They have only three beers on tap, but a decent selection of bottled and canned beers available. Large selection of wine, and liquor. They even offer to cork the bottle of wine if you choose to purchase a bottle, but not finish it, to take home. We sat at the bar and had a couple drinks. My wife ordered some kind of bread with a garlic dip, maybe. I don't recall exactly but it was good. Bartenders were cool and the vibe was chill. It was kind of dead when we were there. Riverside was certainly busy, because the dart bar next door was shoulder to shoulder when we left this place. This is a cool spot to grab a drink and talk amongst each other, as other bars in the area tend to be very loud. As for the liquor store itself. There seems to be a decent selection of liquor, and wine. They host the annual wine fest which is worth checking out if you haven't been. Make sure to pick those tickets up in advance, as it does sell out on the day of.

We went on a Wednesday, where they offer a free corkage fee on any bottle of wine purchased in the store. Food wise, their menu leans towards tapas-style. They also have a few mains, which was a nice surprise as the last time I came in, they were exclusively tapas. The table ordered the deviled eggs, pretzel bread, lamb meatballs, sliders, shrimp quesadilla, and the French dip. All were solid picks - the call outs were the French dip and the lamb meatballs. Everyone also all enjoyed their wine or cocktails. Our only complaint was that they were out of 4 or 5 menu options, a couple of which we were originally interested in. Will be back next time I'm in town!

First time here. I'm not really a "regular" at any liquor store, but there are two other shops I…read morego to when stocking up the bar. The folks in these stores smile and greet you when you walk in. Ask if they can help you find things. Guide you to the correct register when you're ready to check out. And say "Thank you! Have a great day!" as they make sure you've got your box or bags all together and hooked around your hands to carry out to your car. I happened to be near this store one morning and decided it was convenient enough to drop in. The first thing I noticed was the lack of sales and specials. I won't pretend I did anything like a comprehensive price comparison, but I can "spot check" a couple of prices that happened to be fresh on my mind. One thing I got the previous week at another store was a BOGO bourbon for $30. So basically $15 a bottle. Fantastic price. But here, their normal price was $35. That immediately made me worry that I was paying an extra $5 or more for each item, so I really limited myself to just the necessities, instead of a shopping spree to try out a few new brands or bottlings. The shelves took a while to figure out. They had "American Whiskey" separate from "Bourbon," which threw me off for a while. And I think some of the sections wrap around to the other side of the shelves, without the area being labeled. So it's easy to miss things when hunting around. Then finally, checking out was an experience. They had two people working there on a slow morning. One was focused on the drive through. The other was stocking something, so did nothing to direct me to the right register. I just strolled back and forth trying to figure out where to put my things. Then the card reader on that register seemed broken. Just blank. So I didn't swipe like she expected. Just an awkward silence. So I asked, "what next?" so she would wake up and realize something was off. She hit a few keys on the register. Mumbled something about trying again. But it was still blank and I'm not about to swipe at a terminal with no idea how much I'm swiping for. Then I guess she sent the transaction to another register and mumbled something else to let me know. So I strolled back and forth trying to figure out which card terminal was prompting me for my card. I swiped two registers over, finally closing out the process, and she was still standing there at the first register with my 2 bottles and bags expecting me to walk back and retrieve them. No "sorry about that" or "here, let me hand these to you," or "thanks, have a great day!" Maybe a petty thing to point out. But overall, with my concern about prices, finding things, bad communication, and sleepy customer service, there's truly no reason why I'd ever pass a dozen other liquor stores to get to this one again. I'd rather go to the ones where people yell "Norm!" when I walk in, and make me feel special.
