Thank goodness for the wine source this holiday season. I'm sober but hosting for everyone is so easy and wine source makes it a one stop shop. I love their charcuterie selection, they have a massive wine selection, but also a large N/A selection too! I'm super grateful for their diverse selection read more

From wine to spirits to beer, I almost always find what I want. If they don't have it, they get it. A very eclectic selection. I often come up up with obscure requests, things perhaps I have seen abroad, and, lo and behold, they have what I am looking fo. I find the checkout staff to be friendly and helpful. Nice little speciality food section to boot. Great place! read more

Good wine selection. Some parking. They offered someone to carry out my box which most liquor stores don't do anymore

Wine and spirits store. Great selection of all different sizes of each product. Not just one or 2 sizes of bottles. Better prices than too anything west of store in upscale Roland Park were many dollars more for the same products. Travel east and south towards Charles street and same lower prices as here. But this store is in a better neighborhood. Big store with a huge variety that the others around can't hold a candle to. Also they actually answer their phone! Of the 12 stores I called half never answered their phone and guess what? Their voicemail was full too. These no answer stores need to put down the bottle and actually answer their phone! read more

Obsessed with this wine store. It's approachable but still hits the hipster bougie vibe with a wonderful selection of natural wines and as far as I know the only carrier of Hana Makgeoli (a wonderful Brooklyn maker of a lovely Korean rice wine). There's a chiller here to chill your wine and a lovely deli with a good selection of cheese and meats. My friend and I recently tried a coffee soda which was a take on a coffee Arnold Palmer which I ended up enjoying. I most recently went for a tasting with a distributor and bought three wines! The staff is super knowledgeable and friendly - they also have boxes to help in your purchase! I make the drive to come to The Wine Source - it's always a good time. read more

If the Wine Source in Hampden doesn't have what you're looking for, you're probably not going to find it. Their selection is extraordinary. I came in looking for an oddly specific Dominican rum for a buddy's birthday. The knowledgeable staff member found it in less than a minute. It was amazing. They also sell charcuterie accoutrements to boot. The Wine Source is more than a liquor store--it's an experience. read more

The selection of wine is excellent. The cashiers tend to be rude and arrogant, e.g., not talking to customers (beyond asking, "Do you want a bag") acting as if they don't believe in utilizing basic social interaction skills ... like, "Hello how are you?" or "Have a nice day." read more

My experience at the The Wine Source was wonderful for the moment I stepped in the door. They have a huge selection of wines that I am sure would satisfy everyone's needs. The people were attentive and immediately asked if we needed assistance when we entered. The greatest part about it was that I saw two dogs in store. I truly believe every place is better when it's pet friendly. Great experience at the Wine Source and I will go back for all my wine needs in the future. read more

Awesome selection of beers, wines and spirits to choose from, and the staff is excellent for assistance as well as knowledge. Very easy to get around in the store in finding what you want. read more

I love the Wine Source. Lots of organic wine options and craft beers I've never heard or tried in my entire life. Plenty of the name brands wine, liquor and beer but be sure to check out the not so named brands. Also be sure to check out the market area which features breads, cheeses, mustards, jams, pickled veggies, etc, anything you need to accompany your at home bar and cocktails. A few times I've stopped in right before closing and they've given out free loads of bread! And they are GOOD!! read more

Hands down the best liquor store in the Hampden area! You want wine? Done. You want cheese? Done. You want good customer service? Triple done. But seriously, The Wine Source has a great selection of wine, liquor, beer, etc. You can also find a ton of yummy snacks in their "deli" section for making charcuterie boards or assembling a picnic. It's pretty much a one stop shop for a solid night in. I'm a big fan of their sale section where they feature a rotating selection of wines at generous prices. I've even found some new favorites thanks to that sale section! Not only is the selection good, but their staff makes a point to check on you, say hi, or steer you in the right direction if need be. I was once looking for a specific bottle of wine and called ahead to see if it was in stock and the person on the phone was a huge help. I definitely recommend The Wine Source for all your libation needs! read more

This is the one stop place for the best booze selection in Baltimore. Sour beers, natural wine, Natty Ice, and cheese. They got it all. The staff is knowledgeable, friendly, and provide great service. read more

