Nothing makes me happier than walking into a shop and seeing a cat. Does anyone else follow…read morer/bodegacats on reddit? Seeing a happy, healthy, sleepy kitty lounging in a store tells me that the staff and the local clientele is kind and whimsical. The world needs more bodega cats, truly. Apparently this kitcat is named Miku and while he does have a human, he spends most of his time roaming town, and clearly lots of time at this CVS. Other than Miku, I thought this CVS was relatively well stocked and very clean. While there was a bit of a line at checkout and I only saw 1 staff member, she was kind. We found what we needed and were in and out quickly.

I appreciate having CVS in town for the convenience of finding quick toiletries or medicine or…read moresnacks. Unfortunately they often seem understaffed and under-stocked. I will continue to shop here for a few products. They do carry La Roche Posay if you're looking for fancy skincare! And they often have Hippeas vegan chickpea puffs (IYKYK); they are hard to find but are also sold at Shelton's in town and at Whole Foods in Coddingtown Mall. If you do visit this CVS, don't be surprised if you see a cat lounging in the aisle or helping himself to cat food. That's Miku, a local 'stray' cat (who has a human but spends most of his time about town).

Forestville pharmacy is not the closest pharmacy to me (since I live in Sebastopol) but I wouldn't…read morego anywhere else. The pharmacist always greets me by name as soon as I walk in, even if they are busy. They are never impatient and always make me feel like a valuable customer. The actual store has really neat stuff but the clerks can be a little distant, not as friendly unless they know you. I like the discount book section. But the pharmacy is great.

If I could give 0 stars I would. I have been coming here to…read morethe Forestville Pharmacy my whole life. I always remembered it to be a friendly, family oriented place that I looked forward to going to with my mom. Well I recently moved back to town and things have taken a turn for the worst. Staff are rude, unhelpful, and have an extremely entitled attitude. There was ONE woman who was actually trying to be helpful, but the other staff (two younger girls) bashed her down and acted like she was dumb for asking questions and trying to help me. I tried SIX TIMES over the course of a week to get my prescription and they kept giving me the run around. By the 8th day of trying, I said forget it and I am going to Sebastopol now. (Which Sebastopol family pharmacy has been SO much better already) DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME WITH THESE HELPLESS PHARMACISTS. Save yourself the time, energy and headache, and just go somewhere else. Sad to see this place go so far down hill.

I will admit that there was a lot of people in the store, which is understandable due to it being a weekend and the holiday season. There is plenty of parking, which is nice as well. The deals are great and there are a lot of good finds. There is also fresh fruit so I will have to come back when it's less crowded and check out the food section. I love that the store is really well organized and clean, which makes it easy to find what you are looking for. The staff are very friendly and helpful. I feel that there were plenty of staff there so if you have a question, one of them can easily help you. I used the self check out and it was a smooth process and the line moved fast. All around great experience shopping here.

I'm sorry some people have had bad experiences but ours have been great. Employees here have been…read moresuper helpful for us - and friendly- from security at the door to folks on the floor. We needed a sun umbrella for the cotati accordion festival and even though inventory showed two there was only one. The guy in sportswear was so helpful and he tried so hard to find the missing umbrella. We ended up just buying one and it was great. Our past visit we had help from a great employee who talked us through price matching. I understand these are stressful times but sometimes I think people take out their frustrations on service personnel. I feel the folks here have always overperformed for me and always tried to help.

Very professional staff, the line doesn't seem to ever get longer than one or two people; this is night and day if you compare to CVS. I've had horrible experiences at CVS. Safeway must pay more, staff more people during shifts and be a good place to work, and it shows. They have attracted well trained professionals.
