There's an attendant working at the front where the self check out kiosks were. One for card only, the other for cash and card.

It's in walking distance (about a 7 minute stroll) from the Denver Sheridan and there are trolleys available that run along the street. For it being in a busy area with a lot of foot traffic it was decently organized. It's not the widest of stores but it stretches decently far back. There are travel size items, a souvenir aisle with mugs and shirts etc and then your usual pharmacy related items. I don't remember seeing a ton of items behind locked doors. There's a decent amount of end caps items and even a clearance section. When I came on a Tuesday afternoon around 4pm the cashiers were on the floor cleaning and restocking so it was all self check out. There were about 4 self check out stands.

The owners and employees are the most welcoming and friendly staff. Here's what you should know: They are the closest liquor store to downtown apartment area. Supply & demand = more expensive prices. If you want cheapest prices in Denver then walk/drive 1.5 miles to a cheap liquor store. Otherwise you get what you pay for If you treat the staff with respect, they will welcome you with open arms. Due to convenience of location and friendliness of staff, I will gladly spend an extra ~$2 on their products than going to any other liquor store in Denver. Sincerely, a 3 year loyal patron read more

I gave the man my information and application several times, but this time I went in to check up on things, he explained to me that he will not hire me because I am a woman. Now, I really wish that I had recorded that entire conversation, but I was so shocked that I left in tears actually. He explained to me like a child how I should apply at King Soopers because that's where they hire women I have been a customer here for years, and this man had never seemed as though he would discriminate, but I am spending money there so why would he. Either way, please cease to support this company and this man. I am not a disgruntled person or ex employee, just a person who was looking for a job only to be actually told he will not hire me because I'm a woman. Please, take these words to heart. There a several liquor stores nearby that would be a much better choice because we should not be giving our hard earned money to a company that discriminates. I am taking legal action immediately. Be kind and most of all, be aware. Many folks are struggling right now and to be turned down that way, leaving so upset, left me very aware of who I have been supporting for several years. Thanks for your time. I wish I could have left no stars at all. This one star goes to the employees which have been all men, track record for female employees is zero by the way, aside from the owner whom you can catch during the day from opening to mid afternoon, I have had wonderful service. It's too bad I wasn't able to join the team.

MUST VISIT SPIRIT DESTINATION IN DENVER!!!!!…read more I don't leave many Yelp reviews, if any, but felt compelled to do one after my visit here. This is, hands down, one of the better stores I have ever been in from a spirit point of view. Whiskey is my jam, but the allocations that were out across the board were stunning tbh. I was in town for a wedding and randomly decided to drop in. Every employee was wonderful - experienced and friendly. I had a great whiskey convo with a gentleman with an epic mustache and each employee was just as friendly and knowledgable as the last. Having been collecting for years now, I try to gravitate towards single barrel selections - a great way to get a twist on a known taste/profile. I was guided towards pick, after pick, after pick. I ended up walking away with 4 store picks - and they are all delicious (2 of which are arguably the best of that brand I've ever had). Sufficient to say I will be back, I will most likely prioritize a stop next time I'm in Denver (I'm based in Chicago). I cannot recommend this place enough in terms of product and overall experience in the store. I've had my fair share of barrel picks and given the quality and consistency of the ones I've had from there, I can tell their pick team/process is absolutely top tier. MUST STOP destination in Denver!!!!

The liquor store at 22nd and Downing, formerly known as Downing Street Liquors, has seriously…read moredeclined under the new ownership. The store is often not open during its posted hours. The owners randomly open and close whenever they choose, and in the last two weeks I have personally had to call them because delivery trucks were waiting outside for hours while the store was supposed to be open. Inside, the store is cluttered, disorganized, and in my opinion a safety hazard. They rarely stock the store properly, leaving products in boxes so customers have to dig around to find what they need. The store is rarely clean, organized, or welcoming. They have expanded into chips and other food items, but I have seen serious sanitation concerns, including food items that appeared to have been damaged by mice. Customer service is poor. Staff have ignored customers at the register while talking on the phone. I have also seen people asleep in the store, which makes the business feel poorly managed and unsafe. There have also been public arguments and fights involving the owners, both inside the store and outside on the street. Between the disorder, theft concerns, break-ins, arguments, and unsafe conditions, this store has become a danger and burden to the City Park West community. The former owners treated people with respect. They supported the neighborhood, gave birthday gifts to customers, participated in community programs, and were seen by many of us as family. The new owners do not provide that same care, respect, cleanliness, safety, or community support. Many people in City Park West have already stopped shopping there. Those who can go to other liquor stores should consider doing so. Unfortunately, some elderly neighbors and people without transportation do not have that option, and this store is taking advantage of its convenient location while giving little or nothing back to the community. City Park West deserves better. We need businesses that respect the neighborhood, keep clean and safe stores, honor posted hours, treat customers with dignity, and contribute to the community -- not businesses that simply take money out of it. #DenverCodeViolations #DenverFireDepartmentDistrict6 #DenverHealthDepartment #NotInOurCommunity #CityParkWest
