“Working with Garfield's for our wedding day went so well! They were so helpful with the planning process of what type and how much liquor to purchase. And the refund and pickup process for leftovers was great! If your venue/caterer let's you do BYOB, we definitely recommend using Garfield's!”
“Very impressive place. I have never seen before like that liquor store. That’s a big liquor world in Chicago. You have to found what exactly looking for. I love this place. It was very nice experience for me.”
“Kol Tuv is a hidden gem on Devon Ave in Chicago. It is a specialty grocery store that carries an eclectic variety of foods that cater to all different populations. They have all the items you would find in a typical grocery store plus gluten free, dairy free, kosher, gourmet etc. When you go, you must check out the selection of chocolates and candies. The staff is friendly and helpful and the store is immaculate. This store makes grocery shopping fun and exciting! Hope you love it as much as we do!”
“This was no ordinary sampling. This was an anniversary sampling. There were lots of tables set up. When I tell you there was not a liquor that this location didn't have!!! They have everything!”

“First time at Lyons beverage store was so impressed at how pretty it was. Clean spacious pleasing to walk into. Shelves nicely done and You do not feel crammed in like some liquor stores, by far the nicest liquor store I’ve been in!!! Employees pleasant as well!”
“Can I put 10 stars?! Hands down one of the best liquor stores in the Chicago area. Every time I’m in Chicago, I make sure to stop by. Sometimes I leave with a sad face but most of the time with a big smile ? Great prices! Affordable! Great specials! I collect tequila bottles and this the place with the rarest, extensive collection of bottles. My biggest issue is when I go, I don’t know which bottle to take home! It’s a little overcrowded, but definitely a place to check out!”
“I figured I should write a review for Bottle Theory, as I just found myself gushing to a friend about how wonderful everything is here. This spot is by far one of my favorites! At this point, we’ve hosted two parties here and the staff is always incredibly attentive and accommodating regardless of our group size. The taproom is very spacious, and the patio is a perfect place to relax and enjoy the warmer weather. As a vegetarian, I sincerely appreciate the variety of veggie options found on their menu. I’ve never spoken to anyone at Bottle Theory who seemed less than absolutely thrilled to help, which makes my heart sing as a former service industry worker. I know that good employers take care of good people, and there are certainly an abundance of good people here. I also love that the taproom is family friendly, and even boasts a great selection of non-alcoholic drinks and beers for my sober friends. Overall, I always feel like I can easily please everyone here - and that’s why we keep coming. Thanks for all you do, BT!”
“It is so clear that this is a passion project. Everything in this store is carefully thought out. Nearly every bottle has a handwritten paragraph about it. There is so much variety packed into one little shop without the snobbery you might find at comparable places. Price points at all levels, too! Also, Thursday wine tastings are so much fun! I have learned so much about wine from going to these tastings when I can. Everyone that works here is super knowledgeable and patient. My husband and I bring our 3 young kids and everyone is always so cool and understanding. I would give it more stars if I could!”
“This liquor store is a game-changer! They've got an amazing variety of drinks that cater to everyone's tastes, from the classics to unique finds. What's even better? The prices won't make a dent in your wallet! It's my go-to spot for quality drinks that don't cost a fortune. If you want great options at great prices, this place is a winner!”
“Really great wine store! The staff is also incredibly helpful. I will often come here saying "I am looking for something that tastes like a pinot nior, or pinot gris, etc." and they can easily point me in the right direction of a unique natural wine similar in flavor profile. We are so lucky to have such a cool wine store in this neighborhood!”
“Love their delivery service and their online ordering is super convenient and fast! Was out of stock on a few items I ordered, but they immediately called me, and we made a swap. Great fast service!”
“Huge selection of everything. Well organized. The staff are very knowledgeable and really enjoy helping not just finding what you want, but understanding why you like it.”
“Favorite Korean market for how authentic it feels. Prices are good and they carry everything I need for Korean cooking. Tiny restaurant inside serving fantastic and affordable food.”
“I had an amazing experience at Total Wine & More! The store has an impressive selection of wines, beers, and spirits that cater to all tastes and budgets. The staff is incredibly knowledgeable and helped me find the perfect bottle for a special occasion. The store is well-organized, making it easy to find what”
“Came in the last 30 mins before closing and the lady at the register wasn't bothered at all.I felt bad because the guy just mopped the floor but they were so chill about it.I've come in the last "hour" for a lot of places and they are so mad.. to see me walk in..?.Also I spend a whole 20 mins looking around and all I can say is they have a great selection and at even better prices .Baught the same pint of henny from a store a mile away and it was a whole $3. Cheaper here.”
“I love this family. They revamped this place a few years ago and it’s so much better now. A chemical engineer major turned store owner and a family to help out. They always have my special WC brand before the company changes the size.”
“Friendly service under new management adjacent to a sports bar. The package goods has a good selection. I found it pricier than before. The sports bar never reopened after about 2 years.”
“Just moved into a place a block from here and I’m so glad this is my new walk to liquor store. Great selection of craft beer, seltzers, ciders and non-alcoholic bevs (soda/sport drinks/etc). Their liquor selection is good but not extensive, not cheap but not expensive. Personally I hope they’ll add more bourbon options but all in due time : ). Also, everyone I’ve encountered who works there, esp the owner are super nice, and the customers I’ve encountered are great as well. <3 Albany Park.”
“Reliable, customer-first, and enough product variety where they always have what you need. The cherry on top is Hitesh, the man behind the counter, that makes this place more than a convenience store but the go-to haven for every local in Wilmette. Hitesh always welcomes you with has a big smile on his face, making your day.”
“This place is a hidden gem. The staff is so friendly and knowledgeable. Even though we came in almost at closing time we weren’t rushed. We were given samples without pressure to buy. Prices are extremely reasonable and the selection is abundant. Do yourself a favor and stop in here. I wish we were local, instead of just visiting. This would definitely be our go to store.”
“I love this convenient store, Nick and Chris are the best! It literally is one stop….. from all the snacks, beverages, and alcohol you can think of! Oh and not to mention they have slot machines there :) my favorite go to place in Melrose Park.”
“they take good well care of the hood my momma and aunti are broke than a mf and some times we need a lil zip of that yak but my mans got the best prices from all the hoods i been at”
“I don't go to liquor stores often but when I do I prefer Sal's in Addison. They are always there to answer questions and steer me in the right direction!”
“A wonderful wine shop-the owner has great taste and offers a variety of wines at a good value. We have found many great new wines here! The monthly wine club selections have been great. Vinissimo is a relaxed atmosphere with a helpful, super friendly owner.”
“Went here as a mid stop on a brewery tour. This place is exceptional. All the beer is available to drink in-store and the staff member Jordan was very knowledgeable and friendly. If you are in the area this place is a must stop!”
