Visiting from out of town, I happened upon the store because I needed to make change for the bus…read more When I entered the store there was a cashier, a man behind a desk area and a woman standing by the front door who asked if I needed help. I told her that all I really needed was to make change. She said "we don't have that" rather dismissively. I was floored. I looked around at this massive store, the cash register's, the staff the millions worth of inventory and I said "really, with all this? And she said " really, with all this". I left the store with no change. The bus didn't make change. The driver let me on for free. There is a total wine in the town where I live, but I don't think I'll be going back there.

This shop is under new ownership, who is by and large absent…read more I was shocked by how unwelcoming the new management is. This is a neighborhood wine shop. My husband really liked chatting with the last owner, who knew a lot about wine. He had not been since the new owner took over. I convinced him to go for a tasting, and I'm so sorry I dragged him in there on his weekend time. We were the only people tasting at the bar. Despite this the managers showed zero interest in us. It was very awkward. They asked no questions, not even how long we'd been going there. Management actively avoided us. No one wanted to talk beyond shelling out basic wine info on what they were trying to sell at the tasting. When we stepped away from the counter to look around after the tasting, they suddenly gathered with one another behind the counter to talk among themselves, leaving me somewhat confused and left to peruse the shelves alone (we were the only ones there looking at wine too) instead of taking any opportunity to approach us, get to know us, and retain local clients and entice us to want come in more often. All 4 seats were empty at the counter around them. It was a weekend night. Had I felt more hospitality, we might have bought a nice bottle of wine and sat down to talk. Instead we left. My husband just shrugged (he likes Wine Authorities anyhow) but I actually felt somewhat shocked, in all honesty. It's hard to believe they're trying to run a hospitality business. That experience was anything but fun. In fact it was stressful and a disappointing waste of time. If they want to justify their higher prices over other stores, or encourage people to drink on premises, they need much better management. Preferably people who like people. We had every intention of supporting this local business, but won't be returning anytime soon.

Nice local bar with lots of beer options! The bartender was very kind and patient as I mulled…read morethrough all the options, and she allowed me to taste test different drinks when I couldn't make a decision. The menu was a little difficult to read at first, but once you understand that colors represent different types of beers, that helps narrow a lot of options down. There were also plenty of snacks available for purchase, but some customers brought over pizza next door for the ultimate dinner combo! There was plenty of outdoor seating, but limited indoor seating so be sure to check the weather prior if you're staying a while. It seems like they have a lot of regulars that come by on weekdays for a pick-me-up. Dogs and kids were welcome, and there was some parking available in the lot behind the building.

This is the literal best taproom in NC!!! The service, ambience, and selection are unmatched. The…read morebeers rotate so there is always something new to try. The bartenders are amazing at recommending good beers and always give out samples to see which one you want! Trivia Thursdays are so much fun and you can always grab a pizza next-door to make it a fun evening. Love this place!

I'm kind of surprised that ABC stores are on Yelp, but okay. This location is a former BB&T bank…read morelocation and has good parking around the building. The selection is the same regardless of which Durham ABC store you shop, but this location is clean and uncluttered. They've adapted to COVID-19 with plexiglass and contactless payment. I like the fact that the stores also have a North Carolina section. The reason for my three stars rather than four is because I think North Carolina as a whole should abandon ABC stores and let the free market take over with independent stores that are competitive and can offer a wider selection.

Unbelievably rude. Asked if they carry wine, she asked what kind. Said "like a rosé or something…read moresparkling but not too dry" and she goes "no. This is a liquor store, if you want wine go to a wine store. And who drinks rosé anyway?" Why would you ask what kind of you know you don't sell wine? I'm new to the area and obviously did not know this was exclusively a liquor store. And to then shame a customer for their taste (it wasn't even for me) is extremely tasteless. Luckily, I now know what store to avoid when I am looking for liquor.

I'm so glad that I checked out the wine cellar! Love that they are family owned and operated and…read morehave been for about 20 years! Such an amazing selection and mix of whites, reds, and sparkling. Patrick provided me a sample of an amazing Pinot grigio that was crisp, light, and had an amazing hint of honey suckle and pineapple. Wow! I immediately decided that I would take this home along with a sauvingion blanc that he also recommend! For two bottles, it only cost me $26! Most of their wines are under $20! Such a great deal! They have free wine tasting on Fridays at 5 pm, so in a couple of weeks, I may have to check it out!
