Binny's Lincoln Park has come through once again! They were able to procure for me a wide variety of delectable and very hard-to-find spirits for the best prices in the market - and with a level of service that's impossible to match. Binny's associates and managers are excellent when it comes to service, but the staff at this location really sets the bar. Still, it's not only their service that's exceptional - their expertise on various spirits is unparalleled. Whenever you're looking to make any spirits purchases, by all means reach out to Lincoln Park to get their informed suggestions, and they will without a doubt be able to help you! read more

Honestly, I love coming to Binny's because of all the different drinks they have here whether you're looking for regular drinks or alcohol or beer. They are definitely cheaper than some of the grocery stores you go to like Marianos or Jewels even without a sale. I love coming here just to walk around because I'll always pick up something. I've been into sun cruisers in the past couple years so this has been my go to place for reasonable priced drinks! This place hasn't disappointed me yet in terms of not being able to find what I want/need so it's always a I'll see you again when I need to stock up drinks for parties! read more

Binny's has everything! Whenever I'm looking for something different or new, this is where I come. Unique beers, mixers, even snacks. Friendly, knowledgeable staff too. I came for a THC seltzer & they had a huge selection to choose from. read more

Binny's Beverage Depot - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I used to frequent the South Loop location but now that i'm no longer in that area, I decided to finally check out this location and I can definitely say that this location is amazing. The parking lot is fairly large and the Binny's itself is pretty huge. And as always, prices are fantastic. They have a "tasting" room all the way in the back where they host events - i think you can also grab a drink there as well. The staff were helpful - at one point we had 3 staff members helping us find a whiskey! I'm looking forward to more stops at this location! read more

I received kind and quick help from two individuals which made me love the store! That was...until i spoke with a representative at the customer service department. A wine consultant if you will. He was so rude! Like for no reason. Maybe he was having a bad day. Who knows. Love this Binny's but that guy is a crabapple! I hope he feels better. He was also a lied about past experiences with customers. read more

I love that at Binny's they don't mark up their liquor like small independent ones. The same bottle at my local store would be more than double than what Binny's charges. Their selection of all things liquor is great and the knowledge of all their staff is wonderful. read more

This is the biggest Binny's I've ever seen, and probably the biggest liquor store I've ever seen too in fact. The main room is enormous, with tons of wine, beer and liquors of all descriptions. Their high-end spirits and wine rooms are awesome to look around too. But don't stop there! The next room i all champagne and other sparkling wines. Super cool! Then there are tasting and class areas. Then after that is their indoor beer garden. the place just keeps going! In non-COVID times, the beer garden is awesome and gives you a chance to taste a bunch of different and rare beers. It's close now due to the pandemic, however, which sucks. But definitely give it a try when things get back to normal. read more

Always well stocked and prices are reasonable. It's still the former Zimmerman's ( on Grand Ave.).

AMAZING!! A must stop location in Chicago. Champagne lover? Bourbon lover? How about some French wine? HERE

Absolute garbage customer service at this Binny's location. I'll never come back. I engaged with three different associates, and every one of them acted as if I was a total burden. Needed some orgeat and could only find one huge bottle. I asked a guy who was about 10' away. Here's how that conversation went: ME: Hey, I was noticing online you had some other brands and smaller sizes of orgeat, but I can't find them. Can you help? HIM: You've got the wrong location on your phone. You've got Lakeview. This is Lincoln Park. ME: Oh, okay. Sorry. Must have tapped the wrong one. HIM: Yeah, the other brands will be on the shelf right next to the one you found. If they aren't there, we don't have them. ME: Uh, okay. HIM: (gets back to his real job) I managed to find another brand on my own, thanks bro. The guy in the wine department at least tore himself away from the computer long enough to point out a particular bottle I was after but couldn't find, but not without a snide comment about how it was RIGHT HERE; and a tone that suggested I was worthless. Which, you know, I probably am. Cool, thanks bro. The woman at the checkout was clearly miserable. I bought an extra measuring shot glass - which I had to wrap with protective green netting myself because she needed to get back to a pressing conversation with another employee at checkout. The glass would be next to a bunch of other glass bottles in the bag so, I figure a little protection couldn't hurt. Generally when you buy even a single piece of glassware at any store, they'll wrap it for you in something. Here? Can't be bothered. Pro Tip: Have a sign at the door that says "If you can't find what you're looking for it's probably because you're a moron." LOL read more

