When I asked for them to the cameras, they had an employee go check and come back and say I didn't pay. another employee decided to look for the back on the video and see that I did pay and tell everybody like hey he paid for his Items. but employee who stopped me, was very rude and said just because the way I look, she could tell I stole from the store.

On Google you'll find both "Westmere Wine & Liquor" and "Westmere Liquor Store," and here on Yelp, it's also "Westmere Liquor Store." But they're all the same place, at 1810 Western Avenue. For a relatively small space, it's amazing how much they carry and just how well organized it is. The wines dominate the middle aisles. On the right, you have some New York State wines, and you've also got Asian selections, including a large variety of Sake. On the left, you have your liquors, and these are competitively priced. Plus, given how close it is to my home, it's very convenient for me.

I love cheap wine. Not just any cheap wine. Good cheap wine…read more Actually I strongly believe, that with so much good wine on the market, there is no reason to ever pay more than $20 for an incredible bottle. And that you should be able to get very good wine for much less. Wine stores do not generally tend to agree with me on this. Most stores only sell rot-gut for under $10. Not this place. In fact, they have an entire wall dedicated to highly regarded and reviewed, inexpensive wines under $10. This puts them on my short list of places to buy wine out here. If you want rot-gut, well, they have that too. But seriously, pony up the extra $2 and get something that's actually good. Still would like to see a Trader Joe's, or find a place that sells close-outs but this will do for now.

Pretty big store, that I visited previously, so I was confident that they would carry the product I was searching for (or one of a few similar items). The clerk tried to help but referred me to his his boss to see if they carried or could order what I was looking for. The "boss" recommended a product that was in no way similar and made snide comments after I thanked them for their help and left. You can't compete when you're rude to the customers.

It's very well organized as well. Whenever my beer-enjoying friends are in the area, this is a must-stop.
