Dearest Bevmo, I generally am a huge fan of you, but will never visit this particular location again. It would be lovely if you'd hire employees who actually have people skills, rather than ones who bitch at every single person in line for no reason whatsoever, even when they're determinedly cheerful. That older lady who was running the cash register on the 3rd around 2pm? Yeah. She's incredibly unpleasant, which also makes her slow, because she's taking so much time to yell at each customer. You may want to give her a talking-to, or reassign her to other duties. I'm sure there are some numbers she could crunch, or a stockroom to which she could be relegated. At any rate, I'll continue to visit your other lovely locations. Just not this one. Love always, Caitlin read more

I do not have ONE nice thing to say about this place... I used to come here every now and then but now I will never return. For my wedding anniversary I decided I would get my husband beer. No, not because I'm cheap (but I am) but because he LOVES beer. I knew he never even heard of San Miguel which was recommended to me by a coworker from the Philippines. Being that the hubby loves dark beer that's the one I was looking for out of the four that are produced. I called EVERYWHERE! This store was the only store (not just the only Bevmo) in San Jose that had the dark San Miguel beer. From what I understand it's not exactly the most popular beer out there but there were also issues with the distributor making it even more scarce. Anyway...this store had it! SCORE! I ask the guy on the phone to put it on hold for me. He doesn't ask my name so I volunteer it. I tell him I will be there in the evening and he confirms that it is not an issue. I spend 15 minutes looking for parking. It's a busy time for Willow Glen. Beer is not on hold. Cashier is a lazy idiot who ignored me and other customers. I had to ASK her to ring me up. Another lazy employee just brings me a case of San Miguel beer. I buy it trusting he brought me the beer requested. I don't know ONE thing about beer. The next day I learned it was the exact opposite of what I asked for. Jerkface. To add insult to injury the cashier did NOT ID me. DO YOU KNOW HOW OLD AM I? I am ID checking worthy. When I told her my age she laughed at me. ARE YOU SERIOUS! DO I LOOK OLDER THAN FORTY?! My MOTHER is in her 40's. Where was this lame cashier when I was underage? This place needs to be secret shopped. read more

This is definitely one of the smaller BevMo locations out there. The selection is still what you'd expect of BevMo, just on a slightly smaller scale. A typical weekend for me involves wandering into this location, perusing the beer selection and finding a new and interesting brew to take home. Prices on spirits and wine are definitely competitive and it helps to have a BevMo card to save even more. With check-ins using the Yelp app I'm now the "Duke" of this location and the Fremont store. Problematic or the sign of a dedicated customer? I'll leave that up to you... read more

My dad's had a BevMo card dangling off his keys forever. Last time he was in town, I invited him over to my place. We went on a walk and then I was letting him inside and he noticed my keys. "Oh, you have a BevMo card too!" he said excitedly. "No dad, that's a Border's card!" And my dad marveled at how an intelligent and lovely daughter such as myself could come from an alcoholic father. (Well, my dad is really not an alcoholic, and he is incredibly intelligent) Anyway, thanks to this place, I now have a BevMo card too. Watch out, Dad! read more

Parking at this BevMo is a bit tight and the store is long and narrow, but Daniel Garcia deserves a 10! Daniel was very pleasant when we ordered the four kegs for my daughter's wedding this past Saturday (Oct 12, 2019). He also followed up on the day of the delivery. Since the reception was right around the corner and down a bit he made sure that our order was delivered first. Such a pleasure, thank you again Daniel! read more

There is a decent selection at this BevMo location, but it is a lot smaller than the others I've been to. Staff was pretty helpful and I was able to check out right away. Parking can be difficult to find in this area, so not sure I'll be back unless I'm going somewhere else in Willow Glen. read more

