This was my first time, visiting Simone's! It was a great experience. They have a massive selection of craft, beers, liquor and surprisingly "Mead"! The aisles are packed with great options and snacks. I was told that they are one of the first original customers of our proud, Cleveland, beer maker, Great Lakes Brewery! And the big one for me is the great customer service. You do not feel rushed or overlooked. read more

Good liquor store, be sure to ask about their sandwiches - every time you go in there.

Simone's is the literal best place ever! I've been going here for years and then I moved to Columbus so I haven't been able to go here too often. Anytime I'm back in town, I always stop in here! They have the BEST sour beer selection and I'll die on that hill. Also a random thing to call out but they have limes and lemons which is always clutch. My brother loves their whisky selection. read more

Ahhh Simones. My end all be all go to liquor store. They have pretty much everything you can think of. Mixes. Glasses. Kegs. Mini kegs. Soda/pop. Wine. Claws. Natty seltzer. Anything that gets you intoxicated....they have it. Location has been here as long as I remember. Parking lot is a little cramped but other than that I can't complain. They also have nice beer/ale pint glasses for sale before you leave. Just what I need....another beer glass. Will continue to frequent this place as long as my liver allows it read more

This place needs to get new machines (and training) because they claimed I'm using a fake ID and said it doesn't scan?! I'm 28 years old and have no reason for a fake ID. It's scanned since I got it when I was 16 years old. Just admit you don't know how to read a California ID. It's literally your job to know these things. Embarrassing. Mind you, I've bought beer from here multiple times. read more

Great service and great selection of all kinds of liquor and beer. I was looking for Middleton and they had it one of the few places I've I've seen in the whole country that had it. what's happening is some modern New wealth is come in and people are buying expensive whiskeys even though they don't really have an appreciation for them. they also had some of my favorite Great lakes beer called Eliot Ness Brown lager. I really think that there are some knowledgeable people who are committed to doing great customer service. read more

Simone's Beverage & Deli - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Lakewood, Ohio

Over priced alcohol and poor customer service. Walked out with the wrong beverage. I walked immediately back in. They didn't have what we were looking for and wanted a refund. Whoever I was talking to said it was against the law to return it. Offered store credit but they didn't have what we were looking for. It's a convenient location but I wont be giving them anymore of my money. read more

If you crave it, Simones has probably got it. Customers can browse a fantastic selection of import and craft beers as well as a diverse sampling of international wines and specialties, everything from "Porto" to "Pimm's Cup." Distilled spirits abound with several varieties of Bourbon, Gin, Rum, Rye, Tequila, Vodka, and Whiskey. Equally well appointed are some above average mixers and fixings, (notably the higher-end bitters). This place stands out among the usual Ohio establishments-- which by and large are reminiscent of Soviet-era "People's Emporiums." read more

This place stays stocked with an amazing selection of beers and spirits. The staff is always helpful and quick to offer up fun suggestions. Looking forward to cracking open my latest pick up! read more

Simone's Beverage & Deli - a bottle of elijah craig - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Lakewood, Ohio

Stopping through between Niagara Falls and Putin Bay, OH. Great selection and friendly/helpful service!!!

Best bottle shop/liquor store around. Very knowledgeable staff, great selection and they sell a wide variety of kegs!

I boycotted this store a few years ago because a store clerk followed me into the whiskey aisle and asked for my ID. I wish those days would come back. Now I am an old man nobody gives a damn about. Nobody wants to see a zoomed in closeup of my big head on my Ohio ID. My home bar is well stocked. A shame that nobody comes to visit. I drink alone. White Russian with Vanilla Almond Milk is the move. read more

Simone's Beverage & Deli - The home bar. Thanks Simone's. - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Lakewood, Ohio

Simone's is A-OK in my book. Here's the thing--I don't care about craft beers because I don't drink beer. However, I would recognize a big selection if I actually saw it. But when I go to Simone's, I b-line right to the tequila, grab a bottle, and go to the checkout. I've never actually ventured to any other parts of this liquor store. They have an OK tequila selection, but this is NE Ohio. You're not going to find a super-impressive selection of hard-to-find sipping tequilas without doing your research and really looking around. So, those things in addition to that fact that while I've always received adequate customer service, I've never actually been smiled at by anyone who works there--puts us at a 3-star rating. As someone who has worked in retail and as a bartender, smiling at customers and making them feel welcome is part of the gig. I mean, no one has been rude to me. But I also feel like every person who has checked me out would secretly rather be dead, body being eaten raw by a herd of vicious animals, than taking my money for booze. Also, that parking lot layout as GOT to go. It's the worst. read more

