EASY PEASY! Coming across this Walgreens is like seeing an oasis in the desert. It's so hard to find a pharmacy or convenience store in the middle of the LA hub without fighting for parking. Thankfully, this location has a lot for itself. I was able to enter the lot without issue and easily found a spot to park. Parking is spacious! The inside of the store looks a little dated, but it's got plenty of items in-stock! Lots of make-up and over-the-counter meds. I dropped by for some fiber and other personal products. Everything was located quickly and the line moved along fast despite the foot traffic. All for registers were open, I appreciated that this Walgreens' team had excellent team work. The restroom was sadly closed, due to being out of order. read more

On 9/30/26 at approximately 3-4 pm and about 3:18 - 3:54 pm more precisely at Walgreens store location 5879 , 3201 w. 6th st. In Los Angeles, there was an issue regarding the security there . When I walked in , he had told me to put my bag down , which I found odd as they never asked me that before. I needed that bag with me because with laws banning plastic bags now and only allowing paper bags, I like to bring my own heavier duty larger reusable bags. Anyway, I cooperated and placed by bag by him as he instructed. However That wasn't the problem . The problem arised while I was waiting in line for my photo print pick up and noticing that same security guard walking away from my bag to check around store, leaving it vulnerable for theft by others since it is completely out in the open and by the entrance where you walk in or out . And with no other security placed at that spot while he walked away from it , that is a problem . As those bags weren't empty as I had stopped by two stores before stepping into this one. If someone were to steal my bag , it will lead to a big mess on them compensating me as how can I prove to them what was in the bag if it was stolen? They would have to take my word of the cost for it , which they most likely wouldn't , and I could sue the store . Therefore it would be a good idea for them to hire an additional security from preventing that from happening . It's like the store is worried about you stealing , but they don't care if your things get stolen . Which is entirely hypocritical and unprofessional . I had my reasons to put that security guard in his place and call the manager , whose name is Randy , to discuss this . I spoke to him at photo counter. Randy was okay , but the one thing I did not like is when he threatened to ban me from the store since he accused me of being antagonizing and making it a big deal. When my things are left to being vulnerable for theft by others , I reserve the right to complain . I did nothing wrong . That is what managers , corporate , security and Human Resources are for . If anything I'm helping the store from something bad happening of my things getting stolen . They should be thanking me . So for management to say that me is wrong . I'm also contacting corporate to make sure he gets in checked too as well . I then went to the pharmacy section of store to pick up some prescriptions for my mother. While I was waiting in line there and Randy passed me by , I called out to him and talked to him again about the issue . I had asked for the security first name only so I could report him to Human Resources/Corporate . He said he doesn't know it and wouldn't give it to me. Are you kidding me ? He works in your store , you should know . I even did a google search and it says managers should know their name . In case he's telling me the truth, he's fine . But if he's lollygagging with me , again , I'm also Informing corporate about this so he can face consequences as well , if any . After I picked up my mothers prescriptions, I did what Randy told me to do while we were taking at the pharmacy section and get the security's company badge so I can contact them and report him from there. So I approached security at the entrance with my phone , so I could type down the company name which is GSG protective services private security . I did not take any pictures nor did anything else as he didn't take any pictures of me nor do nor say anything else to me , so I was being fair in return. And there's the store cameras always recording both of us anyway and to prove that I'm not lying about anything I'm saying so we're good . I once again talked to Randy at the entrance before leaving so he could give me the contact number for the new security company I just discovered off the security's badge . I then confirmed some stuff from the issue on my phone before leaving . Now I will say this , I'm coming back to this store the day after tomorrow October 2nd 2026 to pick up my mothers other prescription . I need to be welcomed in this store , because if I am not , I am suing for discrimination. As again I did nothing wrong but use my rights to their fullest potential and that is entirely legal . There is no banning . My mother likes this location and I will continue to come here . If I was a problem like the manager tried to make me look like , why hasn't there been any problems with me before ? Again , I have been coming here awhile . So 5879, Check your staff and not me . As Security was mumbling something and laughing to what looked like an AirPod placed in one of his ears. You have 1/5 stars on yelp. Don't try me . If a security guard is going to ask you to place your bags elsewhere, they need to keep watch over them at all times. And that's what I need to see next time I'm there ... read more

