Excellent store! Selection is really good; prices range from great to exceptional. Staff is super helpful, professional and personal. One of the very few stores I return to every couple of weeks. Store picks are phenomenal. Highly recommend!

Best liquor store in NE Florida. Great bourbon selection. Perfect balance of everydays and rares. They do a nice job on social media letting us know what they get in stock. Really helpful

Great selection, and he staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. Their store pick bourbons have all been wonderful and other than the hard to find allocated stuff, everything is priced right! Even the allocated stuff is priced mostly well under secondary. 10/10 would definitely recommend!

In all honesty I may be a little biased because of how well the owner and I get along but I’m going to do my best to be objective.I go for Bourbon, and Rye selections when I shop for liquor but it is nice to walk into a place and see a great plethora of wine and other spirits. Still awesome walking in the door to find a bottle of Caymus in stock.Bourbons and whiskey in general are abound in this place, even a great selection of allocated and store picks to choose from. Decent price range and definitely helps to be apart of the rewards program for those hard to find bottles but if you are hunting for special bottles this is a place to find a great selection every month. Try to go early in the day if you want to make a great connection or feel free to ask the staff who are more than happy to help to make recommendations. Would recommend this place to anyone. Also, showcasing a few bottles I was able to find or be fortunate enough to have reward points for.

The rewards program is manipulated by store managers on a daily basis. It is a shame because you want to support a local store and be rewarded by being able to buy allocated bourbon at a reasonable price. Unfortunately, they manipulate to the point you are paying secondary prices for the allocated bourbon. Cheaper to just buy secondary and not have to buy stuff you don’t need or want!!! It makes you feel like you are being scammed!!

It took me almost two years to visit this neighborhood staple. The huge selection of spirits in such a limited space was staggering. They stock a remarkable number of high end bourbon, scotch, cognac, etc.I was surprised to find a bottle of Sassicaia (the original Super Tuscan wine) on the shelf.Excellence.

Shores Liquors is a liquor with a small footprint but a huge selection. I was staggered by the curated selection of high end spirits and wine. They also carry a full inventory of "mixing" spirits at prices that are very competitive with much larger chain stores.
