So I don't know if Yelp is really meant to be used for reviewing liquor stores- but we have enough of them around, so I think it is a super idea.
Paradise Liquor is my favorite party store to frequent in the area near my house- It also happens to be one of the closest.
So- the things I like about Paradise are actually numerous. I'll start with the guys who run the place, they are super friendly. For a while I was kind of a regular, and they made me feel that way. They have helped me carry purchases to my car, and that is important when you buy a lot of beer... it can be hard to carry. An older guy working there one day (maybe the younger guys' dad?, not sure) - did not want us to leave until he found some random free stuff to get us. (We walked away with Red Wings glasses, a t-shirt and a poster- pretty funny and awesome at the same time.) There was an occasion where my husband and I sampled a new liquor at a bar locally, and inquired about it at Paradise. They didn't have it, but said they would order it- and actually did... It was there the next time we stopped in. I appreciate that sort of service.
They have a really good liquor selection here as far as I am concerned. They also carry a fair amount of wine and beer... though they definitely do not have the most exhaustive beer selection in the area... It definitely is )more than adequate on most occasions though. (Even for when I am shopping for a nice variety for 40-grab-bag). They are really helpful whenever I would like to order a keg, and can get just about anything that I want- I do not think they have any kegs in stock (like they used to up at State) - but with a little planning, they will take care of you and at a reasonable price. I've also ordered party subs from there and found them to be tasty, large and consumed rapidly by my guests. They also sell pizza and some other food items.
In summary, when I am having a party at my house- this is my go-to place to make it happen. :) read more