It wasn't the best experience. There's a women, brunette, maybe the manger, pretty rude. It's corona times I get it, so she placed my change on the counter. Where as I placed it in her hand. I asked for a bag, she grabs the bag and hands it to me. I'm not too familiar with BevMo but I would assume if a customer purchased a large quantity or heavy items, it would be bagged. I asked her do they not bag the items there, she replied I would if you asked me, but I did. I didn't have time to confront her any further, but I will never go back. Thanks for the great customer service. read more

Good selection but Wilfred Wong's reviews can bite my a$$. Seriously, the guy will give a 90 for any swill someone throws in his trough. Sorry, just pissed off cause I wasted enough $$$ for wines he should be ashamed of touting. So that being said, ignore their in-house sommelier Wilfred Wong's recommendations (cause I'm not kidding the same rating for the two buck chuck as for a chateau la tour. ok, that's probably not accurate, but it COULD be). Also, I've learned from being a sucker before to completely avoid their inventory clearing scam of the 5 cent sale too. I've never found a wine that was worth half the price they were charging that was on one of these sales. Disappointing to know you've just cleared out their undrinkable stuff. This particular BevMo however has a nice selection of tequilas, whiskey, and grappas as well as wine. Their beer is not competitively priced however and I think that's a mistake - its worth it to me to go to Cherry liquors at Willow and Bird for beers. I also get a little annoyed that the Lincoln avenue entrance is usually blocked. But there's almost always parking in the back, so thats good. Nice staff - very helpful. I don't always agree with their recommendations, but I appreciate their willingness to try as much of the stock as possible! heh heh. read more

BevMo is just a business nothing special. You go in buy alcohol and leave. The staff is limited and the higher end hard alcohols are locked up, so you end up waiting for someone roughly 3-5 minutes. Then they carry the precious bottle to the register. I go there mainly for the 5 cent wine sale. It great. They used to let you mix and match higher priced wines, but "their policy changed" as I was informed. I'm sorry trying a wine at $40 a bottle and your making me get two? I liked when I could purchase two different ones on the sale. So if your looking to try wines, go to Safeway. Safeway often runs a 10% off with purchasing 6 bottles and an additional 30% off with club card. You can mix and match any. They have competitive prices. I left BevMo today with 2 1/2 cases of wine, no longer excited about the 5 cent sale. read more

This is a nice little place. Easy to get in and out. The cashiers are helpful and friendly. read more

BevMo! - From the parking lot. - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - San Jose, California

Best selection anywhere, hands down. Only place guaranteed to have capriccio and some of the other harder to find brands too. Just wish it was a little cheaper but if you give them your phone number you can unlock member pricing and special deals. read more

The short: One of the smallest BevMo's I have ever seen. At least they have the basics and some. The long: Out in Willow Glen for the weekend and after dinner I wanted to grab a little something to take back to the hotel to continue the adult beverage consumption. Imagine how pleased I was to find when I wandered on a BevMo halfway down the block. I wandered in and what did I find? I had just made a wrong turn into someone's closet. Yup it is that small. On the plus side there is just about every kind of booze you would want there, even if there is not every brand you may want. You will also find inside employees who are more than happy to help your find whatever it is that you are particularly after. Sure it isn't the regular giant BevMo monster store, but the staff makes up for it. What works: A wide range of products to choose from. What to improve: Parking sucks but hey it's the part of town you are in. read more

Selection is one thing, but service is most important. I do like the selection and price here are Bevmo, but was disappointed at the service. Not only was there a line and only 1 register open, with other employee's yaking around, they didn't offer any box/bag to carry my goods (I had plenty of goods). Might come back in a pinch read more

All BevMo's are the same, I'm just picking on the one on Lincoln Ave in Willow Glen. It's just a liquor store with overly bright lights and loud music. I find the wine selections to be bland. The 5-cent sales seem like a bargain until you bring the wines home and realize that the original price was too high, so they're dumping what they had. The Wilfred Wong reviews are a gimmick that has always annoyed me. Everything is "86" to "91" points. Ever had a 75, Wilfred? Even once? Where'd you come up with that point scale? His comments never match up with the quality of the wine, in my opinion, and they deserve to be ignored. read more

