Great beer selection (I've chatted with people about the familiar phenomenon of just staring at so many different choices with mouth agape), a focus on local, easy online ordering for delivery or pickup, and the best team in the biz. They've been a distributor staple in Philly for years. It is family-owned now and a special part of Philly's beer history. Did you know they also sell Milk Jawn ice cream here? Hot tip! Did you know they sell boozy freezy slushies here year round? HOT TIP. Did you know you can also grab all your surfsides/canned cocktails here? Hot tip. Stone's does an amazing job highlighting lesser known and marginalized brewers as well. Call me a BIG FAN cause I am. Go to Stone's!

When I was about to end the call and say I'll order elsewhere, I was told "wait, we can make it work". Well they didn't. And had the entire party waiting for them to deliver. Again, can't deliver prior to noon? Not an issue, I can order from 10 other places. But when you tell me you can meet that time, don't lie to me and ruin the rest of the party. Nothing against this store personally, I just know they CANNOT DELIVER.

They…read morehave a limited selection, but their prices are pretty good and less than other stores locally. Here's the issue. They are NOT friendly. They stop you the moment you walk in and very sternly talk AT you for not standing in line the "right" way even though there are literally no signs where they want you. It feels like you are being watched constantly and not trusted. I've come back because of their prices and have felt the same way each time. So although the prices are great- This might not be the place to shop if you are sensitive to being scolded.

The building was so big I expected to walk into a real life brewtopia. I was wrong. The selection was quite lacking. It had very few if any dank beers besides the locally brewed favorites (Yards, PBC, etc). Even the cheep beers were a little expensive which was quite a turn-off for me. If you need something basic and you're close by stop in. But if you want something nice you might want to explore your other options.

Tonight, a man drank for hours outside throwing his trash everywhere, then vomited repeatedly on sidewalk and street.

When asked to do something about this behavior on their property, the owner does nothing. They don't even apologize. They stay open later than posted hours as well. I watch them close up and leave for the night, most times without picking up any trash. They are a disgrace of a business to our community.
