“This is a great liquor store with very knowledgeable staff/ owners. If you are looking for hard to find Bourbons and Whiskey's this is the place for you. They have an outstanding selection of Blanton's many of which are not sold in the US. Prices are competitive and service is great!. If you like spirits or are into designer bottles, then do not miss shopping at this location.”
“Was in Albany visiting family after their surgery. Came across this gem here on yelp. Mary not only offers cheese made from raw milk, but also makes a killer grilled cheese sandwich. I will be back. Thank you.”
“Oliver's Beverage in Albany is an in-the-know type booze and wine store. It's best in the summer. The shelves are expertly marked by region and by category. Find German beer, soda, small bottle shooters, whiskey cask beer, French wines, Italian whites, 6 packs, singles and even a fountain (that I have not tried out yet) to fill beer-growlers with that good Winter Lager or IPA. It's a very large shop and it would be nice if there were (it's a Yelp tip Oliver's..) a place for pregnant moms and old folks to sit: inside or outside. The prices are a bit on the higher end but you find oddities and some nifty finds, only here. Pretty good assortment. Review: 5”
“Pint Sized in Albany gives off such a hipster vibe, and I absolutely love it! The beer selection is fantastic, and the customer service is top-notch. Overall, it was a great experience!Located conveniently in the heart of Albany's Center Square neighborhood, this is the first Pint Sized location. Whether you live nearby or are just visiting, it's the perfect spot to grab a growler or mix-four pack and enjoy your favorite craft brews on the stoop or at the bar in their historic space. The patio seating offers a charming ambiance, allowing you to soak in the lively atmosphere of the "Greenwich Village" of the Capital Region.Some favorite activities in the area include enjoying Washington Park (with a beer, of course), grabbing a latte from Stacks, attending free concert series like LarkFest, Art on Lark, Tulip Festival, and Alive at Five, indulging in smash burgers from Herbies, and exploring the Empire State Plaza. Don't forget to check out their Untappd for real-time updates on the draft list and weekly updates on the can selection. Cheers to a fantastic spot in Albany!”
“We were going away for a weekend, and we stopped by this liquor store for drinks, The attendant helped us to find what we desired, and we truly liked the selections that he suggested. Thank you!!!”
“Always a nice service and very helpful with finding the certain drink! I love the point program and the Dogs are my favorite part about it here! Keep up the genuine service!!”
“Jim is knowledgeable and always very helpful in finding exactly what I want. Prices are very reasonable. It feels good to support a smaller local business that provides exceptional selection and service.”
“The best liquor store in the Capital District.The outside looks shabby ( it's going to be updated soon) but the inside is great. Stop in and say hello to Thapa behind the counter. Tell him Mike sent you. Great selection. Excellent prices. Look for the flashing arrow on Central Ave. near Osborn.”
“Love this place, just moved into the neighborhood and the owner is always respectful and super professional. Great prices. He'll have a customer as long as I live here”
“The staff is always so helpful when I want to try something new. Great selection and down to earth attitudes! Perfect place to support a local business in the capital region.”
“The place was very busy and they ran out of certain foods prematurely. The music was ' vunderbar ' and the ambiance was great also.. Had a wonderful time.”
“Always open as they say theyll be and always they have what I'm looking for. A plus.But I would like to add, I think, if liquor Stores did the "buy one get one", ten punch cards it'd be pretty awesome!”
“A nice little wine shop with a great selection of wines! The selection isn’t huge but they make up for that in the quality of what they sell. I don’t know much about wine, so I pick my usual price point, location of the vineyard and then pick whatever bottle looks the coolest. So far I haven’t been disappointed using this process here! The staff is also always friendly and helpful as well. Highly recommend”
“The young man with the beard and the young lady with the highlights are always there when I come to shop. They're ALWAYS very friendly. Hell the young man even put me on to "Milagros" tequila(which is delicious). And the dogs are adorable!”
“This store is small, but they have a great selection. They have a nice selection of New York state spirits, which is an added bonus. It is located in Stuyvesant Plaza, so very convenient.”
“Laviano Wine & Liquor provides an excellent selection of wines and spirits, catering to both connoisseurs and casual enthusiasts. The knowledgeable staff is always ready to offer recommendations and guidance, enhancing the shopping experience. The store's well-organized layout and fair pricing contribute to its appeal. Laviano Wine & Liquor stands out as a reliable destination for those seeking a diverse and quality assortment of alcoholic beverages.”
