This is one of my favorite places in town. 3/9/2009

The HP Pharmacy is fabulous. The staff is friendly and the food is GREAT!!!!! As far as all the negative remarks on this place, people need to think about it. How many places do you get to see them prepare everything right in front of you? You have no idea what most places do to your food. I think they do a great job of cleaning and preparing food. Yes, they are very busy sometimes but for the most part you can be in and out in under a 1/2 hour which can't be done many places. Pros: Great Food, Fun Atmosphere, Kid Friendly Cons: Not Enough Parking more

Worst Service Ever..... 10/19/2008

I joined Citysearch just to let me people know to stay away from this place. It was rated high for good breakfast. We sat down and didn't even get acknowledged for 15 minutes. Not even a glass of water, can you wait a bit, nothing. It wasn't even that busy. We got up and left. Cons: This tops my worst service in any place that I've visited. more

Magazine's Can Lie 6/1/2008

Read about this place in Paula Deen's Magazine so thought it had to be good. Wrong!! Maybe her picture crew got better food or more of it, but for the high prices and poor amount of food given, I would not recommend this place. If you live close by and want to look, that is fine, but with the price of gas just buy Paula's magazine and you can look at the pictures at a lot lower cost. My other complaint was that my counter space was not very clean. The girl gave it a quick swipe....not good enough. Still had some sticky stuff and needed to grab her attention for another good wipe-down. Be your own judge. Pros: Old Timey Look of Pharmacy/Fountain Bar Cons: Expensive Food....Stingy With Quanity more

Not Sanitary 4/2/2008

We were enjoying our sandwiches and milkshakes at the counter last saturday when we witnessed something that was downright baffling. You would think it would be pretty hard to make a sandwhich with 1 slice of meat in an unsanitary way but they succeded. Cons: Food handling procedures more

Mmmmmm... Alpo.... 1/20/2008

No breakfast on Sunday. The only restaurant in Dallas that doesn't serve Sunday Brunch. While I was there, 3 other couples came in and wanted breakfast. Sorry. They'd be happy to make you some toast or get you a bowl of cold cereal. Super. more

Neat little spot 11/9/2007

I guess some folks just prefer chains and cookie cutter experiences. Me, I like this little spot simply because there's nothing like it anywhere in Dallas. It's refreshing. How many pharmacies do you know that have a soda fountain? So the menu is pretty basic, it still isn't too hard on the wallet. And, this is a great place to take kids, too. more

Rip-off 7/26/2007

Yes the milkshakes were good, but we ended up paying $10 for a milkshake and a sandwich. The sandwich was just two pieces of wonderbread with like a slice of butterball round turkey, the kind you make for a 2 year old and it cost $4!!!! Unless you want to pay for the scenery, which is not that great either, you're better off going to potbelly's which has better icecream and more food for cheaper prices. more

I love this place! 7/26/2006

A little slice of Dallas history, along with ice cream and a pimento cheese sandwich. Nice part of town, too! more

Wonderful 12/13/2004

The food at Highland Park Pharmacy is wonderful and their shakes are even better. This place has been around since 1912 and there is a reason for it. Friendly staff and wonderful food. My favorite meal consists of: A grilled cheese sandwich and a shake (Lime Freeze) or malt. With tip it is usually around $8. They have wonderful food. The only downside: usually pretty packed with shoppers, kids and people on their lunch break. Still worth it! Pros: Delicous, Nice Staff, Reasonably priced more

    This corner store was founded in 1912, and little has changes since, except perhaps the products. Patrons sit at the old fashioned soda fountian-like counter or one of the few...
