Probably the one noticeable shortfall is on the amount and variety of their ultra premium liquors. They have some, but the selection is a tad limited for a store of this size. Having said that, all of your base liquor needs are taken care of in this one stop shopping location.

They had every wine you could choose from. The lady was so nice! She greeted me immediately asked if I needed help I was just in amazement! but I told her I'm just looking around, she said well if you need any help at all please let her know. It was reds, whites rosès etc . There were several rooms in the back and a spin around it was colorful and wine in every section. Beautiful art works which I believe she said it's an art gallery upstairs sometimes I'll have to recheck that. everything was neatly placed, they have Wine tastings, it's pretty cool and a chill vibe here. I'd surely recommend this place especially if you're a wine person.

Of course I called first to the location closest to me. They didn't have it. But, they told me the PY location had it. When I arrived, I was able to easily find help in the form of a team member. She walked with me to make sure I found what I was looking for. I also received additional assistance and recommendations from another team member who was very helpful. He provided great information about the wine I was looking for plus some additional recommendations. Although there is a closer TW&M location, I will be returning to this one because of the positive experience. Happy sipping.

My advice is to drive over the bridge to Maryland and get whatever you like. I complained several times but it doesn't go anywhere because the store is state owned and no one cares enough to offer a Solution or explanation for the situation other than suppliers. If I ran a business like this the competition would run me out of business. Oh that's right they don't have any competition.

Reposting my Google review because there aren't very many recent reviews since UnWined's change in…read moreownership in 2025. TLDR: it's a mess and former customers are concerned. The best word I can use to describe my shopping experience at UnWined as of late is "undignified". I question whether the new owner is actually interested in curating an interesting wine and beer selection for both the novice & educated consumer or if she's just using this storefront as a personal playground with no interest in serving the customers of this established business. In the year since the new owner has taken over, I have seen full-time staff members get fired and replaced with 19 year old part-timers, I have seen the most ridiculous events being advertised that have barely anything to do with wine, and I have seen the most unprofessional behavior happening on the store floor that makes me feel like I'm walking on eggshells (e.i. the owner yelling at customers, flipping out about a broken water heater, getting upset over missing shipments). During the weekends, the entire store feels like a circus with the owner's friends peddling their mediocre goods, and shopping for wine in a relaxed way feels nearly impossible...it's hard to do anything when someone named DJ Thunder Bunny is playing her set, someone is selling you their gluten-free bread in front of the French wine section, and there's a dog adoption drive happening all at the same time. A lot of people, including myself, have just stopped shopping here because it's such an uncomfortable experience now. I hope things change, but I'm not feeling particularly optimistic since the owner has only doubled down on the cringey events. Despite all my negative feedback, I want to give a shoutout to Sparlan. He's a delight to talk to!

Upon entering, it was super spacious and had several huge advertisements from brands... even a huge Moscow Mule cup and a huge purple Kings chair by non other than Crown Royal lol. I got my bottle (pineapple vodka, easy to find) and headed to the register to purchase. At the register I noticed that they had an event listing for the store, events such as free alcohol, can you say win!!! The two guys that were working were really nice and even laughed when I joked about the black guy being named Bic (which wasn't his name but what I thought I heard) it reminded me of Kevin Harts movie where he chose the name Bic Mitchum. Nonetheless, this will be my go to store from now on and I will be lurking so that I can make it to some of those free events lol.

The self-checkout area is a masterclass in frustration. There aren't enough lanes, the systems look like they were installed sometime during the Bush administration, and half of them are usually "temporarily out of service" with paper bags draped over the screens like little brown tombstones. The line regularly stretches toward the back of the store, so forget "quick trip." The few seasoned employees who work that area really do try, but most of the self-checkout staff have perfected the art of standing nearby while being remarkably unhelpful. Prices, of course, are sky high--which might be easier to swallow if the place didn't feel so out of control. Shoplifting is clearly a sport here; you can literally watch people grab cases of beer and stroll right out the door. Handheld baskets are scarce because those walk out too. Outside, the loading dock area frequently smells putrid, and the seating area that's supposed to be for paying customers is often taken over by loiterers and left dirty and uninviting. It's not exactly the relaxing neighborhood grocery vibe they're going for. And then there's the parking garage. The lighting is dim enough that you half expect a crime drama to be filming in the corner. It feels dingy, not safe or welcoming, and the escalators from the garage to the store are out of service so often they might as well be decorative art pieces. For a grocery store in the heart of Old Town, this place should feel clean, secure, and well-managed. Instead, it's giving "municipal chaos with luxury pricing."
