I've only been here once and it was brief but I'd come again. I was looking for a specific burbon…read moreand the first shop (which was actually much closer and convenient) just gave off a bad vibe. I walked in and didn't feel comfortable spending my money there or just being there in general. So I called this place and the person on the line was friendly enough, let me know what I was looking for was there and was kind enough to even check the price for me. When I got there I was able to meet and thank her in person. The place had a nice feel, good vibes plus I didn't feel like I'd end up on the Next 48 or anything. Nothing out of the ordinary was done, just kindness, and good customer service. Sooo, in the future if I'm in the area and I need to pick up any wine, etc. I would definitely come or call here first.

We moved to the Upper West Side a little over a year ago, and despite this not being our closest…read morewine/liquor shop, we always walk the extra distance for the amazing selection and customer service. I love the tags throughout the store that give more info on the vineyards and their ownership. I want to give a special shout out to Amanda (who I assume is a manager), who always has such brilliant recommendations and a wonderful depth of knowledge about not only the stock, but also the wider industry. Her recent tasting event showcasing female-owned distilleries was such a thoughtful highlight to happen upon, and introduced us to Harridan Vodka, which we bought a bottle of on the spot. What a gem!

I love that this store has changed ownership and stepped into the modern era with a beautiful new…read morewine-chilling unit, but this review is really about Michael--a gentleman who has somehow survived multiple iterations of ownership and remains, quite simply, one of the best things about the place. Michael makes placing an order genuinely enjoyable. He has that increasingly rare ability to make you feel not merely like a customer, but like a valued one. There is a warmth, class, and old-school graciousness about him that you simply don't encounter very often anymore. He remembers, he engages, he is accommodating, and he understands hospitality in a way that cannot be taught from a training manual. I truly appreciate him, and I sincerely hope the new owners recognize what they have in Michael and do everything possible to keep him there. Employees like him are not interchangeable; they are the reason customers develop loyalty to a business in the first place. And if anyone thinks they're simply going to find someone better than Michael, I have news for them: good luck with that! He is an absolute gem.

I went into Columbus Avenue Wine & Spirits today looking for a couple of bottles of Chardonnay for…read morea dinner I'm hosting. Before I could finish explaining what I needed, the sales assistant cut me off and said he doesn't drink Chardonnay, then started pushing a different wine he personally preferred. I told him I wasn't interested in his personal taste and just wanted a Chardonnay. He responded rudely, saying he couldn't help me because he doesn't like or drink that wine, then just walked off and left me standing in the aisle. A wine shop employee should have broad product knowledge regardless of personal preference. Refusing to help a customer because a wine isn't to your own taste is unprofessional, and the attitude made it worse. I left without the bottles I came in for and won't be going back.

I've never spent over $20 for a bottle of wine there and I've never been disappointed. The place is TINY but the staff is a lot of fun, always ready for a selection or just a conversation.

While the selection is limited, the range is pretty wide! I've been here a handful of times and…read moreI've spend anywhere from $17 to 28 on a bottle of wine. They have detailed placards above each name, which are quite helpful for the average wine drinker--assuming you know what you want. If you require a little help with deciding, it's rare that there's a ton of customers inside that might stop someone from checking in with you either way. In other words, this place makes it easy to stop in with an open or decisive mind and buy a bottle or two on a Friday night.