We just moved to Baltimore and Hampden, and we stopped in at the Wine Source to get familiar with the store. I was expecting just a small wine neighborhood wine shop, but the Wine Source is so much more than that! The selection of spirits/liquor, wine, beer, and mixers was so much more than I was expecting! From amaros to sakes to rums - they had such an amazing selection. Then basically a wall of beer...! And so much wine! (They even have a small natural wine wall.) Then on top of all that, they have a small food section - everything you need to make a great charcuterie board to go with your wine basically: cheeses, meats, olives, oils, bread, pasta, ... and more! This store is so much more than I expected. I will definitely be back. I fell in love at first visit. read more

I've been the this establishment 2x, once a few years ago, and the second time this past Sunday. I wandered in with a friend who was seeking a bottle of wine. Her knowing me, however, she directed me to the beers on the last aisle. There I found a great selection and variety of local brews, country-wide brews, and the usual crappy light beers. There's a fridge full of individual beers that I kinda lost my mind at. They had a bunch of different flavors of the Dewey Secret Machine sours and I bought them all! I wandered down the aisle more, but couldn't find other beers I wanted more than the 5 cradled in my arms. Checkout was a breeze and the cashier gave me a nickel at the end of the transaction. Not sure what that was about, but I'll take it. I don't live in Hampden, but dig that place. Maybe instead of bringing drinks with me when I visit my friends who live in that area (1x a week, usually), I'll see what The Wine Source has to offer. And if it's just more Dewey Secret Machines, I'll be 1,000% good with it! read more

A fabulous place for all your wine, beer, and liquor needs! They even offer a variety of different bitters. Furthermore, with their gourmet food selection, you won't go hungry, either. read more

I've been here several times with friends, and every experience has been great! Not only is the customer service fantastic (very attentive, willing to check in on you, knowledgeable staff, etc), they have a nice variety of liquor and wines that are easy to find in the shop based on region. Additionally, they sell limes and lemons at the register which if you've ever had a few friends over for drinks, you tend to prioritize the alcohol and forget the limes/lemons. It's always a duh moment for me but because they have them right at the register, it's easy to remember. What I think I like most about The Wine Source is how honest staff are about their thoughts on different wines. If they don't like it, they'll tell you and have enough knowledge to even recommend something based on your tastes. Lot parking can be a little scarce sometimes but that's really out of their control and usually street parking is easy to find in the area. In short, would highly recommend! My friend (who's the wine guy for sure) loves it here and says it's one of the best wine spots in Baltimore to him. P.S. They also sell some food in the shop which I haven't tried yet but I'm sure it's good! read more

The Wine Source is really the source for all things delicious! In addition to a great variety of wine, you can also pick up craft beers (and "regular" beers too), any spirits I've been looking for I've found, AND a great variety of cheese, meats, chocolate, jam, crackers, breads, and they have citrus.... it's the only stop you need to throw yourself a happy hour or full blown party! In addition to the selection, let's talk about the staff. I have never been to the store and not been offered help finding what I need or assistance to my car. They are always friendly and helpful! COVID protocol seems solid, people are always masked and they have marked areas to help avoid close contact with other shoppers. 5/5 all day! read more

Best selection in Baltimore in my experience, with a wide variety that you can't find in other places. Prices are on par. People who work there are helpful and friendly. I travel from Fells Point to buy my booze here especially when I want to buy something I've heard about online. read more

The Wine Source - the entrance to the winery - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

Open 7 days a week. Very friendly team members. There are always at least three registers working. They have a little section off to the side with cheese, olives and other delicious snacks that go with wine and spirits. Extremely broad selection of items from sake to wine to vodka, ready made cocktails, beer and more! Doesn't have a dedicated Kosher section but has endless options for adult beverages. Parking can be tricky. There is a small lot in front and then shared parking at the Royal Farms parking lot but otherwise street parking is available but is usually pretty tough. read more

