I can't believe there's another DR just two blocks north of this one, but I digress…
Very clean, welcoming store compared to others in the neighborhood. The pharmacy is in the middle of an otherwise long, uninterrupted stream of aisles, a layout that I liked.
Checkout was relatively fast despite the long line at the time.
They deleted my 1/2/2016 order because they didn't have the supplies or staff with which to execute on it over the holidays. At least they were upfront about admitting their flippant attitude and were fast about it.
The store as a whole spares themselves from a 1-star since it's a very large plot size, far more than most other Duane Reade's. The staff is constantly re-stocking & the floor plan is regularly updated/refreshed so its circulation is a breeze & easy. The inventory is not only wide but has always been available for the ~10 years I've been commuting by this store.
wow, hard to believe nobody has reviewed this location yet! It's definitely convenient for those "oh shoot, I forgot my toothbrush!" moments right after you get off the bus. I don't normally shop at Duane reade because theres none around boston, so i dont have much to compare it to. It's a large shop right in the port authority that seems pretty well stocked and usually has at least a bit of a line. Service is fast though and not unfriendly. If you're in the port authority and need any last minute toiletries, worth stopping in here.
Best-placed Blockbuster Kiosk. Decent layout. Love the three flight deal and the ability to enter from the subway. The cashiers tend to be SLOOOOWWWW!!! But it's not a bad bet when you're in the city. I'd actually give them a 3.5-star review, if it were possible.
Well, it's in the Port Authority Bus Terminal, so that elevates the skeeve factor by a magnitude of infinity plus one. Lots of sketchy characters hanging out here and you kind of have to dodge them to get to what you want.
The store is L-shaped and it seems laid out haphazardly to me. It took me a long time just to find soap. Maybe I'm not so bright.
There was only one person in line but it took forever to check out…that was more because of the lady who was paying but still, I was in the store for about seven minutes and that was about six minutes and 30 seconds longer than I wanted to be.
Next time I'll just go to one of the four Duane Reade's within two blocks of my apartment.

I've no issues with Duane Reade. They do what they say on the tin with prices equivalent to their rivals.
Conveniently located in Port Authority yet oddly never overcrowded and they do have pleasant & helpful staff.
