Terrific selection and amazing service. They even do events for customer appreciation including free beer and food including a raffle next week. You can make a pick six for a decent price with 20% off if you choose six beers of your choosing. Great spot to pick up mutiple beers for the summer time. Lastly, they have quite a few food snack items if your looking for last minute snacks to go with for any parties your throwing. read more

I was a devotee of Worldwide on Green Lane, but then my boy Bob up and sold it, so I have begun to spread my beer monies out in the neighborhood; enter Javies Located way down on Umbria, this spot is pretty much out of the way for me so I had always avoided it. That is no longer the case. Great beer variety (and for the most part the cheapest in the neighborhood), an extremely friendly and helpful staff, and a tapped keg on hand for you to quench your thirst, plus they even hooked up a charity event I was just part of with discount beer. If the surplus of beers of all kinds isn't enough to make this a cool spot for you, perhaps the owner's customer appreciation days will do it. A couple times a year (with advanced notice) Javies has CADs, wherein booze is offered to help you enjoy the games held there (beer pong/flip cup style festivities). As an added bonus, in the short time leading up to the party, every time you buy beer you get a raffle ticket for a chance to win some of that cool promotional swag the brewers unload on them, then the day of, the drawings are held until there is no gear left. They also do a reward program with spending eventually equaling discounts, but I have yet to take advantage of it so I don't know the ins and outs. ***Added 2/19/11*** Yesterday Mama Nature fluked out a spring-time-in-winter afternoon with 69 degree weather (third warm day in a row), and that meant many of the local spots that try to save money by shutting off their coolers for the season were selling lukewarm suds (Worldwide, Speedy's). We came here and were able to grab a case of forties (which those others seem to no longer carry) cold because the ice boxes were still pumpin' that arctic air. Added June 2012 THEY DELIVER! Only spot around I know of that does this read more

Nothing beats the prices of total wine in Jersey, but Jacked is my go to place in PA. Good selection. Great customer service. Pricing isn't bad for PA prices. I've been using them for years. read more

Terrible customer service. I ordered a keg on Monday, went to go pick it up on Saturday and they "dropped the ball" and gave it away. They refused to give any type of discount. read more

Love this place. It is my go to beer shop in Roxborough/Manayunk. First off this place is massive and bigger than any other distributor in the area. Second off, unlike other places this case store labels the price on each case so it's not a surprise on what you are paying when you get to the register. They have a descent selection of micros, I'm not gonna call it the best micro selection in the area but good enough. Finally, you can always find a killer special on a case of certain domestics. Bottom line this place has the best prices and selection. read more

Super helpful staff. For a beer distributor, this place has a huge and diverse selection. They are responsive to their customers and will start carrying a product if enough people request. I'm not sure what it does yet, but they have a frequent shopper card - I'm very curious about this. I know I asked for some specific craft brews, but they didn't have what I was looking for (Great Divide anything, Yards Saison, or Omegang not a variety pack). Only because I didn't get exactly what I wanted do I have to hold the rating down to 4 stars. read more

Very impressed with the level of service and willingness to help here. I have a kegorator with a smaller CO2 tank than normal which makes it difficult to fill. My go to distributor can't accommodate this. Javie's was more than willing to get it filled for me and call me when it was complete. ETA was originally 2 weeks, but I got a call in 4 days saying it was done. They also ordered me a keg and got it delivered ASAP. Great selection, very friendly staff (Hannah), and customer focused. I will be back often! read more

Great selection of beers, ciders, and other specialty things like spiked seltzer, hard soda, etc. Cases, 12 packs, 6 packs, singles, create-your-own 6 packs, cans, bottles, ice - you name it! One of the best beer selections I've ever seen. Prices are standard for in the city (high but to be expected). Small parking lot and super nice employees who have even helped me carry things too my car. Love Javies! read more

five stars are reserved only for the best of the best. if javies were a pilot, it wouldn't just be at top gun - it would be maverick. great selection. better prices than anywhere else i have seen. spacious, well maintained store. samples. good people... won't go anywhere else. read more

SHADY SHADY SHADY I used to love this place, their selection is phenomenal and their prices are reasonable. Two recent incidents will make me never shop here again. I purchased a Southern Tier Super variety pack a month ago only to find out the beer inside was over a year old. Nick, the owner, was understanding and swapped out the case with a new one for me and everything was fine. Tonight my wife went and bought a case of Evil Eye Pa. I opened the case and noticed the packed on date on the six pack holders read February 2013. I held one of the bottles up to the light and found sediment galore. I guess the reason they have such a selection is they let the beer sit on the floor for way longer than they should. Most distributors will offer beer at a discounted rate when it hits a certain age, but not this place. They'll keep it at full price until it's gone! We took this case back and I told Nick that we got ANOTHER old case of beer and we just wanted our money back. He made no apologies or efforts to keep our business. read more

Love this place! The staff is great and we are loving the rewards program- awesome beer selection too!

For when I need that case of beer, this is my spot. It also helps that I live a stone throws away too. Very friendly and great selections.

Navies is the best great staff always ready to help they know their beer prices are great on pay day walking home from work stop in and get a case read more

Amazing Place. Great selection, reasonable prices and wonderful staff and owner. Nick, the owner, hosts at least 2 customer appreciation parties a year. He usually advertises them early on. During these parties there are raffles in which all of the whacky marketing objects he receives from Beer producers are given away. There's usually something extra, such as Phillies or Sixers tickets. Also, the beer is free but is usually limited to whatever marketing representative offers to come that time. At the last even Nick played drinking games with us and even brought out some of his own beer when the free stuff ran out. Nice guy. There's also a members card in which you earn 1 point for every dollar spent. These points can eventually be redeemed for $10 off or other prizes. Quite nice. read more

A great beer distributor that caters to all tastes with a selection ranging from local craft beers to imports and the crappy stuff (if you're into that). The staff is friendly and helpful and if they don't have what you want they'll try their hardest to get it for you from the distributor. read more
