    Absolutely amazing place for wines. Absolutely amazing…read more I wanted to find somewhere to buy a bottle of wine for friends we were going to have dinner with later that day: he's a chef and the former part-owner of a series of very popular restaurants in Seattle (owned by his family)... so no ordinary wine was going to do. We spied Compass Wines by accident driving from Anacortes toward I-5 Southbound, and took a chance that they might have a good selection of wines with which to choose from. Indeed they do. The individual who helped me not only recommended an exceptional wine -- a 2016 vintage of a Cabernet Sauvignon -- but one that impressed my friend... who is not easily impressed. Not at all. What's more, they were featuring Scotch -- and while my partner and I seldom drink, we occasionally have a bit of scotch every once in a while (we still have a few bottles purchased ten years ago... almost all of them have only had 4-5 ounces consumed). My partner and I are very partial to Macallan, but the Gordon & Macphail won out. Single malts rock! It's been my experience that those wine stores that have great selections cater to regular customers who know a great deal about wine -- but they tend, more often than not, to be a bit snobbish and look down upon those of us whose knowledge of wine wasn't genetically-encoded in our DNA. Not these people: the proprietors were very forgiving and helpful, and they know their wines! (And Scotch!) The individual helping me took all the time I needed to gather information about which Cabernet to buy, and it certainly paid off for me! That kind of service should be a standard for other companies to emulate. What impressed me more was their selection of Leonetti Cellar wines: I've known Gary Figgens, the owner of Leonetti Cellar, for over 40 years -- and have a number of their wines in my cellar. I'd give Compass Wines a sixth star if possible... just on the merit of featuring Leonetti Cellar wines, one of six favorite vintners. I do know enough about domestic wines to understand that this store has a superlative selection -- and I'd love to come back and talk about foreign wineries and wines. I know a good deal about Australian, New Zealand, German and Austrian wines.., but I'd like to come back just to see what I might learn. A friend of mine, working in London for a prestigious law firm, thought he might purchase a derby to wear. He spent three and one-half very enjoyable hours in conversation and being fitted for a derby, and felt so impressed by the impassioned storekeeper that he write him a letter thanking him for a memorable day. While I intended to pop into the store and quickly buy a bottle of wine, I spent 83 minutes in conversation about Cabernet Sauvignon, Scotch, and Scotland. There are many wine stores in Washington -- and the U.S. -- but very few of them are of the quality of Compass Wines in terms of selection, knowledge, and customer service. Try them!

    Great service. Listened to me. Did not try to upsell. Wanted a sweet vermouth to sip. Tastes…read moregreat.

If you're a beer freak or a beer geek in Oak Harbor, it's hard to imagine there's much better to choose from than this. They are just up the hill from the main waterfront drag on Pioneer--as a tourist you can eat well and get your shopping done, then come up here. As a local, you can come in from uphill. There's plenty of street parking, and inside it's pleasantly cool, clean, and bright. I'd actually love to see them tone down the lights and put the beer in coolers, but they seem to turn over stock reasonably well. Right now the beers are loosely arranged on wooden shelves, easy to grab. The selection ranged from west coast stuff (lots of WA beers) all the way to the EU and beyond. Nice cross-section of world classics and better local and regional beers. They fill growlers and offer plenty of different ciders, soda pops, and other treats. There are even a dozen or so different cigars behind the counter. I found some great stuff that you don't see in Seattle shops anymore: 3-Way, Barren Wood, North Coast Old Stock Cellar Reserve. Prices are fair. I can't say enough about how friendly and kind the owner is, too; he's clearly having a ball and loves chatting with beer lovers.
