Lots of times i have been going to a party or just around to a friends house and i have browsed around here to see if there is anything i havent drank yet so that i can bring it along with me! bit of variety and all that! as the name suggests they doo all types of drink including wines and fromtimeto time they have had stands where you can taste different winse that they have in the shop! a great idea i thought! its a pity that this off licence is out of the way in an industrial estate, a lot of my drink buying is disorganised and involves buyingon the go so i never get to this off licence unlessi plan it

Its lovely to see a shop that takes its business seriously... don't they all I hear you cry? Well,…read moreyeah, probably but maybe its just that O'Briens can afford to have a place like this - a supermarket - that just sells alcohol. My kinda shop. There are 3 wine tasting stations, each with about 12 bottles set up on it, they are all cool and futuristic looking but their purpose is simple, to let the wine lover try before you buy, to have access to such a large selection is wonderful and means you always leave happy - not because you have sampled too much but because you got something you know you are going to enjoy. O'Briens have also bought into the current price war with the supermarkets, this leads to some spectacular deals. My current fav is a bottle of black bush for 19.99, cheaper than a bottle of white bush!!!!

Let's get some wine, real wine, not from Tescos wine. Let's go to Oddbins! I have to say that the most shocking thing I found about Oddbins was that I could actually afford anything other than Dorritos. They really do have a full spectrum price range, but they were a bit snooty when I asked the difference between the dark stuff and the paler bottles. Snobs, it was a perfectly reasonable question.

Great wine selection and well sourced so you are getting excellent value but be prepared to spend that bit more. Parking is best at the super valu / blackrock shopping center car park. Oh they also have a small cheese selection from Sheridans.

Kelly's has served me as my local off-licence for years, and I love this place. The staff are…read morefantastic, the selection is very good, and they offer some great deals. The guys generally pick a selection of wines to put on special in the centre of the floor, generally around the €10 mark, and they change frequently: for example, during the summer, you're likely to find some fruity barbecue wines on offer. Advice is available if, like me, you don't know much about your wines, and they're more than happy to steer you towards value-for-money rather than try to upsell. As a beer man myself, Kelly's is miles better than the other local off-licence. They stock all the usual suspects in an open fridge, but they also have an excellent selection of quality imports such as Flensburger, Baltika, Spaten, etc. They stock some good Irish brews as well, and regularly have five for €10 on some of the good European beers. Better selection, better staff, and good deals. What more could you want? While you could probably find better bargains on mass-produced plonk in Tesco's or similar, these guys have a great selection and know their stuff. As a small local business, they do an outstanding job serving their customers, too. And if you need it, they can sort out your party needs with glass hire, too.

There's a good off licence too (popular with the university students because of the competitive prices). They also stock some good craft beers and some nice wines. The owner, Mr Yang can't do enough for you and the girls who work behind the deli are very helpful and always smiling. It is my local shop and I'm so glad because it's a great one! Note: their chocolate twist pastries are buttery heaven!

It's not a fly by night flashy frontage, it's got character and substance. So exterior sorted, the interior carries on that tradition.

Care to sample Double Chocolate Stout, Banana Bread Beer or Whiskey Ale? If you ever feel like experiencing how diverse beer can be, go to Deveney's in Dundrum, grab a selection of beers (e.g. German Schlenkerla Rauchbier, which decidedly tastes of liquid smoked bacon or the excellent Belgian Trappist Beer Chimay Bleue) and invite friends over for a tasting. They shall not be disappointed. For sheer bang for the buck (e.g. for parties) I would probably stock up at the regular supermarkets who can afford to buy large quantities and pass on the discounts, but for quality and new taste experiences, Deveney's is certainly my first pick. Plus: Very good selection of beers and wines, in walking distance from the Shopping Center on Dundrum main street, friendly service, good value promotions. Minus: As with any other off-licence, some of the better or more exotic drinks can be a bit on the pricey side.

Maybe I have lived a sheltered life for too long but I was positively giddy to be in a store this big dedicated to booze. Amazing selection, great promotions and they do gift cards and I can say liquor in a safe place.