“Great people and nice selection of wine and spirits. Pay no mind to the stupid review by Will S. as he obviously wouldn't be happy if someone gave him 100 dollar bills...Stop by and see Mr. Vincent and his great store. Great location and easy parking.TK”
“This store has different names depending on where you search. The sign over the door says "Westmere Wine and Spirit." On Google you'll find both "Westmere Wine & Liquor" and "Westmere Liquor Store," and here on Yelp, it's also "Westmere Liquor Store." But they're all the same place, at 1810 Western Avenue. For a relatively small space, it's amazing how much they carry and just how well organized it is. The wines dominate the middle aisles. On the right, you have some New York State wines, and you've also got Asian selections, including a large variety of Sake. On the left, you have your liquors, and these are competitively priced. Plus, given how close it is to my home, it's very convenient for me.”
“Ohh now this is a great wine store! My favorite part is the display in the front where you can build your own packs of premade drinks. I love being able to take home a variety! Outside of the build your own, there is a great choice of wine and alcohol in this gigantic store. Staff is friendly in helping you find what you need. Everything is very clean, store easy to navigate. Highly recommend!”
“Aside from participating in the restoring of this building from a dry cleaners to what is now a premium winery and liquor spot, it is one of the best in atmosphere and selection. I know when we first completed the brick work the second floor could be rented for private parties although I'm not sure if they are still providing this service. All in all worth a stop if you are in the area!”
“Awesome neighborhood wine shop! Small selection, but lovingly cultivated with some lovely higher end choices as well. Staff is also warm and welcoming. Can't recommend it enough!”
“The Brew Crew at Westmere Beverage is, hands down, the best staff and store in the Capitol District for beer. Have been going here for years and it continues to improve. Highly recommended for selection, price, knowledgeable and friendly staff.”
“Great variety of wine specials all around the place. Great selection of wines and spirits from all around the world with knowledgeable and friendly staff. Ck it out 20% off cases, even mixed - wait, can that be right? Join their club and get cash back! Also, the best music for liquor store in Albany.”
“The young man that were here Friday Dec 23rd were great! I needed Bailey's original and they did everything to find enough to make sure I had it for my cheesecake! I even brought the one that was working on Christmas Eve back a small version as a surprise.Thank you very much have a Happy New Year!”
“A bit of a drive for me, but worth it for the selection. The prices are good and they're the only place I've found "locally" that has any kind of sherry selection. Great for classic cocktail enthusiasts....”
“Visited this location on 6/12/2020 (during COVID19) everyone lines up outside and one by one you step inside surrounded by this plexi glass...the store associate asks you what you would like...rings it up...and you open up this little door to give her your cash or credit/debit card. I didn't think to take pictures but this is the current process while Coronavirus is going around. They have many varieties and also sell a light fruity drink called Stella Rosa! Ladies, you will like Stella Rosa! Go check it out! It cost $12.95 per bottle.”
“Really nice spot in Delaware Plaza. We normally visit Empire Wine when we need adult beverages in the Albany area, but stopped in here since we were already nearby to meet friends for dinner. They have a nice selection of NYS wines and liquors right when you enter the store and they had some selections from my favorite wineries in the Finger Lakes (although, sadly, they don't carry Ravines). They also had some nice selections of Garnacha from Spain. I scored two reasonably priced bottles ($10 and $13). The store is well laid out and the checkout person was super nice. I would most definitely return here next time I am in the area.”
“Service is great in there it's very local and the dog the dog that's in there I love going in there because the dog comes over to me and says hello LOL nice place”
“This is a great neighborhood shop, very impressed with what they have done with the place. Nice selection/assortment for the space. I appreciate that they carry a number of local and NYS based spirits. As an added perk - if they don't carry what you are looking for, just let the staff know and they will do everything they can to stock it for you.”

“Ok. This review is so long overdue and for what it's worth, there are lots of ridiculous 1 star reviews from people for petty reasons. Let's just get that out of the way. I've been to every liquor store, but we live in strange times and I stopped at that high volume spot by the red bullseye and they were selling Buffalo Trace for $70 and Eagle Rare for $90. Fortaleza Blanco (though they didn't have any) was in the locked cabinet! They had Blantons for $170. Why would anyone shop at a place taking advantage of people. Which brings me to my point. This is a family owned and operated business in a tiny space. If you spend a little time talking to them like people, they have terrific recommendations at pre-Covid prices! Could they charge more? Yes. But you have to respect a business that isn't gouging the local customer even with bourbon and now tequila hunters ruining it for the common person who's not looking to flip booze on the secondary market for twice the price. I walked in. Need a case of mixed wines averaging $15 a bottle. Boom. Terrific selection and everyone enjoyed the tasting. Looking for this bottled-in-bond. Let me write it in my book. Boom. On the shelf. No Fortaleza? Any recommendations. Boom. Verify good. Not quite as good, but a SOLID substitute. Today. I said thanks for the recommendation. Still haven't seen my tequila in a year. "Hold on he says." Boom. Brings me a bottle from the back. $55. Not the $129 I'm seeing online. They have a solid inventory for a small shop. But hands down. Without a doubt. The best prices in the region.”
