Same as the other smaller branches; politely and helpfully staffed, shelves full of gift ideas (especially at this time of year), makeup, the pharmacy, and a small food section. This store also has a small perfumery.

I am writing this to express my extreme disappointment and frustration regarding the unprofessional…read morebehaviour of the store manager at the Boots Pharmacy on Commercial Road in Portsmouth. Over several visits, I have encountered the same rude and dismissive attitude from this particular manager. Instead of offering support or assistance, they have consistently spoken in an unhelpful, abrupt, and frankly unacceptable manner. As a patient, I expect a basic level of respect and empathy, especially when dealing with health-related concerns. Unfortunately, this manager shows none. What's worse is that these incidents weren't isolated - their attitude seems to be a pattern, not just a bad day. On each occasion, I left the store feeling humiliated and completely let down. There is absolutely no excuse for such behaviour, particularly from someone in a management position who should be setting an example. I strongly urge Boots to take this feedback seriously and investigate the conduct of the store manager at this branch. No one should be treated the way I was, and unless changes are made, I will be taking my business elsewhere and advising others to do the same. I believe the rude store managers name is Ben

This is a large store over two floors in Portsmouth city centre…read more We arrived in Portsmouth via Portugal and Spain. I had time to kill so I wandered in just to check out the price of Chanel No 5 Eau de Parfum - the worlds first abstract fragrance - as my wife was shopping so I was curious as I had already purchased a few 200ml bottles when touring Europe. It was discounted in store but even with 10% off it was still double the price I'd paid. The store assistant at the perfume department was a cheerful soul and she was diligent. She tried her best to sell me perfume but I politely declined. Once it was clear I was a no-sale wastrel she quickly picked up on the next curious male who knew he wanted something for a gift for, as he put it, as only English chaps can, 'er in doors' but he had no clue what to buy. The assistant was in her element and her pitch as I wandered away was to gauge how much he was prepared to spend but as I went out of hearing range he couldn't even decide between Eau de Parfum and Eau de Toilette.... Decisions decisions. As I walked up Main Street I wasn't aware I was just a few minutes away from the Starbucks fleecers that would charge me 5p for a plastic cup for tap water despite being surrounded by ceramic cups. Must be an old male bastard thing, I hate being ripped off, but then it might just be me.

As with all boots there is the reward card system where you can collect points on whatever you buy. The shop does get quite busy. Most of the staff are friendly and helpful. It is not too far from a few of the car parks in Shirley. Most of the prices are average but there are plenty of other stores where I have found things cheaper.

A popular (and largest) drugstore chain in the United Kingdom (tracing its history all the way back…read moreto 1849), Boots is wholly owned by Walgreens Boots Alliance (2014). This location of Boots was located close to the West Quay shopping center. It was a good place to pick up some toiletries (in our case, Nivea skin cleanser that my wife told me was a reasonable price), and would have been a good place to pick up any over the counter medication if we needed it. It was one of the few places open early on a weekday (8 am) and was our first stop to do some window shopping, getting a feel for how much common items cost now in the UK. There was a small food section, stocked with bottled drinks and premade sandwiches and wraps as well. It was a self checkout and we had no issues using our US bank issued card.

The aisles have been made so wide that the large space hasn't really been used so it's a normal Boots spread out a bit. It does mean that it never seems busy and you're not constantly dodging people but if you go here expecting to find a much larger range, you'll probably be disappointed. The shop itself is bright and clean, as you would expect for a Boots, and the staff are happy to point you in the right direction if you can't find what you're looking for (which happens all too often because the signs above the aisles only give a vague idea of what might be there).

The staff are reasonably helpful though unable to always help you find the item you need. A friendly enough atmosphere and not too long a wait - they do have a service where they will pick up your prescriptions from your doctor if you have repeats and are nearby. You can then pick up your medication or they can deliver it to you. There is no parking directly outside but several nearby car parks. Prices are reasonable with plenty of offers. You can get a boots advantage card here - everything you buy gives you points which leads to money off items or even free products, after a certain amount have been acrued. This is a clean and tidy store and well stocked with the essentials.