Walgreens - Package , order label , contents . - Drugstores Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This is one of the only 24 hour Walgreens in the SGV located in the heart of downtown LA. The store layout is similar to most stores but definitley the shelves are full of products unlike some other locations. It was quite busy with plenty of foot traffic close to midnight on a weekday. There were at least four team members on the sales floor and registers. The pharmacy also had a line of a few patients and the drive thru was active as well. The cleanliness of the store was just ok considering the location and time I visited. I am happy to finally have made the visit to this specific location to see the whole operational workflow. read more

i'm currently in the line to pick up my prescription medication. walgreen location Vermont & 6th st, Los Angeles, CA. There are people cutting in line, and people in the line complaining to the staff and the staff members don't care and help those cutting in line. What's the point of standing in line when the staff don't care about the people in line and still help the people cutting in line. Very disappointed customer service read more

Just want to shoutout Kevin. He went above and beyond for a RX transfer in the middle of the night. He could have easily said the order wasn't fulfilled at his location, but he still managed to track down the order from another store and make things right. Thank you so much read more

Inconsiderate and disrespectful staff members weren't helpful. I came twice to this location to pick up a package on behalf of my friend. I'm aware that they're just doing their jobs according to store policy. But, they didn't do anything else to resolve the issue. read more

I really want to say thank you to this Walgreens Pharmacy!! The pharmacists work very hard, they try to help you with any questions you may have. Even when this Pharmacy is full of orders the pharmacists here are still trying so hard to get everything done and they're are very efficient and always helpful. I appreciate you guys!! Excellent. read more

Every time I've tried to pick up a prescription at this location after calling it in and waiting 90 minutes to pick it up, the line at the store is an additional 60-90 minute wait. I understand the appeal of getting your prescription ordered here as it is open 24 hours but the wait time is criminal and staff seem unbothered and disgruntled (although likely because they deal with a lot of frustrated customers after those wait times). The pharmacist didn't even say hello to me when I finally got to the window, just looked at me to put my cards in the bin. Go to another Walgreens. read more

Worst experience! I'm trying to transfer Walgreens to Amazon pharmacy and they are like oh it's not suppose to deny, have them call us back.... did a back and forth with Walgreens and Amazon pharmacy and I still couldn't get it approved... so now I will have to find an alternative solution. ‍ read more

Good luck trying to call the pharmacy department they'll just place you on hold forever. Clearly they need more staff.

I'm sorry, but this is a HORRIBLE location. I've been trying to check the status of a prescription for THREE days & no one ever answers the pharmacy phone & to make matters worse, while on hold, every so often someone will pick up, DO NOT SAY A WORD & put it back on hold. EACH TIME I'm left on hold for about an hour before an automated voice comes on & say, the pharmacy is busy & hang up on me. I 100% understand being busy, but to be left on hold for a FULL HOUR each time no matter what time olI called & never receiving assistance is unacceptable, especially when trying to get medication. The very least someone could've done was pick up & say they're too busy to help. IF your intent is to kill time, then this is your location read more

Jenny was very helpful. She was nice and friendly. Made sure we had our prescription. She went above and beyond to assist.

This Walgreens has good security, and their pharamcists work so hard and are very efficient, I appreciate them! It is very busy here all the time, there is usually always a line at the pharmacy. read more

I've had a pretty rough time with this Walgreens both in person and over the phone. Not only was I stuck on hold for two hours just to get hung up on, but when I actually go into the store, the wait times are horrible and the employees seem pretty disgruntled and not very helpful. Overall, it really feels like they just don't care about their customers' time or experience. I hope they can make some serious improvements. read more

Alycia has to be one of the worst pharmacist I have ever encountered. Refused to fill the script from my surgeon that was filled by the exact same pharmacy 90 days ago. The EXACT same script for a surgery that is scheduled tomorrow Said it's up to the pharmacist "discretion" is why she wouldn't fill. I waited for 45 (with a screaming baby) why she tried to contact the surgeons office I showed her in my Walgreens history same script filled on 6/23. No sympathy, completely rude. Spoke to a manager a he suggested I come back after 530 when she was done for the day Alycia I hope I never see your face again, your tires go flat on the ride home and your ghetto kids never learn to read. Get a different job if you can't handle basic customer service read more

