I don’t know what happened to the lovely staff at the pharmacy but the new people there are really rude. Firstly, my mum has had her heart medication on repeat at this pharmacy for years, she was told that she could no longer order it through them and she had to contact her doctor. They were very unhelpful towards her and she was quite confused and upset by it, she’s 80 years old, have some compassion. My experience was the two ladies were extremely aggressive (in the pharmacy) when I questioned a lady who I thought had jumped the queue, all I said was “I was next”. The two ladies behind the counter verbally jumped on me like a pair of Rottweilers, when I was served, I gave one of the women the name of the some antihistamines tablets I wanted, she barely looked for them and said aggressively that they didn’t have them. She didn’t offer me any other alternative. You can’t tell me that there were no antihistamines in the whole of the pharmacy. she just didn’t want to serve me she had a really bad attitude.I won’t be using this chemist again I’ll go to boots.

Terrrible, terrible service. Made an order and picked the 'collect in 30mins' option. An hour goes by, nothing is said to me so I contact their live chat. Their live chat, an operator by the name of Sean then proceeds to offer no help and provides a number that nobody answers. I then head down to the store at Dalston and ask about my order, seeing as it has now been an 1hr +, I assume it would be there. As I get there, I then receive an email saying my order was cancelled...So Sean, the "very helpful" operator cancelled my order without my knowledge! All in all, the service from Superdrug was pathetic.

I was quite upset after coming here and being mistreated by a young man at the tills. After waiting in line for 15 minutes, there was a mistake with the product that I wanted to buy. I tried to explain that there had been a mistake with the barcode sticker on the product that I wanted to buy because the price and product on the scanner was different to the price displayed on the shelf and what the product actually was. He absolutely did not care and his response was patronising and demeaning. I won't be returning and I sincerely hope that other people aren't treated this way when they go to the store.

  • Samena Begum

I only head over to Superdrugs when Boots just don't have the products I want. To be honest, I like Superdrugs stores, but this particular one is a big dislike. It's almost always too crowded no matter what time you go in, the staff are hardly around to help you, it's a small store (I prefer Westfield) and I was once spoken very rudely to by the security guard who had a problem with me testing out a TESTER makeup. It's not like I opened a new product, jheeze! Plus, as a point collector, compared to Boots, they give rubbish Beautycard points.

  • Evan Walcott

Well I was expecting one shaving product that I couldn't see this being mens shaving oil, the only one that I saw was expensive king of shaves cost £3•10 that was reduced and still I found it to much money for the something of that size being 20ml I can get one from savers being less £1•99 and I thought that was alot of money. My point is I can purchase this from one of the major supermarkets sainsbury for £1•00 and because I suffer with dermatitis allergic reaction, so not to impressed with their price.

  • Valerie

If I could give a 0 I would. I was looking at nail varnishes deciding what colours I wanted to buy as there was a 3 for the price of 2 offer. An employee said to another employee very indiscreetly to watch me. I’ve never been so offended. As a black women I take that as the highest form of disrespect. This is my local Superdrug, I come here all the time. I say hi, please and thank you when the staff can’t even be bothered to smile at the till. The staff here show how slow progress in society is.

  • Samira Mahmud

  • Rashad Al-Karooni

Impatient and arrogant staff, murmuring about me and not listening to my initial query which I articulated politely - particularly from the senior member who seemed to have a chip on her shoulder. Again demonstrating ignorance in not listening to my ‘difficult sounding name’ correctly with two separate staff members asking me to write my name down after agreeing to the first time. The place was not even busy so the lack of respect was not really warranted.

  • Roger Bartholomeusz

Very rude and dangerous pharmacy staffs. There is a short girl and a tall girl who looks like eastern European face. I don't understand why the hell they are working in the pharmacy. They were handing out to me wrong medicines. I was shocked and stressed. They do not accept complaints. They are working without any responsible because of some one's influence I guess. Super drug must have to get rid of them ASAP. Where should I write about this matter?

  • Michelle Dixon

Always an extremely long queue at the till despite there being lots of staff on the shop floor. Had a rubbish experience there this week when I asked for some help to find something and was told by the member of staff they couldn't move from the spot they were in. Tried to raise this with head office via a complaint and they didn't seem bothered either. My advice.....go to boots around the corner.

  • RC :

not good extra long queues only one person on till , and when you get to the till you get asked " do you want this shampoo shower gel deodorant etc ,pile of stuff they trying to flog at the till Staff need to learn some manners and Superdrug need to get some staff and stop making them push you to buy more at tills ,it only makes people not want to go back like me .

  • Alasdair Gibbs

Consistently a 15-20 minute queue for less than 10 people to get served. They seem to insist on only having one person on the till at any given time, usually with someone else just stood by the door for reasons unclear, even when they can see the long queues. I guess some some of greeter role, but just sort of frowning at you as you come in.

