The Story

One of the last independent drug stores in downtown Athens, Horton’s keeps the old-fashioned counter feel alive amid the college crowd — cold fountain drinks, a little lunch, and no rush.

    RUDE, RUDE, RUDE, and RUDE. Don’t be in business if you don’t want people calling your store! Ugh.

    Called as a new customer and they said they didn’t have a prescription on hand that all of the last 3 pharmacies I’ve used did. Then said that for both of my prescriptions they didn’t know when they would come in, “it could be 2 weeks or it could be 2 months.” How is that kind of uncertainty tolerated in a pharmacy?

    They are awesome! I couldn't get one of my pain medications ANYWHERE and then I called Hortons. Now all of my pain medications have been transferred there. The staff is super friendly and fast. So thankful I found them!

    What I like about Horton’s Drugs/Pharmacy (1) Friendly courteous service. (2) Convenient location to downtown Athens, GA. (3) Prompt service. (4) They have a wide supply of over the counter health care produces, and sundry items. (5) Horton’s drug store is a delivery location for Amazon packages. (6) The cashier is always friendly and helpful. If you don’t see what you’re looking for, she will help you find what you need. Number six is similar to number one, but the cashier/store clerk really goes out of her way to serve Horton’s customers. My only criticism is that Horton’s Drugs needs to keep the store hours posted to Google Maps whenever there is a change in store hours. The current store hours are 9:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M., Monday - Friday.
