Illinois-based drugstore chain serves neighborhoods with fully stocked stores and modern amenities.

by Robyn Galbos

In Short
Founded in 1901 in Chicago by Charles R. Walgreen Sr., this neighborhood pharmacy has grown to be one of the nation's largest drugstore chains. Each store carries 25,000 different items--from cleaning products to electronics and greeting cards. Store features include a computerized system connecting pharmacies nationwide via satellite, grocery-store food aisles, one-hour photofinishing and an automated phone system for prescription refills and pre-arranged pickup times. Other services include in-store flu shots and childhood immunizations.

best walgreens in town

by bshaker

i had to drive from westlake after the pharmacy in our area was closed. i was pleased to be helped by a very nice staff. Their pharmacist went over my medications with me and was very friendly. A special thanks to all the staff at that store.

• Pros: fast, counseling, friendly
• Cons: none

great!

I don't know what that other review was talking about, this location IS open 24 hours!! The pharmacists are always available to answer questions and the wait time is usually pretty short. Sometimes you have to wait a little longer in drive-thru (at rush hour, of course), but if you go in you can just walk right up to the counter! I would recommend this store to anyone who values convenience and friendly staff!

• Pros: open 24 hours, friendly pharmacists, short wait
• Cons: busy drive through

Not the Best

by vanillabean18

This Walgreens Pharmacy is so much worse than every other Walgreens I've been to! The hours aren't very good. (They aren't open 24 hr., but rather, close pretty early!) Also, the customer service in the pharmacy is lousy!
