I didn't want to fight the lines at Vons just to get a few beers so I checked out this place. Prices are pretty high here and I regret purchasing a 4 pack of Mammoth Kolsch here, which was about $17, whereas over at Grocery Outlet, the same 4 pack was $12. I paid a $5 extra for convenience and not dealing with lines. Doubt I will do that again, but this place probably helps those when the grocery store is closed and if you want some serious alcohol. I will pass next time I am in town. I like to save every penny, if I can help it. It all goes towards Vivian's gear and experience fund! read more

The person working new his inventory and was very helpful. Recommend based on selection.

4.5. This place sounds like it needs a new business name lol, because whatbI gathered is it switched owners and is dealing with all the old crappy reviews? We popped in after a Yosemote trip and were staying across the street. On a walk in Mammoth, we grabbed a road soda. We were hoping for a larger selection because it didn't seem like they had 300 beers as the sign quoted. But the layout was cool and inside looked nice. Big tourist town, so will satisfy travels, most likely. read more

I waited 3 hours and they didn't deliver. Don't trust this business. This is a scam. read more

Mammoth Liquor is one of those spots that immediately makes you feel taken care of. The hospitality here is honestly unmatched. The staff is friendly, patient, and always ready with a recommendation. They make you feel like a regular even if it is your first time walking in. Their beer selection is impressive, with a wide range of local and craft options that you do not always find at smaller shops. Whether you are grabbing something familiar or looking to try something new, they have what you need. The hours are super convenient. They are open at good times, especially when other places seem to be closed, and that makes them an easy go to. Great service, great selection, great vibes. Highly recommend. read more

Great service.! $highky recommend it's a must try if you're in the area. Amazing staff/ great employees

I walked into this establishment to find out that things have changed. I saw a new face and he introduced himself saying that he's the new owner. John has recently bought the place and has changed a good amount already. From the store hours opening until 11pm every night, to new liquor shelves and a whole lot more items to choose from. I asked for a certain product to which he stated that due to him taking ownership, obtaining distribution companies are a work in progress. He then, wrote the product down on a list filled with items that other customers have asked for. I then talked to him and asked him what his plans were for the shop and he stated that construction will take place soon and that it's going to be a full refresh from what the store was from before, while keeping the things that people enjoyed. He also stated that he plans on building a better image for the store and building the relationships for the locals, something the previous owner never cared about. Seems like big changes are coming for this place and looks to be in a positive way. read more

I normally do not leave negative reviews, but after the short older man in a beard was a complete jerk to my family, with rude comments, disrespectful remarks and cursing I was compelled to return and politely give him my two cents about respect for people, especially paying customers. Steer clear of this place definitely don't let your wives or teens go in here alone. read more

We walked in to pickup some beverages for the Super Bowl and the young guy behind the counter was so helpful. I wanted gluten free cider and I told my husband not to ask Bc I feel like that's an embarrassing question to ask when you're not in LA where everyone has a food sensitivity, but he asked anyway and we were hooked up, I even have some to take home! We also got some local brews for the hubby. Added bonus was the cute pup named Dookie who greeted us! If you get to meet the store pet, added bonus! I did read the reviews from others about the owner not being nice. I don't think he was there, I guess call ahead if you're worried about the owner being mean read more

This place is great. The new owners are super nice and friendly, and their selection is fantastic. They have everything! Plus, it's very nice and neatly organized inside. It looks modern and brand new inside. Definitely go here for your wine, booze, or beer in Mammoth! read more

Really cool liquor store with so many great choices! I love the decor and the psychedelic posters in the back. The owner was a bit hesitant to interact with us when we first arrived, but after seeing how excited we were about his store, he warmed up to us. He educated us on the types of beer he had and the distributors he used, it was a cool and fun experience buying beer from here! I just wanted to point out that although other people have had bad experiences here, the owner is really nice when you get to know him. You really never know what someone is going through in their personal lives or how their day is going...I think we should all try to be more understanding when interacting with one another. It's a really stressful time for everyone, including business owners. read more

The older man who works at this store was a complete jackass to me. After saying "excuse me sir, do you accept EBT?" he responded *entirely sarcastically* "oh sure, let me just put everything down to help you. I'm clearly not busy and you obviously need help." I did need help; I have food stamps and wanted to know if the store accepted them. It was a quick and easy question. After we made initial eye contact and I asked the question, he could have very easily let me know that he needed a minute. I would have gladly and patiently waited. Needless to say, I will not be bringing my cash, debit card, or credit card to use at this store. His level of rude and disrespect should not go unnoticed. I am sad to write this, and if he is not management, I hope that management will address this with him. Not only is it basic, good customer service, it is plain common decency for your fellow human. read more

