Hmmmm, definitely not the open layout I am accustomed to at Legacy or Liberty... Spin around to get a feel for the place. Wine and beer accessible, a fridge of mixers and ale & everything else behind-the-counter. This necessitates talking to the clerks before deciding what I want. Introverted part of me grumbles silently. BUT...customer service wins the day! Clerks are knowledgeable. They greet my disappointment over a missing bourbon with a caliber suggestion for an alternative, gratis backstories of 'buddies' who have enjoyed the brand. Need a small gift to thank my neighbour for hauling our trash to the curb in the early morning. Another recommendation lickety split! (Neighbour verifies it was a quality choice). Will stop in again based on the service alone!

The lot is shared with Woody's Pub next door. The place is a bit dingy and cramped, but there are alcoholic beverages available for purchase. The cold beer and wine section is limited to a few small fridges, but it's good enough for when one is in a pinch. Pricing is noticeably higher than at the government stores, but oh well.

I stopped by the John B Liquor Store for the first time yesterday looking for a specific wine from…read morea favourite Okanagan vineyard. They had it (a wonderful pinot noir), along with several other wines from the same vineyard. That's the good news. The bad news: the inflated prices. I bought the same wine from another private liquor store downtown over the summer for around $22. Here it was $28. Yikes! A nice pinot blanc that I paid $16 for at Liquor Depot was $24 at John B. Comparing John B's wine prices to BC liquor store prices is even more dramatic. They have a very good selection of wine--I have to say that much. But it helps to know your prices before shopping there! In the end, I walked out without buying anything.

We dropped in last Saturday, about 11am, before heading to lunch in the area. I had wished to…read morecatch two or three of the 'specials' listed in their current flyer, which I had found tucked into Safeway's Friday flyer. A good idea I thought, decent prices on some grog I like, and we were heading nearby, via a car, so some easy shopping before lunch. Yeah, right ... no such luck!!! Two of the three products I was seeking were not on the shelves - the shelf cards indicated where the products should be, but the spots were empty. The third product was there, but was listed at full price!! Ok ... time to seek some staff assistance. After talking to the two staff persons, and getting the "we do not have, and do not know when we will have" crapola, I ended up accepting a 'rain check' for the two products they did not have - ignored the other, and we were out of there. Left to wonder - does getting these rain checks really help getting the actual products if/when they might come in? Seems all they could say was "call and ask". Thanks Safeway, I thought your liquor store was not for me when I went there the first time -- I know now those thoughts were on on-the-mark!!

I've been buying my favourite wine here among many other beverages since the store first opened. I…read morerealize it has changed owners since. I went in a couple of days ago and bought my usual box of wine (no judgement please ;)). Unfortunately, it didn't taste right. Something was off. I tried to exchange it twice. First time the manager wasn't there, second time the manager refused to do anything for me. I'm out almost 60$. He told me to contact the winery and maybe they would replace it. He has lost a long time customer. I shop at the Safeway there at least once a week but will now take my business for alcoholic beverages else where. I understand that government liquor stores will take back products that are not right but private liquor stores are at the judgement of the manager. The odds buying a product like this is very slim but beware taking a chance here. Once he has your money, you are out of luck.

A young female staff who worked here greeted me politely and offered help to me. She introduced different bottles of wine to me.
