Some people underestimate Drug Emporium. They have a little of everything. I buy all my makeup and shampoos/conditioners, etc. there. They even carry the Shampoos/Conditioners and any other kind of hair products that are typically only sold in the salons. Oh and I almost forgot to mention they have a plethora of hair care products such as hair dryers, flat irons, curling irons, oh and even makeup mirrors, and when you're in need of perfume or cologne for yourself or a gift Drug Emporium is the absolute cheapest in town I promise, and yes they have the good stuff with their own perfume counter and a lady to help you find the right scent if you aren't sure what you're looking for. They even carry off brands that smell like the real thing in another section. Drug Emporium also also sells grocery shelf and refrigerated items too. Their Blue Bell ice cream is cheaper there than anywhere else. They also have another store inside the store called Vitamins Plus and they have everything you could ever think of for health and diet, including foods. Also in the very back by the Pharmacy they have western themed art, pictures and also some beautiful crosses and wind chimes for sale. They also carry some clothing items, and shoes, tights, scarves, medical equipment, a huge assortment of reading glasses and sunglasses from dirt cheap to average on the prices. Trust me, this place has it all. If you haven't ever been here you will be pleasantly surprised. I am a frequent customer here. I have to mention too that tqhe employees are always very friendly and cheerful too.

Good selection of local finds, some unique organic / gluten free choices too. Some prices are a little high, but given it's often the only store with certain hard to find brands or items locally in stock it's usually worth it. Great staff too. A local kept secret overall.

The fries were tough. Not fresh tasting. We stood at register a bit before anyone came. They saw us. Always a party going on in the cooking area. BLT sucks. Bacon is cold and hard from being out all day. Tomato slice with a huge green core in the middle. I don't think the burgers have a lot of flavor to them. Fries are usually best part, but not tonight. Will be hard to get me back.

Best selection of natural foods in the area. From grass fed beef and poultry to dairy products to anything you need gluten free, or sweetened with stevia, and so much more. We are new to the area and have found our favorite store!

I can usually find what I'm looking for here. UPDATED REVIEW: Good, large store! I shopped last week for a walker due to a recent fall. What I bought at Drug Emporium was WAY less than it would have been anywhere else. I have always loved this store but I love it even more now. I also received help from a very sweet employee. Thanks to him and this store! I will always trade here.

Really like this place. It has everything I usually need to go several places to get the various things I need, from did items to personal items, toys, household items. Check it out. Much easier to get to and the store is huge. Bet you'll like it.

Love this place. They have lots of variety for all of your needs. My only complaint would be that sometimes they get a product I fall in love with but it is only there for a short time.

Very clean & organized store. The employees are all nice & helpful. I called to inquire about a med & the staff worker went & looked & gave me the prices for them without me even asking & also told me what isle it was on after I told her I was driving from Temple.

Like a place you find special articles from a hometown DRUG store. If they don't have what you need, most times they will direct you or order for you your individual needs❣️Always 'Gluten-free' products and usually friendly pricing... gotta love it❣️

As a Clinical and Holistic Skin Therapist/Herbalist/Nutritionist, I send several people per week I work on to Drug Emporium, if I’m out in my dispensary here for various things, especially: Fulvic Humic Acid, Chloraphyll, Black Seed Oil, Serrapeptase, Nattokinase, Ancient Nutrition (Dr. Axe’s brand;) bone broth/stress pre/probiotics, all kinds of rare to find glass jarred Skin Spray Hydrosols, Colloidal Silver Gel and Oral, quality organic perfumes, plus so much more! I love that they have rare incredible foods/snacks I can’t find around here: delicious and nutritious seaweed snacks, Alden’s organic Ice cream from Oregon?, Amazing California organic Olive Oil, etc. They also have an incredible modern jewelry section from my favorite designer (necklaces), beautiful magnetic bracelets for anti-inflammation, some rare pharmaceutical grade medical acne skincare-great for back acne (on the pharmacy side;), some cute home decor items, and so much more! They will order anything you want if they don’t have it-which I love. I also love the Christian music playing pleasantly over the speakers-I find myself humming to it when I’m in there-I appreciate this added bonus. ✨*The only reason I did not give 5 stars, is because the woman over the health supplement department has raised up the prices significantly ($10 in only 4 months ?), since I’ve been referring so many people to buy certain items that I mentioned at the beginning of this review. That is NOT ok. I was really taken aback about this when my clients/patients were telling me the price increase in the last few months. I realize inflation, but $10 in only 4 months is rediculous, especially when I’m sending SEVERAL people in there to buy local every week.

My absolute favorite place to buy natural vitamin supplements. It is a little pricey, but by the time I drive to Austin or college station for what I need, it would be the same. I love the staff. They're knowledgeable and attentive. The cashier was a little bit grouchy and didn't seem happy to be at work that day, but we all have bad days! I'm hoping it got better for her.

I went in wanting to buy cigarettes. They don't sell them. They sell lots of other stuff, kind of like a discount store, like maybe Big Lots. I didn't buy anything.

This place is great. You can get all kinds of stuff here. Everything from name brand shampoo that you would find in salons. All the way to vitamins that are hard to find and even clones and other things like ice cream.

I went in and got some name brand perfume at a discounted price. They have a variety of selected testers, all you do is buy a refillable bottle for $6.99, and you chose the perfume you want, and they will fill the bottle up for you at 10% of the cost of the cologne or perfume. Example: $85.00 bottle of Pleasures from Estee Lowder would be $8.50. Awesome. And when your bottle is empty and you don't want to purchase another bottle the woman behind the counter said she will clean the bottle for free and refill another perfume of your choice for 10%. Awesome!

Staff was extremely unhelpful and not informed of the products that they carried. Used to go here all the time and the store has really gone downhill with customer service and just overall employees willing to help customers.
