About
The pharmacy James J. O'Mara Pharmacy Museum in Newfoundland occupies Apothecary Hall, 488 Water St, St. John's, NL A1E 1B3, Canada, on one of the city's main downtown streets.

A rating of 4.6 out of 5, drawn from 27 reviews, shows how visitors respond to the collection. Anyone wanting a working pharmacy for medicine should look elsewhere in the city.
