Bottles is just a door or two down from Pollyanna in downtown Lemont. It's convenient for carry outs or to gos. Shared parking lot. If it is full, there is street parking or free Lemont lots. read more

If you go to Bottles, do yourself a favor and sit at the bar with Amanda. She's the kind of bartender who remembers your drink, actually listens when you talk, and somehow makes the entire place feel like your local spot - even if it's your first time there. She was friendly, fast, and genuinely fun to talk to. You can tell she loves what she does, and it completely changes the vibe. Drinks were perfect, service was on point, and Amanda made the night way better than we expected. Highly recommend Bottles - but especially recommend Amanda. She's the reason I'll be back. read more

Bartender said they did last call when I ordered a drink but never did. denied my friend for no reason, and was definitely not friendly. do not recommend if the dark haired bartender is working because she will be a dick. read more

This place is awesome. Had a bartender named Amanda who glowed with positive energy, and made a blah night for us so much better. Service matters! We'll come back to this place because she made our night fun. Professional and fast service. Clean bathrooms. Good music. Great vibe. read more

Imagine your bar is packed because a band is playing in your parking lot and a fundraiser is doing a pub crawl in the town and your bartenders and their friends are harassing patrons and so irritated because they are busy. I've never experienced anything like this. I went in with kindness and was immediately given a nasty attitude. Someone lied about being the owner and I have them on video and then proceeded to harass me as I was trying to tell them that their bartender and their friends were harassing me and theier so-called bouncer put their hands on us while another bartender was trying to give us drinks on the house for being so inappropriately treated. The Lemont police department even confirmed that there was problem at this establishment but there was nothing they can do and apologize to us for the mistreatment. read more

Parking can be a hassle to get here but once you're inside, it's a great place to come in, relax and have a fun time. Me and my wife we're here to visit a few colleagues for a get together and had a fun time here. It's pretty loud on the weekend. They even had a DJ. I give this place props for having at least 5 selections to choose from of Hard Cider options. Prices are a bit high but the atmosphere is worth is experiencing. Friendly staff! Clean place. read more

This place sucks - do not come here bartenders are rude as hell. Service is slow and no one cares

I enjoy going to Bottles, as it allows all my friends the option to venture to Pollyanna Brewing next door or grab beer/seltzer/wine on site. We tend to meet in the outdoor seating to enjoy our drinks and a pizza together. Pretty good wine and canned drink selection, and the price across the board is pretty reasonable. A bottle of Resiling is about $20. That's reasonable for a few friends on a night out. read more

Do not waste your time at this bar unless you want to be greeted by the most unprofessional and rude bartender, Amanda. We arrived with a group and were immediately told to leave for no reason. There was no manager or security around to address her awful behavior. It's concerning to see employees here just do whatever they want considering how intoxicated they looked. We tried to contact the manager several times afterwards but received no response. As new residents, we will not be coming back and will be sure to warn others about this appalling experience. read more

Good service, great selection and outdoor seating is available. Ill definitely be back for a Drink. Covid protocols arent practiced at this location or any establishment around here. I guess everyone in Lemont is vaccinated! Lol! read more

Real chill vibe with an awesome staff. It's also super close to just about everything - incredibly convenient for downtown area. They also sell booze you can bring home with you, so if you're only wanting to grab just one obligatory drink with friends then maybe a sixer to bring home to share with your partner or self or friends, whatever - they've got you covered! They have outdoor spots as well and the music is right up our alley, so there's really nothing negative I could come up with. read more

Not one to ever write a bad review but truly had a horrible experience at this place. Bartender was incredibly rude upon entry, didn't make the correct drink for me and then overheard her boasting to another staff member about making the incorrect drink. Patrons were clearly over-served to the point where we left because of an offensive conversation between patron and bartender regarding our party. Pro tip when working in the service industry bartenders - respect boundaries, treat people with kindness, and withhold the integrity of your job! We came in from out of town and heard great things about this place, but we're incredibly disappointed that this was our experience and will most definitely not be coming back. Learn how to make a Midori sour and treat paying customers with kindness and respect. And to the owners, I highly recommend having a conversation about boundaries with your bartenders. read more

