miss this one! read more

This Walgreens is huge. The selections are endless, with two levels of all your shopping needs. Everything was fully stocked, and the floor was spotless. The cashiers were fast and friendly. What more is there to say? read more

This is the nicest Walgreens I've ever been to. They have a nail bar upstairs and a juice bar on the first floor. They sell fresh salads, sandwiches, and sushi! I can't believe this is a Walgreens...I'm thoroughly impressed. read more

Ever since this opened around the corner from work, I am there on a weekly basis...whether to browse or purchase. My most recent discovery was the nail salon on the 2nd floor. This Walgreens is nothing short of amazing! read more

Got my first of many to come $10 manicure. Sarah, the nail tech, is AWESOME! She's super sweet and helpful...And patient cuz I don't get mani's a lot. I LOVE my nails!! Give her your business. You won't regret it! read more

Walgreens - $10 manicure at Walgreens! - Drugstores Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Ok, I am from NJ. Let me just say, you people wouldn't know a 3 star drugstore if it slapped you in the over-privlidged face. There's SUSHI up in this joint! I know you can get beer in grocery stores in every state other than mine, but I walked out with a $6 four pack of Goose Island, spicy tuna and a souvenir magnet from a PHARMACY. The only thing you'll walk out with from Walgreens in Jersey is the searing mental image of a senior citizen scratching her ass waiting for a shingles script to be filled. read more

This Walgreens is my saviour. Whenever I'm in a rush to get to a theater for a show or meet a would-be employer for an interviewer, I can just stop here for a drink or fingernail clippers. It's so conveniently located. read more

Cheated out of my money. Would not recommend getting your passport picture taken here. Awful quality, didn't even have the right equipment, and the passport agency ended up rejecting the picture that was taken by Walgreens. Went back to the store asking for a refund or store credit and was only given "rewards points" for 1/3 of the amount I paid. Then they had the nerve to tell me that it was my fault for not noticing that the picture THEY TOOK was not up to the US passport agency's standards. You have no right to tell me this if you're advertising that you offer passport photo services! Go somewhere else for passport pictures! Don't waste your time, money, and breath at this Walgreens. read more

Upset because the sale price was 2/$10 but the store only had 2 available. Would not give me the sale price because WALGREENS was out of stock ! read more

The first time I Stepped into the Walgreens flagship I was in awe of the new features like the fresh food, FroYo, and overall increased selection. It is definitely convenient and helpful. The only gripe I have with this particular store which keeps it from being a 5-star rating is the price. If you take a random sample of items from this store and compare it to the other stores around the Chicago Loop, you'll find that this store is considerably more expensive than the others. If the prices were adjusted to at least match the other stores, this would be a 5-star establishment. read more

This store is AMAZING! It's a huge space with a great alcohol/wine section, a nice area where you can get food (sushi, hot food, pre-made food that actually looks appetizing). Also everyone in this store is friendly and helpful. I mean even the security guard gets in on the act by telling me where I could find the product I was looking for. read more

I thought they were closing this location, but alas it is still standing. What a shame. This place is filthy inside and out and the people who work here are, at very best, completely disinterested in the customers. read more

The Walgreens of all Walgreens. If you've visited the multi-level location in Times Square, this location at State & Randolph will rival even that. Here you can find fresh sushi, a nail bar, freshly brewed coffee, beer and wine, fresh food items, a state-of-the-art pharmacy, all the other things you love about Walgreens and more. This place is impressive to the Nth degree! Well done Walgreens! read more

World's greatest Walgreens. I love this Walgreens. It's two stories and has a great alcohol selection down stairs. Need a bottle of Cristal? They have it. Need a fresh snack? They'll make it. The lighting is nice and bright, the place is clean and seriously has everything you'd ever ever need. read more

I love, love love love this walgreens its so big and pretty and shiny kinda like walmart in they have food, groceries, liquor and all the other regular walgreens stuff dressed up in a pretty package. i must admit i was pissed when loehmanns closed but this place makes up for it, they have plenty of registers and plenty of employees to help you i wish all walgreens were like this one read more

Seriously, the best Walgreens I have ever walked into. Food, froyo, sushi, fresh fruit, drinks, liquor, wine, nail shop, cosmestics department - I mean, seriously, the best ever. read more

Every time I am downtown I try to stop in this store. Today I went there to have a sushi snack. Then I decided to take a look around and was shocked to find 2 pair of really cool flip flops with bling on them. I had just visited DSW and other stores and could finding nothing in my size. Guess it was meant to be -- because there they were, just what I had wanted. And they were only $7.99 a pair. You just cannot beat that. So far, the quality is every bit as good as what I saw at DSW for the same type of shoe. They have cushiony arches, too. Just goes to show you - sometimes it is better when one place doesn't have what you want -- you're bound to find a better deal elsewhere! read more

Great dragon roll sushi, clean and good variety