The sign outside reads "300 beers" is what drew me in to look around, I was looking for a certain beer and found it here, price looked fair so I picked up three. saw a lot of misc. souvenirs, t-shirts, hats etc. Service was ok, since I had three beers I thought the cashier would put them in a bag for me but I had to ask for a bag and he did with no problem. I would come back if I needed something else next time cause it's next to Rick's fishing tackle. The two stores are a good combo for fishermen and women Lol. read more

Man, I thought maybe I had an anomaly of a bad experience, but after reading these reviews for this place, I understand the Caucasian employee/individual with a bald head and mustache is just a sad, pathetic excuse for a human being who is just overall just mad at life. I came in, bought two six packs of beer, asked if they had another product I was looking for, and he gave me attitude and a disgusted response. On top of that, I took a pen from the register, and he gave me a snippy, short, and rude response as I walked out the door. I can honestly say I will never be back here, I hope that liquor shop goes out of business and that sad old man learns his lesson! Treat your customers right, and it will go a long way! read more

I went here by accident as I thought this was A Frame Liquor and completely missed that this building is not an A Frame. Anyway, this was a bizarre (unacceptable) experience and I won't be back. When I walked in, I wasn't greeted, not a big deal. Not long after though, I felt the cashier (owner?) glaring at me and watching my every move (out of the corner of my eye, I could see him doing it, confirming my feeling), and it was uncomfortable. I felt this strong feeling "you better buy something." I am picking up bottles, looking at the prices and then putting them back. I knew what the prices were elsewhere, but was in town so I dropped by. These prices were quite a bit higher. I had such a bad feeling that I picked up some cheap garnishes just to get out of there (I know, I should have just left and not felt compelled to buy anything). When I handed him the items, he gave me an attitude "This is all you're buying?" Yes, yes it is. I handed him the cash, and he was reluctant to accept it. He wouldn't grab it from me, so I laid it on the counter and he just sat there not touching it. At this vantage point at the counter, he was behind a plastic partition and I couldn't see what his trip was with the cash. It was really weird. Then he threw the change at me. I don't know what his problem is. All I can think is that he has one set of return customers and those are the only ones he wants to do business with. Go to Vons. read more

Should have read the reviews before coming here - The old guy who works here is extremely rude. He got offended when I asked if they had Apple Pay and made a series of rude comments. Do yourself a favor and send your business anywhere else but here. read more

I had a bad vibe going into this place. The guy at the register was a jerk. We were looking for a place to get milk for my kids and saw a sign that said Mammoth Liquor and Grocery. So we decided to go in and give it a try. Big mistake! Not only was it way over priced. When we gave the milk to our daughters they said it tasted funny. When we poured out the carton the milk was spoiled. I just hope my kids don't get sick. Don't waste your money supporting this place. read more

The owner was SO rude. I have never felt more attacked for just asking someone for assistance. Please do NOT spend your money here & go support other local businesses. read more

This would be a 0 star rating. All the beer is OLD and overpriced PLUS the old guy who runs it is a HUGE asshole, I went to ask him for a dog bag and he basically reprimanded me for having my dog in the doorway of "his shop" he went on a power trip about a dog bag because apparently he needs to yell at young women to make himself feel more masculine. This is not the first time that he has given me a hassle there, even when I don't have my dog he gives me dirty looks and condescendingly asks me for an ID before I even approach the counter with my purchase ( i am 25) so if you're a young female I do not recommend buying beer from this mean old man he will probably find something to yell at you about. Oh and hey old fart don't worry, next time I'll leave my dogs shit in front of your store especially for you ;) read more

Horrible shop, old man was so disrespectful, walked out. Theres a better shop up the street. Don't recommend this one.