Super chill place with a casual & relaxing atmosphere. Beer selection on tap is good & can selection in the coolers are plentiful. Just a cool place to hang out with a group. read more

Fun bar. Great selection of beers and shots. Right next to the brewery so it makes for the perfect drinking combination. Close to all the local food as well. read more

Cold beer and great staff. Always a great time here no matter the time or day of the week. Enjoyed busy nights with DJ & live bands. And then also enjoyed a quiet Tuesday afternoon with good people and great songs in the background. Full service bar and the staff is always willing to mix anything you desire. Coolers are always filled and changes often as well as the taps. Stop in and enjoy a few. read more

Great place and atmosphere! Claire is the best, whether you want an old fashioned, martini, or a beer, she's got you covered ...The service is what's speaks. Thanks for the hospitality :) read more

I wasn't sure what to expect when I went in. What I got was a great surprise. It's a laid-back place to buy a beer (huge selection) and just hang out. The guy working the front desk was a nice guy as well. Not overcrowded and cool tunes. While I was there, I dropped a $20 into the video poker and turned it into $100. A great alternative to the other bars down there. read more

Bottles is awesome. There aren't many places that you have such a choice of beverages, in such a low-pressure atmosphere. You are free to browse as much as you want, and, hey, if you're me, you just choose things that have the prettiest labels. :) The people working here are always friendly, and for the last few months they have had $1 shots! Not always amazing stuff, but for awhile they had Courvoisier. That was amazing. They have video poker and bands on the weekend. The decor is stylish and makes you want to stick around for ONE MORE DRINK. Which usually turns into at least two more. Bottles is a great destination for drinking in downtown Lemont. read more

Bottles is one of my go to bars. So many different drinks to choose from and the staff is always so friendly. I usually come when Emily is working, and she always goes above and beyond! read more

I went to their Beer Tasting today, they charged $ 10.00 dollars for "four tastings of warm beer served to you in a 1/2 filled shot glass." Really !!!. RIP OFF for a sip of warm beer and if you wanted to purcase a "full beer" you were pointed to their coolers, when I asked "where would one of the 4 beers I tasted be located. I got a "shrug" and was told by 3 different bartenders , I do not know , just look for it in the 3 coolers ????? With a line a people trying to search for their beer, To Andrea or Andre " the owner as I was told by a bartender, get help that know's your product Shame on you for such poor customer service, in my opinion ! read more

Fantastic liquor store lounge ! But, as Ruthie H. stated, its so much more. The staff was extremely helpful and the environment is unique, both inside and out. It's a very casual atmosphere with rustic benches in the interior and bistro tables outside. The strip of stores near their location make the area a destination. They also have a lot of special events all year long. Worth a stop in to check it out. read more

It is a liquor store that you can drink at! So dozens of craft beers from the US and around the world are available for you - cold - for 3 or 4 bucks! Wine too - at store prices - not restaurant prices. This is definitely a place to hang out. read more

We LOVE Bottles! I returned to bottles after hearing that they expanded to include a place for people to hang out. This was my go to liquor store if I was in the downtown area or if I was in the mood for a nice craft beer. We decided to check out the new location after dinner one night and fell in love with the place. We hand picked a bottle of Arrogant Bastard, checked out, and sat in a super comfy leather couch in the corner. There was a couple playing video poker and a couple dudes watching sports on TV. I almost immediately decided that I was going to go get a card game. We were able to quietly enjoy conversation, a few hands of Skip-Bo, a few bottles of craft beer, all in the comfort of a living room environment. The gentleman working that night was super friendly and helpful. He also had good taste in music, it was his iPod that was hooked up all night. I was so grateful to not have to listen to '80s glam rock, or country. It was the perfect end to a perfect evening. We've returned several times since and have even included it as a stop on downtown Lemont pub crawls. Bottles sells bottles of wine, booze, and beer by the pack or single bottles. You choose, check out with the cashier, and hang out (or leave). It's not a bar, but it's an awesome place to relax. read more