I think Bev Mo is fantastic... and I actually have a family wine business. I iike the Wilfred Wong reviews... I guess he is one of only 170 master sommeliers in the world and Bev Mo has him on staff. His ratings match my pallet well. There are a bunch of wines that are 90+ points and under $15... woo hoo! I also like that they have a few exclusives where they apparently bought out the entire production. Also incredibly convenient with the parking in the back and very nice staff. Haven't tested their knowledge but I just scour the store based on price and rating... and the signage is pretty informative. read more

BevoMo in general is like sending a kid into a candy store, only for alcoholic beverages. This location is pretty tiny in comparison to most others I've shopped at, but the selection isn't bad. The staff are knowledgeable and friendly. I recommend stopping in even if just to peruse the wines on sale. If you are in the mood for a stroll, this Willow Glen store is one of many in the quaint neighborhood. Parking is located in the back of the store. I was thrilled that my search for an IPL didn't leave me empty handed. I left with a sixer of Speakeasy. When in search of specific brew, ask for help. read more

One tequila two tequila three tequila FLOOR. If only I could write this review upside now... This Willow Glen location is a flip of a coin when it comes to the other Bevmos in this area. How, you ask? Here's the down low. Pros: - Willow Glen pretty much speaks for itself. Cute neighborhood. - Lots of shopping to the left, right, and across the street. - Some items that are consistently found at all local Bevmos. - Shorter, quicker lines. - Staff are busy, but happy to help. - Parking lot in the back if you're having trouble finding parking on the street. - Smaller means less rummaging. Cons: - Their stock is less than other stores (because it's smaller), so they haven't had my Rumpleminze a couple times I've stopped by. - Shorter hours. - Parking *might* suck. I prefer the Blossom Hill or Tomas Expressway shops to this one. But it DOES have a quaint atmosphere. Hint: they have all the ingredients for making slutty redheads (jaeger, cran juice, and peach schnapps). Bottoms up! read more

This was my first time at a BevMo! I've heard great things about this chain and had to see for myself the large selection of beverages. This particular location wasn't as big as ones I had seen in photos previously and my friend said they didn't have quite as wide a selection as other BevMo!s, but I was impressed regardless and they did the job when it came to picking up some liquor and beer. read more

I walked in and stood in awe as I looked at beer, booze, and wine stacked floor to ceiling. It doesnt get much better than this. The selection was fantastic and the service was good at this location, too. If you enjoy drinking or party planning, this place is for you. read more

The best idea since the corner liquor store. I come here for one thing usually.. and that's a fifth of you guessed it Henn. It's only $23.99 for bevmo card carrying mofo's like me. How can you not love that my fellow cognac sippers? Try that same bottle at safeway and you'll pay through the nose at the tune of $33 scraps. If you like wine, they have the 5cent second bottle deal. If you like ICE.. they got u. read more

not nice ppl. bad service, possibly racially motivated, never received my pick up order, they actually blew me off after waiting for a good time waiting, helped everyone else walked away from me wouldn't help me with my order even though i was there before all of other customers. they have not reversed charges to my cc. sigh, just another sign they are cheats, racists, probably trump lovers. bad , bad ppl, manager did nothing to rectify, doesn't care read more

Nice neighborhood liquor store with a decent selection for being smaller than most bevmos. The aisles are a little tight but manageable. The staff is friendly and helpful. There is a parking lot behind the store, which I use if I'm getting a lot of stuff. They also have a good selection of non alcoholic mixers, including Mexican coke (usually near the check out) read more

Never been to a BevMo outside of the city, but this one was a bit smaller than most I've been to, but very organized. There's a front and back door which is great for those who park in the lot or on streets. The service was friendly and super helpful when I asked for champagne suggestions. Don't mind coming back here to purchase alcohol in the future :) read more

