Boots Pharmacy

Small but very busy shop with limited parking but convenience is just a big thing here. The place is always busy and packed and there are tons of people there. Parking can be a challenge as there are 2 parking spaces just in front of the shop but otherwise you need to find somewhere to park on the street.

Good to have a small boots with access to some knowledge and important medicines.

I use my local Boots Chemist in Bream it is very handy as we are right behind them. It is a small but very busy shop and the staff are extremely helpful and very friendly. We are very blessed to have a local shop like this in the village, considering so many local businesses in the country are being closed down.

Convenient that there is a boots locally, however you always have to wait ages to be served, even when there's no customers. Good repeat prescription service and handy text messaging service to let you know your prescription is ready. (Helpful when it works.)

I can get everything I need here. And, if not, they can order it in for me. Always helpful.

Good chemist, as a boots you can order online and get delivered here. Excellent facility.

Was sent here by NHS 111 as it was the closest. Would have preferred to have driven to Coleford or Lydney to be honest.
Way too small to deal with the current Covid-19 issues, despite them controlling how many people go in. Even 2 at a time is way too cramped with 4 staff, in a tiny space.
None of the staff were wearing gloves or face masks and one member of staff was coughing the whole time she served my husband!
Not professional at all. Didn’t have all the prescription order either and had put it all together and taken payment before telling us that, rather than saying it up front. We could have gone to a larger store and got everything all in one go. Instead we had to risk our health again to pick up the missing items.
We we’re told to ring to see if the item was in stock, but we couldn’t get through by phone - it either rang forever or was engaged!
Will certainly avoid during the pandemic and in the future

Friendliest, most helpful chemist I've ever used. Thank you!

Good little pharmacy in the heart of bream stocks most things with friendly staff but due to a very slow prescription turn around long cues form outside due to only 2 person restriction in the shop, so you cant go and buy anything off the shelf because there is always two people waiting for their prescriptions inside the shop so if you have kids or are elderly your forced to wait on the side of a busy main road.