This is to inform Walgreens and to warn to the entire LA community. WALGREENS on 6th Street is managed by a VILE, UNPROFESSIONAL and CRUEL person named "DAISY M." She denied me my right to my medications and feed me misinformation about their availability. DO NOT GO to WALGREENS on 6TH STREET because they will treat you with DISRESPECT, COLDNESS and CRUELTY. My grievance and dissatisfaction regarding the service I received at the Walgreens pharmacy, located on 6th Street in downtown Los Angeles, has been brought up to their corporate offices. On April 19, 2025, I called the Walgreens pharmacy to request a refill for my Cresemba medication. I was informed that it was out of stock but would be ordered and available for pick-up on April 21, along with my other medications. Upon arriving on April 21, I was dismayed to find that only three of my five prescriptions were ready, and when I inquired about the Cresemba, the attendant informed me it would need to be reordered for pick-up on April 23. The interaction I had with the drive-thru attendant was troubling; she dismissed my concerns regarding my life-saving medications and exhibited a lack of proficiency in operating the pharmacy's computer system, which further added to my anxiety. That evening, I attempted to verify my medication's status via phone. After being placed on hold repeatedly, I was met with a technician who failed to verify my identity and abruptly ended the call rather than provide assistance. This pattern continued when I sought to speak with the pharmacy manager, identified only as Daisy. When I finally spoke with her, her dismissive attitude and refusal to help were shocking. She claimed that the medication was no longer available, despite my knowledge that it had not been discontinued. I later learned from other Walgreens locations that my medication could indeed be ordered, illustrating a severe lack of communication and service at the 6th Street store. The contrast between my experiences there and those at other Walgreens was striking, as I ultimately found assistance from staff at different locations who were willing and able to help. The conduct of Daisy M., the pharmacy manager, raises significant concerns about the treatment of customers, particularly those who rely on medications for their health and wellbeing. Her handling of my requests was not only unprofessional but also displayed a lack of empathy and concern for customers' health. I urge the corporate office to investigate these practices at the 6th Street location, as they reflect poorly on the Walgreens brand and its commitment to customer care. It is critical that your staff, especially those in management positions, adhere to high standards of integrity and compassion when dealing with customers, particularly those who are vulnerable. I will also be reporting this incident to the Better Business Bureau and sharing my experience on social media to raise awareness of these troubling service issues. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Daisy M., their manager is a vile and inhumane individual who blatantly denied me of my life saving medication without guidance and due process . Since then I have transferred my medications to a pharmacy that treats vulnerable individuals with the dignity and respect they deserve. I hope this provides everyone and insight how they operate and encourage everyone to speak up with their own experiences. Sincerely, Walgreens Customer read more

Parking lot was a little packed and had a little bit of hard time to look for the parking space but everything was fine inside the store

Walgreens - the inside of a grocery store - Drugstores Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I would not recommend this Walgreens location for prescription services. I was initially told my prescription would be ready within 90 minutes at 7 PM, yet when I arrived, it wasn't even in stock. The following day, I called ahead and was assured it would be ready by 11 AM. However, upon arriving at that time, it was still unavailable. The repeated misinformation and inconvenience made the process unnecessarily frustrating. I would strongly advise others to consider a different pharmacy. I still don't have my medication! read more

Pharmacy is so slow and just terrible service. Rude and very short with their answers.

