A brand new, ginormous LCBO right down the street from me?! AWESOME!…read more This location used to have one of the of the oldest, run down LCBOs in Ottawa, and it totally deserved this facelift. It's located right across the street from Carlingwood in the revamped Fairlawn Plaza. What makes this location so freakin' awesome? It's huge! It's size makes the selection great, and I have a bit of a sentimental attachment to it since it's were I first discovered pre-mixed Canadian Club and Ginger ale (SO convenient - right?!). Seriously though, the selection kicks butt, the staff are helpful and pleasant and it's brand new! What's not to love? Also, if you happen to be a drinking cyclist, they have a bunch of places for your bike (and they're used - a lot. I don't know how people have such awesome balance that they can bike home with a 2-4, but props to them). My only teeny tiny complaint it that they're only open till 9 p.m. most nights, but so are most locations that aren't downtown. Otherwise, thank you Ontario for this wonderful establishment!

TL;DR/The Short Version: Beer and wine making supplies…read morestore. Lots of inventory. The Long Version: One of my husband's hobbies is to brew his own beer. Am I interested in this? No. Do I even like beer? No. Am I a supportive wife? Yes. We like to do things together, so when he needs some beer brewing supplies, we go to Defalco's together. The store is well stocked. It pretty much has everything a home brewer would need. The warehouse section is dimly lit, but the place where you can brew your own beer (or make your own wine) is brightly lit. So if you don't want to buy all the equipment and just brew it there with their equipment, that's an option. My husband prefers to brew at home though, so our basement has lots of brewing gear, mostly purchased at Defalco's. Staff are pleasant. There's free parking on-site. Review #66 (2025)

This place sells supplies for making home made wine, beer, and cider. They have facilities to make…read morethe above on site but I've never tried that. The staff here is really knowledgeable and friendly. They will set you up with all the materials you need and then it's your job to use them use them, mix them, ferment them, and enjoy them. Don't be afraid of making your own drinks. I have screwed up in the past and made garbage but I've also made some decent drinks. Once you have the equipment, the cost of drinks will be cheaper than store bought. Wine is especially cheaper. Will you impress your sommelier friends? Not likely. Will you be proud of your creation everytime you drink some? I don't know but I am. Go there, ask questions, invest some money and time, and enjoy the fruits of your labour. Make a little hobby with a fun reward. I did and I don't regret it.

This LCBO was completely ok! I came in looking for Irish Cream for Christmas Coffee, and found it…read more As it happens there are sooo many flavours of it now, and the biggest one is about $55.00!!! I don't need that much. I chose salted caramel flavour, and started towards the cash. Before I got there, I got side tracked by the wine section... Specifically the one in a cat-shaped bottle. Every year it's a different colour,; this year it's a peachy shade. $12.95. Almost at the cash, waiting in line, and what do I see? Irish Cream with a Lindt treat attached to it... but the beverage is Red Velvet flavoured. THAT one came home with me instead!! Oh yeah!! Bring it on!! The staff was pleasant and helpful. Checkout wasn't too long in spite of the lineup and Christmas and COVID... And oh yeah, there seems to be more alcohol in the program with the pandemic!!

You may purchase cases of six, twelve, fifteen, twenty-four or even twenty-eight. My spouse likes Newcastle brown in bottles. It is a four point seven alcohol content. I prefer bottled Canadian beers. Today we purchased some Newcastle and Moosehead. They last a long time so we can enjoy them for at least a month probably two. This is a convenient place to pick up our beverages since we are often in this area..
