This wine shop is a treasure trove of imported wines, spirits, and beer. Their wine selection is decent and pricing reasonable especially in their champagne. They have a wonderful range of selections from France, Spain, Italy, Portugal, Argentina, etc. They also carry wines from Washington, California, and Oregon. Their spirits selection was equally impressive! We were looking for a couple bottles to bring to dinner. We ended up getting a bottle or Vincent Wengier Chablis and Loriot-Pages Brut Champagne. These were based on recommendations by the staff. Service was amazing. The staff were very friendly and walked us through their collection and provided excellent recommendations.

But, they do not have just wines (a vast and impressive selection of, by the way)! I went to check out their whiskys and whiskeys, of which they have a very good selection of, but not too extensive. You do not go there to buy the cheap stuff, rather to look for something special or unique. Been there a couple times: first time we went the person behind the counter was way too helpful, almost forcing their knowledge on you when it wasn't warranted. The second time was met with a very friendly and non-intrusive but knowledgeable employee, which made me feel better about buying a few bottles of whiskey. I'd say prices are the same as other stores. Ambiance is great. If I go again, next time I'll check out their wine selection.

Who hasn't passed Yong's Wine & Spirits just a step away from Safeway Beretania on one of the busiest corner on Kinau and Piikoi and I thank goodness I haven't given them a visit earlier. As soon as I walked in I was greeted by a friendly staff and loved how nice and clean it was, spacious and neatly organized. Here's the place for cravings of all kinds...the variety here is just incredible, though they've been keeping a secret that I just discovered. They have the asian exotic chips that we all have been salty about the bougie lays's and even Oreo! I was in heaven and spent a great amount of time deciding on one...yup one lol! I did get the seaweed flavor and gosh what a yummy crunch snack! It's just a nice convenient location for a place that's open 7 days 7am-9pm knowing that surely puts me in great spirits! Thank you!

Young's Wine & Spirits has a great selection of the two noted alcohols in the name, but they also have many others: soju, seltzers, RTD cocktails, and for me, an amazing selection of beer! It also feels like a convenience store, with essential food items, lots of snacks, and tobacco products. They also sell ice and have an ATM. They regularly rent out a stall in the parking lot to a food truck, which changes periodically. If something interesting is making food that day, it's also easy to pickup dinner. For me, I come for the beer selection. They get a variety of 6-packs, 4-packs, cases, and singles from mostly US breweries. I really appreciate their large selection of local breweries, most of which are available in single cans if you'd like to try a few. Prices are competitive with stores selling similar products. The owners have been super friendly and welcoming to me, both on Instagram and in the store. I appreciated having a few free sample cans to try on more than one occasion. Cheers! It's easy to get here, off Piikoi near Safeway with its own small lot. It's also easy to walk around the fence if you're doing your grocery shopping and want to add in some libations.

The lady who runs the shop has less than no manners. She watches tv, when we asked her a question…read moreshe ignored us, then when we got in line to pay she asked me if I was going to put it on my friends card and I said no. She scoffed and said "Jesus Christ!" because she had to do my transaction separately. Super rude, most overpriced store in all of Hawaii, everything about her is bad. I am sad that she runs this store because it is the closest one to my house. But she moved here just to treat locals bad and make people feel bad about themselves. I am writing this review walking home passing her store and currently she is fighting someone.

They offer French Bubbles, and wines from France, Napa, Sonoma, a few coastal areas nearby, Oregon, Washington, I believe I saw a couple of southern CA regional wines, and maybe a couple from Australia, Spain... maybe a Malbec. I would need more time, I was on a quick break to grab champagne for a colleague who needed to take some for a work event. They have a refrigerator so if you do need something chilled, there is a selection to choose from, otherwise plan ahead. Prices are very fair! The options are great as well. I much rather prefer a nice wine shop over the shelves at Safeway (sorry Safeway.....) They also have nice options for whisky, cognac, soju, and a couple of tequila items. They sell wine bags so you can gift something. They had a few accessories too. Friendly service offering any needed assistance. They keep the door locked so just knock and they let you in/out.

They have QR CODED to SCAN posted in the buildings. I've NEVER noticed them before... Then again, I've only came during the evening most times. And don't stay LONGER than 2 hours. But if you ever need a drink for the food shops you're eating at... KNOW that there is a mom & pop shop in the center. It's a bit messy & cluttered tho. So, it kind of makes you wonder if they're renovating inside. Anywho, that's mostly the reason why I gave a 2 STAR because of the appearance. Otherwise, I'm glad they had drinks. And I think there's what looks like an adult "SAMPLE TASTE" station. BUT IM NOT TOO SURE! I didn't ask... he looked a bit grouchy. I didn't want to irritate him more. Anywho, you should check it out if you need simple snacks or drinks! Okie dokes! Have a good one!

They often have reduced price bottles, and a point-redeeming program to earn certain free products. You may even get a chance to get a taste test of certain items. Where else can you do that? I really enjoy this place and try to support local.

Besides tobacco products; cigarettes, lighters, gas refills, they have snacks, drinks, and alcohol - a lot of alcohol. It is a liquor and smoke shop. Of course Knick knacks of sorts. The staff I met 3 times now, are both helpful and friendly. I enjoy my time there. You will be amazed. They close at 7pm daily I think.
