Great experience at this location in Washington DC. We grabbed some waters, snacks, and other essentials. It was a nice respite from the cold Washington days. The footprint is on two levels. read more

Great selection. Good customer service. Had everything we needed while we were vacationing in D.C.

Ugh this place stinks. Literally reeks inside and out. Definitely worse outside than in. The store itself is clean and well laid out. Prices are a bit high, but you are paying for the convenience. read more

Walgreens - Drugstores Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

While at an event downtown I was in need of some batteries. They always seem to run out of juice at the most inappropriate time. I'm still not familiar with everything in this area and I ended up walking for what felt like forever until I got here. I'm exaggerating because it was hot and humid and I was miserable. When you enter it is a bit of a task as you have to dodge some panhandlers that are clever at trying to get something out of you. When I came inside it was a bit of a task as well to figure out where in the store I would find batteries. The signage here is a bit nonexistent. I eventually found the batteries and made it for the front of the store to pay. After a bit of a wait there, I made it outside of the store. Passing the panhandler that I told I wasn't coming in here to make a purchase and having to avert my eyes. read more

If you've been inside a Walgreens, you know what to expect. This Walgreens is similar to other urban ones with two levels. The medicine is on the bottom level. They have everything from food to snacks to deodorant, to toys. read more

For locals this is a nice place to get snacks and milk. The manager and workers are great at keeping this place well-stocked with essentials. Plus downstairs, you can find anything you need such as sanitary wipes. The only snag for me is the cashiering line. There is only one line, and tourists are always in a hurry. If you have a backpack, they won't even let you put your things away before crowding you out. The cashiers seem to only open one register, and if you have any concern, they are not very patient. So my suggestion is that if you need to take your time, get your wallet ready. Also it would really help greatly if they think about installing cashier self-checkout. Self-checkout at CVS works well at Dupont Circle, so why not here? It would speed things up for the tourists, and then I can also take my time without feeling harassed by someone contemptuously telling me that my bag was in their way, so they couldn't help stepping on it. read more

This location of Walgreens was on my way to a meeting and I needed to stop here. It was great because I found what I needed within prices I'm used to add any Walgreens. Service was great specially from the cashier put took care of me. I found easy parking so I had no problem at all. read more

Walgreens - an escalator in a store - Drugstores Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

This Walgreens is ok - I'm in here fairly often, but merely out of convenience. I usually get water from here and it's not far from my office. I've purchased other things and I've found the prices higher than CVS. Once I was buying something from the cosmetics section and saw the item listed for $4.99 but when I got to the register, it rang up for $8.99 (that's $4.00 more - no thank you!!). So pay attention when you're checking out. I have a rewards card but I don't think I shop here often enough to build up enough rewards! The lines are long in here, but there are usually enough cashiers to move the line along. Speaking of cashiers, half of them don't seem to enjoy working here and it shows. There's a Western Union if you need to use that service. Again, this is just a stop out of necessity and convenience for me. read more

Walgreens - On sale with Walgreens card for .99 - Drugstores Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Two level Walgreens with escalator and elevator. Downstairs is the health, beauty, toys and cards. Upstairs is all the drinks and food. I felt safe shopping since they have a police officer at the front door. They charge 5 cents per plastic bag and they won't tell you ahead of time. read more

The people at the pharmacy are friendly but slow and incompetent. I wasted almost an hour trying to use a coupon that the pharmacy had given me to use instead of one I had gotten online, only to find out that it didn't apply to my medication. And this was a coupon the pharmacist insisted I use instead of the one I got online! They said my prescription was ready when I called before coming in to pick it up. They should have been able to check whether the coupon the pharmacist gave me was valid before having me spend 20 minutes on the phone to register it and then 30 minutes for the pharmacy to figure out that it didn't apply to my purchase. read more

After checking in to my hotel yesterday, my family and I wanted to immediately go out and explore Washington.... Ford's theatre was a relatively short walk from the hotel...only half a mile or so and we decided to walk to it because it also gave us the chance to experience the city and see what is around the hotel. OMG! It is so friggin hot! It was like in the high 80s yesterday...common Miami weather and I felt like I was melting into the pavement...my family was in the same boat. I just can't explain how this city feels hotter than Miami. Well we stopped by Walgreens because we needed to get hydrated... walked and got some Fiji water bottles and gulped them down like we just trekked thru the Sahara. 5 stars just for saving us from this heat! read more

Not impressed. Standard items but the service is horrible. Just a feeling of attitude in the place. They should coin the phrase"service with a snarl". read more

Do not use this Store! Especially for Walgreens Same Day Delivery. I did, they didn't fulfill it without me having to call them to tell them there was an order. Then, they did not give the delivery company all the items I bought and they rung up, and told me as much when I called about it (I didn't know that was part of your order....). After 2 days of dealing with the store and website - I have been charged for items I don't have, and they will NOT refund or deliver the items paid for but by Walgreens mistake did not send out for delivery. read more

