Best part ......it's curated so well ! It just feels like a wine store should. I live in Waukegan, so I don't get into the store as often as I'd like to, but when in Chicago, I try to get in, and see what is new on the shelves. Never leave empty handed !

Also other junk food items, but there ain't a huge selection; just mostly chips! I've also bought frozen foods from here, but it's a little pricey! Of course this place is stacked with wine, beer, nicotine, and all that other nice stuff to help people forget about life stressor's, but not my thing. I rarely visit, unless i park in the area and just so happen to be craving ice cream. This is one of our neighborhood liquor stores that sits right outside of CTA Thorndale; also not to far of a walk from Broadway St.

Really tired of businesses exploiting customers in the name of the pandemic. Bought a $1.99 soda…read morethat cost me $2.75. Why? They tack on a $0.50 service fee to all transactions. That was 25% of my purchase! It's not the money, it's the principal. If the business owners "need" the money, just raise prices and be transparent about it. Allow customers to decide for themselves. This is covert and straight up exploitation.

Terrible Customer Service - Avoid This place…read more I've never felt so unwelcome in a store before. All I did was open the fridge **twice** because I wasn't sure what I wanted, and the staff acted like I committed a crime. One of the employees got visibly annoyed and made a snarky comment about me letting the "cold air out." Seriously? If you're that worried about your beer getting slightly less cold for **two seconds**, maybe you shouldn't be running a liquor store where customers need to **see their options** before buying. The attitude was horrible--no patience, no understanding, just pure rudeness. There are plenty of other places that actually appreciate their customers and don't treat them like an inconvenience for daring to browse. Save yourself the hassle and take your business elsewhere. **Zero stars if I could.**

Terrible customer service. Immediately after entering I was stared down by the female cashier and…read moreby the older white man, who continued to stare me down while looking through the products. While looking at the fridges, I was approached in an extremely rude manner by the older white man. He got in my face without any introduction and used a snarky tone to tell me that "if I leave the door open like that Im going to let all of the cold air out". Mind you I had been looking for less than 5 minutes. I tell him I was trying to read the labels on the drinks to make a purchase and he continues to push back on me and tried to lead me to another part of the store in which I decided to leave due to feeling extremely uncomfortable and disrespected as an adult. I saw another reviewer say they had the same experience with the fridges so this is clearly a pattern. It was a truly weird and condescending experience.

Although I'm not sure of their employee conditions for being open on a major national holiday, they did come in clutch when my friends and I decided to grab some alcohol for our post-Christmas celebrations. The man at the cashier was very, very nice and joked along with my friend and I as we were checking out! As far as the alcohol selection goes, it's pretty vast and they sell other things like hygiene products, soda, and snacks without having outrageously marked up prices.