Small but cozy.. I think the guy who was working here thought me and my friend were crazy because we had just come from Tlaquepaque and downed a few Chevalas! We actually stopped by here because we saw they had a wine tasting going on. We had 5 minutes left! Unfortunately for us, they were not having it on this particular day because the area they hold it in was blocked with boxes of alcohol.. Boo! We asked about the tasting and the guy said it is only a quarter! I have to come back for this one.. Besides 25 cents tastings, BevMo also carries a huge variety of wines, beers, liquors, mixers, snacks and water. They have Voss Water! Not only that, but they also do kegs for parties.. Hit up BevMo for all your alcoholic needs! read more

Nice location in Willow Glen,but compared too the other locations this one is a tad smaller. Good prices and good customer service and since this is the closest one to me,I will be back! read more

Oh BevMo how I love thee. You provide me with large amount of liquid libations all at a very reasonable price. Your club card lightens the burden that my wallet must carry to support my indulgences in the liquid love. I will always hold a special place in my heart for you. And for any of you out there like me...BevMo is the place to be. read more

Top Five Things I Love About Willow Glen: 5. I get to utilize my parallel parking skills here. 4. Farmer's market, hooo ! 3. Jessie K. 2. Peet's Coffee & Tea 1. BEVMO. I have been busting my ass looking for Celebrator freakin' Dopplebock for two weeks. I have been to the Mountain View, Sunnyvale, Camden, and brand new Blossom Hill Bevmos; I have tried Bevmo.com; I went to the Los Altos and Cupertino Whole Foods, which are renowned for their beer selection; I even called City Beer in San Francisco (who gave me a name of a shady-sounding liquor store in Berkeley, and that's when I was about to throw in the towel). Then today on a whim, I decided to look up the numbers for all the other South Bay and Peninsula Bevmo's on Yelp and start calling around. The first one I tried was the Willow Glen location, which-silly me !-I totally forgot existed. The phone was answered promptly, and I barely had to explain myself when I asked for Celebrator Dopplebock, from Ayinger (this was quite a relief after one of the guys at Whole Foods had looked it up in their inventory under "Celebrater Double pock"...wtf!). I was OVERJOYED when the salesclerk on the phone informed me that they had thirteen precious little bottles, so I raced over and on the way through the door, forgot to grab a handbasket. Another clerk was stocking the tequila (which faces the beer: this place is quite small) and handed me the box he had just emptied so that I could carry my loot (seriously, they do customer service right at this place). I proceeded to tell him about my attempt to find this beer, and how excited I was that they had it. He smiled at me like, Okay Beer Lady, get a real hobby. But I do have other hobbies. I just can't share them here. Anyway, I bought six bottles and the total was a little over $18. I know that seems kind of expensive, especially for only six 12-ounce bottles. But it's a 6.7% beer so in alcoholic value, it's more like I bought eight Fat Tires, ten Guinness Drafts, or four Chimay Bleues. Justifying my purchase means I'm an addict, doesn't it? Hmm... See you guys in rehab ! read more

well I am giving this 4 star power cause the place is small. had trouble finding it. also had to park on the street cause i missed the driveway to the parking lot in the back of the store. You can miss it cause again it's a small inlet. The only reason I went hear is that I've been trying to find the elusive Red Horse Beer ! ! Fellow yelpers suggested I try Bev mo and this is the only place that had them in stock. The staff that was working there was really great I had to call ahead and ask for directions to the place cause my GPS couldn't find the address maybe again cause the place was small I have no clue as to why it couldn't find the address. Alright finally find the place. Walk in and walked around and I couldn't find Red Horse. So I was saying to myself noo they don't have it I was starting to feel sad me having to come all this way and they don't have it in stock after all. I ended up asking the gal at the register and she was kind enough to show me where it was. What great service she even remember me as the person calling for directions. So i was a very happy camper along with my son who also bought a case of the Japanese soda Rumna?? That is my review of Bev mo in Willow Glen area. What great length i had to go to get that Red Horse. read more

