Park Avenue in Rutherford is full of amazing restaurants, many of which are BYOB, so having a…read moreliquor store nearby is key. Village Wines is right in the middle of things, so it is super convenient for these instances. It might not look like anything too fancy, but their selection is top notch! The store is a bit haphazardly arranged, but the prices are reasonable and the variety is vast. I would definitely recommend checking it out if you are in the area and in need of something for a dinner or another occasion.

This store is a gem for a variety of reasons. I appreciate its location, as it is central to most…read moreplaces you would eat at on Park Avenue. This makes it very convenient for BYOB. The store is clean and well-stocked. Wooden shelves align the walls and display the various wines and spirits. The selection as far as my interests go is quite good. Numerous less-common bourbons can be found here, and for fair prices. Finally, where the place really shines is the owner. He is absolutely wonderful in every way. He is pleasant, courteous, kind, and helpful and will strike up friendly conversation with his customers. He will even try to procure various items for you that he doesn't have in stock. This nice touch keeps me coming back.

Simply Awful display on part of management, to let a young girl be verbally assaulted like that, not to mention letting the probably drunk person spew germs all over. Girl left crying, management didn't seem to care less. Really disappointed they would let someone be treated this way in their store. Just went there bc it was next to stop n shop. Nothing special about the place. Can easily go somewhere else and will encourage everyone I know to, too. I don't like to give bad reviews. The only time I do is when people get treated badly. This qualifies.

Raise your hand if you remember when Mason's was a few blocks down, inside of a converted bank -…read morewhere they'd have cool special events (like wine tastings) taking place in the old vaults from time to time. The odd thing about the current location: as you walk in it seems like a lot of the shelves are kind of empty ("Hey, maybe they're going out of business?") but then you start to take a slow stroll down the aisles and realize they have a ridiculous amount of (quality) stuff. Beers, wines, and liqueurs that you probably haven't seen or heard of before. The pricing is on par for competing liquor stores. They have a (awkward) parking lot which can be a lifesaver in this part of town. If you forced me to Sophie's Choice I'd say Rutherford Wine Shoppe is the overall better place (I mean... Mason's opening an hour later than RWS is the sole reason I don't get over this way that much) but Mason's is a damn fine spot for sure. Na zdrowie!

One time asked the male owner if he had more of a certain beer and he replied "I don't think so" and left it at that. His wife knew that was the wrong answer, got up and checked in the Fridge and came out with a four pack. The helpers they have are the same way. If you can't find it, they will not check for you. I rarely stop in anymore.

If you want to pay Manhattan prices in the midst of the splendor and glory that is East Rutherford…read moreNJ, this is the place for you. The selection was poor for a store this size. More importantly, the guy running the store was super rude. He didn't want to get off his phone to ring anyone up. He got short with someone who simply asked if he had a specific beer, saying that he was closing the store an hour early and wanted to get out, all while another customer was waiting at the counter for an extended duration. So glad I had enough bourbon with me in my hotel room that I didn't need to spend more than 2.5X the retail cost for a halfway decent bottle. Gives me enough time to go to another store that isn't going to try to price gouge.

I have been coming to this store for some time basically since they opened. Yesterday I went into…read morethe store and bought some wine, mixers, white claws, and some ice. My bill was around 50 dollars. I then paid with a DEBIT card - PIN number used. The store charged 75 cents for using my card. I will NEVER again shop at this second rate wine shop. Buyers need to send a message to retailers that it's the retailers responsibility to handle incoming expenses and not to just pass extra fees to clients. The store clerk did not explain to me that there was a fee for using a debit card. I did not notice a sign saying that there would be a fee.
