No, it's not the biggest store in the city, but to my mind it has become the best. Why? Three important ways: 1) Best service, never fail. Walk in the store and they ask if they can help, but they stay out of your way if you tell them you don't. Try getting help in some of the other stores? Difficult, typically. 2) Superb selection. Everything I'm looking for and more is here, and the people working here are pros. I asked today about the 200 yr. anniversary Guinness, guy doesn't blink and said they had a run on it but expect to be replenished in tomorrow's shipment. Not an unusual response, particularly the workers in the back who really seem to have it under control. 3) Consistency, see #1 and #2. I get this every time I arrive. No shortages, no folks standing around with hands in their pockets, no bored "when is my shift ending" looks on faces, etc. I can even recycle my wine corks here. I like that. And yet I can still come in and get surprised at what I can find, and that really makes me happy. The convenient parking is also a real plus, and with the laws recently changed the store has gotten larger (no need to separate out things like glassware into another internal "store" etc. Just keeps getting better so happy to revisit this review.

This quintessential liquor store is where it's at. When I lived in Lawrence, we went to a smaller…read moreone nearby that had few options and a higher price tag. On The Rocks is a nice, large, easy-in-easy-out kind of place with really good selections. I went in hoping picking out a nice variety for a nearby event, and it was easy to find everything; good local brews, chilled wines tiered off by price, and a cart to haul it all around in. Service was pretty good as well as I needed a bag of ice and the nearby cashier overheard me and brought it over for me as I checked out. Between this and Cork & Barrel, the LFK liquor store scene is in good hands.

But what makes Cork & Barrel my favorite wine and booze shop in town is the fact that they have two wondrous months where if you buy a case of wine, you get a 20% discount (April, you can't come soon enough. The other month is October). Not only that, but every monday is 10% off hard liquor. As you can probably gather, I am a wine lover (I prefer Italian reds), and if I can afford it, I try to buy as many cases of wine during discount months to, you know, store in my wine cellar (*eye roll* as if I'd store wine down where the cave crickets lurk).

What really gets me about a place is how helpful the staff are. Even though their was only one guy working, he walked me through each level of vodka and helped me pick which would work best for me. He also explained how their specials work (seriously hop on those). It took a while but he was really helpful. They had lots of options, which can be really intimidating but it's a good thing when you have patient, kind staff who know what they are talking about.

There was no one to wait on me and I wondered about the store aimlessly looking for one product. The clerk told me she had customers and could not help me. So I never went back... until now. I was looking for a special bottle of wine for a Christmas gift. I was waited on, showed several different options and treated very respectfully. Zach was the person helping me and he could not have been nicer. He showed me different wines with different price points and made sure I was satisfied with my purchase. I was overwhelmed with his helpfulness. The cashier was also very nice and courteous. It was a pleasant experience and I was glad I came back. They have tons of parking, the building is easy to access and the store is clean and well lit. There are many different prices on things so you have a range of products from which to choose. Next time I won't take so long to go back!

But if I lived on this side of town I'd be a regular. Don't get some of the low ratings, but that's not my problem. What I really like which I've observed here before, is although they're not the largest in town, the selection is top tier, and shows that the people running it know their business. Not just a beer stop for the college crowd. If you're hunting down a first-rate single malt from Islay or need a small batch bourbon out of Kentucky, they have it. And the wines, the same. I was in particular on the hunt for a Barossa Valley aussie wine and found several to my liking. That and "Butter," one of the few Chardonnays I regularly bring home. Service was professional and someone came around to assist but didn't hover in place like a freaking drone. Thank you. New twist in checking out: they bar code scan your purchases through plexiglass. Cool! Works for me. And everyone is adequately observing best safety practices. No mask deniers need enter, thank you. I can get used to people with brains. Not sure when I return, but I left with everyone I was looking for, saw far more than I'd ever need, and everything else here--pricing included--is what it should be. Well done, Mass Beverage.

