Beware and please read the fine print. We wanted to order Donna's pickel beer and miss read the price. Who in their right mind thinks two x 12 ounce beers cost $38.00. We thought we were ordered two twelve packs because most liquor stores charge $15.00/six pack just beware and to Hilltop, I hope it's worth ruining a potential relationship. We won't ever order from here again. read more

Great little local store for this and that. Good selection of wines. Friendly staff working the register. 55 Thai restaurant is tucked in the back of this shop. Nice combo of a general store. read more

This store never carries what it shows on UberEats. And if they don't have it they pretend that can't delete the item so they send you some other random item that you don't want read more

Came in again and received excellent service. Great selection on everything from drinks, snacks and top shelf liquor. Easy in and out parking and well lit. Definitely can't beat the location and convenience. Whether you're on a lunch or dinner break or heading downtown for a concert, give Hilltop a chance at your business. I'm sure you'll be back again and again just like me. read more

Convenient when you need to buy a beer to go with lunch at whatever dining place is open across the street. As of 11/30/24, that would be Jose's Pollos Estilo Acapulco. read more

Yikes this place has gone downhill! Used to love ordering a bottle of wine from here but now they send the wrong bottle, cancel the order and rip you off with a "restocking fee" read more

I have always came to this liquor and have had good experiences ! Today though wow a female was there i had never seen before and boy did she have an attitude and was just mad at and over customers. Very bad service. She was cursing to her self for some reason. She was very rude to me and due to that service i will not be coming anymore ! She needs to get fired asap ! read more

This place is great! The people are super friendly and if you're a regular they will even take special requests on items. I was disappointed one time when I went in and saw they didn't have my favorite ice cream flavor and they actually ordered some! I felt very special. It's a small store, but they carry all the latest and greatest snacks and drinks. read more

Oh it's been years since that last review and it's time for an update! I still live nearby and I still buy lottery tickets here. Only now I drink booze! This means sometimes you can find me here, staring for too long at the selection wondering which one is a good one for the random cocktail I've been inspired to make. Luckily there are friendly dudes behind the counter who are happy to help me know which one is better for straight drinking and which is a good mixer. But don't let the name fool you- they've got more than booze and liqueurs. Though I will note the alcohol selection is nice for a small shop. There's a lot of wine, good (and fancy) bottles of booze, even some rice wines, and plenty of beer of both the regular and craft varieties. There's also the usual selection of drinks found at any mini mart- sodas, waters, and sugar juice and also they have some frozen treats, lots of chips, snacky nuts, and candy. By candy I mean the usual type, but also a sizable selection of those spicy Mexican candies like the tasty fruit flavored gummies covered in chamoy. And there's a tiny pantry stock with things like ranch dressing if you're in a pinch or just really gotta have a bottle for dipping your potato chips. I won't judge. They've remodeled the shop in the years I've been coming here. Not only is the inside nice, but the extra lighting outside is great too. It's officially safe enough to stop in late. Between the good selection, the friendly staff, and my desire to become an instant millionaire with zero work on my part- I'll keep shopping here. Nearby and need some liquor or some snacks? Hilltop has you covered! read more

Nicest guys in the world. Great vibes. Love to have this as my local neighborhood corner store.

To Hilltop Liquer Customers: My Wife & I buy our Spirits from Hilltop, as Gifts and Our Personal Bar (see attachments) Hilltop's Selection of Spirits is 2nd to None. Our MOST Favorite is Guillotine Vodka (www.GuillotineVodka.com). What makes Guillotine Special is that they come from the mingling of white and black grapes...Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, and Chardonnay, Oak Barrel Age, chosen from vineyards in the Aÿ-Champagne wine region of France. Our Friends, Colleagues, Relatives, and Ourselves Enjoy Both Guillotine Originale & Guillotine Heritage, but the Amber Colored Heritage is Exceptional, and Our Most Favorite. We are looking forward to when Guillotine imports its Petrossian Caviar-Infused Guillotine Vodka into the U.S. Hilltop Liquers has indicated they will have it imminently. Extremely Satisfied Hilltop Liquer Customers Dr. Reid & Simi Jilek read more

This is not your average liquor store. I was impressed by how clean and organized the layout was. Great selection of spirits as well!

