    LeNell's has an incredible selection of unique liquors, wines, non-alcoholic options, and mixers. I got an orange wine that was so delicious. I asked LeNell herself if it was good and she said "I wouldn't sell anything I wouldn't drink myself." SOLD! The claw-foot gin tub, tile flooring, gorgeous wood cabinets, and sharply designed product labels make being inside LeNell's a fun experience. There is so much to LOOK AT! Not to mention, LeNell is a big personality that fills the space with an air of community that's hard to find these days. Everything inside is very fairly priced as well. You can easily buy a bottle of wine for under $20 and the liquor selection seems like standard pricing to me. If you need a specialty drink product, this is definitely the place to find it!

    LeNell's has got it all figured out! This place is SUPER legit for all of your liquor and wine needs! The staff is BEYOND friendly and SUPER knowledgeable about the products in stock! Also did a wine tasting as well, for the mead honey wine. That was amazing! If you are ever in the downtown Alabama area, try our LeNell's for your liquor or wine needs! Tell them I sent you! LOL!

    My husband found this little gem on google and when we went through their Facebook page, we noticed Miss LeNell herself had a store pick Old Forrester. I called right away on December 23 and bought two bottles over the phone. So on Christmas Eve we came to pick up and I'm so happy we did!! The store was quaint but has so many amazing options. I want to say pieces because everything looks like art!! Miss LeNell was even there and talked to us for a good 10 minutes and even took a picture with me!! She said she's hoping to open her cafe/bar next door within 2 years. We are only in the area once a year but this place will be my top destination every time. Come support local if you're in the Birmingham area!! Everything about this place is fabulous; the decor, the displays, the options, even the owner herself!!

    a tub full of liquor

    LeNell's is where you go when you need a very specific liqueur, type of bitters or a large selection of mocktail ingredients. A lot of their stuff tends to be on the high side for pricing but man, if you need it in a pinch, they probably have it or can recommend a great substitute. The staff is knowledgeable and helpful and will sometimes even provide a taste test. The store decor is kind of like a mini museum to liquor and fun to wander around in with the bathtub gin definitely a centerpiece.

    Oh LeNell!! This was the cutest little beverage boutique on this side of the Mississippi River. Not sure if that is saying, but hey I used it. I had never heard of a beverage boutique until this place and I am so glad that I did. It's nestled in the community of Norwood in small building located next to a large vintage building that will be converted to a restaurant. I can't wait for that!! The owner was super sweet and so knowledgeable. She gave us a sample of Damiana. It's a liqueur made from the Damiana plant in Mexico. It is a light tequila with a very smooth sweet, mellow, woody flavor. It's great to try products before you purchase them. Did I forget to mention that there is an old fashioned bath tub filled with alcohol. And a beverage cooler that can cool a bottle of wine in 5 minutes. I mean Wow!! There are so many spirits that I had a time choosing what to buy. I can see myself becoming a frequent customer. I returned to purchase the Damiana that was sampled. Hannah was SSSOOO helpful. She was knowledgeable and super patient as I asked a million questions. This will definitely be a staple place to keep my bar stocked!!

    Super adorable liquor boutique. It nothing like your typical package store. I love how the alcohol is almost like a decoration. It's kind off the beaten path but definitely worth the trip. I got to visit during a Yelp elite event and will definitely be back to stock up on my home bar.

    Food trucks @ LeNell's 50th Birthday celebration

    Decided to come out and celebrate LeNell's Birthday. There are some nice vendors and food trucks out. Desserts and entrees. There's entertainment and you can also sample some Mississippi gin. More entertainment is scheduled throughout the day. Happy 50th Lenell!!

    Quaint eclectic and well rounded beverage store that checks all the boxes of a boutique wine and spirit shop. LeNell was extremely helpful as my wife and I stopped in to shop for my brother in-law with high dollar wine taste. She was very thorough and helped by explaining the unique stock that she keep on hand along with supporting sustainable and organic wine makers not stocked in the big box stores. She also had a great selection of spirits and my favorite bourbon. Great spot to shop for unique gifts, your "difficult" arm chair Sommeliers or Bourbon Hunters. Will be back for sure.

    This little shoppe is a gem! When purchasing a gift the staff is incredible. They are more knowledgeable than any package store staff. I've loved every visit to this store! It was here that I discovered my favorite vodka. It's organic, made in Hawaii and so dang smooth!

    Nice boutique. Whiskey is price gouged at some bottles over 50 percent standard prices. Angels Envy rye listed at $150 for example.

    Great food event at Sloss Furnaces this year! There was food from EastWest, The Mayor, Bongiorno,…read moreSol y Luna, Tre Luna, Adorned Sweets, Daniel George, Habitat Feed & Social, and Troup's Pizza (that I can remember at least!). There were cocktails from Reve, Paper Doll, Adios, as well as beer and wine samples. It is a great way to taste some local cuisine!

    This is an annual event held in Linn Park, downtown Birmingham…read more This is a well conceived, but poorly executed event. Tickets are sold in advance and at the gate. There is not enough of a discount for the pre-sales to take the risk of inclement weather as absolutely no refund is offered. That would be okay if the "organizers" did some planning and made arrangements for rain. But no, they have outside tables with no cover so these tables are useless if it rains or is very hot as was the case in 2013. You end up standing in line for measly offerings of food and then stand to eat. There are no facilities in the event itself to go relieve yourself of consumed beverages. Why not expand the area for the restaurants? This is a real charlie foxtrot. Nobody can walk by, the lines are ridiculously long and when it rains, it is just a massive jam. If you are going to take my money and offer no refund, you need to plan for rain, very hot weather and other contingencies. The portions are small, usually cold and unappetizing. You can go to a good restaurant for the money and not have to put up with all the inconvenience. We will not go back until better planning is initiated. I would recommend taking this event off your future plans. I came home wet, aggravated, disappointed and feeling like my pocket had been picked. No, no, just no. If you want to be miserable, go. Otherwise, go somewhere else. IMHO, this is the kind of event that needs to go out of business.
