What a guy and what a place! Sam the new owner turned this place into an amazingly friendly neighborhood store, you'll always love stopping into! Tons of different beers and wines at amazing prices. He's given the store more than just a face lift, he's given it class. Sam loves what he does and he loves his customers and no matter what day or what time it is, he always has a genuine smile for you! Thanks Sam and cheers to you! read more

I moved up here about 2 1/2 years ago and was so upset that there was not a place to pick up some great craft beers. I actually called this place before it was purchased by Sam and asked if they had any craft beers. The response from the person I talked to was "what is craft beer". If you are looking some great craft beers with great customer service this is the place. read more

Great customer service & very convenient for late night trips for beer & wine. If a request for a certain type of beer or wine the owners go out of their way to do special orders. read more

Sam is the man! This store has done a 180 under the new ownership. Amazing selection and a welcoming neighborhood feel. Couldn't be happier with the new grape press read more

Came to Grape Press Liquor this afternoon to pick up a few bottles of BCBS 2015 that they just stocked up on. Follow them on Instagram for their latest updates! Stayed for a bit to chat with the owner Sam. He's awesome and is all about his customers! Top liquor store in the OC, it says so on paper. Will definitely be coming back for all my craft beer, whisky, and bourbon needs. read more

This by far the best place to go! Sam is so awesome and both he and Daniel make you feel welcome from the moment you walk in the door! I once mentioned that I wish they carried a beer I like and now it is always in stock.....by far the best customer service! A hidden gem in Anaheim Hills...check them out, you won't regret it and will walk away with a smile! read more

I don't like to give away great secrets, but Sam at Grapepress is the best and deserves to be known. He deserves all the credit I can give him...has the best stuff and treats his customers right. I feed my whiskey habit through Sam and buy bottles for out of state friends since he has inventory that few do. Best liquor store and owner out there. Cheers to Sam and Grapepress! read more

Sam is awesome! He always has a smile and is very professional. Very helpful and hard working. The staff here make me want to come back again and again. I will stop in sometimes just to say hi read more

The owner Sam is incredible - started visiting because a friend told me they have a good Craft Beer selection. So I went in and of course they stock my fav local beer Lagerithym from Bottle Logic! From my first visit Sam learned my name and started making suggestions to me ! Not only did he help me pick awesome beers I enjoyed but he even ordered things special for me. Beyond that Sam really went above and beyond and Even stocked an awesome barrel aged whiskey that I bought! Sam also stocks a wonderful selection of wines for when I'm drinking with friends. Overall Sam goes above and beyond in customer service and even will special order to delight clients and also makes really knowledgeable suggestions. Grapepress is truly a hidden gem and I tell all my neighbors and friends!!! read more

I cannot say enough good things about this place. I love the small town feeling you get going here, Sam and Daniel are so kind and always talk to you. They treat you like your family and not just a customer. They also have the best selection of beers and alcohol. If there's something you're looking for and they don't have it just tell Sam and they will try their best. Grape press is amazing! read more

I do not drink or smoke but I accidently remembered that this liquor store is selling lottery tickets, so I decided to stop by and buy some tickets even if I usually buy scratchers. The place is under new management, they added inventory and you will be impressed by the exquisite customer service (for instance, today ,my kids received a free lollypop just because I introduced them to the new owner). I also won every single time I bought lottery products from Grape Press, their selection of scratchers is fabulous . Hardly ever is anybody waiting in line, they are very fast and they excel in multitasking. They pay attention to details and noticed how they repeat and verify your lotto ticket preference and amount. They are very personable, they welcome new customers and make serious attempts to ask customers for recommendations that would improve their business. Stop by,visit Grape Press ,meet the new management and wish them success in their new business venture ! read more

I stopped by at Grape Press Liquor last weekend for a quick liquor pick up since i hate the waiting line of CVS next door...What a surprise!! New ownership,best craft beer selection,impressive bourbon and scotch whiskey bottles and some are hard to find, and a cool dude behind the counter named Sam .. Ask for his advice and you will get the best for your budget.. I will definitely stop by at Grape Press every time i go up there ..Highly recommended read more

This is by far the best liquor store in town, the new owners are great and take care of their customers. They have a huge selection and it's always growing from the requests of customers. Thanks again guys and a special thank you to Sam for always making sure each visit is awesome read more

