He showed me 3 different options of product .... I was out of there very quickly Super nice staff..... I noticed lots of great wine choices and their beef jerky is great. read more

Specialty bourbon available! My husband wanted a specific kind of bourbon and they had it in stock at a good deal.

One of the best whiskey selections I've seen in South OC. Owner was great and helped me find some bottles I didn't expect I would like so much. Store is well stocked, clean, and organized. Great visit. read more

My neighbor has been telling me about this place for awhile. He raves about their wide selection of good quality whiskey and an amazing selection of craft beers. I'm not much of a whiskey or beer drinker but decided to see what their other offerings were like. This store is located in a nondescript strip mall. It doesn't look like much from the outside but once you step inside you immediately realize this is a liquor store that is stocked by folks that know their booze! I'm a wine person and was impressed with the variety of wines they had to offer. The offerings covered all price ranges and seemed to represent the better quality labels and some smaller independent wineries too. I grabbed a bottle of imported Italian chianti and a cabernet sauvignon from a small Paso Robles vineyard. My wife had asked me to get a bottle of amaretto for an upcoming party and, not finding it on the store shelves, was informed they had bottles behind the counter. The guys working here were very helpful and friendly, prices were reasonable, and the selection was fantastic. Definitely my new go-to store for wine and other alcoholic pleasures. read more

Dimension Liquor - the outside of a liquor store - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Lake Forest, California

See all

The owner speaks on the phone to someone every AM in Arabic and waits a million minutes talking while you're standing waiting to pay, when he clearly saw you come in. It just sounds like he's talking shjt while you're waiting. If you want to talk shit about people buying alcohol at 9am, don't be open so early and don't be on the early shift. It is a nice store, but I avoid it unless I am forced to go there. Always gives an air of "you're a piece of shit, I'm on the phone, you can wait." Nah homie, my money is better spent elsewhere. read more

I love this liquor store. The owners are all so helpful and friendly. I love the selection. I enjoy stouts and they always have plenty on hand. During my last visit I noticed they had these really cool gift bags made up. They were "cocktail in a bag". Small liquor, mixer, and everything you need for a cocktail. Great idea, especially for a bachelorette/bachelore part. Or a 21st birthday party gift bags read more

Dimension Liquor is run by a father and son team and both of them are very nice and helpful. Their beer selection rivals the big chain liquor stores and the wine selection is good too. There's a wide variety of spirits, good tequila selection and some more unique items. The bourbon selection is good and you can find some great deals. The only downside is the secondary pricing of rarer bourbons like Blanton's (2x MSRP), Weller 107 (10x MSRP) and Weller 12 (7x MSRP) read more

What was once a fav stop became an overpriced unpersonable experience. Prices marked mean nothing, and if you aren't paying attention they will happily overcharge you. Where'd Joe go? read more

My favorite liquor store...awesome selection of Beers, spirits, everything...anything they've recommended has been great...I added a picture of 3 I bought recently...good stuff...nice to have this liquor store not too far away read more

Dimension Liquor - 3 great choices that owner recommended...my Friday afternoon takes me here to buy a few for the weekend - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Lake Forest, California

I was recently at American Tire Depot, getting some new tires. Trying to kill time, I saw this liquor store in the same strip mall and decided to check it out. When I walked in, i gasped. I could not believe how much alcohol was in this store. Rows and rows of wine, tequila, whiskey, vodka, mini liquor bottles, specialty liquors, in addition to refrigerated cases encompassing the whole back of the store filled with lots of chilled wines, beer, and soft drinks. WOW! I decided to do some Christmas shopping as I noticed they had Michelada cups and I have a friend who loves these. I also purchased some mini liquor bottles of favorites of some of my friends to go in small holiday gift baskets. This place was also perfect as I was attending a Christmas party where I was instructed to BYOB. I purchased some BuzzBallz which were mixed drink balls filled with 20% alcohol. These were plastic balls fixed mixes of rum, tequila and vodka plus juices or fruit wines. Fun little party drinks, but man, they are strong. I had a lot of interesting comments from people who sampled them at the party I went to ;) Joe, the owner, is so fantastic. I felt welcome from the moment I walked in. He gave me a tour of his store and is a walking encyclopedia of alcoholic beverages. I had fun listening to his vast knowledge of his extensive inventory. I learned a lot about the different wines he carries and various vineyards he has visited. He introduced me to a lot of the fun, new liquors he carries, also. It is nice that Joe's son, Mike, is working alongside his father showing the same passion that his dad does about their store and customers. There are sale prices on items throughout the store. There are chips, snacks, lottery tickets and other standard liquor store items available at the store, also. At a time when there are big box liquor stores like BevMo and Total Wine and More in every city, it is nice to fine a local hidden gem like this with fantastic inventory, competitive prices and staff that really cares about their customers. read more

Best liquor store in OC! I was looking for a specific beer and once they found it they ordered a case for me and when it arrived they called me right away. I love this place! They do their best to keep their customers happy! Thank you!!!! read more