I always pick up beverages and other supplies for my son's business so I visit Binny's Beverage Depot on a regular basis. Each time, I am more than pleased. The Lincoln Park neighborhood store is very easily accessed. Just off of North Avenue, they provide a spacious parking lot. It's quick and simple to get in & out. Inside, Binny's has a fresh new look. It's been updated and is attractive and bright. It has the same layout with new floors and paint. It is still so spacious and offers great displays for sales or specialty items. I'm always greeted as I enter and exit. That's a nice touch. The floor staff are in abundance. I never have to search for someone if I have a question. Check out is a breeze. They have changed they layout here with the renovation and it really works. One queue leads to several cashiers. A man called me over and took out my heavy items for me. The cashier was so friendly and helpful. She made small talk as she efficiently rang me up. She also asked if I needed assistance to my car. Shopping at Binny's, I know I will find what I need at great prices in a spacious and attractive store. I also know my business is appreciated by the kind and professional staff. read more

Just went here to check out the bar inside of this binny's! The bartender was so nice and so fun and had some fun stories to tell :) The menu was huge and the flights were so fun! And then you can just walk to the store part and buy anything you tried! So fun :)! read more

Amazing liquor, wine, and beer shop. The selection is crazy. Prices aren't nuts. And the beer selection (which you can mix and match) is full of local crafts and other specialty brews. read more

Very wide selection of adult beverages! This place has just about everything, organized in a way that's easy to find. The staff were very helpful. read more

Never ever order curbside pickup because it will never be ready even 3 hours later you in the store asking them about it they're still not ready. What was the point of a convenient of a curbside pickup if nobody look at the messages from the machine or whatever they get there order from. It's so frustrating but I always give them benefit of the doubt and still failed today I'm still waiting and it's been 2 hours smdh.. this is just doing Portage Park I am not sure about stores and other location. read more

2020 has definitely been the year of stocking up on whiskey and wine and Binny's is definitely the easiest place to go for the widest selection and best deals. Apparently for the hard to find whiskeys they have some sort of waiting list you can get on, but it seems difficult from what I hear (or rather read from Reddit). The last time I went I was specifically looking for a Ridge zinfandel and they just happened to have a whole display for Ridge wines, it was meant to be. They also have a pretty good sake selection for a big store liquor store. Better priced than Mitsuwa for sure. They need to stock Dassai though. read more

Binny's Beverage Depot - Ridge wines yessss - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Binny's Beverage Depot on Marcey is still a fine place to visit if you are shopping for something fun to drink. My love and I came here with our friends a few months ago for an enjoyable tasting event. The main space provides great atmosphere as we met numerous reps and sampled their wide array of adult beverages. Visit Binny's and you are sure to walk away with something that you will enjoy later. read more

This Binny's is vast and they have a crackerjack staff to guide you to your selection. It's great for people who don't drink wine frequently because the floor staff knows all the price points and producers. Most of the wine I buy goes into cooking. Wine really takes your homemade sauces to the pro level. You will want to drink a glass of sauce -- it's so good. Their beer selection will make your head spin too. I was after a chocolate stout and the guy showed me what seemed like a dozen varieties. Big bottle sold singly to 6-packs. They have a lot of beer from microbreweries. Binny's is like an Amazon warehouse of booze. Cashiers and floor staff are pleasant. They have a rewards membership program. Parking is easy and ample. read more

Binny's Beverage Depot - Chocolate Stout. Not my favorite brand. - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I LOVE Binny's¡! When I was more...financially viable, I would make it a day & hop between the VARIOUS Binny's locations throughout Chicagoland, starting @ the most Northern option, I would jump between SEVERAL locations, very happy that CTA/Pace/Metro...were the options to get me through, with me being able to find my..."tipsy" way home.!. ‍ Niambi Ife read more

