RIP OFF

I bought Mace pepper spray. Didn't ask the price first. BIG MISTAKE

I paid $30 for a $15 product.

$15 is the manufacturers recommended price.

Try to find another place to buy pepper spray. These guys are not the only ones selling it. Check the price first.

This is one place to buy mace legally. It's very important you purchase it legally and get it registered legally at the store. Don't just buy it on Amazon or in another state you're leaving your self open to some kind of legal attack purchase it legally

Came here to get the COVID-19 vaccine and walked out with a pleasant experience. The administering doctor/pharmacist was friendly and patiently answered questions. Their online booking process was fairly straightforward. Barring the ~45min wait, everything went smoothly.

Easy covid test location. Make an appointment, show up on time. In and out in 10 min. Results within an hour. They email you information for insurance reimbursement Check in and "testing office" luck ambiance but these people clearly care and work hard. Nice neighborhood place

Great place. While purchasing pepper spray, I observed how they treated their customers. I was really impressed. They treated everyone (whether senior citizens, disabled, etc) with the utmost respect & helped many.

I bought my pepper spray here. Fairly quick and easy experience. You show your ID and fill out a form. The cashier showed me all of my options and let me take my time deciding on what I wanted. Overall, it was a good experience!

My boyfriend and I were in NY celebrating our relationship and we had to do a quick stop over at this gem. Friendly , knowledgeable, quick working staff. They had a little bit of everything so it's super convenient for a quick besides your regular prescription needs.
12/10 would recommend.
Cheers guys!

They sell pepper spray in the back and lotto in the front. There are places that sell the sabre spray cheaper but these guys have the double ring quick release keychain which is more convenient. I recommend all femme identifying folks in nyc to carry it-hopefully you'll never need to use it!

This is a very pleasant, old time private drug store. The only thing missing is the soda fountain!

I came here to get an item notarized. The person comes in at 4pm for that, so I waiting for about an hour. I sat at a seat next to the pharmacy, and watched things. What I saw was the following: they are accommodating, friendly, know their regular patients by name, and actually look like they enjoy each other, and enjoy working here.

The notarization is $2 per signature, so that is quite reasonable.

If I lived closer, I would certainly go here when needed, rather than a chain pharmacy.

Highly

There are only several places in Manhattan that sell pepper spray. You cannot purchase it online since NY residents need to register the pepper spray.

Store was easy to find, close to the A/C/E subway line.

Walk to the back register and ask for pepper spray. The cashiers are very nice and will take out 3 models for you to choose from, while explaining the difference between each. They range from $17-$21. The price is more expensive then Amazon, but it's worth it for obtaining a peace of mind. You have to fill in a short form when you purchase the pepper spray.
