Probably my favorite places to visit. The owners is always there to answer questions and give advise on brewing and making wine. I was able to buy the yeast, buckets, cornmeal, oats and equipment needed to make my own beer and wine. Not only that bit it's fun to go there. You will see wine being made, magazines that showcase wine trends- if your love for food and great wine and beer is something you have deep on your bones - this store gives opportunity to be creative and learn from making as well as get what you need. read more

Arsenal Wines & Liquors Depot

I have shopped at Arsenal Wine and Liquor for over a decade. Within the last year, I have run into…read moreproblems with deliveries and employees. It isn't bad enough that their deliveries are always a problem but their employees are very unhelpful. If I didn't want one particular spirit that only they sell, I would not shop there. Let me give you the rundown. Everytime I order a delivery, something is always wrong. At -10 degrees, I don't want to go out to shop in store or do a pickup. So, I ordered a delivery. When it was half an hour after it was scheduled to be delivered and still had not shown up, I called. The employee who answered the phone told me that it was ready for pickup. I told him that I had paid for delivery. We went back and forth for a while before he decided to check with another employee. He was told that it was a delivery order. Then, he told me that no one was available to deliver it at that time. By the time I received the order, it was over an hour late. Good thing it was nothing that I needed right away. Prior to this, I had tried to use the free delivery offer that I received in my email. When I started to checkout, it showed that I had to pay for delivery. I called the store to ask about this issue. The employee I spoke with told me that they could not do anything about the delivery charge because it was offered through a different company. That was it. Tough luck. We lied. We don't care. We just collect the money. At this point, I want to reach out to tell others how bad the service at Arsenal Wine and Liquor is. Personally, I will start looking for other stores that might have a different spirit that I don't mind even if I can't buy the one that I really want. So, good luck with deliveries from Arsenal Wine & Liquor. Good luck finding any helpful employees. Don't expect much because you will not get much. Yes, I will be writing reviews about City Hive, the delivery company, at Trustpilot and Sitejabber.

Big selection, helpful staff, prices are a little high on some products but over all good.read more

The establishment its self was pretty neat looking. Small building with a drive-thru on either side of it. It was very easy to place an online order. Once we were there, the staff was pleasant, and our order was already ready. I am a sparkling water lover, and the Spa Day (strawberry, watermelon, and kiwi) sounded like a combination I would really like. To my dismay I was sadly disappointed. The drink had no real flavor to it, with minimal carbonation. The only real flavor that came through was an unpleasant after taste that I couldn't really make out the taste of. My drink was also mainly ice with a small amount of liquid. I will say the price of the drinks was very reasonable. My wife and I were able to get two of their larger sized drinks for just over $8. I would say I would try this establishment again in the future, but will probably try a different drink.
