Although I wasn't driving I was worried about finding quick parkiing after seeing the street parking already filled. Turns out that CVS has their designated parking. It made it easy for an easy and quick grab and go stop. The employee that helped with unlocking the med display was not a peoples person no really interaction. The store was clean and organized and the shelves looked well stocked. It's a good store if ever in need of your basics. It's a store I would return to if needed.

It's a completely depressing experience shopping at this CVS location. The corporate CVS company really needs to inject some money into this branch to get it on par to the other San Clemente location. The fridges seem broken often, product displays are messy, and merchandise is always out of stock. The unequipped staff here have my utmost empathy. Poor souls. Corporate needs to wake up.

I approached several staff members to assist me to investigate if the item I was looking to purchase was in stock in the back store room. They looked at me if I was speaking a foreign language, English is still the language of choice isn't it ? I ended up frustrated and decided to leave. This is not the first time that I encountered a language problem. I know what you're thinking " why didn't you ask for a manager". well this past January I had to wait 35 minutes for someone to find a manager and when they did I had to help them fill out the form to my dismay ! The manager said someone from the Corporate Office would contact me within 48 hours ...... its now June and I'm still waiting !

A local independent pharmacy told me to go elsewhere after a few years of loyalty because they…read moredidn't want to hassle with my son's prescriptions which were difficult to get and probably was a low profit gain for them. Since moving to this RiteAid they have never given me a problem. There were a couple of times early on not stocking my son's unusual RX on time but since I have become a loyal customer, they never run out. Also, I see people complain here but they also have to remember that another rite aid closed down and this location is handling those rx too. They have some staff from the closed RiteAid but sometimes it seems crowded during certain times of the day. At times, it can take long in line but if you look, the staff is trying to help the customer. There are customers that really need a lot of help! In my years of being with this pharmacy, the people up front have always been kind and patient to not only me but with others.

Update: Randomly, the pharmacist Gene just removed his previous reply and made a new one today, 6 months after the fact. BOTTOM LINE: you do not need any info from me to be able to tell me if you have something in stock. It's a YES OR NO answer; either you do or do not have it in stock. You DO NOT need anything from my doctor or whatnot to tell me if something is in stock. You don't need my doctor info OR insurance info. Simply answer the question and I will move on to the next pharmacy if you don't have it in stock, which I ended up doing. Good grief. RIDICULOUS. read more

You can tell he takes so much pride in his work and in taking care of the people in his community. This place is truly such a gem here in Laguna Beach. The service, kindness, and willingness to help are something you just don't find very often anymore.

I've been going here for almost 10 years. The owner, Michael, is there most days and the rest of his employees are also great to work with. They always offer my kids a little treat and know them by name. There aren't long lines to wait in like some of the big box stores, but they are pretty busy. They have text refills just like the big places do and I get notified that my prescriptions are filled in just the same manner. If you live in the area and don't have a family owned place like this already I recommend you check them out and give them a chance. Lastly, the pricing is as competitive as the big box stores from my experience. They'll accept all the same coupons, insurance and apps. They even shop around for the right version of your medicine which sometimes can be tricky.