Great local liquor store. Plenty of national & local brands of beer, with a surprisingly expansive wine selection. Staff is friendly, accommodating, & will give you great beer/wine suggestions if you ask. Easy to stop in & grab things in bulk for parties or restocking your bar cart. read more

Helpful staff directed me to lots of fun beer varietals and an aisle where I could make my own six pack. Loved the selection of local and Ohio brewed beers and tried some some market garden & Jackie o's. Friendly and efficient customer service is a rarity these days and this place nailed it! read more

Amazing selection and great prices. Service is always quick and friendly. They have everything from your high age single malt to your $5 bottle of wine. read more

Great neighborhood place to pick up beer and wine. They actually have an amazing selection of beer. Lots of interesting bottles that you can buy individually. Oh, and they also have snack food items, and ice. read more

Everything beer you could want and a ton of beer you didn't know about until you walked in. Great place Craft beer selection is second to none in the Cleveland area. Their inventory is almost intimidating. Everything from all the local breweries to the stuff oceans away and everything in between. Prices are good (comparable to the other beer/wine/liquor stores in the area). Selection is massive. This place really knocks it out of the park with their customer service though. They will let you buy a single beer from just about any 4-6 pack you can find. So if you really want to try a specialty beer and you don't want 6, this place will hook you up. Another thing about that is, they will let you buy one solitary beer. I'm not saying I would. But it's damn convenient that you don't have to make up a six pack of assorted beers. You can just get one. Will be back often. read more

Best liquor store around. They have any alcohol you could possibly want and have an amazing selection of beer! Never disappoints!

Let me put it this way. I always go to Simone's first! The staff is very friendly and engaging. They have great selection. Close to Lakewood, Rocky River, Ohio City, Edgewater, Westlake. read more

Excellent selection along with courteous and responsible staff. I have found beer, wine, and liquor here that I could not locate at other local beverage shops. read more

Mark is the man! He knew that a specialty beer I love was no longer in Ohio but directed me to an ever better similar beer. This guy is a true connoisseur. Awesome customer service read more

I love Simone's!! I came all the way from Florida because we can't get our hands on weller products and Mark was so generous in letting me get more than one OWA 107 to take back home with me on my flight! Thank you so much! Will definitely be back in the near future. Also has an awesome selection on craft beer!! read more

Simone's Beverage & Deli - a bottle of wellen - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Lakewood, Ohio

Went in today looking for a good bourbon. Got a bottle of my standard 4 Roses small batch and he recommended Weller's Green label. Just sat down for a nice glass (neat) and it is quite tasty and I enjoy it. Thank you for the great recommendation. read more

Huge help in tracking down a bourbon I've been looking for forever! Will continue supporting this awesome loc business until I die! thanks again! read more

I am a beer freak. I homebrew, I've got a cap collection with over one thousand different and unique beers that I've drank since 2003. Of course, a significant portion of my girth can be attributed to the barley wine, and a significant portion of that portion can be attributed to Simone's. I love Simone's beer selection, and I've loved it for years. Not only do they carry craft brews and kegs of beer and rare bottles of Belgian beers, but, they also have a pick-a-six, wherein I can buy six different beers, and still bring a six pack to a party. Simone's would get a fifth star, but, the snack selection is kind of sketchy to be kind. It's as if most of the off-brands got together and decided to force out the good stuff. The selection of soda leaves a lot to be desired, even from a mixing standpoint -- Tough to drink a scotch and soda when the soda looks like no one's touched it since 08. read more

I have a thing about beer. I mean, it's not a problem or anything but it's something I'm terribly fond of and like to explore. Thing is, if I find an interesting beer but it turns out to be a clunker then I'm stuck with five bottles of the stuff. While that sounds like first world problems, and it is, it's still irritating. Fortunately for those of us who really need variety and experimentation, places like Simone's has us covered. I can roll in all casual-like, pick up a flattened six pack holder and proceed to fill it up with whatever single bottles strike my fancy (and there are A LOT). If you missed that late-season Bell's which you shouldn't be able to get three months after it released or if you're still dying for an Anchor Christmas Ale, you are totally covered. The single bottles range anywhere from $1.50 to $6 (or more, if you're into larger formats) and there's something for everyone. Because they're strays, the selection changes on a really good rotation so very rarely are they too heavy on one type or another. There's also plenty of non-booze to choose from, tons of wines, bottles of whatever and your garden variety snacks and some sundries as needed. $5 minimum on credit cards and depending on the upcoming holiday, enjoy the people watching. read more

This place has the BEST beer selection I've seen in a long time! We happened upon it by accident while the in-laws were visiting and we were looking for a fairly cheap bottle of wine. I turned a corner or two, and bam! Beers everywhere. In the fridge and on shelves. By the case, six-pack, and individual bottle. From all around the world! I have usually been going to Lilly's for beer, but now I won't have to travel far. Another plus: they have reviews of their wine posted on little signs with a small description of what they taste like. But in totally normal, layman's terms (which I appreciate). Instead of yapping about the "subtle notes" or the tannins or whatnot, it tells you how sweet it is or what it tastes like (not what's it's "reminiscent of." I will admit that I love sweet wines, and I found a lot of red wines here that I could see myself enjoying. read more

Great little liquor store. Owner was very helpful and I was able to get a bottle I had been looking for.

