A very hip pharmacy, post office and coffee shop, Lukes Drug Mart is one of those great little local places you want in a neighbourhood. From a creative standpoint, you can peruse the shop’s LP selection, and they play a neat variety of new and non-typical music, which always makes me want to work on my own stuff. They’ve got great croissants, good coffee and chocolates, and if you run out of space in your notebook, they sell Moleskine notebooks.
Perhaps the hippest drug store ever, the three Lukes locations in Calgary carry a well-curated selection of new alternative vinyl releases, limited-edition pressings and rereleases. Enjoy a cup of Four Barrel coffee while you browse the platters.
