A very thorough offering of just about any wine/liquor you can imagine. Clerks are very knowledgeable

This is one of the better liquor stores in the Memphis metro area. They have a wide and varied selection of spirits, wines , beers, and accoutrements. Whenever I'm in the neighborhood, I try to stop by, as I'll usually find something that my household hasn't yet tasted. I'm especially glad that they have a respectable selection of nonalcoholic beers to choose from. The employees here are usually very helpful, and the tastings that some of the purveyors have had are well-received. read more

Restocking the bar for next month's birthday celebration with several friends from Jamaica and Florida. Buster's had every thing we needed and the brands we prefer at good prices: Appleton Estate Signature Jamaican Rum, Courvoisier VSOP Cognac, Gentleman Jack Bourbon, Maker's Mark Bourbon, Hiram Walker Apricot Brandy. Plus, the Staff is ALWAYS so Attentive and Helpful!!! read more

If you looking for something special to serve, mixology, personal, good prices knowledgeable Busters got you online orders or delivery!!

Hands down best liquor store in Memphis in my humble opinion! They have the best of your average liquor selections in the city. I love coming in and just browsing for things I have never seen before. I prefer Bourbon/Whiskey and Beer and they have plenty of both to choose from. They don't have anything like Blanton's or Pappy Van Winkle that I have seen but almost all other "regular domestic" selections are available. They also have a fantastic wine selection! I think they will even order you something they don't have if you are looking for it. I don't do many other spirits besides the above mentioned but there sure are a lot of bottles on the shelves. Im sure they have something that will tickle your fancy. They even have a "tasting center" over by the beer coolers. They say they have every bottle available for sample. Although I haven't personally challenged them and tried each and every spirit they have, I have considered it. I may just make a day out of it someday and get wasted a half ounce at a time on samples. Anyone else wanna waste a Saturday?? Ha!! That Kendrick Lamar song "Swimming Pools (Drank)" comes to mind. I wonder if they will let me bring in a kiddie pool?!?!? read more

Best prices is town; great whiskey selection. A nice tasting bar in the corner with helpful staff.

I ordered wine and rum to make a drink for the Inauguration. I ordered online, so I don't have any comments about the in-person shopping experience. I ordered online too late to pick up for the day but received confirmation the next morning that my order was ready for pick up. When I arrived, I was a little confused about where I was supposed to start the line, but not to worry. I pulled into a numbered spot on the north side of the building. I called the store to let them know that I was waiting. A staff member came out, verified my ID, and gave me my order. Even with them being busy in the middle of the day, I was there for about 5-6 minutes total and on my way!

Rude and unprofessional staff. I have been in everytime I travel to Memphis but the staff has declined greatly. Mainly check out was rude and without knowledge. I asked about a couple Bourbon choices but they weren't knowledgeable and asked for help but the manager was insulting and condescending. They used to have such a professional staff, there was a short Blonde woman who was very helpful but last time I was there I was told she was gone. probably a reflection of the business. read more

Great Staff! Ted was a great help in navigating the store picks. Will definitely be back next time in Memphis.

I have been a Buster's customers for years. They have the most extensive inventory and the best prices. When my wife, who does not drink and has only a limited knowledge of alcoholic beverages, asked me what I wanted for Christmas I told her I wanted a bottle of Chartreuse. I had tried to add Chartreuse to my last Buster's delivery, but they were out. Now my wife lives for Christmas and works very hard to be sure everyone has the perfect gift. It was very frustrating for her not to be able secure that elusive green stuff. Trusting Buster's, she asked them if there was a reasonable substitute for Chartreuse and they recommended Dolin Genepy le Chamois. The staff member helping my wife asked her to wait one moment while he checked the stock. He returned with a bottle of Chartreuse from the manager on duty, Lauren, (I suspect from her own stock). As thrilled as I am to get the bottle for my bar, I am so happy to see my wife have her Christmas made more memorable. Buster's staff is the reason I keep coming back. If you are shopping somewhere else, you are missing one of Memphis' best shopping experiences. read more