There's parking in the back behind Aqui's and the Lincoln street exit closes after 7pm, fyi. In search for something foreign, I walked in, before calling to check stock of course. Since being in Tanzania, I needed to suprise a fellow traveler with something nostalgic. Bev Mo came to my need with single bottles of Tusker, cold or not. They didn't have the much desired Konyagi, but I was still able to please. read more

One fine Saturday afternoon about three weeks ago, we stumbled into the new Bevmo on Lincoln Ave. I was wondering if they carried the elusive Shaker Rose Vodka I have been looking for. As I expected, they don't carry it. However, the narrow aisles of this lovely lure of libations does carry quite a bit for such a mini location. They even had twenty five cent wine tasting the day we swung by! Friendly Bevmovian Fred poured generously from five (or was it six?) unheard of labels and we tasted with assorted cheese and chocolate accompaniments which was swell on the palate. We unexpectedly opted for a bottle of chardonnay and sloshed the rest of the grape juice down the spittoon as it wasn't worth a mid day hang. Nice upside sale, Fred! read more

i walked into this place with my bf, and his cousin and my boyfriend and me grabbed what we got in line to pay and they guy rang up all our items and THEN asked for ID so my bf showed him his ID because i had left mine at home, then he asked for my bf;s cousin's ID....and we he didn't have one cause he was underage but he was just accompanying us so he denied us service because he said that we touched the bottles with no ID so he couldn't sell it to my boyfriend.....can you say UNFAIR? these people are ridiculous so does that mean all the people with kids that walk in there are denied service also because their kids play with the different bottles?! read more

Very upset with my recent experience walking into this Bevmo. I was carded as soon as I walked in, there was other customers younger than I that did not get carded. While looking for a wine to gift for someone one of the employees would just stare at me with my girlfriend. The other employee stocking was just cursing the whole time didn't even ask us if we needed help. I've been to many bevmos and this is the worse experience. I went to a local liquor store and had a better experience. read more

Nice location, but parking can be a pain in the ass during certain hours. I really like the service that I get whenever I come in here, they are always super attentive. Nice selection, good prices, and it's never busy when I come. Just wish they were open later. read more

Went in to purchase a bunch of holiday gifts for my staff and got followed around like a thief? When I pulled out a roll and my Bev Mo card they finally smiled at me. read more

I enjoy going to this Bevmo. It's close to my house, the staff are nice and they usually have exactly what I'm looking for. Today, they lost my business. Here is why... I was in line about to pay for my groceries and some stupid lady walked in with her DOG! I feel bad to leave a bad review but i will not consume products that a stupid dog could have licked. 3 staff members watched her walk in and did not say a word. I hope they do something about this because I'm not going back to that store until I see a sign saying "No dogs allowed." read more

A smaller store than most of the other Bev-Mo's around, but it still suits all of my needs. Actually, my man and I spend so much money in this store that the clerk always asks, "You guys having a party?" And we look at each other and say, "Sure, something like that." No, we're not having a party, we just really, really like beer. And we're stocking up in case a massive earthquake hits before our next Bev-Mo run. read more

This company has cut-rate service to match cut rate prices. Inventory is inaccurate as they show product in stock & after driving there only to be told stock was transferred to another bev mo. What's the point of showing in stock or out if stock is mobile at a moments notice read more

Hey Bev Mo brought some class to Lincoln Ave. A liquor store without smokes, condoms, lottery tickets, and Jugs Magazine. Get one of their frequent drinkers cards and save $$$$ on your purchases. They also have easy parking in the rear of the store. read more

This location is pretty small so unless you're in the area and want to grab something quickly, I would go to the Santa Clara one instead as they have a bigger selection of wines in all price ranges. Plus since the aisles are small here, it's hard to browse around especially when you have to make room for others to walk by. read more

Love this place! Bevmo has all my alcohol needs at its best value.
