So where do you go to buy all those obscure bottles of beer that you've always dreamed of owning:…read moreThe bottle shop of course. Great selection of beer that can be brought to take away or drunk on premises. The venue itself is under the archways and hasn't much atmosphere, being literally a warehouse, but who cares with all this fabulous beer about? I came here a week ago for the last Yelp event, and as it's on my doorstep I felt that I should return with a visiting friend. I went for the American Beaverton Black IPA which is absolutely wonderful, a good morning with good conversation. A perfect addition to the rope walks 'area of culinary delights'

This place could also be called 'Bourbon Trail Whiskies', or 'Gin 'R Us' such that it has a fairly…read moredecent selection of both. I was lured into the shop one evening this week by a bottle of rye in the window. -turns out that that was the last rye in house, so I scooped it up. Bourbon was not in short supply, fortunately, so I helped myself to a bottle of Elijah Craig, too. They also carry Buffalo Trace and Woodford. I did not see any Maker's Mark for those of you who love you some Maker's. I would have loved to have seen Blanton's, but beggars can't be choosers. I'm just glad to have found a smattering of good bourbon in this town. SW4, a locally produced gin, was in house as well as Junipero, all the way from foggy San Francisco. They don't, I was told, seem to stock Sipsmith as it seemed to be too costly for them to do so. Bummer. And, as the name would suggest, they do boast quite a lovely selection of single malts. They carry Caol Ila, one of my faves, as well as some of the more usual suspects. -don't get me started on the Asian whiskies. This place is a must-visit destination.

The Grapevine is one of the only independent off licences in our area. It is a real local shop run…read moreby a very friendly couple. They sell a brilliant range of brands as extremely reasonible prices. They are also very helpful and will order in any items that they may not have. They are one of the only shops in Folkestone to sell some items such as Sailor Jerry rum. They also have a good selection of international largers that include many Polish and Czech bands. They have a good selection of real ales, including many from the local area. I would much rather spend my money in this shop than in the local supermarkets as they are very fairly priced and offer fantastic customer service.

Stopped by here randomly to grab a bottle of wine on the way home. Very cool wine shop connected to…read morethe restaurant next door. I hadn't stopped in here, because it doesn't seem that approachable - it certainly projects itself to be a higher end wine shop. That turns out to be true, it is a little more high end feeling - though ultimately the employees were super approachable and very helpful. I think it is a little on the snooty side, but if you are prepared for that - then this is a good shop. Despite the higher end feel, it does appear as though they educate the public that comes in, there are maps of wine regions, the grapes grown in those regions, and advertisements for wine tastings. This is the place that you go in to find a bottle of special wine, something specific or to learn a bit more. It's definitely not a warehouse, and doesn't pretend to be. That said, the prices didn't seem outrageous, just slightly higher than other stores - but given the types of wine and the service, it's worth it.

Personally, I think they've gone a bit overboard with the variety as there are some odd liquers and drinks Ive never heard of before - so I cant imagine the demand is there for this type of product. Lots of reasonably priced beers and wines too though, and they often have offers on. An added plus is you can join their DVD club which does stock up to date titles. They normally only have one of each though, so you would need to get there early to get the newest release. Friendly, family business.
