It just kills me to give them a one star horrible horrible horrible. Not only is the store filthy and the shelves empty space the clerks can’t even process a credit card transaction. I will drive an extra 5 miles to avoid the store I will never be back

If I could give this CVS location no stars I would. Today I bought 23 gift cards and candy for my staff. The clerk Robbin told me that I could not use my debit card unless I showed her my identification because I spent over $ 200. My debit card has the new chip in it and it was already in the machine so you can’t remove it without voiding the whole transaction. I told the clerk that I had never heard of such a policy when you are using your debit card. Nonetheless I showed her my driver’s license. She then told me that she would have to see my driver’s license with the debit card! I explained to heard that it said on the machine do not remove the card. She then called the manager over and he acts like he is doing me a favor by allowing me to use my own debit card at CVS! What a hassle. I will never shop there again.

Margaret is amazing!
I’m not sure what to say. She remembers my name. She is helpful and knowledgeable. Pharmacists everywhere should use Margaret as a model of how to do their job well. That kind of friendly service and welcoming demeanor is commendable.
Thank you Margaret! I appreciate you!

I am writing this because I really want to compliment the employees at CVS at 10 650 San Pablo Ave
El Cerrito, CA 94 530. Although the one at El Cerrito Plaza is closer to me, but I rather drive further to this CVS. I want to especially thank a employee name Davis. I was only looking for an item with a paper on my hand. He came over and helped me to find the item without me asking for help. This is not the first time. I have been here many times. Another lady name Andrea was also very nice. I love her smile and she is always nice to me whenever I come. Other staffs also smile and offered to assist me when I was there.

I think the blueprint for every CVS is the same: run down, soul crushing, fluorescent lighting, and angry/​indifferent employees. Are they good in a pinch? Yes. Would I choose Target/​Walgreens over CVS? Every time

I love this cvs. Its super close to home and no one is ever there. As we all know, most drug stores of this type always have a wierd following and strange lurking characters about. and thats why I love the fact no one is ever here. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I want to comment regarding Malla R’sreview. Who cares if the cashier has dandruff, you are not giving him a hug, just make your purchase and dont worry about his hygiene! you dont know his issues or his situation. That gentlemen she is speaking about is such a nice guy and is always very helpful and friendly. Some folks dont have it as well as others do so remember that next time you want to bash someone online for their apperance when they are just trying to do their job.

If I could give negative stars, I would. The woman at the counter ‘Margaret’ was very rude and yelled at the friend who was helping me order my prescription due to my speech impediment. She demanded my friend stop talking «because this wasn’t her prescription. How rude cab you be? Margret was rude so don’t hesitate to be rude back.

Wow! They are a hot mess over here! Their customer service is absolutely terrible, the employees have no sense urgency. Just had a really bad experience with one of their employees on nail polish that was marked off 50%. It rang up full price and she told me I could her where the item was, and she saw that there were multiple polishes that same shade with the 50% off sticker. She blamed that on someone else that worked with her then she asked her boss. Her boss said if they aren’t ringing up they’re not on sale. I told her boss that they need to correct the pricing in that section, hence what just happened. They need to get it together. They have terrible problem solving skills.

This pharmacy is the worst that I have ever been to. They don’t call you to let you know a prescription needs to be signed or anything that would hold up your prescription. Instead they wait for you to call and make excuses as to why they don’t care about you or your business. I have had several problems with this pharmacy in the last two months and won’t be using any CVS pharmacy again. Please take your business else where.

I have to agree with the reviews on this CVS. I would like to give them a good review because the staff has been really friendly and helpful but its hard to find them. The store is big and the staff seems to disappear. Even during busy hours they seem under staffed and they have one cashier. The building is big and the shelves always are empty. I think the lack of businesses nearby are hurting this location as well.

I come here basically once a week because it is right next to my apartment building. I really enjoy dropping by to pick up snacks or whatever else I need. The cashier and the manager or shift lead that I always see are very friendly and always ask if I need help finding things.
The rewards card and the dollars back deals are awesome! Highly recommend!

It’s big, mostly empty, and a little ominous. CVS has been hurt by the loss of businesses nearby. I only come here because it’s close to my home. If you don’t need something in a hurry, order from Amazon.

Does CVS stand for Customer service Very Slow? This place is useless

I live just a few blocks from here, and it was a great store as Longs. Prescriptions were filled quickly. The other day, Children’s Hospital called in a prescription for post-​op pain meds for our preschooler, and when I went a few hours later to pick them up, the pharmacist was at lunch and hadn’t filled the order. For post-​op pain meds, called in by a HOSPITAL! I won’t be using this pharmacy ever again. There is no reason it should take more than ten minutes to fill a prescription.

I shop at CVS because they have my favorite sunscreen here and it’s an easy place to get in and out and on my way.
I have sensitive skin and after years of figuring out what works best, I found something that works, Aussie Spray Tan, Number 8 with bronzer. I go through a lot each summer and I end up spending a lot of money on it, so after finding it at CVS for $ 8.99 or less (compared to $ 11 – 12) — I only come here now.
I also like the card selection, seasonal selection of goods and the «Found on TV section» — they make for some good loitering and laughs.

So, the stars are for:
Open early/​late.
Being across the street from home when I need things.
People watching.
Some friendly staff.
But the fact that there are only 3 stars is for:
Crabby old lady cashiers in the morning who are downright rude. Take a later shift if waking up so early makes your ass chapped, ladies. I thought I may be imagining it, but after the 3rd incident I feel free to make this statement public.
Not always so well stocked/​organized.
Yep.

This store used to be great (when it was Long’s) — it was a big store and carried a lot of stuff, including a very nice selection of watches by Timex, Casio, etc. Now CVS took over and remodeled — they don’t carry any quality products and the selection is horrible. They don’t carry any wrist watches??? It’s like a Dollar store. Don’t go here to get anything of quality.
