This is a pretty cool liquor store. They make their own drink mix bags with mini bottles. There's a ton of different options and it was really fun to look through them all. They also have fun names. Don't forget to grab your cup with ice. I also liked that they had a section of black-owned spirit brands. They were sampling a black owned wine brand while I was there which was really nice. Super friendly service. This was more than just a liquor store stop, but kind of an experience. read more

OST Liquor - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Houston, Texas

How cool is this concept?! We visited OST LIQUOR as we got word that they have multiple options of packaged specialty cocktails I will call them to make your personal cocktail. They have a variety of tequila, whisky, bourbon, cognac, etc. options to choose from. It appears that most of the traffic that visits the establishment is for the packaged drinks! They also offer two free cups, one with ice and one as a mixer to make the drink. We were fortunate to be assisted by a local who was with our group and assisted with pointing out the freezers and grabbing the free cups. There aren't any workers assisting on the floor to answer questions. read more

A Black owned liquor store in Third Ward! I visited for a private event (podcast recording today). Even though they were closed for business, I am so excited to come back and buy some spirits and wine. They feature liquors and wines by Black owned brands, small batch quality distilleries, as well as common global brands. My favorite thing is the "double cup" drinks they offer. The Double Cup is two cups, one cup includes ice, and numerous options for the perfect cocktail. I highly recommend the Donnie MF Houston! The owners are very knowledgeable and love to pass on the education to customers. They offer tastings and I look forward to checking those out too! read more

This is a great Black owned liquor store that offers a wide variety of top shelf liquors and they have an in store cocktail selection that will knock your socks off! They are authentically named & delicious too! You get everything you need to mix your drink in one bag including the two cups with ice! The staff is very friendly and helpful. They are not distracted and rude like you would find at other small businesses and the young lady working that night gave me great selection advice. If you're looking for gifts for friends or you're having a girls trip stop by and peruse their cocktail selection. You won't be disappointed. read more

Where do I start. I've lived in this neighborhood for a while now and OST Liquor has been one of the great additions to the community. They have seamlessly integrated into the heart of this area. OST Liquor has revolutionized the way locals perceive their neighborhood liquor store experience. Before their arrival, residents would have to settle for whatever selection was available locally or drive out to find products we were looking for. I was told that the premise behind OST was to change the stigma on local liquor stores. No bulletproof glass, quality selection, and knowledgeable associates. No offense to the other places but I would prefer to shop comfortably. It creates an inviting and open atmosphere that fosters a sense of trust and comfort among patrons. I enjoy going there to pick up things and getting great suggestions for things I would not have been hip to. On numerous occasions, I've had the pleasure of discovering new and intriguing libations. It transforms a routine shopping trip into a nice exploration of the ever-changing spirit market. A popular feature at OST Liquor is their carefully crafted bundles, designed to cater to the demand for convenience and hassle-free choices. The packages, consisting of all the components for all the popular drink creations, cater to the needs of those seeking grand and go drink options. Beyond the everyday retail offerings, they also offer group cocktail classes. It is a great way to engage with the community through education of a $627 billion market. Attending one of the sessions is always a fun and rewarding experience. Not just for the delicious drinks created but for the fellowship and insight shared among the community of attendees. You get to talk with some professionals and some spirit entrepreneurs. Great to hear people's stories about how they got to where they are now. These classes serve as an example of OST's dedication to not only providing quality products but also creating an enriching environment for individuals to learn and appreciate the science of mixology. All in all, OST Liquor has gone above and beyond the conventional confines of a local liquor store, developing into an influential and integral part of our neighborhood. Its impact goes beyond just providing libations; it has fostered a sense of community, knowledge-sharing, and an appreciation for the art of spirits. OST Liquor stands as a testament to the power of vision and dedication in redefining the local business landscape and enriching the lives of those it serves. The next time you are in the mood for an adult beverage, check out your local OST Liquor and save yourself some gas, traffic, and time by buying local. Try to step outside you comfort zone also and try something new. You just may find your new go to cocktail that you will easily be able to make in the comfort of your own house. read more

Came by this local liquor store the other day to do a lil stocking up. The service was great and the guy behind the counter was very helpful. The 3 stars is because the prices were ridiculous and the store was very cluttery in the back...Other than that it was a fine visit. Will say these guys could come down on their prices, Total Wine and Spec's could beat you guys any day on price. read more

Was searching the black owned businesses collection on Yelp and came across OST Liquor Store. Like other reviewers, I didn't expect to make a review for a liquor store.However based on my experience at the establishment why not. The staff was very friendly and helpful and made me be feel very comfortable. They have bags with fruit juices and miniature spirits already packaged to purchased. I got the 3rd Ward Special and the hood Rita. Both were good and had be and my husband on our level, lol. Don' let me forget about the Styrofoam cups, which comes with ice when you purchased. What an awesome addition. I definitely recommend this black owned establishment and I will be definitely returning in the future!!! read more

I visited after I saw a video online. I went for the double cup drinks and was not disappointed! There was a pretty decent selection. However, I heard that there were some popular flavors that were sold out by the time I arrived. We'll be back to try those. Be bought 6 double cup packs. Every one was tasty. No complaints. The young lady at the front was friendly and helpful. Honestly, I wanted to go back today to buy more but we may wait another day or two. Stop by and give this place a try. They do not disappoint! read more

Oh my! I went here for the grand opening. I have no complaints at all even if the drive was far. Whenever I go to Houston and want a pick me up, I will make sure to stop here. I ended up getting some freebies along with my togo "Booker T" cup. They give you a double cup with ice and all the ingredients to mix your own drink. How awesome is that!! They had a booth to take a picture or boomerang for social media. That was cool. They also have an app and will deliver if its within ONE hour. read more

We are from Hawaii and found this place via tiktok. We dont have pre mixers like these back home so i bought a few. I was gonna go back and buy more but sadly sunday was our last full day and i found out you cant buy alcohol from a store on Sundays here. The owner of the store was REALLY nice! She helped me pick a few and asked what type of alchol i am looking for so i could narrow it down. I will definately be coming back on my next trip to Houston! Mahalo hun! read more

We passed over 15 liquor stores within the 30 minute drive to this store. My friend is a frequent customer. My first visit, one melananated brother in a black shirt that read "black book Houston" was on the floor stocking, he greeted us w eye contact upon entry and offered to assist. There is a black owned alcohol section in the store. We got two bottles of Earl Stevens. read more

I want to commend the OST team members for the Aberfeldy (Scotch) class last Sunday, March 19, 2023. I appreciate the opportunity to learn and explore scotch. Aberfeldy 12 was smooth and tasty. The Pencillin is definitely a future go to and good for cold symptoms. Tried the Aberfeldy 16 and it was a little too strong for me. Learned about the different tools used in bars so this was a great experience. I love that OST is taking the time to educate the community about wines and spirts. Thank you so much - Great Job! read more

Double cup cocktails is what they are known for, I picked up three different combos just because the names were cute ("hood mai tai", "peach cupcake mimosa"). Although the selection isn't large they have so much potential and room to grow. Plus I came the day before Fourth of July so I know that's why they were out of a lot of stuff. The customer service was so on point and of course just the camaraderie around supporting a black owned business really made the experience worthy while. read more