It's a pretty well appointed Walgreens that is kept clean, well stocked, and with fast service at the register. No complaints and better than CVS. read more

This Walgreens is located one block from my office and it has everything I need when I need it. Fruit, umbrella, cashews, peanuts, ice cream, water, prescriptions, tampons, lotion, and phone charger (because I left mine at home). I'm sure I'll continue frequenting this location for many more items. Because forgetfulness and a girl always needs snacks. I sure do wish the line was shorter though. Or maybe they just need more cashiers. This location stays packed. All the time, doesn't matter the hour of day. In any case, whatever you need, this Walgreens has it. read more

If you're ever just too happy and enjoying life and feel the need to have someone cuss you out, be rude right to your face, or just generally ruin your day then this Walgreens is the place for you. It's a block from my job so from time to time I run over there. Not any more. Today I was treated to this lovely exchange from yet another charming Walgreens' cashier: "Mumble mumble mumble--a bag with that?" "Yes, please" "I SAID did you HAVE a bag with you. Not did you WANT a bag. (huff, huff, eye roll, suck teeth) Do you want a bag?" "Um. Yes." Throws my purchases in a bag, shoves the receipt at me from over the cash register w/out another word or glance. Ahhhh. What superb service! I could go on and on about previous horrific examples of customer service I've experienced here, but I'll refrain. CVS is a few blocks away. Rain, sleet or snow, I'll be hoofing it up the street to CVS from now on. Walgreens--do better. Your employees here are the worst. read more

I went to Walgreens tonight 10/21/2020 around 6:50pm and upon entering the store I saw a police officer not wearing a mask, along Walgreens staff standing around chit chatting (casual convo not like a robbery was in progress lol) with him -one of whom was also not wearing a mask. The officer wasn't eating. He said good evening and something else to me (I didn't hear) and I said hello, and then added please put on your mask since you're speaking to me. He didn't - and I kept walking. He then proceeded to talk loudly about my request that he wear a mask in the store- and made other disparaging comments and also stated emphatically that masks are useless - and don't prevent people from contracting covid (I'm summarizing and putting it much nicer than he did but I'm sure the store has video). At first the mask was around his ears - just not covering his nose or mouth- but he took it further and took it all the way off because I asked him to put it on. As I tried to leave the store I turned on my camera because I was nervous about his behavior - he accosted me about whether or not I was recording him. At first I didn't respond - when he kept talking I simply told him my only concern was that he put on a mask if he's speaking to me. I did have my phone out and Walgreens staff walked away so they wouldn't be in the picture. He told them it was private property so I couldn't take the picture. Frankly I'm shocked that this is happening in Washington, DC - I except this from folks in Florida. Either way it was inappropriate to say the least - especially because he's supposed to be enforcing the mask mandate in Washington DC and I don't think I should have to risk my health when I go into Walgreens for a chocolate bar. Very disappointed in the officer and the Walgreens staff. read more

I cannot understand why the store hide the XL GLOVES in back, thinking my big hands will fit into small. They tell you there is no XL. It's in the store room area. They simply don't bring them out! What a sick manager! BRING THE XL GLOVES OUT INTO THE STORE FOR CUSTOMERS TO BUY! I saw you do it. read more

Nothing special about this place but it does the job. Prices are kinda high but then again it's in the middle of downtown DC. This is a usual Walgreens that has whatever you need so it's pretty convenient if you work downtown. A few cashiers can be a bit surly but not a huge deal since the nice ones outnumber them. Go here and get what you need and get on with your day. read more

It was the night of the Stanley Cup final, and the red was everywhere. Me and my buddy needed beer so we took a shot. Naturally, the shelves were empty. But they actually had some poor dude in the back throwing beer out and basically taking requests from customers through the shelves. I really wanted cans so I took the lonely 6 pack of Buds, only it was a four pack. I didn't care, I wanted to go get ready for the game and thought four would be enough, so I brought it the register and said I would pay full price. Alexandra, Walgreens finest employee, said "no sir, your going to want all six", and proceeded to go into swarm of people, back to the cooler, and found me a full six pack. It's the best service I've ever experienced and she deserves a shout out. She was right, six was just enough to get through the entire game and celebration. And being that the store was located at the center of it all, I think Walgreens did an exceptional job of making it happen. Lines moved quickly, they did what they could to keep shelves stocked, and they all seemed pretty happy to be doing it. read more

I do not even know where to begin! This is the second time I've come to the store and the service was just bad. I purchased balloons the first time and then was told there was a possibility of no helium... A month later I return because of the convenience considering I work nearby and I had to wait 30 minutes for someone to find string to tie the balloons. The first balloon that was blown up was popped and instead of asking another associate to grab the balloon, I was told o fetch it. I then asked for a refund because I was waiting so long and had to wait another 10 minutes. By this time the string was found. read more

