They sell a lot of "shooters" to the local transient population that lives behind the building. More often than not o get hit up for change or booze in the parking lot.

Despite some negative reviews left by some of the past shoppers, my experience with this liquor…read morestore the other day was quite good. The selection is not necessarily massive. For the particular brand of tequila I was in for, however, the store only carried the Blanco (silver) one so no Reposado and/or Anejo. I, however, was able to walk away with its tequila-based coffee liqueur (Cantera Negra Cafe) which I had always wanted to try. The employees (pretty much all of them) were very professional and courteous for my shopping needs. The store is a good size. Very organized where things aren't cramped into the space. Very clean indeed. On Thursday and Saturday, they do tastings (4-7pm on Thursdays and 3-6pm on Saturdays); the designated tasting area is on the north end of the shop. You can park in the Whole Foods garage (there is a door to it inside the shop; this is convenient especially when the weather is bad with rain or show.) I don't come to this part of town very often but it's nice to know that a good liquor store with high-end feel exists right in the heart of Belmar shopping area.

Lately, I've been going to Sir Fredrick's Liquors as this store really attracts the homeless from the greenbelt/creek directly behind them. They hang out outside asking for money and drinking their booze on the sidewalk. Today went I went in, there was a homeless guy just outside the door asking for money. He asked for a drink from my vodka bottle and that was annoying and a little scary. The woman I bought the bottle from was extremely nice and professional. I just hate having to run the gamut of bums to get into and out of the store.
