Liquor Stores in Southern Pines, NC

“My spouse and I are staying at a local Airbnb in town about five minutes from here and it was a rainy evening so we wanted to grab a bottle of wine or two. I headed to watering can wines and I couldn't have possibly been more pleased with my experience. I expected to walk into a small wine shop, and instead I was greeted in a beautiful open marbled lobby space by two individuals serving tastings and glasses, as well as several tables of happy patrons, chatting, drinking, and snacking. I asked if it were possible to purchase some wine bottles and where that might be located and the most lovely woman I have ever met, Dianne, showed me the old wine shop space, the new space, and the temporary space while the new space is set to be open. I shared my wine preferences with Dianne, who then suggested I try the Merlot that they have at the tasting bar. She and her lovely male counterpart poured me a very generous tasting while telling me about the history of their shop and the wine that I was drinking. I asked to peruse the Merlot section a bit further, and after giving me some time to ponder, Dianne joined and discussed what may be the best option for me. Dianne was incredibly kind and generous in her helping me choose my selection. My spouse and I are happily trying our first bottle and excited to try the other. We plan to return to the airbnb we are at and are equally excited to return to watering can wines and see Dianne again! Hopeful to be able to stay and enjoy a glass on sight next time! (Sorry for the lack of pictures, it was rainy and I left my phone in the car!)”

“This place has a great variety of beer, growlers and a store area for adult beverages. They have a great outdoor seating area that wraps around the whole place. The bathroom is clean although lacking a little water pressure in the bathroom. They also have plenty of games and underneath hooks for purses on some of the tables.”

“This is the only location within 30 - 40 miles that has several coolers containing highly rated local beers that rate 4+ on untapped. Some stouts, East and west coast IPAs and more. They will sell kegs of craft and non craft beer and have a nice area for wine and beer tasting. Oh, and they have a good selection of wines for a medium to medium/large sized store. Tastings are available so check out the website.”

“Very friendly and helpful staff. It's a bit smaller location than some other newer ones I've been to so the selection is good but not amazing. Some of the less common or obscure liquors are not found here, but 90% of anything you'd want is there with several options.”

“A great store. Wonderful selection of produce. Aisles are wide and clear. Checkout was very easy. Carson bagged my groceries, he is a great customer service person. Unlike so many people these days his attitude was positive and upbeat.”
