First time flying into Durango…read more Leaving the airport and getting out to the main road you come upon Upper East Side Liquors. My husband is always on the search for a new or unique bourbon. So what else do you do when you get into a new city? I don't know what you do, but we hit up the liquor store. Upper East Side did not disappoint. My husband found his holy grail bourbon, which is not found where we live in SC. But wait, one bottle per customer. So guess what, we frequented Upper East Side a few times before we left Durango. We had to reorganize our luggage. But we left happy. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. We loved Durango. By the way there are many liquor stores in the area. We stopped at a few others but UESL had the best prices. See ya in the spring!!!

Great liquor store with a fantastic selection. Interesting mix of bombers. Would like to see more…read morelocal & regional beer like special releases from New Belgium. Would like to be able to special order as well (miss my Guinness Foreign Stout). The ONLY store in the Four Corners to have an extensive locally distilled wall. ONLY one to carry John Taylor's Velvet Falernum as well. Nice wall of tequila good group of whiskeys and rums (Zaya is excellent)! Friendly, knowledgeable staff and the store has monthly specials and events with brats & bands. No city tax so it's worth a stop for sure!

As far a I know they have No connection with our local community. Sorry New Owners of Durango Liquor, Durango is community that supports Local owners and visa versa. I was upset how I was treated as a single older woman! You obviously know Nothing about DURANGO! Hire locals who KNOW the product & people! I will Never return until that time. GOOD LUCK

I'll just say this: there's a polite way to treat potential customers. My mother and I were heading…read moreinto Walmart for a few quick items, while my fiancé was excited to check out the liquor store. We love to drink and make merry and likely would have spent a small fortune. Instead, we were met by a man stationed outside like some sort of gargoyle - glowering, joyless, and apparently guarding the door - who informed us, "We're too busy in there to serve you." Wow. Turning away paying customers? Not smart. Allowing a gargoyle with a rude, hostile demeanor to represent your business? Even less wise. We'll be taking our LA fortune elsewhere, thanks. And by the way, I almost never bother to write negative Yelp reviews. I'm a positive person who prefers to lift others up. But this man's treatment of us was simply inexcusable.

I will never shop here again because they are at least 25% more than Liquor World on a fifth of Captain Morgan Spiced Rum. I've noticed a dollar or two difference with various liquors at various Durango Stores but 25%???? BUYER BEWARE

If you want to wait an hour for food, and hear the bar staff arguing with the kitchen and getting…read morefrustrated with the staff. This is the place to be. While I've enjoyed the food here before. The service tonight was slow and awful, while the bartender is nice, when they come out and announce the people sitting at the bar "if you ordered food, sorry for waiting but Edgar cooks when he feels like it". And also "I'm scared to go back and check on your order" or "if I complain too much he walks out" It's not a great thing to experience. And then complains to the customer about it. Also had another bartender come in after seeing him take several shots and then work behind the bar and admit he has several shots and likes working like that. Which is a safety hazard. This visit made me feel really uncomfortable and sounds like if you come in, you might get a night where people don't want to work.

Mike helped me navigate through a few bourbons and discussed a few new distilleries. Mike was excellent in his referrals having tried most everything we were interested in. I rarely see this amount of participation from store owners or interaction with customers. He must have said hi to five people by first name as we talked about different expressions. The selection of craft beers was also outstanding. They even do their own barrels and collaborations with local breweries for the store! My favorite part was that the Prices are the best you are going to find in Durango!! Also the store is very clean and welcoming. Would recommend 1000%.

The place has cleaned up a lot and though it appears a little rough around the edges on the outside, the interior is quite charming. What once was a run down looking liquor store now has that small town, warm and inviting atmosphere that brought me back to Durango after leaving for time. The Owners Jay and Gin are some of the warmest and nicest people. It is a true family owned and operated business that has a really nice and friendly staff that is employed there now. I stopped shopping there years ago because of a rude owner. Place is clean and friendly now. I live nearby so it is nice to be within walking distance! If you haven't been in there lately, stop in. They have a great selection of wines that are priced well. I ordered a fancy bottle of Dom Perignon from them last year for Christmas. Their selection is not huge but the owners certainly do accommodate if you have a special request. They really seem to cater to "Local" companies also and have a lot of Colorado products. It's a great small family owned and operated business and they certainly earned my business again!
