The Gold Standard for liquor stores…read more This Binny's location sets the bar high just as all of their stores. The store is bright, clean, and extremely well-stocked -- everything from everyday beer and wine to rare spirits you won't find at most retailers. The layout makes it easy to browse, and the aisles are wide enough that even when it's busy, it never feels crowded. The staff here really know their stuff. Whether you're hunting for a specific bourbon, a great cab under $20, or craft beer recommendations, they're always ready to help and never make you feel rushed. They actually walked me to the area and bottles I was looking for and gave me the history. Prices are great (often better than competitors), and checkout is quick. Parking is plentiful, which makes the experience even easier. If you're in the Downers Grove area, this Binny's is absolutely worth the stop -- a go-to for both casual buyers and serious collectors.

I was fairly apprehensive when first walking in. The parking situation is a mess at best. However,…read moreonce I figured out the rinky-dink doors to get in, I realized I would be back many more times (and I have). There are a few people working here, but the younger man that always wears a bluetooth is quite helpful. He went around the store introducing and describing so many different beers. The selection is amazing for this kind of liquor store. You wouldn't dream of seeing so many odd beers there. We now go here once a week and try a new type of beer.

We had never been to this liquor store previously, my husband and and are not big drinkers (except…read morewhen we go to a restaurant and they offer a Long Island Iced tea... I can't resist!) We were purchasing some adult beverages for an upcoming wedding, and were overwhelmed by their huge selection! The manager Mike, a really nice and courteous man offered to help us with our selection, and even went down to the basement to get us more. One day, while the weather is still nice, I might even go back and purchase the the ingredients to make my own Long Island Iced and sip it on the patio.

She offered a selection of cheese and charcuterie to BYO cheese board. This is nice if you want to come in and cork a bottle or want to snack while you attend a tasting. We recently had a private birthday party here for my mom and sister. They allowed us to bring in our own food, and they did a wine tasting experience for each guest. We started with a nice and light rose and worked our way up to a bold cab. Every guest got to go at their own pace, and she was patient enough to re-explain each tasting the different guests wanted. Everyone raved about it! Don't hesitate to stop by this shop and stay a while. They are always eager to help you try something new!

She carries only the best quality varietals, cares about ethical sourcing, and there is something for everyone with regard to both price point and personal taste. She keeps her business clean, safe, welcoming, and relaxing. Her staff, Marinda, Alyssa, and Elena, are also highly knowledgeable, professional, and considerate. They are always willing to lend a helping hand and share their vast knowledge of wines. She keeps a wonderful menu that features meats and cheeses, and someone is always present to help you decide what best pairs with the food of your choice. The wine tastings at 406 are fantastic, and she often brings representatives from wineries (domestic and international) to educate attendees. I also love that she periodically hosts a trivia night. I highly recommend the wine club. We have been members for years, have never had a problem with billing, and the wines she chooses are always fantastic. I appreciate that they are in sync with the seasons, holidays, and special occasions. Cellar 406 is hands down the best wine shop in the Chicagoland area, and I highly recommend this small business.

Also find some unicorns here at times. I've bought Goose Island county stouts that were years earlier that I was surprised to find. Staff here is always helpful and a bright side for me. Love to see a bit more variety on the craft beer, but just a solid establishment all the way around. If you like seltzer based drinks they do indeed have a massive selection.

BEWARE!! Owners are dishonest and sneaky. My friend bought a bottle of remy XO, once she arrived at…read moremy house about 20 mins later we opened the box and inside was crown xo. We were upset to say the least but we thought we would give the shop the benefit of the doubt and see if it was a mistake. So we drove back only to see they have closed already. My friend came back next morning and they turned her away. Not only was the the bottle not the correct bottle it was also damaged. I'm not sure what type of place they are trying to run here but we will not be returning also just a warning to other customers if the liquor is boxed make sure you check it first. Make sure they open the box and show u before you walk out. We did t think of doing this because we trusted that something like this wouldn't happen.

The bar space was bright and clean, with hooks under the bar to hang out purses and coats, and space for 10 to comfortably taste test around the bar. The flight she provided was $18, with a great variety of lesser known champagnes, which we all really enjoyed! We ended up buying a bottle to share between us at the end that Vicky recommended and it was outstanding! We've already booked the private room for our group's book club in February, great thing is it is BYOF! We are definitely looking forward to coming here more. She did mention she has a handful of non-sparkling, which I may opt to try next time.

Right off the back I noticed how nice and welcoming the location is! For someone who doesn't drink wine enough to know exactly what to look for, the help and knowledge from a older gentleman was amazing he was not pushy at all offered knowledge details on the bottle we looked for. Highly recommend for good quality wine at a very good price.

They carry a lot of bottles that you won't find at Binny's (I grabbed Weller and Blanton's that day). The prices are reasonable and each time I've gone in, the staff has met me with pleasant conversation each time. I highly recommend 20 West to anyone looking for a great local liquor store. It is always best to support a local business and this is one I can definitely get behind. Extra perk: they even had a bottle of Weller Special Reserve! Unfortunately few everyone else, I had to buy their last bottle.