Buster's is a very large liquor store I visited recently to check out their bourbon selections. I saw on their website a large number of interesting store picks. It was quite difficult to locate them all because the floor layout wasn't great. It would have been nice if they were all centrally displayed but perhaps this just isn't possible. read more

Great selection of whiskey and helpful customer service!! Can't wait to visit the new location

I went here looking for a particular wine I wanted to try, but they didn't have it ugh. I asked the gentleman about the wine and he said that he had been trying to get it but haven't been able too. This place is huge and has a very wide selection of wine and hard liquor for all your needs. I ended up trying a different wine, I was curious bc it's a sweet wine but the percentage of alcohol was 10% compared to most sweet when I'm in the mood usually has 5-7%. Wine wasn't bad.. not your normal sweet wine it has more of a alcohol taste. Staff is very helpful in assisting you with your needs. read more

Service is always the best here. Staff is always knowledgeable and willing to help! I always go to Buster's before I go anywhere else.

This pandemic has been difficult for all, so I decided to host a virtual happy hour with my staff. I went to Buster's about 45 minutes before my "meeting" (I live 2 minutes away) to get some wine, and found out quickly I needed to order online. So I ordered online from my car and called them to let them know I was outside for pickup. At first they told me it would take up to 45 minutes to be ready, but I told them about my happy hour happening in 40 minutes, and they ensured me they'd be out in 15 minutes. They lived up to that promise and probably showed up 5 minutes early! Seriously thank you to this staff and their team for stepping up when they really didn't have to and making sure their customers are taken care of!!! You guys are the best! #shoplocal read more

Buster's has anything you would like to drink. HUGE inventory and great prices. I go out of my way to buy wine and liquor there. Great staff too. Knowledgeable and friendly. They also carry your purchase to your car. read more

Literally ruined my best friends wedding. Do not purchase large online orders from here for events. If you're buying from in store - that's fine - but DO NOT purchase large online orders. You will be very upset. - You will also be getting another review from the Groom - That extra hour taken from his VERY VERY much complicated matters for his wedding. Since you want to act like you know how everything came out. I don't understand how you can call to try and verify if someone can pick it up- BUT can't do it when the best man shows up for the order. The manager was extremely sensitive and passive aggressive- she literally said "I'm not talking to you if you're going to curse at me- when NO ONE CURSED - I've never had this happen to me- I truly felt like all she saw was an upset black person and chose to just "swipe" me. There were several ways this could have been worked out. We will never spend money with you again. Furthermore- the whole entire wedding party is also upset with your company- as they were informed of why we had complications. I do not appreciate your response at all. Bad sorry management. As I stated before DO NOT BUY ONLINE ORDERS FROM THIS PLACE.. read more

I came back here again! They still have same sale beers that they were sale last month. Actually they are pumpkin beers. The selection is not that big. Their mix-match is a little bit pricier. Most 6packs are about $10 but individuals bottles start at $2. They have tons of wine bottles. I picked up one bottle of organic white wine today. About $10. I checked in on yelp, so I got 20%off for this lovely wine. The staffs are friendly and nice. I wish they posted the original prices of sale wines just for information and had more kinds of beers! read more

My wife had been seeking out some less common bottles to give as a gift. I knew we'd be passing through Memphis, and online reviews said this was a great place. AND IT WAS! An employee named Leigh came up to us in the aisle and asked if we needed help, and then spent the time to actually help us find what we sought. Their selection is great, but their customer service is spectacular! read more

Selection and prices are OK but nothing spectacular. 10% off a case of wine but not on "sale" items. "Sale" prices are same or higher than grocery store. When I questioned it, the associate and manager made me feel it was my fault for not knowing although we had asked about the discount and the sale exception was not mentioned Left feeling taken advantage of. read more

