College towns have liquor stores of course. DeKalb is no exception. It has a pretty good one. Good…read moreselection for around here. The prices aren't the best but aren't bad though. A lot of liquors to choose from. It has most of the basic stuff. There's everything from vodka in plastic bottles, to wines. It's about $12 for the cheapest bottles of hard liquor. There's the national brand stuff as well as some local stuff. Fast and easy. They get you in and out. Get some ice cold beer. It has quite a variety, if you aren't feeling like having liquor. There's also mixers like pop, and snacks.

I found this store by accident, but being in a University town, I…read morethought they may have a certain Brandy that I can't find near me anymore. So, I asked the clerk, and they did, indeed, have it in stock. Plus, the price wasn't outrageous, it was comparable to what others have charged. Of course, I bought one on the spot. I was so happy.

The new owners don't play music in the store, and the employees aren't as friendly. Many items are mislabeled, and you have to make sure they ring you up with the right price. Maybe this is just because they are new at owning a business. Some things are a bit overpriced. On a positive note, it's in a good location.

As a former resident of DeKalb for nearly a decade, American Liquors was ALWAYS my one-stop shop…read morefor anything liquor related. They have an excellent selection of beer & wines (cold & shelved...) Of course, they carry every bottle of liquor you could imagine under the sun, too. This place is family-owned, not a chain, & the best part: the employees are awesome & always get to know the regulars. Whenever I visit DeKalb I make sure that I pick up my alcoholic necessities at American. Prices are competitive compared to other local DeKalb shops & I am a BIG FAN of supporting family-owned local businesses like American Liquors. If you can drink it... you'll find it at American.

It's Thirsty Thursday and what better place to review than Lundeen's Liquors?! One of my favorite…read moreliquor stores and bottle shops in the area. Lundeen's has a huge selection of craft beer, wine and liquor. There hasn't been a time where I walk in this place and don't see anything new. This is one of my go-to places for craft beer. They have a good selection and the staff is pretty knowledgeable about all the different breweries. If there is something you want and they don't have they'll be happy to look up in their inventory to see if it's available. They'll also speak with reps from different distributors to check on specialty beer if you need something specific. If you love beer fests, Lundeen's ) has a kick ass Oktoberfest at the end of the year. A bunch of good breweries come by, you go in, listen to polka, eat some sausage and drink good beer. Hit up Lundeen's for all your boozey needs. Only complaint is sometimes the prices are inconsistent. Sometimes you can find the same beer down the street at Hyvee for a few bucks less, sometimes a few bucks more. Not sure why? Btw, if you're a 3 Floyds fan...they deliver on Wednesdays.

Where else can you buy a 30 of anything for less than $13? Of course when beer is this cheap it's maybe a sign you shouldn't be buying it, but I digress. Lundeen's is my go-to liquor store in DeKalb. It's not as massive as someplace like Binny's, but they still have a wide enough selection to satisfy most consumers. From the cheap college booze that you'll never drink after your undergrad years are over, to something nice enough to bring to a Christmas party, Lundeen's has something for every taste and budget. They also have some pretty good deals and promotions most of the time. Staff is never super friendly, but I feel like that's been my experience with liquor stores in most college towns.

This place is such a downgrade compared to the Lundeens in Sycamore. The entire staff is mainly college kids who do not care about their customers or the beer they are selling unless it's PBR or Corona. My boyfriend said he went there two years ago and the customer service was still as bad. He asked something about a product they had and gave off an annoyed look to him. Today we went to go make a stop an hour before the website says they closed and the Open sign was already off, all the employees were gone. It wasn't even holiday hours? What gives them the freedom to close one whole hour earlier. I can see maybe 15 minutes before official closing time, but this is ridiculous. Go to Lundeens in Sycamore, its not that far away, take Dresser to Bethany to Sycamore Rd. The staff is so much nicer. They will remember your name and continue the conversation each time you visit. They will recommend new beers to you and are so helpful to find something for you. If they don't have something in stock, they'll find you another Lundeens that does have it in store.