If there is "0" star, I will be giving them "0" star! We arrived at this location at 6:55pm for our 7:10pm Covid Vaccine appointment since it shows in the confirmation to arrive 15mins before the appointment, when we arrived we checked in right away thru the QR code, we are only 2nd in line but still it took 15mins for the pharmacist to assist us. After getting our information suddenly the pharmacist asked me for my insurance information and I told her my insurance is Kaiser and she responded "well if you have Kaiser, why don't you get the vaccine thru Kaiser" and on top of my head "wow! Really? That's how you speak with a customer?" But I responded that I need to have a vaccine before Jan.25 and Kaiser's earliest appointment is 2/1/25. The pharmacist told me "we are not partner with Kaiser so you need to pay $205.99" and I was like "why would I pay for Covid vaccine well in fact, it shows in your website that it's "FREE" and I added "if you guys are charging for COVID VACCINE, you should update your website. She responded again saying "I cannot do anything in the website, my manager is not here but I will tell my manager tomorrow" then I told her you guys let us wait for our appointment and we wasted our time for nothing then we left. When we are exiting the parking, we saw that this walgreens location are advertising "FREE FLUE AND COVID-19 VACCINES WALK INS WELCOME GET YOURS TODAY! We are all surprised that after this experience with the pharmacist we are going to see this poster! We fee that we got scammed! read more

Abysmal service and staff. 1) Store: (1) The team isn't well trained. Often no one at the photo/pickup counter, long waits. (2) The 10 cents charged for online orders being picked up is supposed to be refunded if you brought your own bag. Multiple times various staff (even the Manager!) says they don't know how to do that, weren't trained how to do that, so I had to call the main customer line and complain to get that refunded plus extra for the inconvenience. It's to the point where just can't do online order pickups b/c afraid of the hassle at that store. 2) Pharmacy: (1) First their call center picks up, wastes your time asking all the information and chatting with you, only to then just transfer you to their in-store pharmacy, which you then have to wait again in the queue and re-explain everything all over again. (2) Their phone system has issues, choosing to get a callback by clicking option 1 does nothing (just drops your call and is a beep beep beep sound) (3) Their app technology has issues connecting to their main system. The pharmacy keeps asking you to upload your insurance/what's your insurance, despite having already ordered there several times with the same insurance and uploading your insurance multiple times. (4) Worse is they get medication fills wrong and don't inform you! (a) Don't give you the full fill, only partial fill, and don't think to inform you as a patient. Only when you run out of the medication in a dire situation do you realize the pharmacy made a mistake. So always check the medication you get from them! (b) Even if you ask for certain brands over and over, they forget and may not give you the right one so have to check with them several times. (c) That includes whether they are even using the right insurance for you. If it looks much higher than it should be, it's b/c they may have used the wrong insurance for you (your old one on file, etc. and somehow "lost" the new one you provided ages ago and used several times already). (d) Tell you it's ready then you go and then when you show up, wait the long line, things are missing and you have to return several times as it keeps happening. (5) Understand they are very busy but this all just shows how disorganized they are. Was told to speak to a particular person and kept getting the phone transferred to random/different individuals 3-4 times or more. When you inform them of your frustration/upset at them messing up your medication (at the detriminent of your health) they just brush it aside, no apology, and move on to the next patient. Overall, no empathy, a mess of a facility and training. read more

First of all, I want to say this is the most disgusting place I've ever been to. This is typical corporate America not caring about the local community. Feces, urine and trash everywhere every day. I work close by it's not just this one particular time. The manager was a deer in the headlights, actually it looked like I woke him up and had an empty drained gazed stare that made me feel somewhat sorry for him. read more

I am a long time resident of Los Angeles, California and been a regular customer at the Walgreens Pharmacy on 6th Street and Vermont in Los Angeles, California for the past seven (7) years. I wanted to write a letter to Walgreens to highlight the exemplary service provided to me by Michelle N (and Walgreens Pharmacy) in assisting me in my efforts to refill my prescription, which has been stalled by my healthcare provider in a bureaucratic morass of confusion that is likely the fault of no one but just needs to be unraveled. I called Walgreens Pharmacy in the early evening of Saturday, January 18, 2024 and explained my problems and issues to Michelle N, who listened patiently and responsively and endeavored to resolve my problems, promising to follow through in her efforts to review and understand the voluminous notes in my files as well as contact my provider and then call me back the next day. I then received and informative and helpful telephone call from Michelle N, as she had promised, on Sunday evening, January 19, 2024, in which Michelle N informed me of her progress and in which she provided me with further directives as to how I should proceed to resolve my issues. I want everyone to know how much I appreciate the efforts and the compassion and empathy and personal service and kindness bestowed upon me by Michelle N and Walgreens Pharmacy in helping put my mind at ease as I seek to resolve these important issues. I truly feel as if Michelle N and Walgreens Pharmacy sincerely care about my pharmaceutical needs and are advocating on my behalf in my efforts to obtain the medications prescribed for me by my treating physicians. This level of support and service of Michelle N and Walgreens Pharmacy are priceless and exemplary and are a powerful testament to the quality of Walgreen Pharmacy's vital and important efforts to provide pharmaceutical services on a 24/7 basis to residents of the greater Los Angeles area. I cannot thank you enough for Walgreen Pharmacy's support and hope that my words sufficiently convey my sense of appreciation and respect and gratitude. read more