Probably the best liquor store in the DMV. I am a bartender who specializes in pre prohibition, "milk and honey" style bartending where instead of concocting tedious, fad cocktails with random plant (and sometimes animal) matter we focus on quality products, ratios, and techniques. My home bar is unabashedly lit especially after covid. To set up a solid bar you need a variety of spirits and liqueurs and the run of the mill ABC store in the area only has common bottles or they're overpriced as hell. I have found the selection here to not only have the breadth I desire for my home bar (quite the amaro selection!) but at competitive prices that rival state ABC stores. No you're not going to find blantons or pappy here (there are better stores for whiskey buffs) but you want to throw a cocktail party and need a few products? This is one stop shopping. Frankly it's better than bitters and bottles in San Francisco, but not quite as good as Astor's in New York but you're paying half the rent here so I think that's a quality compromise. If anything it would be nice if they had a little selection of commercial quality barware and nice glassware from cocktail kingdom and the likes so I don't have to pay for shipping. (Also with trohv gone, we need a place for fancy cocktail Knick knacks!) read more

Great city liquor / wine / beer / seltzer store. Great selection, great prices lower than a lot of the surrounding areas, and very helpful staff. Definitely recommend! read more

OK, it's called The Wine Source, but don't forget about the beer and liquor. This place has a great selection of everything, and the prices are reasonable, too. I came in looking for some interesting beers to try, and I wound up bringing home some outstanding brews that were on sale. You get great service here, too. One cashier even recognized my Toynbee Tiles t-shirt! Three cheers for independently-run liquor stores like The Wine Source. read more

I enjoy going here, they have an extensive selection of champagnes and wines. The staff is always very helpful and friendly.

5 stars for this wine & et. al shop in the heart of Hamden. I walked in looking for a Saturday night beer. The selection that I found is astounding. They have something like 14 fridge doors of beer on display - sure to satisfy any taste. Milk stouts, gose, red ales, sours, heffewizzen, hazy ipas and more! Plenty for of MD pride and MD brewers, national distributors and foreign imports. But if you're looking for something more mass-produced they also save some shelf space for the Miller Lites and Dogfish ales. Prices will range from $10 for a 6-pack to $16 for a 4-pack. There's also a beer counter where you can order draughts by the glass. If you're looking for other alcohol, there are isles worth of variety for bourbons, vodka, wines, etc. I'd be surprised if you didn't find what you were looking for or a reason to substitute. Great place, it feeds this humans bougie-craft brew sour-loving soul. read more

After seven years in the neighborhood, I'm convinced this is the best booze store in Baltimore. Bless this place. Only bummer is the parking mess the Source attracts during the holidays. Wish there was a way to discourage drivers from spilling out onto Elm while they foolishly wait for one of the half-dozen or so spaces in the lot. read more

Large selection of wines and spirits not to mention friendly staff, an excellent service!

Amazing selection knowledgeable staff.... highly recommended for the freshest Beer... and they also Carried my wife's favorite wine. CHEERS read more

Wow! My experience at the Wine Source was awesome! I made a mini pit-stop here to grab some wine gifts. Bridget, one of the knowledgeable employees on the floor, was readily available and was able to recommend lovely options! She was extremely detailed and she definitely knew what she was talking about! I was super duper impressed! :D This place was packed, and it seems to be a favorite spot for the locals to come in and get some cheeses (the scent does kind of hit you when you enter the premise) and liquor to stock up on. They offer greatly-organized sections of spirits, sake/shochu, wines, beer, and even a section in cheese/chocolates/specialty foods as well as gift sets and books/accessories. You can also check out their website for in-store events (such as tastings). There is a small lot, but it is usually packed; there are metered parking around the area, but it is a little tight and usually unavailable - I highly recommend in you coming with someone where they can drive around the block so that you can pop in and out with your purchases. +ask for Bridget - she is AWESOME!!! :D read more

Great selection! They have so many unique offerings and a very helpful staff. There's a small parking lot and then street parking but usually it's not too hard to get a spot close by. If you're looking for something specific this is a great place to check! read more

I was looking for stuff to make a lemon drop and ended up spending about $80 in alcohol. Not only is it nice and clean but the employees are SO nice and helpful & friendly. I'm not a heavy drinker but I promise to keep them in mind for all my wine and alcohol needs and recommendations! read more

