I probably won't be shopping here again though, as last time I was here, the lady giving samples saw me...put her head down, said nothing, but asked the people after me if they wanted to try some. Could it be b/c I was black? Wearing a mask? Looked like a college student? All 3? Could be all 3 but definitely the1st one. Had she asked, I probably would have bought whatever it was she was selling. I realize the is a lot of ignorance in this town I have to get use to. But ask everyone.

One of the things I've always enjoyed was the friendly greeting of the checkout staff. Sadly to say, lately, this has not been a given.

Easy-peasy exit and back on the highway after you selected you libations for the day or evenings adventures. They have parking just for the business and they will always offer to help you to your car with your goods. yes folks I typically buy enough to need help.... On my last visit they were are friendly and helpful as usual. But what I like if you tell them you want to browse---they actually let you. I think they understand that some of us actually love to look at everything and read about it instead of being directed. I made two selections of wine to take to a friends house a red blend by Kendall Jackson I think called summation it was a big bold jammy wine and needed to breathe a tad---but good--probably better paired with food vs. just drinking... right around the 15.00 mark and then I got a little deal on a nice malbec that was marked down for quick sale....We didn't open that one so no comment. I do recommend this liquor store over the one in the Walmart plaza...that guy is a bit of a nuisance when I want to look he follows me around and yaps about all the places he has been and wine he has tried and frankly I like to take my time and make my own decisions...If i have a question I will ask....

I was pleased to see items stocked and actually prices a bit lower than the same items in the cities near where I live. I found my item(s) and made my way to the register. As I reached for my license, the cashier asked for a birthday and left it at this (fine with me but not sure as far as proper procedure). She also then made a comment when my card didn't work that "if I am just be patient, it will work" which was not something I want from anyone. I said I appreciated her comment but would prefer more direct instruction and she then helped my card get swiped through and I was on my way. Stocked product at fair prices but staff were not very welcoming or overly friendly.

This past Monday, a friend and I decided to go to Northfield Liquor Store on a detour. As it was…read morenot planned, I didn't take my passport with me, but I thought my foreign ID would be okay because it includes my picture, birthdate, and also that I was born in the US. The problem is NOT that my ID turned out to be unacceptable but the way the employees treated us. For example, the employees smiled to themselves when they didn't find my birthdate on the front. I tried to point out that it was on the back, but the employees refused to look. Then, one employee smiled smugly while deliberate moving the bottles outside our reach. Still smiling, she said "sorry," but this was clearly not about policy. This was a power play, one that was deeply insulting and racially charged. My friend asked if they could come back later without me, and the smiling employee asked another if they could. That other employee said my friend could not return before the next day, even though they had a valid US ID. If the store employees had been polite about explaining the policy, that would have been okay and we would have understood. Instead, rather than being professional, the employees prioritized asserting control over us through performance. I'm sharing this because I hope this kind of experience becomes less common in our community.

Bunch of 608 and Youngblood and some East Coast ones that you will never find in the Twin Cities. There is an attached bar which I have never set foot in until tonight.