This is a pretty legit liquor store. I've been to Chicago many times but never come here. This will be our GO TO spot for our drinks from now on. We came here this weekend for the Goose Island Black Friday release. It was well worth the trip from Vegas read more

Came in to get a couple boxes since I am moving and I collect bottles. The lady at the front said no because they buy them from the distributor. Biggest lie, my girlfriend used to work at Binnys and was a manager for 5 years. read more

Binnys is a great place to get beverages. BUT go there in person. Don't even think about getting delivery. They use Instacart, one of the most customer-unfriendly services around. Instacart drivers (the male ones) act like real d***s. Today, a driver wouldn't bring the package inside my apartment. He was at the door and wouldn't come in. So I called Instacart customer service. They said they would send a replacement order. The next driver did bring the package inside. But then wanted to scan the barcode on my driver's license. The barcode contains, among other things, your social security number and your traffic records. No reason for Instacart to have that info. In the past, the driver would enter my birthday manually. This driver wouldn't do that. So he took my order and left. I called Instacart customer support, and they refused to explain WHY they needed my SSN and traffic records. SO, go to Binny's! Get good beverages! Just AVOID INSTACART!!! read more

What can one say about Binny's that hasn't already been said? Its the 400 pound gorilla of Chicago's booze retail landscape, but they still have great prices and massive selection. The original home of Sam's is one of the Binny's I regularly frequent. They have a strong whiskey selection, lots of craft and imported beer, wines for miles, and a gigantic Champagne room. There is also a cheese and charcuterie station, with a solid selection of cheese and cured meats. Saturdays and most Sundays wine and possibly beer and booze is available for tasting. If free liquor has not sated you, venture past the Champagne room to their airy and inviting bar and event space where you can sip cocktails and wash away any doubts you had about buying that $300 Bordeaux or Single Malt you were eyeing. read more

Binny's is so terrific. They're all like a Costco for alcoholics. This location is probably my second favorite that I have been to (the one in South Loop on Jefferson is terrific). I don't really drink liquor (although my sister found some rum drinks that you freeze and then thaw, and she loved them). But it's the beer, oh the beer. All the beer. I don't think there's a brewery in Illinois that isn't represented here if it cans or bottles its beer. Certainly every brewery in the Chicagoland area is here. They have an entire aisle for each region of the country and two for Illinois/Chicago. The choices are almost endless. They even get a lot of West Coast stuff that you can't get other places in the Midwest. The employees are courteous, helpful and generally knowledgeable about their products. The store is spacious and clean and everything is very reasonably priced. And Binny's locations have their own parking lots, usually fairly spacious ones, so you don't have to worry about how to drag a case or two of beer back to your car. Yeah, this is a must-stop if you want to snag some drinks to have for your stay in Chicago. Try beers from Revolution and Maplewood, just to start with. read more

Very friendly...huge place Anastacio at the cigars is very friendly. Engaging, knowledgeable and informative. Not too suprised he is a former Marine. Even informed us of special events and the smoking section I didn't know they had before. Semper fi brother. read more

We recently had our daughter's post wedding party at The Dank Haus, and had Binny's do the alcohol delivery for the event. I cannot say enough about how knowledgeable and helpful, worker Vanelphia was, to make the party perfect! She had great wine, beer and liquor suggestions, for the different ages and our price points. They delivered to the hall and we will be using Binnys for all our small or large parties, now on! read more

I visited Binny's today and had a wonderful experience. I was greeted by a worker named Violet who found someone who helped me find the perfect bottle of wine. She also provided me with two T-Shirts and other gifts as souvenirs when I informed her that I was from Oklahoma and looking for Chicago memorabilia. As we were leaving, she ran out to our car to give us the souvenirs. If this is how all of their employees take care of their customers, I will definitely be visiting again when I visit Chicago. read more

By far the largest Binny's location I've been to in Chicago. Excellent selection from liquor, to wine, to craft beer... they got just about everything imaginable in stock. This location has a pretty big parking lot so no need to worry about paying or looking for street parking. And also has an entire section dedicated to champagne. After browsing through some pics, I just noticed there's also a tasting room just beyond the champagne section. Dang this place is huge. Anyways, be sure to sign up for a Binny's membership to get sales price on sale items (it's a free membership). And after sometime, you get $10 credit back after spending a certain amount that's good for anything in store. 'Til next time, cheers! read more