This is the BEST drug store in the city. I have been utilizing Walgreens for a long time. Good service very professional and very informative when a question is inquired. On the off chance that they don't have it, they'll order it and it's there the following day. They have dependably been awesome and 100% reliable read more

Walgreens - Drugstores Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

I work across the street, but I only come here when I absolutely have to, based on past experiences of utterly rude or clueless cashiers. Today was no different. It seems all their credit card readers were down. Did anyone bother to put up a sign, or tell the people waiting in line that it was cash only? Nope. My dead-eyed cashier waited to tell me so after she'd already scanned my six items. Thanks for the utter waste of my time! There's a CVS on Penn & 13th a few blocks away, their staff is always pleasant and never leave me shaking my head. read more

The variety of items in this store is quite good, but the staff, a WHOLE other story. I will now go out of my way to avoid this store. The staff is truly that bad with the exemption of two older women (sorry, I didn't have your names but you are great). The younger kids that work in this store have horrible attitudes, apparently have no use for the words please, you're welcome and thank you but if you catch them on a good day -- they will ignore you to speak to each other. I work across the street from this location and like I said, I will walk a few blocks down the street to CVS. This could be a really good store but the lack of customer skills in store is a no-brainer - go elsewhere. If you are in a good mood stay out of this store because you won't leave feeling the same way you came into the store. read more

Went in to buy some snacks, but they wouldn't let me use the restroom. I've used it there before, but this time they were rude and said they didn't have one. After I told them I used it before they said sometimes they let people use it and other times they don't. I put my snack back on the shelf and went to CVS instead. read more

Went to this Walgreens to pickup a Maybelline gift set for my friend's mom that was on sale (listed in the sales circular). It was a few blocks from my job. First, the woman in the cosmetic section was so rude and negative for no apparent reason. Next, the cashiers told me they do not honor Walgreens sales (advertised in the printed circular or online). WHAT? Is that even legal? I just left everything there. My friend's lovely 70 year old mom will have to do without. The women next to me in line was so startled that she said "I've never heard of that!" Maybelline should monitor their relationship with Walgreens. read more

It's your typical Walgreen's. There's nothing special about it. I just stopped in to get my kiwi strawberry Arizona Tea.

The clerks in the beauty section upstairs are all middle aged empty nesters so definitely shop here if you love being nagged by your mother in law and waiting fifteen minutes for someone to come check you out. read more

Every time I've been to this location, I've found items routinely purchased--like almonds, protein bars and other snacks--at prices significantly discounted from those of area grocery stores via bogo offers. Likewise, the register has always been manned and staff available around the store to assist. In scanning others' negative reviews on pricing not being accurate at the register or staff having attitude at this location, I wonder if patrons remembered to type in their phone numbers for reward program recognition or if they have expectations of effusive welcoming. The staff here is quiet/reserved in demeanor, but I think it's a misunderstanding to presume that translates to impolite. For me, it's a plus to shop without being offered assistance every few minutes unsolicited. read more

A nice Walgreens. Has everything I need everytime I go in. Although the lines are long almost always when I am there.

Very friendly staff. Spent 3.5 months in DC and didn't have a glitch with my meds. They transferred all my automatic refills from jersey to their store, and transferred them back when just before I returned. Amazing service! read more

Was at Walgreens 22nd and M in DC. Could they have been anymore helpful? Fantastic pharmacy staff! I appreciate the great service!

I love this Walgreens. I transferred my prescriptions from CVS because this location was closer to my office and therefore more convenient. The pharmacy has been great, very responsive and professionals. The cashiers upstairs are also really nice and this location tends to be well stocked. I definitely recommend. read more

The staff here is amazing. The pharmacists are always willing to help and go above normal duties. I also really appreciate them staying open during the storm!! read more

I used this Walgreens for their video conversion service - I wanted to have old home movies turned into DVD's as a Christmas gift for my mother. I heard that Walgreen's offered this service, and since they're a brand name I trusted them - I was wrong. I had the WORST experience. I dropped off my VHS tapes a week before Thanksgiving and they didn't come back for over four weeks. Worse than how slow the service was, is that no one at Walgreens seemed to have any clue what was going on. There was no tracking number or even an order number that I was given to see where my tapes were or how long they would take to come back. I was just told to call back and check - which I ended up having to do on a weekly basis, and every time I talked to an employee they gave me a different answer on the ETA. It finally came down to the week before Christmas and I was getting very nervous - not just that my gift wouldn't be ready in time but also that I might have sent my families childhood memories out there somewhere and they were lost forever. I got minimal communication from the store and it's employees, all they could tell me was that the my order still said "processing" in the system and the employees of the store didn't seem to have any understanding of how this service worked. It became clear that Walgreens ships your tapes out to a third party, which you have no contact with, to do the conversions and they have very little control or understanding of the process. I finally got in touch with one manager who was helpful and called me when the DVD came back, and while it did arrive in time for Christmas, and the DVD quality is good, I would go elsewhere for your photo services - the lack of communication was infuriating. read more
