I ordered a nice bottle of Cognac today here for my father to be delivered on June 19th…read more Unfortunately the online system there does not work well. So the store didn't see the Father's Day request and the delivery date which was two weeks later. 30 minutes after my order my father received the present. I was shocked. If this was my daily grocery shopping delivery it would have been amazing - what great quick service. This is unacceptable and ruined a nice Father's Day gift. However, they made Father's Day 2020 so special and memorable because I usually don't remember any other Father's Day gifts that I give every year. Now I can laugh about what happened. My father texted me with a picture that he is enjoying the cognac right now two weeks early to celebrate Father's Day. Cheers.

As a party planner for the past six years...I have learned that ice delivery is one of the most undervalued services in the market. My usual guy was not available so I took a gamble and called Talbert's Ice & Beverage. They picked up the phone on the first try, carefully explained my options and took down the necessary information they needed to make the delivery. The day of the event they called me to confirm my order and came on time. Ice was delivered, drinks were cooled and everyone had a great time! Pricing was very affordable even with the delivery cost AND they take credit cards. Professionalism all around. I would definitely use them again!

My wife and I go to Rodman's as often as we can. We don't even live in Washington, D.C. When we…read morevisit (I have to check on my elderly father, who is on his own), this is where we shop. It's a fascinating place, as if Trader Joe's and a mom-and-pop vintage grocery store merged. I imagine their buyer prowls Europe for obscure items and random stuff. The prices are excellent. I would not say it is the equivalent of a supermarket where you can get everything you need for the refrigerator and pantry. It's more of a place to discover treats. They also sell products that are not food and drink, and that also is weird, not systematic. We do regard it as the best place for wine. My wife also wondered if they had a pharmacy. We had been running around town, stopping at two places that are part of national chains. One was too busy and said come back tomorrow, another said they no longer carried the prescription. It was for our dog. Well, they stocked it -- they indicated they only have dog drugs if they also are human drugs (and I am always surprised how much overlap there is), and this specific pill fell in that category. So we were all set. My wife shopped for our other needs, such as a bottle of Pinot Noir to bring to a Christmas supper. Although I am not someone who shops to shop, if I were forced to browse the aisles here I would not complain, because there are always surprises.

Extremely into craft beer and I came across some good reviews for this spot. Unfortunately all the…read morereviews I read weren't accurate. I rolled in on a Friday night. This place is your typical corner store with average selection at best. One of the clerks decided to act like he was stocking the beer to make sure I wasn't stealing anything. I get it. I have a mask on and there's a decent amount of shady characters hanging around the store so I wasn't offended. To break the ice with him I asked them if they carry Barleywine. He told me that he never heard of that before. That statement really explains why this review was needed because this is not a place you need to seek out for any thing craft beer related. The manager was friendly as I checked out so it's all good. I drove 20 minutes from where I was staying based on the positive reviews so that's not their fault of the store but don't make the same mistake that I did seeking out this place for seductive selections.

Its not a grab and go beer mart with refrigerated beer displays, or a microbrew specialty store that carries craft beers, or a fine wine cellar, or a liquor superstore with amazing variety and/or super low prices. It's a county outlet that sells alcohol at fair prices. They have a variety of popular products and at times they have sales where you can get pretty good deals. I buy beer and wine at a superstore in Virginia. I monitor several stores in Maryland and DC for specials on spirits. MoCo Liquors has a website you can use to identify sale items and to compare prices with other stores.

But even so, this liquor…read morestore is a decent size and carries a good selection of wines and hard liquor: as an example, I'm always surprised (pleasantly so) that they have a fairly broad selection of Scotch and don't limit choices to just the expected Macallan and Glenfiddich offerings. Layout is quite nice. Wines are organized into different sections that are relatively well labeled, and scores from various wine magazines and sommeliers are often posted to help you assess and compare. Staff are always very pleasant and happy to answer questions.

However, today I stopped by the store 25 minutes after posted opening hour, and the door was still locked with lights off, and no explanation anywhere. If the hours have changed, it's management's responsibility to post the update online and at the storefront--otherwise, at least one employee is obligated to open on time. The lack of both shows a total disregard for the value of customers' time, and not everyone is walking distance. Those of us fortunate enough to live in Bethesda have lots of choices, and I'll be buying wine elsewhere from now on.