  • Caroline Akparanta

This particular branch is too crowded with lots of things. The layout needs to change and open for customers to be able to see the items on the shelves and room to move around. I was able to get the product needed on this visit. Superdrug is still one of the best places to go for health, hair, home and beauty products with excellent prices.

  • Gemma Hackett

Fairly good selection of stock in this store especially given it is on the smaller side. However the shop is extremely cramped and difficult to negotiate the aisles when busy as they are so narrow. The store is drastically understaffed. I don't think I have ever been in a queue with less than four people ahead of me.

  • Caitlin Ballard

Hannah from the Pharmacy is such a wonderful help. She seems to remember all her customers/their needs, and always pushes my orders through as soon as she sees them. She has even looked for an alternative for me before i've come in when she sees something is out of stock with the supplier. Thank you!

  • R W Hamilton

Messy. Shelves are cluttered. I know it's Dalston but are customers not worthy of a nice shop? 10 employees working in store and it looks like a dump. Also, wouldn't recommend the click and collect service here as they seems to always fail to have them ready on time. Go elsewhere if you can.

  • ruben gomez

I love the wide variety of products with a sale price every week.The attention inside the place is extremely friendly ... they always offer great information .with a smile , the quality-price observation is unmatched, you always find the best at a great price Brilliant..

  • Alexandra Ramírez

Absolute chaos. Understaffed. Large queues. Poor management. Waited over an hour for prescription that was ordered days ago and marked as ready to pick up - coming and the lady says it’s not ready. After 40 min wait they confused the quantity of each meds ‍ …

  • Roni The Dog

A solid five stars to Superdrug for partnering with Terracycle so that we can recycle our empty medicinal blister packs. We locals are lucky to have a store with a pharmacy in the community, as blister-packs can only be recycled in Superdrug stores with a pharmacy.

  • Honey Bunny

I did manage to find some items.However, I was disappointed that the eyebrow scissors I wanted were not sold individually, and it was a waste of money to buy the kit. Also too hot in this branch can't be in there too long feel faint. Staff are friendly and helpful.

  • Viviana Rossi

Terrible experience! I was trying out a make up tester when the security guard attacked me saying that make up wasn't there to try. When I showed him that it was a tester he got very rude and aggressive. I am speechless. Definitely not going back there. Avoid!

  • STEVE E.5

Check the tickets below the item you wish to buy , some are bogof but when you get to the till they try to charge half price for the second item. Then they'll torture you for half an hour telling you that it wont go through the till...shabby

  • Mel Maa

It's a small store not really easy to get through here with a pram or wheelchair, pharmacy in-store friendly and helpful staff , good product availability, price ££ , good range of hair products for all type of hair available

  • Kensy Skye

It's a shame that such a good store hires such bad staff....I asked a few of the staff to help and I seemed to be a nuisance to them!!! So now if I use the store I make sure I know what I'm buying beforehand....

  • Grant Barmby

The best pharmacy in Hackney E8 with the most pleasant staff who are consistently accurate and supply me with excellent service, communicate effectively and all round support with my medications and health care.

  • TARA Adani

I was served by a young woman I think her name was Marie. Oh the patience this girl had for me when I was so indecisive about the product I wanted. Thank you so much for tolerating me ! Amazing service

  • Jenny Stubbs

The staff here are super kind and helpful. I often see them take time out to help vulnerable, elderly or less able customers. I use the pharmacy counter regularly and the customer service is excellent.

  • Robert Giacomo

Went in there other day and hot air was blowing (July). One person serving with a queue of ten customers, yet one staff standing by entrance giving out baskets! Left item and got it opposite in H&B.

  • Toria Gibson

Staff are OK at times but they do like to have conversations amongst each other. The pharmaceutical department are very friendly and helpful and are always available to help (apart from sunday)

  • Annette Reid

Has everything you need but the aisles are way too narrow for the amount of people visiting. Also the signs need to be higher so that you can see at a glance what is down each tight aisle.

  • Theboyz London

Friendly enough but why all the questions when buying "over the counter" meds?. My ailments/pain/requirements, quite frankly, is no one's business but mine between myself and my GP

  • Tim Barnes

Booked a flu vaccination, arrived to say it had been cancelled but that they'd not told me. The only positive was that I got an hour of exercise out of getting there and back again

  • Mel Za

Do not try the testers you will be watched like a hawk also the lines are ridiculous to much of a wait and then they try to sell you perfume come in Superdrug sort this out

  • SumWelshLadInLondon

Nothing negative to say really, good selection, prices are okay (though on the higher end). Customer service is really good, and the staff are nice!

  • Miles Donovan

Unbelievably slow to get my prescription. I’ve no idea what the staff are doing, complete and utter incompetence. Go somewhere else. Useless.

  • Christopher Wright

Wasn't a good experience. Had to wait about 30 minutes before I got served and some of the customers were a bit rude to put it mildly.