Owner was amazing to help my wife and I. First time there and will be back. Amazing selection of beer, ohio beer, wine or liquor. Please stop by and check them out. Thank you again read more

Simon has helped me find the perfect beers to serve at my pig roast for almost the last decade now. What's the best rated, what's the most popular, he has always been my go to store for all of my party planning needs. Great staff, always friendly, and ALWAYS helpful. Wanna just try something new and funky, they have singles chilled for a quick stop on the way home before you hit the couch or front porch. read more

I have been going to Simone's on and off since I moved to Lakewood about a year ago until just this past weekend when they have converted me over to a customer for life. I had ordered two kegs from another local beverage store only to find out last minute that one "never got ordered" and I thought I was screwed. Stopped by Simone's and talked to Mark on Thursday about the situation. He had his distributor on the phone within the minute, got a list of beers/prices, got one ordered and delivered the NEXT DAY. He even texted me when it got delivered so I could come snag it for our party. Their customer service goes above and beyond anywhere I have shopped in the Cleveland area. Couple that with an excellent selection of beer, wine, and liquor with competitive pricing; I won't need to go anywhere else for my alcohol selection. Thank you Simone's for saving a party in need! read more

Best & biggest selection of beer, liquor, & wine! Owner is a really nice guy & employees are very helpful!

I was looking for a one-stop shop for all of my wedding drink supplies (bottled beer, draft beer, wine, full-proof liquor, mixers/cordials, soft drinks). I was referred to Simone's in Lakewood. Simone's is, indeed, a one-stop shop, and they hold a pretty wide selection of beer, wine, & liquor. I sent Marc, one of the managers, a detailed list. They had almost everything in stock, ordered in what they didn't, & for 2 admittedly scarce spirits, they offered & provided comparable alternatives. Ahead of placing my order, I scouted prices. Their total charge was awfully close to what I expected, so the prices were right on. Marc was helpful, communicated thoroughly with me, & was diligent (triple-checked for accuracy). He had everything tallied up for purchase & ready to load when I arrived. I recommend this place for large orders. read more

Simone's has it all...at least anything a gluten drinking Lakewoodite would be looking for. The only lacking area (for me) is the selection of gluten free beer. I've never seen any. Other than that, Simone's delivered anything I've ever been looking for, including two liter bottles of Cotton Club's Club Soda. I should start a list just for Club Soda...it is a major pain in my behind that local Giant Eagle's don't carry the full range of club soda. Ever stop at a Kroger's or Bigg's in the greater Cincinnati area? There are lots and lots of distributors of bubbly water down there. Schweppes. Kroger brand. It is too much for my club soda addicted mind to handle. In fact, now that I'm thinking about it, Simone's could handle more club soda variety, but I'm probably more of a club soda freak than their average customer. There is a full range of liquor and lots and lots and lots of beer. I've bought cheap corn tortilla chips there too...the kind with the pretty girl in the skirt on the bag. In fact, I think I bought them and then carried them into a nearby bar that didn't have any snacks. read more

My favorite place to find unique and special sours. Plenty of limited edition, hard to find beers and wide variety. I absolutely love and recommend Simone's to everyone. read more

Love this place. Great selection, amazing staff. They are honest about what they have and what they don't have. Always stop by this place when looking for a good bottle! read more

WOW. I dashed in here for the first time tonight, and was in a RUSH. Almost got lost in here, wanting to browse. The pick a six selection was AH-MAZ-ING! SERIOUSLY. I NEED TO GO TO HERE again and often! They were the only place in town I could find a gift pack of Rumchata. The staff was helpful and knowledgeable. The place is packed, and bigger than I thought. Kind of a Dr. Who/Tardis kind of feeling. :-) read more

This is a great spot. It's clean and the workers are knowledgeable. They are honest about their inventory and will help you find what you're looking for even if they can't supply it themselves. read more

This place is fantastic. They have any alcohol you could want. Wine, beer, liquor, kegs.....they have it all. I've been coming here for 10 years. Price are good and the staff is good. Mark and his brother are great guys. I'm happy to give my money to this place and I will for years to come. read more
