Established in 1906, Thaxted Pharmacy is located next to the butcher's shop on the main high street.

Thaxted Pharmacy premises allow easy access for wheel chair users and prams and has a dedicated private consulting room and separate pharmacy counter for private consultations.
Thaxted Pharmacy sells a wide range of healthcare products and toiletries. A large number of the medications we sell are only available from a pharmacy and are located behind the main counter. We also stock a large range of toiletries and sundries that are not on display in the shop.
