I'm an absolute fan of this place. When I first started visiting Huntsville, I appreciated Liquor…read moreExpress for it's location and inventory. Over time, I became annoyed by their 'service' and only later did I realize they were sister businesses. I've been visiting Open Bottle for about 5 years now. Even though it's a hike from the city proper, I appreciate the vibes and hospitality on the bar side quite a bit. I don't find myself shopping in the retail side that much just due to their location. I've enjoyed their patio with our pup on so many different occasions as well as partaking in their beer and spirits options, which are very plentiful.

I've never had anything less than stellar service at this Windmill location! The staff are nice and…read morehelpful! For a while they were running a special where you bought a reusable wine bottle carrier (machine washable and held 6 wine bottles or other bottles) for $5.00, and you got a discount (maybe 20 percent off) on future wine purchases. I don't know if they still have that offer. The store itself is older and it's not the easiest to get in and out of the parking lot. The parking lot itself is rutted. It's next door to a Pep Boys where I have bought tires in the past, and if you use their side street, Ivory Place you can avoid the traffic light at Madison Blvd./Hwy. 20 and Sullivan and you will end up on Madison Blvd.,/Hwy. 20 east bound.

Good selection, good price, good people and GREAT service. Always a friendly word and a smile.read more

I went into the Spirits Store because I wanted to buy four cases of wine for my party. It literally…read moretook me 15 minutes to get one of the employees to come over and assist me. Many of their bottles weren't labeled, so I had to ask the young girl who came to help me about the their prices. Less than 3 minutes into me asking what cost what, she walks off and starts helping another customer. I waited for a few minutes thinking she was going to come back, but she just went on about her business and left me hanging. So after standing there for another 10 minutes, I realized she or any other employee weren't coming back to further assist me, so I left those cases and walked out. I'm definitely not supporting a business that will just ignore their customers like that.

Today I visited this store, and a small plastic bottle fell of the shelf and the lid cracked when I…read morewas picking out my selection. I thought I was doing the right thing by taking it to the counter. Boy was I wrong! I should have just put it back on the shelf and gone about my business, because the clerk BREE insisted I had to pay for it. She was unpleasant, argumentative and doesn't understand customer service. I asked for the manager. He's not there and not available. I asked for his phone number and she couldn't produce. It's a shame, because this is nice, little small business being blackened by a simple minded clerk. Again, I should have just put it back on the shelf and gone about my business. Sad I won't be able to frequent this small Huntsville business in the future. UPDATE: i am updating my score. I sent a note to the owner via the store web page. He responded in less than 24 hours and agreed to address the issue and offered compensation (although not necessary). Plan on going here again based on the excellent response by the owner!!!

I've discovered Sazeracs. The rye wasn't hard to find but the absinthe eluded me. I knew that I'd…read moremost likely find it at the ABC store. I was immediately greeted and asked if I needed help. When I said what I was looking for, I was taken straight the absinthe. I don't think i would have found it on my own. This is a pretty small store that doesn't seem to have the largest selection. The absinthe was only available in one size - it will probably last me the rest of my life. This sounds terrible, but I rarely leave the ABC with just what I went in for. I found a few other things to try. Even though the prices were clearly marked on the shelved, I still had sticker shock - the Alabama sin tax annoys the heck out of me. Check out was pleasant - we had a little chat about various drinks and then I was on my way. I still haven't made my Sazerac.