I called them today to see if they had Bourbon County and to my surprise, they actually had it in stock! I asked for the price and the guy over the phone said $14.99. That's understandable... I guess. Considering the MSRP is $10 a bottle.. it was already quite high to begin with. When I got there, I asked for a bottle and the guy said it was $19.99 per bottle. PER BOTTLE. That, my friends, is a 100% markup from MSRP. Look, I get it... it's a hard to find beer. But after seeing the price tag on it, I can understand why they still have plenty of stock of it. I was able to pick up 5 of them on black friday for no more than $12 a bottle. This was my first time here and shall be my last. read more

Dimension Liquor - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Lake Forest, California

This liquor store has the absolute best craft beer selection I've ever seen. It never disappoints. Sam is the nicest and has excellent customer service skills. He always lets us know what new beers are in and what ones to try. This place is the best and our go-to!!!!!! read more

I haven't purchased any alcohol here, ever. But the one thing that they do stock is Marley's Mellow Mood, a drink laced with melatonin that guarantees a good night's sleep for troubled sleepers such as myself. Drink responsibly. Nice owner. Every 3 years, the shop puts out a lottery winner, and they're due for a new one this year. read more

Surrounded by automotive repair shops, Dimension has a suprisingly good selection and pricing for a store of its size. I have no idea how they stay open selling nice liquor in an industrial area, but it might be because the workers seem very nice. My first time in customers enthusiastically told me that this was 'their spot'. It made me smile. read more

Dimension Liquor - Best booze in an autoshop stripmall award. - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Lake Forest, California

Would give this place -58247 stars if I could. I've given this place plenty of business. Never again. Either they are lazy with stocking, order too much, or just try to be cool with "behind the counter" stuff, they do stock items that aren't in plain sight so you have to ask. So I go in occasionally. I ask. I sometimes buy. I sometimes do not. They are usually friendly. Except the last time, when I asked JOE if he had anything new, he says "NO. Nothing new! You come in here, you ask, you never buy. So NO, nothing new for YOU". Bye JOE and your store, I will NEVER give you my hard earned money again. As much as I love to give my money to support local businesses, this place is horrible. Fair warning people. read more

Very good beer selection, however the prices are more expensive than any other place I go to get craft beer. If the prices go down just a tad this place would be all around perfect. I get some 4 packs of specific brands for 19.99 but over here they are around $24-$26. I left 5 starts cause sams the man and he provides the absolute best service. I pay the extra money so I could shoot the shit with Sam lol! read more

The BEST selection of beer with ADVICE and REVIEWS from MIKE! Great little family store, SUPER friendly, reasonable $$ GET YOUR BEER HERE! read more

Every time I find myself in Lake Forrest, I make it a point to go visit my favorite craft beer store - Dimension! 9 times /10 you'll find my friend Mike behind the register smiling back with new beers for you to buy. He does a great job of updating their current selections on facebook so check in regularly to get first dibs on their limited release rares. I'm personally a sour head and always manage to somehow pick up at least 3 bottles I'm there. My last pick up included a Tart of Darkness and Oude Tart from 'the Brewery' and a Sour Barley Wine that I'm really looking forward to trying. In addition to those, my haul included another 10 random craft bottles! I don't remember how much I spent, but I it was definitely well priced. I didn't pick up any hards, but they also have a great selection of everything you'd need for a party or your personal stash. A couple of months ago, I picked up a nice bottle of Yamazaki 12 year Japanese Whisky. Soooo good! If you're throwing a nice house party, definitely consider Dimension for kegs. I picked up a full keg of Blue Moon for a great price a year ago. The process was easy and hassle free. I would recommend this place to anyone who loves hard to find liquors and craft beers! read more

We used to live right by it, and still come back to say hello or get lotto tickets when we are in the area! The owner is so nice and remembers us everytime! The prices are reasonable and I miss having it so close for items like milk and eggs when you don't want to mess with running to a grocery store. read more

This place was a really good location to get craft beer. They just remodeled the inside and it's now even better. I travel a ways to go here in order to stock my refrigerator with their awesome selection of beers. Love this place. read more

Came here after reading the good reviews in search of a very hard to find bourbon. Even though no other store in the area had a bottle of this bourbon (one got some in but only sold them to top customers) these guys came up with a bottle for me. They charged a reasonable price especially considering this bourbon is known for selling for 5-10x the retail price (even some liquor stores are known for gouging customers on these bottles). I'm not much of a drinker but I do buy bottles as gifts throughout the year; I'll be making this my new go-to instead of my usual mass market stops. read more

This is a pretty standard California liquor store with the usual disorganized mess of booze and pricey grocery items. I give it a better than average rating for 1) an unpredictable but occasionally fantastic craft beer selection; 2) an active Facebook feed that announces the arrival of desirable craft beers; and 3) a very friendly father/son combo who run the place. I've talked mostly to Mike the son who does the buying and knows his beers. I stop by when I am in the area to poke around and generally end up with a bomber or two. read more

Been going here for years....never Yelped it until now.....owners are awesome and selection of beers and wine is good
