Small location and high prices. I expected the prices since only the state can sell wine. This…read morelocation does not have a large selection of liquor or wine. The staff is friendly and efficient.

On my fourth visit to SLC I finally got to shop in one of these fabled State Liquor Stores. Unsure…read morewhat to expect, I assumed prices would be marked up to Hell and the selection wouldn't be great compared to what I am used to back home where we can get liquor any ol place. It turns out I was incorrect on both counts. My Utah resident friend is not much into beer, so instead of dragging her to local breweries, I picked up some mix and match cans of local brews here. (Craft beer is mostly singles, more domestic or popular stuff you can get in packs.) I got three of them and one foofoolala watermelon hard lemonade for around $10. What a steal. The beers were Jenny P. beers too, so stouts and a belgian of higher %. I was very happy about the pricing. All of the beers turned out to be bangers, too. I rated them highly on untappd. The store layout was in nearly thirds, one each for beer, liquor, and wine. A good portion of the beer section was seltzers and foofoo stuff, but they had a decent selection of actual beer, and half of it was Utah brewed beer. There are people here making it and consuming it, and it's good. Be not afraid. I got a kick out of the warning signs at the entrance. The church government does not want its subjects to consume adult beverages. Hence the whole having to buy alcohol in a specific store run by the govmint. You can also buy beer from breweries just fyi. I get lost trying to keep track of all the rules making it harder to be a degenerate. But I digress, there was also a security guy by the door and everyone buying here gets ID'ed, which is not too different from back home. I found customer service to be just fine, and found what I needed easily. Everything was well organized and again the prices were unbelievable. The yelp listings for these are not always accurate, and I tried to make a new entry for this one with the correct address because it wasn't pulling up for me. Yelp merged it together with another location, but at least the address is correct now. This was the one I went to. There are many in the Salt Lake area. I would come back to sin at the State Liquor store again when I'm in town next time. They are closed on Sunday, shocking.

Every time I come here, I always leave with a wonderful experience!…read more There are a ton of wine and liquor options, but they mostly focus wine. The service is always friendly and helpful. Just like a normal liquor store, I am always nervous to go inside because there are so many glass bottles and I'm worried about bumping into something and crashing the whole wall down. But there are baskets that you can pile your drink choices into, and there is plenty of room to maneuver your basket.

Bad/disrespectful customer service. My girlfriend and I were quietly browsing the store when an…read moreemployee approached us and demanded our IDs before we had even finished shopping. Instead of waiting until checkout like everywhere else, he singled us out and treated us like we were doing something suspicious just for existing in the store. We had zero issue showing ID. We are of legal age and obviously would have presented them at the register when purchasing, like everyone else. The problem was the employee's attitude and obvious assumption that he had "caught" two underage customers. The interaction felt rude, condescending, and completely unnecessary. What made it worse was how public and embarrassing it was. Other customers were around while this guy decided to go on a power trip for no reason. Then, the second he realized we were legal, he disappeared to the back and didn't say another word. No apology, no professionalism, nothing. If employees are going to profile customers and make them feel uncomfortable while shopping, maybe they should at least know how to interact with people respectfully afterward. Completely killed the mood and guaranteed we won't be returning to this location.

State Wine Store - Great selection of wines and higher end liquor products. Plus some microbrews to top it off.

I was at the liquor store around the corner and needed some additional bitters- the employee…read morerecommended this place and it worked out perfectly! This place is coming up on its 10 year anniversary, but I'd never heard of it until now so it's a bit of a hidden gem based on my experience. Service is fine but not as welcoming as you would hope for a boutique like this (no greeting/acknowledgement, no proactively offering to answer questions about their products, etc.). They have a bunch of different bitters flavors and have many opened and available for you to try before purchasing which is awesome. They also have other drink mixes and syrups that are fun additions to cocktails/mocktails. There's also a diverse array of cocktail making kits, garnishes, cups, etc. It's a very eccentric little shop with plenty to browse through. It's perfect for anyone who enjoys making cocktails or needs to find a gift for someone who does. I've pegged it at four stars primarily given pricing...it was $18 for a small 4oz bottle of Angostura Bitters and a small bag of plain white sugar cubes (~20 cubes or so). If I weren't purchasing a last minute gift, I would've taken the time to go elsewhere. Come here if you're looking for unique items, not necessarily if you're looking for value (which is usually the recommendation for boutiques in general).

I went by middle of the day Friday and it was closed. I went because of the good ratings but see…read moreanother review with my same complaint.