Sam is always helping out, always getting certain things in the store that I want to see, really tends to the customers wants and never fails, 5 star, daily customer read more

Grape Press - The Grape Press Beer Cave - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Anaheim, California

See all

This place is great. First time here and I felt like an old friend. Sam's passion for whiskey is contagious and his knowledge is remarkable. This store is more like an exclusive bottle shop than a neighborhood convenience store. I recommend to anyone with discriminating taste, whether for spirits, beer or wine. I will be a regular. read more

This place takes customer service to the next level. Sam has to be one of the most awesome guys you will ever meet. Last October I was looking for "splits" to put at each place setting for my 25th wedding anniversary. I spent hours googling places but couldn't find exactly what I was looking for. I went into the Grape Press, and within a couple of days, Sam is calling telling me he found them, and for an incredible price, as I needed 120 of them. Then, the Canyon Fires happened and he was concerned that they might have a problem delivering them. He called me daily keeping me abreast of the entire process. It's not just that, but every time you are in his store he is so willing to go above and beyond to see to it that the customer is happy. I truly can say that he is rare these days. A refreshing example of what a store owner should be. He will forever be our first choice for spirits. Thank you Sam, for making our anniversary even that much more spectacular!!! read more

The new owner, Sam, is amazing! The place looks fantastic, a butterfly next to the worm it was before. They have a great selection of liquors, many of which were hand selected by Sam himself. A new Beer Cave, which gets updated constantly with new drinks. Even the wines range from the basic to the extravagant. I recommend this place to anyone who lives in the area or traveling through it. read more

Great place. Loved the new owners. Service was amazing. A very nice improvement from previous owners.

I get to California a few times of year and I am always looking for a good liquor store. Usually they don't have what I want or they don't have what I need and they can't get it by the time my vacation is over it's very frustrating. I have finally found one that can do it all for me Grape Press! It's nice to go into a store and be able to buy a nice gift that has not been over priced Ike some chain store or other liquor stores I have seen. I also appreciate not being pressured to buy something I don't want just because it will make the owner a few more dollars. Sam is a great person. Very friendly and knowledgable about his product. He is good to his customers and treats them well. Every time I come back to Cali this is the only place I will purchase my beer, wine and spirits and if you are lucky enough to live here I suggest you do the same. read more

Amazing beer choice... Sam is the best! Forever a customer. Since they changed ownership and I saw that they carried craft beer I had to check it out. Sam is very knowledgeable and smart about his beer and other alcohol. read more

Grape Press Liquor No longer an inconvenience, truly a place where you now feel welcome. Comparing this place to the old way it was run is a disservice. These guys are developing a business that rivals many of the big box liquor stores...and they are doing it with more class and savvy. As soon as you walk into their store, you know you are in a place that truly values servicing their customers. The atmosphere is warm, the selection is great, they will even ask you want you want to see stocked in their store. Yes, they follow through and get you what you asked for. They are creating a great environment for their customers that outshines every other store in their location. They get to know you, your name, even your buying habits all by memory, no digital tracking required. Sam is the Star down there; he is becoming what most of us would call a friend. My neighbors and I like to go see Sam for the usual shopping reasons, but also because he always makes us feel good for stopping by. This is the kind of neighbor we need in the hills. The place keeps getting better each time we show up and it is obvious that they are not stopping the improvements any time soon. One of the biggest surprises you will encounter in the store is that the customers are all so happy to see the new show and they typically are talking and joking with each other as if we had known everyone for a long time. If you have not been to Grape Press in the last few months, it is time you went back or tried it out for the first time. You should walk away with the same feeling that the rest of us get and will probably spread the word like we have been doing. I predict that Sam and Co. will be around for a long time to come. Thanks for being a great neighbor. Scotty G. read more

Had a really bad experience it's not about the money but its principal when the owner changes the price on you for the same product u buy over and over again right in front of u and clearly is ripping u off its wrong and I really liked what the new owners did they made it more cleaner and nicer but I would defiantly say they r a rip off. Not happy with how he treated me the price clearly said 99 cents but yet he charges 1.25 he said well with tax it's 1.08 all I said if u want to charge me that that's fine but I'm not returning and if he continues to do that he will be just like the old owners old and beat up in due time. Enjoy ur first year but once u burn everyone they will know. I was really happy for them until he did this. So sorry to put this review but u deserve it. read more

i live close by and have been going here for years. The couple that owns it have always gone out of their way to be friendly and courteous. It's convenient and no lines. read more

