Cristy's has the best prices of any liquor store that I have been to, over the last 20 years. They consistently maintain their reasonable prices, from the cheapest brands, to the most premium, and these prices are not raised based on the time of year. In fact, they are not raised at all. Cristy's maintains an incredible and unusually wide selection of bourbon. They stock excellent whiskey/whiskies from distillers that few people have ever heard of, to some of the most sought after and difficult to obtain bottles that can be found on store shelves. These bourbons, like all of Cristy's other products, are heavily discounted. In addition to their excellent prices, Cristy's also offers tastings, brand ambassadors, food truck events, and some (definitely not all) very knowledgeable staff. For convenience, they also sell mixers, fruit garnishes, and cigars. read more

A good store for bourbon hunting. They have some good barrel picks and I saw bottles on the shelf that are "allocated" in other stores nearby. I got there on a Saturday around 9:30 AM and found a nice KC12 in their allocated drop. Not much of a Blanton's fan but they had Blantons and Weller SR (green label, also not a favorite of mine) that was sold out. The staff is helpful, patient, and makes the trip worth it. The whole demeanor of the store is relaxed without pressure to buy anything; I appreciate that element because I know what I want and if I have questions I'll ask them. I will come back in the future. read more

The man working there was EXTREMELY rude! I hate to leave a bad review but this is my first time in Knoxville and that was my first stop. It ruined the rest of the first day of my visit. His tone of voice was very demeaning and he just sat on a chair while I was at the counter and didn't even attempt to make eye contact. No smile, short responses like I was unwelcome. I'm not obnoxious or rude and I am super easy going so I don't think I deserved that treatment. There are so many liquor stores in the area so do yourself a favor and avoid this one at all costs! read more

Great selection and friendly staff, would visit again if I'm driving through Knoxville.

I've shopped at Cristy's for years. Always good service and good prices. I know they did very, very well during the COVID crisis. The store was always extremely busy. They previously gave a 10% discount on all cases. Recently they've cut it back to 5%. Why? Are they just getting greedy? Most will give a 10% discount on cases. Even the one closer to me that I didn't previously patronize because of my loyalty to Cristy's. Key word here is previously! Hate to say goodby to Cristy's. Full disclosure, they still give a 5% discount to senior citizens, per bottle if it's not on sale. read more

This liquor store has a lot of stock the prices seam reasonable the gentleman behind the counter was very friendly and helpful

Best bourbon variety in East Tennessee. Very reasonable pricing. Fantastic selection. Good people!!!

Slept. On. I swear, Cristy's will have the most off-the-wall selections. Every time I pop in, I end up browsing for possibly a little bit too long. Their bourbon and whiskey selections are pretty amazing, with really good prices. They also have a solid wine selection, same thing, with really decent prices. The only reason they're not a five star is lack of beer selection. With how great the variance of their spirits selection, I'd love to see their beer picks! read more

If you want to find great quality bourbon or good prices in general, this is the place around Knoxville. They're specifically knowledgeable about bourbon and often have really rare bottles come through the door. read more

Extremely rude manager. Staff is extremely inattentive and slow. The prices are high. My product was mislabeled on the shelf but I was ready to leave the store and just took it. I won't be back. read more

Stopped in to check them out and see what bourbons they had. Good selection, some single barrel store picks and each of the employees I spoke with were knowledgeable and friendly and offered their recommendations. If I am ever in Knoxville again I will stop back in. read more

Great little store with a non-chain feel. Prices are right and they have a nice rare bottle bourbon selection.

Great selection, even better prices and very helpful and attentive staff! Found some hard-to-find bottles of bourbon, rye, rum and vodka at below market prices compared to most cities we've been. read more