Old 80 year old man was so rude and giving attitude for absolute no reason. Started interogating me for some odd reason. Ended up kicking me out because "I was giving attitude", absolutely was not the case and proceeded to call me a "f**got" The younger employee is very nice, highly recommend he finds another job, he honestly looked quite embarrassed. Have fun serving alcohol to rich people old freak. Really do not recommend going here, theres a better spot 1 minute up the street. read more

Never written a review in my life and created an account just to write this review. Horrible experience, horrible owner, and horribly overpriced. Save yourself an experience and money and go literally anywhere else. If zero was an option, I'd choose it but I hope any readers don't get persuaded by the "local reviewers" who just get paid off for good reviews. Ski safe and have a great day y'all read more

The owner is so rude. After a 5 hour trek to mammoth in the middle of a snow storm, I took my small crying dog to pee on a tall pile of snow nearby his store and got spoken to so disrespectfully as a result. He came close to my face, told me to get out of there, and to "have some common decency." I looked up the store only to find countless reviews of people saying the exact same thing. Clearly he's not phased by any amount of one star reviews, but please don't give this man your business? It's just insane and dehumanizing to speak to people the way he does. read more

Guy in the there was very rude. Me and my friends went before hitting the mountains to get some mini shots. Before we checked out my friend wanted to add on 2 postcards and he was scoffing at us and literally said "you ladies are difficult" because we wanted to buy postcards??? My friend also didn't hear him when he asked for her ID and she asked him to repeat himself he very rudely said "have you never been asked that" and she apologized and repeated that she didn't hear him and he was still having a horrible attitude. Not how you treat customers we were excited to start our day and we're being very nice to him and he was quite literally mad at that. There's so many liquor stores in mammoth, go to another one. read more

I would not recommend this liquor store to anyone. Earlier in the evening several friends and I stopped by, and upon our arrival the male employee behind the register, mid to late 50s, was extremely antagonist and disrespectful to both us and another female employee of the store. When initially entering the store he was aggressively shouting at a younger female employee for not doing a task correctly. His language was expletive and hostile. While shouting at her he called her names such as, "dumb**s", "stupid", etc. She appeared extremely humiliated and uncomfortable by his behavior. Moments later my friend unintentionally knocked over a hat she was browsing for purchase and before she could apologize he began yelling at her with a similar hostility and aggressiveness he had previously directed at the younger female employee. He asserted that we were "the problem of America!". When I asked if he was the owner, he yelled, "Yeah, I am! what are you gonna do about it!? I've been running this store since before you were born!!! Let's see you try and do something!!!" My friends and I completed our transaction and promptly left without further involvement. Not only was his behavior towards us extremely unprofessional and unfounded, but his previous treatment towards the young female employee was that of great disrespect and mistreatment. I have no interest in supporting his business. read more

The guy working the counter is very rude and unhelpful. I don't recommend going here. There is a much better liquor store up the block.

Sure this place doesn't look like much on the outside, but do you know you have just stumbled upon the home of "200 BEERS"?? While up in Mammoth with my boyfriend we decided to have a little season premiere of "Mad Men" beer and snacks party (of two, I might add), so we checked out Mammoth Liquor to see just what "200 beers" is all about. We didn't count every beer, but there were a lot, so I'm going to go ahead and say this place is legit. They have beers from all over the globe, domestic, and local brews. My beau and I were particularly excited about their awesome selection of Rogue beers, and so were the bros who came in before us. Try the Rogue with the cute little sea otter on it... so cute, AND delicious! read more

Great service. Excellent prices. Amazing beer selection. Phenomenal at special orders. Mammoth Liquors advertises the largest beer selection in the area. I believe. I've special ordered exotic foreign whiskeys and vodkas and Mammoth Liquors got them quickly at great prices. If you want beer, wine, or spirits, shop Mammoth Liquors first! read more

Fantastic selection of beers. Not what you would expect when you come to a little bit smaller town. Since I am staying at the hostel and wanted individual beers, it was great to be able to pick different ones that I wanted without having to get a six pack. On top of that, the prices for many of the beers are great. Got a few 8% beers for $4.90. Can't beat that. Underrated aspect of this liquor store too is their strong magnet selection, and while some complain about grumpy staff, everyone I met has been pretty friendly. read more

Never been here.................yet, but anyplace that offers over 200 beers for sale, is okay in my book!!! read more

I walked into this place and was immediately hit with disgust at the way the guy behind the counter treated the lady in front of me who was happily buying overpriced alcohol. He would probably tell you that he "has a unique sense of humor" but he's just a jerk who is too lazy to "deal" with anyone's questions. Avoid this place and find another store in the area if you can. read more

Last year I came to Mammoth this guy was drinking behind the counter (I'm assuming the owner). This year he was a total jackass, he threw my change back at me and then told my brother in Law to hurry up and get out after he just spent $40 on beer. read more
