Serving York for Over 40 Years

Melrosegate Pharmacy has been a trusted part of the Tang Hall community for over four decades. Located at 275 Melrosegate, our pharmacy has a rich local history — formerly operating as Whitworth chemist, Peel’s Chemist and later Lloyds Pharmacy — and continues to evolve to meet the changing needs of our patients.

Today, we are proud to be an independent pharmacy, led by Pharmacists who are committed to provide accessible, high-quality healthcare for all. Under our current management, we’ve expanded our range of services to support both NHS and private patients with convenience, care, and professionalism.