This past weekend I was in Chicago visiting some family and my cousins took me on a pub crawl with them in downtown Lemont for St. Patrick's Day. Our meeting spot, or home base, was Bottles. It's not a big place, but it was really nice inside. The whole back wall were coolers of beer, and you could purchase individual bottles of beer. They also had a whole wall and rows of wine. My FAVORITE find though here was the alcohol infused whip cream. YES you read that right, alcohol infused whip cream!! I live in Pittsburgh, and you cannot get this here yet. I grabbed a couple of bottles and I cannot wait to share it with all of my friends. I hope to visit this spot when I'm back in town for a visit - great place for a low-key bottle of beer, glass of wine, or a pre-game before hitting some other spots in the area. read more

Bottles is such a cool idea. My husband loves to try new beers so he loves the fact that they sell beers individually so he can try one before buying a 6 pack. They variety of beer and wine is very good! read more

This place is sweet. Not really a bar but not really a liquor store. They sell individual bottles of beer or create your own 6 packs. I'm not a wine person but they have a large selection. The beer selection is great and the atmosphere is relaxed. Perfect for an after dinner drink. I wished they had a larger outdoor patio though. read more

Bottles expanded into the space next door! There are now tables and big screen TV's and SPACE! Plus, the owner must read Yelp reviews because last time I went to Bottles, they indeed have displayed descriptions of their wines! Woot! Thanks, owner! Oh, and the girl that works there on Saturdays is named Vlodka. For those of you who are slow, that's Vodka with an L. And she works at a liquor store. Wha-whaat?! read more

Absolutely a great place. Bring your dog and positive attitude. This place is this best. Pick your beer. Pick your cigar. Pick your table. But smoke outside!. Great people will surround you. read more

Nice quiet place to stop and have a beer or glass of wine. Good selection of both. Comfortable seating areas.

Very nice place with an amazing beer selection. Bartenders were friendly and service was fast. You can tell that people who run this place love their job. We enjoyed our visit. read more

Loved it! Great atmosphere, friendly staff and a ton of beer and wine to choose from. Stayed for a couple out and the patio, found what we liked and took some home. This place just jumped to the top of my list for a laid back and casual night out! read more

Bottles is a great place to pick up many different wines and beers from all over the world. They also have several big block parties a year with catering and live music. Jerry and Julie Kulhanek are great proprietors. read more

this bar is more like a home than a place to forget your worries at and regret every decision you made the day after. everyone who works there is above friendly and VERY knowledgable about their product. if you like a certain drink that they don't have, they will recommend something akin to or better than what you wanted. there's no food but they do offer snacks, and you can order any delivery there no problem. this is definitely worth checking out, and Tom is definitely worth talking to. read more

Could use a bit more more selection I think. I don't understand why they don't have champagne either. Would like the people working there to have a bit more knowledge of the products they are selling as well. I really like the second room though as it is a nice place to sit and have a drink. read more

Great place. Staff was very nice and knowledgeable. Nice area to sit and enjoy a bottle of wine.

Love this store! In my opinion, Bottles is the best addition to downtown Lemont. The staff is always inviting, helpful and knowledgeable. There are always new varietals and they have great beer selection. The price might be a dollar or two higher than the supermarket but it is worth it...support local business! read more

Bottles is a very cool little place. Like others have mentioned its a liquor store/lounge. They just expanded and have a bunch more tables and couches. But they have a great selection of craft brew. The prices are great with beer from 2.50-4.00 max. It is a very laid back place, so its a great way to off a night with quality beer and then move on to some of the more rowdy places. They also have some nice cigars that you can enjoy outside with your drink. I love this place as they can order beer for me as well. The only thing that could push it to 6 stars is they dont have any draft beer. But the quantity and quality of the bottles they do have still get it to a 5 for me. read more

Excellent selection of beer and wine!!! Great place to bring your carryout food and have a few beers of a bottle of wine!!! Love it!!!
