Walgreens

By now I consider myself a super fan of Walgreens. I really love their pharmacy services and consistent customer service. This location is only 6 months old and across from Town Center on the corner of Virginia Beach Blvd and Constitution Dr.
I am shocked that it has taken me this long to visit the new Town Center Walgreens. I guess the biggest reason is I love my CXB store and staff. So on a day when I was in the area and looking for a specific ad item not in another location, so why not.
From the outside you can tell that the design of this Walgreens is different. All brick and tall lines and fitting of the TC area. I assume the city had something to do with the design of the store, but I am unsure if true. There seems to be plenty of parking with overflow in the mall parking lot if necessary. There is a drive-​thru pharmacy too. The lot, sidewalk and entry way were free of debris.
When going in the store I was taken back and impressed by the updated design. Concrete floors, high ceilings that expose the steel beams and duct work. I really thought it was cool. However, the coolness did not stop there. The whole design of this Walgreens has a fresh contemporary look and I was really loving it! The place is not as huge as you might expect from the outside. They have all the areas most import to it’s customers… pharmacy, photo and cosmetics. But inventory wise it is more a mid size location. I was greeted by Diana while coming in the door which is a Walgreens trademark.
I learned that this is indeed a «special» place called a Walgreens Wellness store. What does that mean this mean to the customer. It is a focus on it customers wellness needs. The pharmacy has many services from immunizations, diabetes testing, cholesterol checks and blood pressure. All this is done in the privacy of a closed off room and it’s very nice. Pharmacy tech Ruby took me for a a tour of the wellness room and provided me into about their services since this was my first time at this location. She was extremely helpful and invited me and family to come back. Also important is they process your insurance if covered for the wellness services.
I came across another clerk on the floor named Peggy who was an older woman with gray hair. After talking a few minutes about how much I was enjoying the store she informed me of a ordering service on the web that I had no idea about. By going to
and choosing this selected store (the only one in VB I believe) you can fill your cart with merchandise in the store, pay for it and have it all ready to pick up. Soon they will even have a curb side pick up. Peggy was so helpful and sweet to talk to.
I found what I was looking for and it ended up not being in the ad and on sale. However, I love the delish line of nuts only carried by Walgreens and moved to the front counter. It was a little backed up and I was called over by Diane to cosmetics to check out which was helpful. Checkout was smooth and I was on my way.
I was impressed with this updated Walgreens Wellness store. This is such a nice place to shop and quite the departure from the rest of the chain. The fact it is a Wellness store makes it that much more desirable. The staff was hitting on all cylinders today and the store is still smells new car fresh. I would recommend the TC Walgreens all day long and plan a return visit in the near future.

A nice new store, a different layout then the rest. The photo people were super friendly and helpful.

New Walgreens on corner of Va Beach Blvd and Constitution. More updated appearance inside than older Walgreens stores. Photo kiosk staff was super helpful in showing me how to get everything working and ensuring the coupon he gave me would work! The only thing I didn’t like about this location is getting into the parking lot. It’s not terribly easy but it’s not terribly difficult either, just a little annoying. Not many spots either.
