Publix

I normally use this pharmacy for prescriptions when I'm really sick because it's the closest to my…read morehouse (normally I prefer Walgreens). I won't make that mistake anymore. My wife picked up some prescriptions for me today and when I opened the bag and took it out I saw something black inside a bottle of white pills. I took a closer look and found that a dead bug was in the bottle alongside my pills. I'm absolutely disgusted and can't imagine how unhygienic this pharmacy must be to miss a whole black bug in a bottle of white pills. I won't be back to this CVS under any circumstances and will stick with Walgreens.

They lost my prescription after a renewal call in. They said I had one renewal available on the…read morephone but when I showed up they had no record and I had no renewals. Kinds seems suspicious to me since it was a mood altering medication. When I asked if they could call it in to get a renewal going they acted SUPER ANNOYED. I asked to speak with a manager and she was even ruder. I never raised my voice I just asked what happened. They explained that their system was having issues and loosing lots of scripts and that it wasn't their fault (even though it's a CVS system). When I politely said that was concerning for a pharmacy they told me if I said anything else they'd never serve me again. What the heck?! Super rude and not at all concerned about me that I could see. I'd avoid this place if you can. The manager (Sunday 1/17 during the day) should not be working in healthcare. I'll be going to the one at Target at Colonial from now on.

It's Publix. You really cannot go wrong visiting a Publix. Now, it is true that not all the…read morelocations are made equally, but for the most part, what you can get at one, you can find/get at MOST. This particular location, the Publix near Lake Eola, is not a location I shop FREQUENTLY, but it is one that I pass through more than some other locations. It is centrally located, making it fairly easy to get to. It has FREE parking underground - which is a perk in that area because street parking, pending the day and time, can get a bit tricky to find. The staff is usually always kind. Since it is near Lake Eola, this location does get a lot of foot traffic, so at times, it can get congested. It is a bit smaller than some other locations, but again, you can get a good amount of what you need here. Outside of that, it's your standard grocery store.

The weather was great and everyone was in a good mood. I had a great walk in the area before entering Publix. This store was very spacious and had tons of options. It was very packed on Saturday with people from the area. I was able to go through the store quickly and pick up what I needed. They had a variety of options at affordable prices. I picked up some chips, drinks, and a sandwich to go. The staff was very friendly and got me through the door quickly. I had a great time here and am happy with my first visit to Publix.

This Publix is one of the best I've been too. I feel like they know when im going to be there because they always have free food to try their with the recipe's to go along with it. I really love their meat counter because I can not only buy ready to grill or cook meat but ill ask what how they would recommend cooking it and I usually get a few new ideas to try. my bottom line. huge wine selection. Great meat counter. makes subs. big bakery. has things most Publix's don't. read more