I went into Buster's today looking for a high end Bourbon for a gift. When I inquired about the inventory of a rare bourbon, I was told point blank by (what I assume was) a manager that "I do not have time right now to look for that type of thing for you, but I'll give you my card if you want to email me a list of what you are looking for." Though I was somewhat taken aback by this, the store was not that busy, I pressed a bit, saying that I was willing to spend up to several thousand dollars for the right bottle, but was not a bourbon expert and was hoping for some advice. At this the manager just smirked and said "There is a pecking order for these kind of things and you are not part of that." Apparently new customers, even those willing to spend a considerable amount of money, are simply not welcome at Buster's. I left and went to several other stores, where I was treated like I was a valuable customer, even if they did not have the bottle I was looking for. On the plus side, the store was large and appeared to be well stocked and clean, but if you are looking for a welcoming atmosphere and just the basics of good customer service I highly encourage you to give another establishment your business. Unless of course you are one of the elites who "are in the pecking order" and warrant it! You have been warned. read more

Impressed with the selection and prices here. Had some good beer choices and a nice whiskey selection. The mixers and charcuterie options were very cool and somewhat unexpected on my behalf which I thought was neat. We even bought a package of bresaola, which we later found out came from a local butcher - very cool! The prices are super reasonable as well, nothing was priced higher than normal from what I observed. read more

My bank has fewer security guards than Buster's! . . and I appreciate it, gotta keep that Scotch aisle safe. Buster's is tops in Memphis, nice variety of everything: Microbrews, Scotch, Tequila, wacky liqueurs in silly bottles, fine wine. . . .and wine that even I can afford. An efficient checkout system and attentive cashiers to provide direction (a.k.a. shout over the noise of people excitedly shopping for booze) to the correct till to keep it all moving like one big happy machine. Every time I am here, I witness a Buster's employee kindly, patiently assisting a customer who wants to choose just the right gift or wine to impress future their in-laws, asking all the right questions and working within their budget. Nice place, approved! read more

My wife went there a few weeks back looking for my birthday gift, Bardstown Discovery #5, she spent a few minutes looking for it and found a box of it on the floor in the bourbon aisle, she asked one of the employees if they could open it and give her a bottle, in the process, they basically told her someone brought the box out by mistake, And told her the Dreaded, "We are saving those for our GOOD Customers" my wife was totally embarrassed and publicly humiliated by refusing to take her money in front of the whole store and other customers. She went down the Street to Joe's and they hooked her up! FYI I have spent over 3k at Busters since pandemic started, been going there regularly since 95, won't ever spend a dime in there again!!! Also my wife sent the store an email explaining her experience and embarrassment, never heard back, been roughly 3 weeks! I am adding this in case management or owner wants to address why we didn't bring this issue to their attention, she tried, no one seems to care. I hate writing bad reviews especially during COVID, however I felt forced to, due to the lack of empathy on their part. The Good News is we rediscovered a Memphis Jewel (Joe's liquor on poplar ave),that still has excellent customer service. After my wife left Buster's she immediately went to Joe's walked in the store and saw "Allocated Bottle" on the shelf, due to the prior experience and embarrassment 10 minutes earlier, she asked the employee, "Can I buy that" the man just nicely chuckled and said," Mam you can buy anything on my shelves or floor". Of course she explained why she would ask such strange question. The gentleman working there made her feel much better and will get my future business. read more

Buster's is always crowded, but have no fear. You'll be in and out in a second, that is, if you aren't busy mulling over the huge selection they offer. I've never had a bad experience in Buster's- in fact, I've had the opposite. There are always at least two staffers that offer to help me when I peruse the wine aisles, and the check out stand, as Jolynna said, is so adequately staffed so that it is never more than two customers deep. I usually opt for wine, and Buster's is one of the few places I can find one of my faves, Rodney Strong Knotty Pines red zin. I always check out the variety though to see if there are any new flavors that I'd like to try. There are plenty of notecards attached to the counters to describe the selections, as well staff picks. I don't buy a lot of liquor, but I have shopped for gifts, and their liquor selection seems to be quite satisfactory as well. Buster's also published a magazine that features various wines and liquors that you can pick up at the counter. read more