Huge wine selection as well as tastings and (helpful and knowledgeable) employees around every corner! A great place to grab wine. There's a wine fridge in the back left if you're getting a white! Also, a decent hard liquor selection and a few selections on sale. Note: street parking only read more

Wide variety of spirits, wine, & beer. I love Abita and this is the only place near Baltimore that sells it or continuously has it in stock. Want a magnum size bottle of wine-- they have a ton to choose from! Not to mention the tastings or cheese selection *yum* Exceptional customer service overall a great business. I drive 20 mins one way just to stock up here ;) read more

Visited The Wine Source for the first time today, upon a friend's recommendation and I was very impressed with the wide selection, especially the fact that they carry the best selection of Rogue beers east of the Mississippi! I can't speak to where they fall on the map in regards to price, as I have only visited a handful of wine sellers in Baltimore, but I can say I found exactly what I was looking for in regards to wine and beer. The selection alone is well worth a visit. They also have a small selection of wine accessories, cheese, charcuterie, and they will gladly box up your selections for your carrying ease. read more

Called ahead to see if they had something specific in stock and they said yes it's here come on down. I drove 20 minutes to get here to be told that it's for private customers only and they can't sell it to me. read more

I LOVE this spot! They have wonderful selections of organic and natural wines. The service is incredible. Everyone is so friendly and helpful. Also very knowledgeable. You can tell they really take pride in what they do. They will never disappoint! read more

Everybody talks up this place...such a great "Beer" selection...I can say they have alot to choose from, but the most important part of a Beer store for me is the selection of singles. And this is where it lacks...the thing is that they have room to make such a great singles aisle, but they aren't taking advantage of it. Missing out in the extra revenue in not having this feature Think of it this way...a typical craft beer 6 pack costs $10.00...if you break it down to singles and charge $2.00 each, that's a $2.00 per 6 pack bonus/$8.00 per case... Wine selection is great, along with the alcohols. Artisan cheese adds to the plus's. Staff is somewhat lost in beer info...They steer you in the right direction, but that's basically it. Parking sucks... Overall a good place, but still not awesome. read more

The Wine Source is my go to spot to grab alcohol in Hampden! They have decent prices and a large variety of wine, liquor, and beer! I can find what I'm looking for all the time. I especially enjoy the wine display they rotate in the front of the store where they offer discounted wines. I've picked out a few unknown wines from there and I've enjoyed them all! Wine Source also offers charcuterie and even has a small bar that provides beer tastings. For many locals, wine source is actually a great hang out spot! read more

Ok, Wine Source, you win. Despite your insane parking situation, I cannot helped but be swayed by the incredible customer service and selection. Although I have been to the Wine Source on multiple occasions, it was during the Christmas rush that I really grew to appreciate the Wine Source. Close to my house, I needed about 20 bottles of wine for Christmas gifts for colleagues. I decided to skip their small parking lot, and scored parking not too far (on the street). Utilizing the shopping carts they have, I located a wonderful sales lady who I gave free reign to picking out bottles for me within my price range. She found me a huge assortment of reasonably priced wines that she loved. Although the store was jammed packed with patrons who were doing the same thing as me, the registers were staffed adequately, and there was a minimal wait. They even offered to help me to the car with the boxes. Wins all around read more

I was headed to an event in the area and needed to quickly grab a bottle of wine. I was greeted as soon as I walked in and give an amazing amount of help. I told the lady the type of event, the type of food, wine I normally like and my price point. With those four items she walked me right over to a bottle and I blindly took her recommendation, well I have found a new favorite Pinot Noir! The parking for this place sucks but it's Hamden so I don't expect much more. Overall I will be back to see what else they have to offer. read more

Awesome liquor store if you're looking for the more obscure things. Located in the heart of Hampden MD. They have a VERY small parking lot (maybe about 5-6 spots). Prices are average, about what you would except at any liquor store. They have a large selection of liquors, beers, and wines from all over the world. This place is not as big as Total Wine but they still have a huge inventory. They also have bar supplies (mixers, jiggers, etc) bitters (which I recently learned is in a lot of fancier cocktails) and drink mixers (sodas, fruit juices, etc). Every aspiring bartender or just someone who loves a good happy hour will enjoy and find what you need here. read more
