We had been on our way from the Turtle Cafe to pick up prosecco for Sunday mimosas when we came upon a broken, burned building. Completely destroyed. I felt so awful for them. You cannot imagine how excited and happy I was to see a sign for the new shop just up the street months later. I had to stop to make sure it was real. Sure enough there was Cindy at the counter! All of the customers, myself included, smiled back at her when we checked out and told her we were so happy to see them back up and running! All that aside, Cindy has a great selection of wines and beers. She is always willing to put in request orders as well. Wandering through her coolers, I have come across many gems including Pipeworks' Ninja vs Unicorn. Her shop is the only place I have been able to find it so far! The last time I was there, a woman from Gooseneck Vineyards was also there doing tastings. An added bonus with more space! If you are in the area, this is a great bet for meeting your beverage needs.

No, but they had more than enough to choose from. I loved the little cooler in front of the register that had a bunch of singles in there of all types of canned libations. Very cool! I'd stop in again when I'm down that way.

The only shop in town who would deliver was Old Colony. He did it for free, and was persistent in getting it delivered. Today, there are 6 stores in town and some of them deliver (one has a $100 minimum for free delivery). I'm for the local guy. The store is on the small side, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have a wide selection. The aisles are narrow, but he has a good selection of wine and beer, and he's very knowledgeable and great with selections. He's also a one-man show. As far as I can tell, he's the only employee. He's got to be the hardest working guy in town. His prices are good; his service is impeccable; his selection is top drawer. What's not to like?

The store gave me a discount of $2.00 on a $417.00 purchase. I did not get 10% off on a case buy. We questioned the cashier and his response is that it would bring it below state min. Did he really analyze each wine I bought to determine this? I go to other stores and the retail is $1.00 less and I get 10% off. Not that I go there often but now I never will. They do have a good selection, but a bit overpriced.

Like all package stores in Connecticut, they became "necessities" after Covid. Which gave them the permission to treat their customers however they felt. We are -promised income- to them so they can do and charge whatever they want. They have roaches in their store, not surprised between George Washington Carver and the crazy folks home behind the store they found a highway to spread. Ask them to turn the lights off for five minutes and see how many roaches are caught off guard. The prices change daily with your commitment to their store. They play games with the prices to see if you are paying attention. Trust me, PAY ATTENTION. they refuse to clean their store and also do not keep up with expired items in the non-alcoholic cooler. When you do speak up against wrongful treatment, they ask you to leave. The fact that they don't kick you out, because they want your money tomorrow is a great example of their corruption. Do yourselves a favor and avoid this garbage can. There are extremely cleaner stores the exact distance in both directions from this store. Also, Wine Merchant on broad St opens at 8am as well to the alcoholics!. (Both buildings are very infested with bed bugs- BE CAREFUL!)-

I hadn't been there in a while and stopped by en route to running errands etc. Walked in, spoke to the cashier and got a stone face in reply. "Ok" I said to myself. In comparison to the former owner he leaves much to be desired. The former owner, who was also the manager, was always pleasant and helpful. This person, never. This person has never been what I call "cordial", ever. I also don't see other employees so it appears this place is another one of those establishments run solo. Anyway, I'm good patronizing a place that appreciates my business with a friendly demeanor. I miss the former owner and his lovely employees.
