I would like to share my most recent experience of when I was yelled at and chased out of Lena's Liquor because the girl working at the counter stated she doesn't care for me because I "sound like a valley girl". I honestly cannot help I was raised in Southern California. I never mean to come off pompous, but I guess I rubbed her the wrong way one day and she had been mean to me ever since. I always greet her and she always ignores me but will speak to other customers. I usually bring my own bags, but this time I didn't and asked her for a bag, she put the bag out and told me to bag it myself. I was appalled. I am always a very nice person, ask any of the other 8 employees that work there, in addition to the owner. This behavior is simply not sustainable for good business. read more

My favorite liquor store to pick up craft beer in East Escondido, selection might not be as good as the other "craft beer " spot across the street but prefer the service and prices from this spot hands down. Good selection of hazies/NE IPA's and other styles as well. Definitely recommend if you're in this side of town and looking for some brews. read more

Stopped in here and was very surprised at the large beer selection available. I found several Bottle Logic beers from different years I had not seen before. They had Belching Beaver specialty beers from several years ago. Downside, many people including staff not wearing mask. When I asked for a beer on one of the upper shelfs I could not reach, I was given a stool and got it myself. No big deal but 99% of any business would not allow it for insurance purposes. I would definitely stop in again to see what beers they have. You can tell some of them have not moved in awhile because of the dust. I would try to stop in when it is not busy and not to linger to long. read more

Walked in here because I heard good things and wanted to see what they had. I happened to be wearing a Pliny the Younger shirt and the dude behind the counter, without greeting me or any other kind of acknowledgement immediately starts talking smack. Just starts going off on how that beer is overrated and people who are into it are dumb. Like dang bro it's just a shirt, if you didn't want my business just say so. I left without buying anything. Stupid move considering there is another store across the street and the dude who works there was actually friendly. read more

Went in to buy liquor and when i gave her my ID she rejected it. Gave no reason other than "no". Really disappointing

Came in here on Sunday july 12th at 7:15pm to buy a mix that i can only find here. The guy working at the cash register wasnt wearing a mask so i kindly asked him if he could put one on for when we paid since we would be so close to each other. When we went to pay he didnt have it on so i asked him if he wasn't going to put it on he responded with "nah i dont have to" and then said "you're wearing one so why do you even worry about it". His ignorance was so apparent at this time. He then said "if you don't like it you can go shop somewhere else". read more

I love this Leñas Liquor they got really good service and cool ass employees keep up the good work

I always stop in here whenever I'm driving by it's my favorite stop for liquor. The variety is never disappointing and the craft beers are never dull. It's just really my go to place. The staff is friendly, and I really like the feel of the place overall on how everything is organized and looks, it's well thought out. read more

Great liquor store with an even better staff. He overheard us discussing drinking plans and didn't hesitate to recommend different brands. We left prepped and ready for a great Vegas getaway. read more

Lenas Liquor - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Escondido, California

This place has a great inventory of hard to find liquor, and at unbelievable prices. In December, I bought 2 cases of some liquor I could not find anywhere. When I told the man(owner I think) I wanted 2 cases, he told me to leave the display cases, and that he had a ton of them in the back. He proceded to grab a hand truck and wheel the cases out to my vehicle. When the supply dries up, I will be back. read more

Store has the largest selection of of beer in Escondido not to mention the freshest largest variety of Swishers read more

Lenas Liquor - a display of cigarettes for sale - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Escondido, California

My husband was looking for Grand Mariner 150.. although they didn't have it the manager told my husband the next time he came back he would have three on the shelf. That WON our business... we went to seven different liquor stores looking for a bottle on Christmas Eve ... and no one person offered to do that for our future business. That is what I call customer service !! read more

I come here when I know a new, hard to find beer has hit the market. Nobody knows this place gets the good stuff, so you should definitely hit them up next time you need a beer in Esco. read more

Lenas Liquor - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Escondido, California

Went into Lena's Liquor looking for Garage Brewing Company beer. And found 3 of my favorite beers from there and also was given notice that GBC not only makes 22 oz. bombers but also make 6-packs as well... I scored. read more

See all

I went to this store to get some coals for my hookah. Then I remembered they had a deal on a dream hose so I checked that out and ended up buying one. But!!! Even though the price was great the service was horrible. He tried selling me the display box that was torn in half so I requested the box that was intact. He then called me a little girl and gave me attitude the rest of the visit. Never been treated this poorly ANYWHERE. I come here often at least once a week sometimes more. I will not be coming back. The only reason they got one star is because of the price. Would not recommend this place to anyone. read more

This place is the absolute BEST! Customer service? Check! Every single person that works there is warm, engaging, personable, they remember you when you return, each and every one of them is an awesome individual. Selection? They literally have whatever you are looking for. Price? They cannot be beat in Escondido. Most of the liquor stores in this town charge an arm AND a leg for every little thing! Lena's is INCREDIBLY fair on whatever it is you're looking for. And their hours? Don't worry about it. If you're trying to go there, they're open. I love Lena's and everyone that works there. You guys rock. I moved here from Oceanside and thought I'd never find a store I loved as much as my favorite store there. I was wrong. Lena's is the best. Bar none. read more

I love this liquor store! They have a great selection of craft beers, three different flavors of kombucha on tap and the staff is super friendly and helpful. I will definitely make a point to stop by when I'm in the area! read more

1 of the best places in Escondido. They have everything and great staff

I like the fact that they are verity of different micro beers and the staff is very friendly and always willing to help!!

I will never go this liq. Store EVER. I thought it was just me, I went in to by some libations , and the lady behind the counter gave me the most scariest look I have ever encountered. I asked her a questioned about one of the selections they had, she was very nasty. I thought to myself well maybe she is having a bad day. 3 weeks later my husband wanted to know where I found the wine we liked, I told him. So here we go, I sent him in. I did not tell him anything about my experience, ( I did not want him to be jaded). He came back to the car, he said damn who pissed her off. I said, oh you got the rudeness too. We will never go there again. read more

I was so happy to find out that a local liquor store sold dry ice. I've been here 3 times and used dry ice for shipping purposes and traveling to go camping. Great customer service and always courteous owner. read more

If you need to get your kegs THIS IS THE PLACE. They have a huge selection. Kegs dry ice, liquor, everything you need. main guy Ron is the shit. Bevmo has got nothing on the prices at Lena's, highly recommend! read more

Everyone here is very friendly and they always the liquor I want available! They are the best liquor store in Escondido!

This place is as great as it gets! Especially when you are a micro beer connoisseur! I was looking for my usual beers I normally get and get something new that I haven't had. The owner/manager recommended a few beers off the giant micro beer wall and yeah...I went home happy. Plus the kegs are worth the price. 1/4 keg of sculpin for 100 bucks ain't bad at all. Definitely coming back for another Beer Run! read more