Super greedy management. Don't support local breweries or spirits companies. As a consumer you can get low prices, but there is a way they get these prices and that is being very manipulative to the brands. The staff is generally helpful but the main whisky buyer is less than ethical. read more

You know when you find that special spot.... That little nook in your guy's arm you want to curl up inside of.... Or that killer angle for taking your hottest selfie.... Maybe it's that special ingredient you needed to make your sous vide steak perfection. Binny's in Lincoln Park is all of that for me. Does this show I have problems? For sure. But do I give a flying hoot? Heck nah! This Binny's is an adult's candy store full of everything and anything you could possibly drink that has even the smallest dash of liquor in it. I think I spent 30 minutes slowly going up & down the craft beer aisles trying to take it all in and attempting to limit myself to buying just a few things. I did pretty well on this first trip just buying 2 bombers, 2 6 pack and one mix & match 6 pack. They have a fabulous collection of craft beers, domestic sludge and some fun international beers, as well as malt beverages and hard fruit drinks. It's pretty cool because the beer is divided by region but that also made it a bit more confusing in finding certain things. Also, there were some things in their advertisement such as a mixed 12 pack of Deschutes that was supposed to be on sale but was nowhere to be found. Most of the store seems to be made up of wine & hard liquor so if those are your things, then there are a ton of selections for you. It ain't mine, so I didn't pay it much mind. There is a huge, really cool section they call the Champagne Depot, which is really more of a Champagne ballroom because it's so big. I have some girlfriends that love the bubbly so I know where to go now to get them some special fizzy stuff. If you walk through these rows upon rows of bottles, past the champagne room, you come to the crowning jewel of this Binny's which separates it from all the rest. Their amazing taproom. The tasting room at Binny's is in a massive area which was formally Lincoln Park Pumping Station built in 1905 and has been completely renovated. This is not a normal tasting room...it features RARE craft beers. I had two flights of beers I had never tried before and each flight of 4 was just $12. One beer that was in my tasting of 8? Goose Island's very sought after Bourbon County Barleywine 2013. Delicious and totally random that it was on tap. I was such a happy girl that I could not stop gushing! To boot, the bartender was such a nice lady! She was eager to help and answered all my questions. I was sad this space could not be rented out because I thought it would be amazing for various events. She said they do host special Binny's events in the taproom though. The tasting room has prohibition newspapers blown up and framed which I found fascinating, as well as old wooden beer crates and barrels. The decor goes really well with the wooden table, over-sized comfy brown chairs, wood paneling and flooring & insanely high ceilings with brick everywhere, even brick inside of a drain pipe up high. I absolutely loved the atmosphere and just felt at peace hanging out here. If you want to sit outside in the fresh air, they even have a sweet patio to relax on. So let's recap (and add a few sections I haven't yet mentioned)~ -Walk in humidor for cigar folks -Wine cellar with fancy expensive wines & liquors that is locked & you must have someone open for you -Tons of craft beer, hard liquor, and wines (most weekends they have someone doing samples) -Largest selection of sakes & sojus I've ever seen around, including at Asian markets -Huge Champagne Depot -Market where they sell cool cheeses & some other random items to go with your liqs -Pimped out taproom with patio that offers pints & flights (beer/wine) & cocktails & slushies -Amazing staff -Great Binny's prices *You can check stock before shopping on the Binny's website* *Be sure to join their Rewards club* Binny's in Lincoln Park - why didn't I discover you sooner?! I have many future plans of coming here for some liquor shopping but getting in a solo flight in the kick@$$ taproom before perusing the beer aisles buzzing. See you soon, new BFF, see you soon. read more

I will begin here, I have been to two different Binny's locations both have been spot on. I was looking for a particular beer that released last month. I searched everywhere. Finally, after extensive searching I found it. This location in Lincoln Park was the go to location. I placed my order for in store pick up. Waited for my email for in store pick up. Once I got there, I was greeted as soon I walked in. Very clean location. Hands down of the best Binny's I have been too. Friendly staff. The in store pick up was a smooth transition. The store is fully stock with everything you could possibly need. I found some items I haven't seen in other stores. I am glad I made the trip to this location. Thank you. I do recommend this location and I will be back soon. Thank you Binny's. I salute you. read more

