What a great neighborhood liquor store! I may be a bit bias, seeing as it's about 4 minutes from…read moremy house, but besides the convenience, they have a great selection of products. The staff is engaging and very knowledgeable on the wine, beer, and spirits and they have a great selection of hard to find items as well. In the mood for something a little less mainstream? McDonald's Liquor has a nice variety of sake, soju, Asian whiskey's, and plenty of THC friendly drinks to choose from. The newer walk in beer fridge is a great addition as well. The crown on the cake is the rewards membership they offer that is point based. Ask about it, because it's a pretty good deal. Support the small businesses in Minneapolis! Places like McDonald's Liquor, is a great addition to the area, and are good people!

I was already in the neighborhood when I realized I needed a bottle of bourbon for an upcoming…read moreevent. It's no shock that Lake street has a wide variety of options as far as liquor stores go. Based on reviews I chose East Lake and stopped in. As you can imagine it was pretty much empty on a Thursday around 1pm. Other reviews mentioned the great prices, I wouldn't say anything I looked at was a good deal- pretty average pricing if not more. As a reminder, this isn't total wine so if you're looking for cheaper options based on buying in bulk this is not the place. But if you're looking to support a local business and the community then come on over. Staff were friendly and helpful. Didn't seem to mind answering questions or giving recommendations when asked. Checking out was super simple and it was nice to see more customers coming in. I hear the shirts are a hot commodity here, I didn't see them but heard they only have smalls left lol. I'll definitely stop back in when I'm in the area and would recommend checking out.

I was pleased to see items stocked and actually prices a bit lower than the same items in the cities near where I live. I found my item(s) and made my way to the register. As I reached for my license, the cashier asked for a birthday and left it at this (fine with me but not sure as far as proper procedure). She also then made a comment when my card didn't work that "if I am just be patient, it will work" which was not something I want from anyone. I said I appreciated her comment but would prefer more direct instruction and she then helped my card get swiped through and I was on my way. Stocked product at fair prices but staff were not very welcoming or overly friendly.

Vinifera is my neighborhood hook-up for the latest beer releases. It's a tiny place, tucked in the…read morecorner of the strip mall on the southeast side of the 6 & 101 intersection. About two-thirds of the ~750 square feet is dedicated to wine, although I rarely purchase wine here. The remaining space is mostly a large cooler with loads and loads of regional craft beer offerings. Living nearby, I drive past 10-15 times a week. Each and every time I debate whether I really have any more space in my beer fridge for something else. Call it a craft beer addiction if you will, but it's also fun to try different stuff. When I finally succumb to temptation, my usual approach is to stride in, nod to the proprietors (an older couple) or manager (a younger, very beer-savvy drinker), check out the new releases stacked on the left side of the counter, and then park myself in front of the coolers. There is always something new to consider, and I do rely on UnTappd to give me a sense of what may be worth trying. Pricing is a bit higher than what you'll find at the megastores, but selection is more interesting and the product is fresher. Vinifera gets regular shipments from Junkyard, Drekker, Brewing Projekt, Drastic Measures, Oliphant, and other premier microbrewers that you can't always find at your typical mom-and-pop liquor store. They do offer a wine club (nominal pre-pay in exchange for discounts) as well as punch cards for multi-pack beers (free multi-pack after 10 purchases). Every so often you can find discounts in the local adverts. Check 'em out when you're in the western burbs. They are only 5 minutes from the 494/394 interchange.

I didn't agree with Gayle's iphone directions to their house, but drove in that direction anyway. That was a good thing, otherwise we wouldn't have seen the sign directing us to Vinifera Wines and Ales. Both Gayle and I were impressed with the wine selection, which we also found to be reasonably priced and extensive for the relatively small space. I also had a wide range of beer choices and ended up with a very tasty winter ale from Bell's. We also enjoyed the store dog, a shy brown retriever mix named Berkeley.