I went in…read morefor a bag of ice but left my purse in the car and only took my keys and credit card into the store with me. The manager said he didn't normally take a debit or credit card for a purchase that small because it cost him money. I looked around and there was no sign indicating you had to purchase X amount before you could use a debit/credit card. He kept saying "We're good this time." Then he started telling me how it cost him money every time someone uses a credit/debit card. Duh. Like I did not know that already but since he had no signage up, I did not think it would have been a problem. I asked him how much he got charged and he said 3%. So he is going to bitch about 3% of $1.75? Couldn't believe it. He said, "I am going to let it go this time" like I was trying to pull a fast one on him. I went to my car, grabbed a some money out of my wallet and gave him $1.00 over his protestations. His last words to me were, "I don't want your dollar!" I left it there anyway, turned around and left. I'll never go back, that's for sure. ***************************************************** I have no clue when it comes to wine. I know it's made from grapes. know it has to age and they *poof* make wine from it and put it in bottles. That's about the extent of my wine knowledge. Understandably I get panicked when I have been entrusted to get wine as a gift. Slight panic set in and I had to consider my options. I thought about going to the big box store but I cannot ever get help there. Also, I am in a cast from an accident and cannot traipse down aisle and aisles looking for someone to help me. I opted for The Wine Cellar which is just down the street from me and small. So glad I popped into this little corner store. The clerk was so incredibly helpful. He showed me their selection and patiently answered all my questions. He showed me the wine he liked and he asked the right questions about the occasion and person for whom I was buying the wine. He made me feel very confident in my purchase. The wine was reasonably priced, as well. He even gave me a bag and a ribbon fir my wine. He prettied it all up, too. Great customer service!! This is a small store but do not be fooled. They have great dejection at good prices. You will not be disappointed!

My first experience here was not the best and I doubt I would return. My roommate and I work at a…read morerestaurant nearby and after we got off we rushed over, knowing the store was closing in ten minutes. We knew what we wanted, but as we approached the door the man told us they were closing and couldn't let us in. I said I just wanted a 30-pack and he reluctantly let me come in. I grabbed exactly what I wanted and walked to the counter. While he was checking us out he called to his coworker, passive-aggressively, and said the guy would have to unlock the door to let us out because he'd already locked it so that "no one else could come in." I checked my phone and it was still five minutes until close. I understand that it was a Friday night, I'm sure they got busy since it's still the holiday season, but if you want to have returning customers maybe you should obey the rules and keep your store open until you're supposed to instead of trying to turn people away. We tried to be nice the entire time because we also work in the service industry and understand guest satisfaction, but this was ridiculous. It's also unfortunate that this is their first Yelp review. Hm.

Truthfully, their selection of Italian reds leaves something to be desired, but I always find a decent Sangiovese or Chianti for under 15 bucks, so that's cool. I wish they had more in the 7.99 category or the 15.00 magnum category. It's just how I drink... They have a good selection of spirits, no doubt. You'll find your favorite small batch, local vodkas here (Most Wanted & Honor from KS and 360 from MO) and ton of others, too. The store is sectioned so that it's pretty easy to find what you're looking for and at the end of aisles you'll find displays of affordable/highly rated (that mysterious point system)/local wines. Location next to the Merc gives it an extra star, because it means I don't have to make a stop at Cork & Barrel, which admittedly has better specials and variety, but who needs to make an extra stop?

I made several contacts with the owner about this, but nothing was done and the remaining case was still on the shelf. After I spoke to her again, she gave me a bottle and asked me to see if it was bad too. I thought, "Why don't you try it?" That one was bad too so I took it back to her. A couple of weeks went by and the same bottles remained on the shelf and there was no offer to compensate me. I was in there today, and she said they had opened another bottle and it was fine. In other words screw you. I pity the poor sucker who buys it. Unfortunately, the owner doesn't understand that a person who has lived in this community for 45 years talks to a lot of people!
