PSA: this Rite Aid has boozeI do a double take every time because you dont see that in New Jersey. The staff here are friendly and are happy to assist. The inventory is pretty standard as Rite Aids go. But again, they have beer, wine, and even hard stuff. There is parking in the rear if you cant find parking in the front.

I went in for my medicine. I transferred the prescriptions over a week beforehand, and called ahead to see if it was ready, no one answered the phone, so I had to go in person because I had no medicine left. I asked the person at the register if it was ready and they said my other prescriptions had been transferred but not the one I needed so I needed to call my old pharmacy. They told me it had ben transferred and they’d call the pharmacy to get it fixed, and to call them back in a few minutes. I call them back for an update and they said no one answered the phone. I go back to the pharmacy, and now I’m told that my prescription was actually transferred but 1) the previous employee wasn’t a pharmacist/tech, so didn’t know how to handle the system and was only back there because of a rush and 2) my insurance wouldn’t cover it yet because it had been refilled too soon (which it hadn’t). The generic had been put in instead of name brand which my health insurance doesn’t cover (understandable mistake). I then had to wait 2 days for it to even ship to the store. THIS ISN’T THE EMPLOYEES’ FAULT. Please hire/schedule more people in the pharmacy, cause it’s not ideal to spend 3 hours arguing with pharmacy techs in different pharmacies about what prescription is where because you had a cashier who doesn’t know how to handle prescription refills/issues in the pharmacy because your pharmacy is understaffed. Massive waste of your employees’ time, my time, and very disappointing. Do better. The people who did help me were very nice, this rating is about understaffing, which caused these problems in the first place.

A medication I needed for a procedure was added last minute, the day before and called in to my local Rite Aid. Unfortunately the notification that they did not have it came late in the day. My local pharmacy tech found this one did stock it and transferred the script. They filled it and had it ready by 8p. Everyone was kind, considerate and helpful.

Excellent, well maintained Rite Aid. This branch is also an ok liquor store, with a decent selection of beers, wine and spirits. A bit lacking in the craft beer / IPA department. Good pricing and knowledgeable staff. Worth a visit. Adequate free parking in the rear of the store.

Ive had an extremely long two days, and everyone working the pharmacy right around close tonight (5/26) and the only guy working the front register (I wish I thought to get his name- hes always very friendly) managed to make them a little better. Thanks guys

Very well pharmacy in a close proximity. The Rite-Aid is very well maintained and clean. Great store to get all of your medication from! One flaw about this store is that it is way too small. The store can be bigger and have a better stock. Also parking is not specifically pointed out if you come to the store for the first time. Overall, this pharmacy is great and I would love to go there again!

I go in rite aid all the time I live in highland Park. I met Gail a store associate coming and going. One day above and beyond I was buying a phone and didnt have 10.00 and she let me borrow it it until I could pay her back. Now thats good customer service

As a couple they have a worker constantly making passes at my fiancé. I had to address her before politely but firm she continued to be disrespectful by now not only calling him sweetheart she touched him. Her name is Genesis couples watch out she is overly friendly and this is sequel harassment sad she is a manager there doing that. Now Im suppose to follow up with the store manager Mark. However, Im calling no one is picking up.Neighborhood shopper

Review №14

They never have the medicine in stock. Three different prescriptions and each time I made 2-3 visits “come back tomorrow, we don’t have it stock”. Someone is not doing their job. Not sure if it’s a store thing or corporate logistics failure!

Its a good store. I enjoy their selection and I feel like for the most part the staff is kind, friendly, and fairly cheerful but not overly. The pharmacy staff is helpful, though the line can get long during busy times. Still, its a reasonable wait because the staff is quick to help each customer. Definitely a solid community pharmacy for us here in Highland Park. Oh, they also have a whole liquor section right inside that is open during daytime hours (not sure on specific liquor store hours).

This location unfortunately happens to be the closest pharmacy to my home, but dear god do I hate each and every interaction I am forced to have here.Despite the fact that my doctor sends in my prescriptions electronically - they of course, never fill these once they are received automatically. I have to call (usually several times as generally no one picks up the phone in the pharmacy for at least a few hours everyday) - then once I finally get someone on the phone, we run through the same song and dance where they can’t find the prescription with my name and birthday and I have to spend atleast 10 minutes assuring them that it is in their system until magically, they find it!Then the real fun starts - it takes a minimum of 6 hours to fill a standard basic prescription. I have full business days of waiting - making me miss doses. If you call - they’ll tell you to give them a few more hours, but of course, when you show up, it won’t be ready. Even when guaranteed it will be ready, it never is, so bring a book and be prepared to wait another 45 minutes in store. I can’t even count the amount of times I have missed my morning train, other appointments, or just my general sanity waiting. I wanted to give them the benefit of a doubt with COVID, and have asked politely if they are struggling with new requirements or demands, leading to the ridiculously poor service, but nope. The clueless rotation of interns/junior pharmacists seem to have no clue, they’d rather spend their time chatting up their coworkers and/or just standing around like lumps on a log than figure out how to provide a reasonable level of service and care for their customers.

Staff is rude with the exception of two individuals, and I’ve seen people walking around with no mask. As a matter of fact last night I went in and the security guard was yapping away on his cell phone with his mask on his chin and one of the store associates was coughing profusely. The pharmacists seem to be equally rude.

One of the rarest Rite Aids in New Jersey...! They have wine and liquor! The prices are mostly better than privately owned liquor stores nearby, so this place is my go to place.

Everything you need in a smaller but complete store. 24 hour - sales on outdoor items always reasonable. Food and dairy items as well as wine and spirits. Using coupons for shampoo and beauty items makes it a bargain.

First time at this rite aid, and it’s great!! They sell alcohol!! Great craft beer selection and nice selection of cheap wine; seriously, I got a bottle of wine for 5.49. I love this rite aid, when I came in here i had to remind myself I was still in NJ. Plus, the guy at the register with the long brown hair was super cool! Very friendly! Certainly coming back here for alcohol and other items.

Mark was super helpful! I was running late and he helped me out quickly at the front register. He even opened the front doors for me so I wouldnt have to go around the back and be late for the bus.

Review №28

The at rite aid were very nice and tried to be helpful but in this particular case they were not competent enough to fill my prescription effectively.I brought my prescription along with a manufacturers discount card to the pharmacy. They explained that in order to use the coupon I had to have my doctor get permission from the insurance company and that it would take 3-4 days. I asked how much it was without insurance and they said I could not use the coupon so it would cost $220, which I couldnt afford. I asked for the prescription back and they told me even if I went somewhere else they would tell me the same thing.Well I went to another pharmacy. They had no problem using the coupon and I got the prescription 15 minutes later(instead of 3-4 days later) for only $60(instead of $220) without using my insurance.