Ok so the options alone here are worth a visit to Grape Press. But I literally go here every time over ANY place nearby for everything from beer/wine to ice cream for my little girls, just because the customer service and friendly atmosphere is THAT good. The new owners have completely turned this place around. And Sam goes above and beyond to not only keep this place clean and stocked with what his customers want, but to make you feel like you are coming to visit a friend. And if they don't have something you want, they'll get it! Side note: prices are great too! ~ Nikki read more

First time here. Owner Sam was really helpful and full of craft beer knowledge. Great to have a liquor store with a great beer selection in the neighborhood. read more

Mr. Sam, this is a long over due review of your fantastic liquor store! I see sam and the crew almost daily. We in Anaheim hills have a small community and we all love this place! Thank you for turning it around and being the boss you are my man! Even if he doesn't have something in stock he will make it happen! read more

The customer service here is outstanding great spot to actually feel welcome and at home with the owners of your Im the area check it out

Hands down, the best liquor store in Anaheim Hills if not the ENTIRE universe!! Sam and Daniel are all about customer service. Once they learn your name, they know it. If you want something that they don't have, they'll order it. They are friendly, courteous, helpful and accommodating. It's the only liquor store I go to. Period. I'm very thankful to have them in my neighborhood. read more

Love this liquor store, always stocked with the best products. Sam is awesome and genuinely cares about his customers! Very affordable and is even open late now AND has a new beer cave which is PHENOMENAL x10 !!!! read more

WOW what a hidden gem in Anaheim Hills! This place is under new ownership and what a difference a new owner makes! Sam has gone out of his way to take care of me and all of my friends! If you haven't been there recently then you need to stop in and take a look at all of the AMAZING craft beers that they have! They also have a great wine and liquor selection as well!! A MUST TRY! read more

Okay, this place is a customized experience for you beer lovers. I hate writing a review as I don't want to give away my secret, but Sam deserves a great review. This liquor store used to be un-inviting... Then Sam bought it and has changed the place 180 degrees! He even built a BEER CAVE for all us "beer-dos". He has come through time and again on getting rare and good beer finds. I also know he has other liquors that are hard to find, but I am a beer guy... I highly recommend you check him out and follow him on FB and IG. Sam and Daniel are super friendly, always willing to "talk shop", and go out of their way to take care of their customers. Grape Press is a welcome addition to the neighborhood. read more

I love this place. Very well stalked. Management is awesome! Only liquor store I come too!

Awesome NEW OWNERS!!!! They changed the store around and it's now clean and brighter. I asked them to carry an item and the next shipment there it was. Glad the old rude owners are gone. Go give these guys your business. Especially if you are a beer expert. They have a ton of different bottles to try. read more

Grape press is under new ownership??what a pleasant surprise.. Just stopped by today for the first time in 4 years... Best craft beer selection and such a cool Beer Cave.. The new owner Sam got almost everything you may ask for.. Top shelf wine and an amazing Scotch whiskey selection and on top of that a 5+ stars customer service.. Thank you guys for bringing this place back to life .. Keep up the good job.Cheers read more

Sammy offers a fantastic selection of craft beer and liquor. He is very knowledgable about his product. The ownership changed a year ago and this business has transformed for the better. This is a must stop for all of your party needs. read more

I was looking for a specific beer from the Caribbean and decided to call this liquor store and see if they might carry it. Sam spoke to me and told me he didn't carry it but that he could make some calls and see if someone he knew might be able to get it for me. Not even BevMo nor Total WIne & More were this helpful. This is the kind of help that small businesses can and are willing to provide compared to big chain companies. This liquor store has gained a customer for life. read more

We have lived in Anaheim Hills for many years and are delighted at the new management at the Grape Press. The new owners are incredibly friendly and very helpful. The store is undergoing a small renovation and is looking great. The pricing is now reasonable and the owners care about the opinion of the local community welcoming any input and suggestions. We will definitely frequent the Grape Press much more often going forward! read more
