Best Place to Buy Music: Lukes Drug Mart

Lukes Drug Mart

Family run since 1951, Lukes Drug Mart has evolved throughout its three generations of ownership. From once offering pharmaceuticals and postal services to now including groceries, coffee, vinyl records and more. This local hotspot has everything you need for day-to-day life, as well as some extras to make it just a little bit more enjoyable. However, one thing that hasn't changed over the years is the focus that Lukes places on their community.

The outbreak of COVID-19 in Calgary posed new challenges and obstacles for the company to overcome, but Lukes managed to remain open throughout the pandemic. With new plexiglass barriers, providing contactless payment methods and encouraging customers to stay home if they were experiencing any symptoms, Lukes managed to continue to serve their community as an essential service day-in and day-out.

In order to minimize interactions during this time, as well as streamline the business, Lukes Drug Mart created an app that allows you to pre-order coffee. Additionally, they offer free citywide delivery on all prescription orders for which you can also add other items to, like records. Visit the Lukes Drug Mart website for more information on their offerings, products and services. In the meantime, the staff here ask you to continue supporting independent businesses in Calgary as we all get back on our feet.
