Now look. Giant Liquor store is the closest liquor store to my house, so sure, you might think that's why I go. But the thing is, there are about a dozen liquor stores in a less-than-ten-minute walk away, so if this was anything less than the best, I could take my business elsewhere easily. The market for liquor in the Park View area is free market competition at its best.
This place is a gem. The owners/managers? The friendliest people you'll meet--and they have to deal with a lot. The prices are fantastic. A bunch of times I've gone in there only planning to buy one particular thing, but something is on such a great sale that I can't resist buying it. I bought Johnnie Walker Blue there because it was 30% off. WHO DOES THAT? And around Christmas one year they gave me a bunch of empty boxes for wrapping fake presents to go under my tree. How nice is that? I usually go with a friend and whenever I'd go alone they ask where my friend is. Not many proprietors make the effort to get to know their clientele like that these days.
Five stars for being a treasure in the Park View business community. Oh and for cheap liquor, a wide selection, and nice people. read more
