Located amongst the many businesses in the North End this is a small liquor store. Not a lot to choose from but has something for everyone if that makes sense, Came specifically for the Bricco Restaurant bottled espresso martini and they had plenty. read more

Hanover Wine & Spirits - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

See all

Popped in to grab a couple of cold personal size wines on a hot Sunday morning. They conveniently had a mini fridge located to the right of the entrance with a variety of wines to pick from including rose, Sauvignon blanc, Pinot noir, Prosecco, an a few more. We opted for spritzer rose and the Pinot noir. They were exactly what we needed to cool our bodies prior to brunch. Workers were personable. Would come again. read more

When I moved to the North End this liquor store held an air of mystery for me because it was...closed. I always wondered if it was some ancient remnant of a liquor store that was pushed out by Martignetti's or what. But it has reopened! The store is fully stocked with all of the standard brands of wine/prosecco. They have wine tastings on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays from 5pm until close. I mentioned to them that I was going to yelp their store and they gave me and my housemate keychains, a t-shirt, and a hat! Great sucking up to the reviewer! This place is owned by a true North End family who is so nice and fun (they also own the Green Cross Pharmacy). I recommend trying out the free wine samples, shopping around the wine/liquor selections, and chatting it up with the staff. Much friendlier than Martignetti's, I must say! read more

There are many good things about HW&S. It's convenient. They have a pretty good selection of wine. They sell jugs of sangria that are delicious and cheap. Two of their staff members are really friendly and helpful. Despite these good things, and despite the fact that it's a locally owned shop that I'm happy to support.... I miss Martingettis, mainly because Martingettis had Strongbow cider and I was so happy to find a place so close to my apartment that sold my happy drink. HW&S doesn't have nearly as much of a selection (at least of beers, ciders, and girlie drinks) as Martingetti's etiher. There have been a few times when the staff (not the aforementioned two) have been less than helpful, but they did introduce me to Syrah wine, and that gives them extra points in my book. read more

Not only is this place convenient but it has the best prices around. They are cheerful and very helpful. Has a wide range of wine. Also the staff is very helpful and friendly. Willing to order what you want that they dont. Highly recommend. read more

My go to liquor store! It is in the perfect location in the north end and fair prices. There is a good amount of wine for us winos, that are good prices, a lot are 2 for 14, or 3 for 15 (only warm bottles though). The staff is full of a bunch of funny and nice guys. They usually have tastings on fridays and saturdays, who doesn't love free booze? The BEST part is they have a frequent buyer card for us Amy WineHouses of the world. YES, you get points and special sales for being an alcoholic. read more

They carry a large selection of wine and spirits, and a decent selection of beer for a corner shop. Their price for a 6 pack of DFH 60 minute IPA was consistent, especially for a city. Easy and convenient if your located in the North End. read more

I wish the selection of champagnes was a bit larger, but I suppose the size of the place doesn't allow for much expansion. They have all the standards in stock, prices are lower than a lot of other spots in the neighborhood, and everyone that works here is always helpful when I am feeling adventurous and want to try a new wine. They also sell Sparks and beer by the can, and if whatever you are looking for is sold out on the floor, they'll gladly pull it for you from the stock in the back. read more

Wine shop; great that it was open when I went. Didn't really look around, wasn't that big.

Smallish liquor store right on Hanover Street in the North End. They have a decent amount of wines here - and I like the display the most. They have, along the back wall, your typical stacks of wine in wooden boxes but alongside each one is this cool copper-y wire thing holding a bottle of wine upright so you can easily see what's in the box without having to pick up each one. I was able to quickly scan the wall and see stuff I recognize as well as some new wines I wasn't aware about. Found an old-vine Zin-blend I didn't know existed from this one vineyard who has done well with old-vine tech in the past. They sell other hard liquor too, and I found the prices of wine, etc, to be in line with stores outside of Boston - maybe a buck more but hey, this place probably needs the extra money to pay for.... uh... "insurance"..... read more

Purchased a gift certificate for Hanover Wine and Spirits and they will not honor it. Very unethical shop. Stay away!

I like this place. It's dependable, has good service, a decent selection, and a nice range from the 2-for $ value bottles (which are not less good; just less pricey) to the top shelf goodies, and even some that seem rare. I haven't yet figured out their hours; not posted online and haven't caught them on the phone, but otherwise I can count on this place to have what I'm looking for and I'll feel good about buying it because I get service with a smile. read more

I go to this place all the time... I love the people who work there, they are so nice and helpful and have an amazing collection of wines for very reasonable prices. They also have great tastings usually on the weekends. I am familiar with different stores in the North End and I would not give my business to anyone else except Hanover Liquors, you should definitely stop in! read more

The diminutive (as compared to the former Martignetti's) Hanover Wine & Spirits is very pricey and does not suit the preferences of the average customer, in terms of economy or taste. The limited selection compels one to inquire as to whether the ownership cares at all about its customer base. For example, after searching for a magnum bottle of white table wine (Carlo Rossi Chablis - one of the rare bargains to be had from this particular outlet) on three successive occasions, and each time finding the shelf bare, I asked why the manager why.. "It doesn't sell," the employee responded. This made no sense to my ears, since if the product does not sell, then why would the shelf continue to remain bare? On a fourth visit, after having experienced the same result as before, the manager informed me that a local dining establishment had bought out the entire stock of the product I so desired. But if both individual customers and restaurants alike desire a certain brand of wine, then why not simply increase the supply of the order? It would seem make sense to anybody else, save the person at Hanover Wine and Spirits whose duty it is to oversee the stock, and thus order the requisite quantity of liquor supplies in an effort to satisfy the prevailing demand of the clientele. In short, in owing to the repeated disappointments mentioned above, and other reasons (such as the fact the hours of operation are not clearly posted, and thus remain uncertain for the customer, as noted here in the Jess K. review), I would strongly recommend shopping at the other liquor outlets in the North End, most all of which are better equipped to cater to the community tastes, in terms of both price and variety of choice. read more

I have lived in the North End for about a year and a half now and i have to say that this place is the best!!! Great selection of wines to say the least. Sometimes i walk into this oasis not knowing exactly what i feel like getting at the time but with the assistance of the many (attractive) employees working there i always leave satisfied ; ) . If I had to pick one particular part of this store that i didn't like, which I would be hard pressed to do, I would say would have to be the guy Dan or Danny that works there. Even with my mother standing beside me he thought that it would be appropriate to hit on her in front of me which i found very strange. There was one guy there who I found to be very helpful (Eric) in my search for the perfect drink. Not only do I highly recommend this liquor store above any other, ALWAYS ask for Eric. Hes the best. If you're in the North End and you want to have a good time, this is definitely the place to go. 5 out of 5. read more
