If you want 7 bottles of the same mass-produced stuff, they may not be your place, but if you want to sample variety, they are amazing!

The sign at the entrance said, "20% off all American white wines."…read moreI bought my favorite local white wine as I have many times in the past. When I checked out, the price did not seem discounted. When I asked about it, I was given a retail price that was larger than I have ever paid for this wine. With the supposed 20% discount, the price was the same as it always was. They claimed it was the distributor, but when I checked another liquor store, the price from the distributor had not gone up. So they raised the price and then gave me a "discount". I will be shopping elsewhere in the future.

They had a good selection of beer from real close, from Massachusetts, and of course from the rest of the country/world. * Walk in cold storage in the back. * Didn't partake since we were on the way out of town, but there was wine tasting going on. The store carries liquor, wine, and beer. * Friendly staff. Cons: * I do wish local stuff had been a little better designated. There was local and local-ish kind of all over the cold storage room, so it was a little hard to figure out at first for us out of towners.

The thing that attracted me to this liquor store is its location. I've been here a couple of times…read morenow and while the selection is impressive ( all depending on what you're looking for, I enjoy beer and wine) I can't say that I've had to best experience with the service. I love the beer selection here, and its a great place to experiment and try new things to expand your palate, if that's something your into, and sometimes they have some killer sales going on ( I find these sales to be random). However there are other liquor, beer and or wine stores in the western mass area that have better customer service and a more knowledgeable staff, perhaps that's just my experience. One last thing that's bothered me, I've just moved up into this area from Texas so naturally I have an out of state license and anytime I go to the register to check out I am always asked for a second form of identification. I understand that perhaps some college kids will buy a fake id so it didn't faze me the first couple of times. What got to me was that I felt that I was being a loyal customer and coming in , what I'd consider, fairly often. Enough to recognize certain staff members at the register, but I was always asked for a second form of id ( which all I've got is my old university id) from the same people over and over and over again. So I say that while this is a great place to browse for someone who might just want something cheap or maybe is looking for something different and wants a store that has a wide selection this is a great place to go to. But if you're in the market for something specific I wouldn't recommend going to other locations where the staff might be more knowledgable.

As someone who's been on both ends of nonprofit organizations - the person in need and the person providing it - this was very a jarring. Needless to say, I don't exactly feel welcome coming in to make a purchase either now if this is how their employees speak to people.