Best liquor store in San Diego! Excellent customer service, best prices, and great selection.

This is my favorite local store. The service is always so friendly and welcoming and they have a huge variety of drinks and snacks. Shevy especially is so wonderful. He remembers everyone's names, what they like, inquires how you're doing and will look into stocking any of your favorite drinks even if they aren't already carrying it. He's a very special man! read more

My favorite liquor store in the city. I go out of my way to come here because I love these guys!

Chevy is a great guy! He runs the store here. I order weekly from them and he always make sure I'm taken care of. Thank you for your business! read more

Horrible place. The guy that was at the front was verbally abusive, condescending, and insulting. He actually made a sexual remark to me after insulting me for 3 minutes. I would never go here again. Stay away from this place. read more

Best little store in town. Their customer service really is excellent. Chevvy and Selena are lovely and kind people.

We are last minute door dashers especially when it comes to alcohol. They always accept our last minute orders and come through! Although it was a little more expensive, we pay for the convenience and really appreciate the customer service. read more

What do you say about an average liquor store other than "it's average." It has things inside that will get you drunk if consumed in mass quantities, but I wouldn't exactly call the selection stellar. Very basic for beers, with slim pickens for local brews. Spirit wise selection is the same with a whole lot of Smirnoffs and a huge lack of anything out of the ordinary. I'm not above it, but if I want anything other than what you'd bring to a frat party I'll prob go elsewhere. read more

This place is amazing. Always has the best selection out of anywhere I've been. Shevi and Alan are two of the most helpful and caring people I've ever met. They are always very courteous and are willing to help you with your every need. I come here purely or the customer service those gentlemen provide. read more

They have a very good selection! Lots of items you can't find elsewhere. They're friendly and parking is easy. Very clean and organized inside too. read more

I ordered a vape on Postmates and I spent $50 including delivery fees and tip and the vape was all burnt tasting. horrible! The vape itself was about $35 and definitely a rip off. Everywhere else I got this vape at I've never had this problem. read more

These guys are always friendly and never fail to make me feel welcomed. Any review with less than 5 stars are usually lying.

Amazing place to stop in and grab whatever you need. Good liquor selection and they have some decent beer and wine as well. Snacks and other non alcoholic drinks as well as tobacco are also available for purchase. There's a small parking lot here as well, coming down 25th st you can park real quick and run in. Definitely recommend going here. read more

chevy! tyler and i, we love your outstanding personality and service. quality lic!!!!!!!

I ordered some items through door dash, when one of the items wasn't available I requested a refund. When the refund didn't come through I called and was given excellent service by the manager Chevy, he made sure the item was replaced along with some juice and ice. He definitely went above and beyond to provide fantastic service! Will definitely order again! read more

Excellent liquor store! The best in the area. They just completed a major renovation and the place looks incredible. Great selection and friendly staff. Good selection. If you are a frequent customer and they don't have something you want let them know and they will add it to their shelves. read more

10/5!!!! I love coming here!! Chevy and his brother are the best guys ever. Always asking me how I am and giving me the coolest suggestions. Love these guys! Never gonna stop coming no matter where I go read more

Such good service, have every type of drink you'll ever want! This place was amazing, if you're in San Diego, don't hesitate to drop by!

Salesman was insanely shady and douchy, my boyfriend and I went in to buy liquor, we bought two packages of hard seltzer which were marked at 10.99, no other packages were labeled with a price. We went up to the register and bought them, after the purchase went through the salesman laughed and said "the bigger pack is cheaper" he didn't tell us this before we bought it because it said "I have to make money somehow." This was insanely unprofessional considering 1) we didn't ask 2) he didn't suggest otherwise before the purchase went through 3) the packages were not labeled so that the salesman who acted like the owner could gloat about "making money"? It was silly and immature. Would not recommend this place unless you want to deal with immaturity and unprofessionalism. read more
