About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. Late one night, an advocate for early morning wake-ups noticed something peculiar outside Advocate Pharmacy. A faint, rhythmic beeping echoed through the quiet streets, growing louder with each passing minute. Curious, they approached the pharmacy door and saw a delivery driver frantically pressing buttons on the keypad. ‘Forgot my code again,’ he muttered, smiling sheepishly. The late-night hero shook their head, grinned, and said, “Advocate indeed—advocating for us not to stay up so late!”
2. In the dead of winter, when snow blanketed everything in white, a delivery driver pulled up to Advocate Pharmacy. The wind howled like a beast, and streetlamps flickered ominously. As he stepped out, a voice whispered from behind him: ‘Don’t forget your umbrella.’ He turned around but saw nobody. Shrugging it off as a draft, he entered the pharmacy. Inside, an old lady smiled knowingly and said, 'Forgotten your umbrella? It's been doing that here for years!' Everyone laughed, including the delivery driver, who realized it was just another quirky Advocate Pharmacy tradition.
3. At closing time, a curious customer asked the pharmacist: ‘Do you ever run out of patience?’ The pharmacist smiled and replied, ‘Only when I run out of coffee.’ A regular customer overheard and teased, ‘Then maybe it’s time for another break!’ The whole place burst into laughter as everyone knew that coffee was always in stock—even if patience sometimes wasn’t.
4. At closing time, a regular asked the pharmacist, ‘Why does the same old man always sit on your porch?’ The pharmacist smiled and replied, ‘He’s our resident herbalist. He just sits there, mixing potions and whispering to himself.’ The regular laughed, ‘So that’s why he never talks to anyone!’ The pharmacist nodded with a twinkle in his eye, ‘Apparently, he prefers his own prescriptions over small talk.’