Awesome/vast (and somewhat overwhelming) selection of every wine or spirit you could ever want. Friendly staff. Prices are reasonable. I'm a cheap wine connoisseur and boy do I have a lot to choose from! Parking can be annoying (especially to the west and north of the entrance) but it is because they are always busy (and that is a good thing). I like it that they get you in and out with a quickness. read more

After work on Friday, I stopped at Buster's to pick up a bottle of wine and Tequila. After getting the Tequila from the front of the store,I walked to the back for the bottle of wine. I immediately noticed the security guard began following me. I PURCHASED both items. The security guard followed me because I am black and assumed I was attempting to steal. This is not the first time that I have felt unwelcome at Buster's. Rest assured that I will not be patronizing this place again. read more

Without a doubt one of the best run wine and liquor stores in the United States. Have been shopping here over 30 years and never had anything but the most courteous service, informative and helpful employees. Their choice of wine and liquor is unmatched in the Mid-South region. read more

Great selection. Huge store ! Friendly safe. Great area ! Parking can be a little crazy at busy hours.

Good selection and had everything we needed for our weekend vacation in Memphis. We will remember this place next year when we visit again!

I happened to live just a 7 min walk to this Memphis Institution... Although I've never walked there, they have the best selection of wine and one of the largest selections of "anything alcohol" (Tons of local brew too) in TN... cool owner (down to earth and on the sale room floor sometimes) and staff is always friendly and knowledgeable. I left my card there once and it was ready for me the next day without hassle. Good folks. I know that leaving a review for a liquor store sounds weird but, they are a Memphis institution and I am an upstanding citizen that loves their service. I only go to the other place when I hit the front door too late. Edit, one week later. One skinny, curly headed, rude check out girl (named Sidney) treated me like I've never been in there and a piece of garbage.... Not everyone can be a good example of what Josh has going over there. Reality. read more

Buster's Liquors & Wines - Robert Mondavi, my favorite wine.... - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

Back in town and need of a bottle of bourbon, I knew just where to go. The angle parking out front is still a mess, so I proactively parked on the side and walked a few extra feet. Once inside, it was easy to find an employee to point me to the bourbon, I grabbed the first Four Roses I saw, and headed to the checkout. Now, they've remodeled the register area, so it is much bigger, but it was a little confusing about where the line started. But no worries, I stood there for just a moment, was joined by someone behind me (who had the case he was carrying taken and held at the counter so he didn't have to hang onto it), and then rapidly checked out. So Buster's, keep up the great work! read more

6 out of 5 stars. Buster's is consistently awesome. The staff has always been helpful and knowledgeable, and during the pandemic they have been amazing at keeping it as safe as possible. The contactless curbside pick up is super easy and relaxed, I've never waited more than a couple of minutes. And after learning that they don't let anti-maskers in their store without a face covering makes me want to never go anywhere else. Thank you for keeping things safe! read more

I must say the service at Buster's is TOP NOTCH - especially their delivery service. We were also able to get items here that aren't carried anywhere else. I can't thank them enough for delivering during Covid-19. They are so responsive and quick! THANK YOU BUSTER'S!!!! read more

I love this place. I love the fact they have varieties of the mini shots bottles. Every time I come visit this is the first place I stop. The prices are reasonable & affordable. My favorite liquor store in the Memphis area. read more

I frequent Buster's every week. Today, I encountered passive aggressive conversation while checking out my items. Not so slick when cashiers and security had something to say. WoW...mind you business please...did it ever occur to others that people do not always shop for themselves. I'm turn off by the experience today to find a more respectful business to patronage. read more

Went in and they didn't have what I wanted but it happens sometimes. Got some of liquors there and spent $300. Short haired woman checking me was shirt and rude with me like she was mad at the world and I was bothering her. If that's the attitude they are going to have then I'll just find another place for my money or be spent. read more