Since I've been starting my medicine September 2024, it has been hell ever other month getting my medicine refilled.....

We went to this very shitty Walgreens in pursuit of passport photos for our two small children. We'd already been to the CVS, which had a broken camera, and were not particularly happy to be running around Koreatown on a Sunday evening with a toddler and a baby. The parking lot for this Walgreens was carpeted with trash. I don't know if other businesses hire people to clean their parking lots or what, but this one struck me as unusually full of litter. The Walgreens itself wasn't especially nice either, and they didn't have a fucking functioning digital camera. Is it too much to ask that a drugstore that advertises passport photo service have a camera that isn't old and broken? I was grateful to the employee who pointed us toward the Staples next door, where we did successfully get those baby passport photos. One extra star for her guidance, but I doubt I'll ever go to this dismal Walgreens again. read more

Great staff, great selection! The selection of items here varies greatly from food to electronics to personal items. But that's not what is great here...

The pharmacy is slow and useless. I made an appointment for my second HPV shot and when I showed up with email confirmation they informed me, "We have no appointment scheduled for today and have no shots available." WTF! I have the appointment confirmation with me and prescription copy from my doctor stating he sent the prescription to the pharmacy yet you're telling me you have nothing in your system. The girl who helped me had no idea what she was doing. She seemed overwhelmed with everything going on. Maybe she chose the wrong field because she was not helpful in the very least - completely clueless and useless. Not bothering coming to Walgreens ever again. Not even to purchase a bag of chips. read more

Walgreens - Pharmacy - Drugstores Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This Walgreens has been incredibly disappointing. I called to check when one of my prescriptions would be ready so I could avoid making two trips. My call was transferred to the head pharmacist, who told me there were three people ahead of me. After 20 minutes on hold, the phone rang as if someone picked up -- only for them to immediately place me back on hold. This happened again for another 25 minutes before I realized they simply didn't want to help. I doubt the three people ahead of me ever got their calls answered either. read more

Oh yeah... it's totally still one star. The "how much crap-will-you-take experiment" has amp'd up to a new level tonight. Three calls to the pharmacy. Each time on hold for about 20-minutes. I'm on hold right now writing Yelp! (Don't you love angry reviews!?) Then they pick up... you can hear talking... then they just hang up. So I finally called the store manager. Haha. Manager says she'll transfer me, and then walk back there to assure they pick up the phone. You'll never guess what happened!! I was on hold, and like 10-minutes later they picked up, and hung up immediately. Of course they did! Isn't this like the definition of insanity? Yeah, but it makes for good Yelp reviews, right!? (Update: I called back to again speak to the manager, and now been on hold for like 10-minutes.) So why do I do this? I mean, hands down, no question, this is BY FAR, I MEAN NOT KIDDING, the very worst pharmacy on all of God's green earth! Gun toting gang member street drug dealers have better service than this. It's two things: They are 24-hours and got a drive thru. And I'm that messed up, apparently, that I'll deal with this abuse for those two things. And there is no other option if you need these wants.

Walgreens - Drive thru prescription window. Screams professionalism. :) - Drugstores Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I visit this Walgreens often as well as the pharmacy. I had enough this time with their pharmacy though. Avoid the drive-through if you can, it says two lanes but they will take the one by the window first, making you wait 3x longer. I actually just left without being helped because they did not attend the right lane even though it said both lanes are open. Honestly it's horrible when you need the medication asap and it takes over 5 hours plus to fill! I am going to look for another pharmacy. read more