Binny's Beverage Depot - Outside of Binny's in Lincoln Park. First time here. Great location. - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Went in to see what local selections were available, a few nice local craft breweries products on the shelves, but sadly none of the smaller local distilleries I'd hoped to see while in the area. read more

A hard-to-find bottle of bourbon showed up on social media at the store. I called to see if they had it and they said that unfortunately they were sold out. Keisha actually called me back to let me know that they had found one remaining bottle, which she told me to come in for! To find someone like Keisha who was sympathetic to my situation and went out of the way to make my day and week was amazing. So thankful for real people who care about the customer. Thanks to Keisha and thanks Binny's Lincoln Park! read more

Binny's is honestly the best. If it's not there you shouldn't be drinking it. The prices are always extremely reasonable and it more often than not the item that you were looking for, at least for me, is generally on sale. They also throw really awesome events such as the Game of Thrones event, donut pairing tasting, or just the general tastings they have around the store. Anytime we need help locating an item the staff there is always more than willing to stop whatever else they are doing and help, when ordering kegs they make it an easy breezy process and call promptly once it is available, overall this is just a great store with superior products, prices, and staff. read more

This is the best binnys in the whole Chicagoland area and not just because it's the biggest. Their staff is so caring and helpful. Every time I need something they get it in for me one way or another. You can tell that they genuinely care about their customers. I want to specifically shout out the beer department there. They are so great!!! I want to be friends with these guys. There's no other liquor store I would ever want to go to! Binnys Lincoln park thank you for your service! read more

Hands down the best liquor store in the whole world in my book. It has the largest champagne room in the world. It has a lovely and spacious bar in what I believe was a factory previously. This store on Saturdays has lots of wine tastings going on. The staff are so thoroughly helpful. I am starting to build a collection for my 2 yo for when she turns 21 yo and they have certainly been so very helpful to me. Their prices are better than most other places in town. I come here more for the wine (firstly) and beer (secondly) than the liquor so cannot speak to the prices of that. I am usually here at least one Saturday afternoon a month with my 2 yo and 3 mo daughters in a stroller, so I think they know me by now. Secret hint: this is a great play space as well. The bar is really spacious and my oldest just loves running around. read more

Is there anyone who doesn't like Binny's? Even non drinkers can find great stuff! This location is special, however. It's so pretty, the people are so nice, and there is a special space in the back. I've been to two events here, and they were great. The reps who sell the alcohol are awesome, too. Besides just the fun alcohol products, including fun labels and pretty bottles...there are other party products too like limes, lemons, cheese, olives. read more

Incredibly disappointed with Binny's Lincoln Park. We are hosting a graduation party and ordered beer and wine for delivery. THEY CHARGED US $70 FOR DELIVERY, EXACTLY DOUBLE WHAT WAS QUOTED TO US! When I called to inquire why the delivery charge was so high, they were unable to give any good reason (other than that they were ripping us off) and were unwilling to make any accomodations once brought to their attention. With so many other liquor stores out there, why would I want to spend my $ at Binny's?! VERY uncool. We will no longer support a business that would use deceptive practices like this! Shame on you, Binny's! read more

Extensive selection of craft beer which is conveniently arranged by region. They have bottles on the shelves and kept cold in adjacent refrigerators as well. As always, I'm still very surprised at the abundance of West Coast varietals on the shelves of liquor and bottle stores in Chicago. Binny's certainly had a huge section dedicated to SD craft beer. Numerous aisles were dedicated to beer, but they also had a vast collection of wine. I loved the addition of a tasting room in the back, but sadly they already closed down shop at 8:30pm when we came to browse on a Friday night. HUGE liquor store which was the equivalent of Bevmo here on the west coast but certainly MUCH much bigger and with greater selection. Binny's is truly the adult equivalent of a candy store. I wish such an extensive beverage store existed over here! read more
