Not sure why I never reviewed this place and I've been here several times since moving to this town…read morefive years ago. What's great about this place? Is that during the winter? They are obviously open and have seating inside and then during summer they actually open a part of their exterior wall like a garage door and there's also barstool type seating there as well so you can enjoy the great weather and the sun while still drinking whatever you purchased from them. They have an incredible selection in the store and every single time I walk in here whoever is working is super friendly and super helpful. I will say when you walk in it's not really straightforward because you can buy things and take it home buy things and drink it there or they even have beers on tap as well at the big counter. Every time I come in here, there's always people as well no matter what the weather is and it's great to see.

Prices are not the cheapest, but in line with what you'd expect to pay in downtown Arlington Heights. Service is friendly, and fairly quick even when they get a rush of visitors during beautiful summer afternoons. For those looking for something different like trivia or board games, they do have special nights here and Meetup Groups that hold special events here from time to time.

Greetings! I am a…read morewriting fond farewell to the local legend that was Vintages Fine Wine. Jeanne and Robert's gem of a store was a fixture in downtown Arlington Heights for twenty-three years. Fantastic wines at great price points was the main attraction and the housewares selections were equally top notch. Beyond the fantastic products were the amazing cast of characters that crossed the threshold. Customers, vendors, and employees alike congregated within and created quite the social amalgamation. I count myself lucky to be both a customer and a former employee. The eight years I worked there flew by and I'll cherish the conversations, the laughs, and the great moments of life that we shared along the way. What a great run it had...we were all very lucky to have had the connection to such a local treasure. Cheers! tk

Next time I'm in the neighborhood I will definitely stop by again!

This liquor store is brand spic & span new so it's insanely neat, insanely clean and the workers are so nice! They were so eager to help me and show me some good deals. They carry a lot of good beers including Lagunitas, Dragon's Milk, Two Brothers, etc. plus all the watery swill you could want. I don't know much about hard liquors but they seemed to have a good selection of both that and wines. Mix & Match 6 packs for $10.99 and I put a couple of Lagunitas Sucks in my sixer. Seeing as they just opened, they are taking recommendations for things they should order. I asked them to get some 5 Rabbit in! So hopefully they will. It's the closest and most convenient liquor store to me now and with such friendly people, I'm sure I'll be there more than I should.

Jordan basically knows everything about alcohol and is your go-to guy no matter what you're looking for. Matt's the same deal over in the beer section, always happy to help you figure out what you need. Neither of them rushes you -- they take their time, treat you like family, and honestly make every visit kind of fun. This has turned into my only Binny's, and pretty much my only liquor store period at this point. Jordan and Matt are the reason, and they deserve the recognition!

I visited for their "Discover Spring Arrivals" wine event and was thoroughly impressed. They offered almost 50 wines ranging from $10 to $125! They had a great variety of bubbles, rosés, whites, and light reds. They had a complimentary charcuterie board and everyone got 10% off a full price purchase. The event was only $10 and I left having found some new, tasty, go-to's! Highly recommend visiting this location if you are a wine drinker! Ask for Tim or CW as they are the best!!
