The liquor store has a great selection and the staff is very knowledgable. But the real gem here is the wine cellar. You can purchase any bottle there and enjoy it in the cellar. If you don't like wine, they have beer on tap too. It's under new management too, so now there is food available. The bartendars are always friendly and full of suggestions too. It's a really neat area with plenty of tables and couches hidden even further in the back. Enjoy the added bonus of no cell phone reception to fully participate in a conversation or lose yourself in a good book. read more

Totally old school setup. Pro staff and good selection. If you are late and need a bottle of wine stop in and check this place out. Fast service. read more

I've been coming here for years, usually just to buy a couple of 6 packs that I can't get anywhere else. The beer selection is awesome. For the most part, the service is on point. I've had a couple of instances where I was a little annoyed though. One such instance is when I went through the drive thru... I pull up and ask the guy for a 4 pack of Boddingtons. He shrugs his shoulders, gives me a snotty look and asks "what's that?" I reply "...it's beer, dude" while trying to contain my laughter. I didn't think I was making such an outlandish request. And i know this guy has been working here for awhile. I see him here all the time. He says back "ok...where is it?" At this point I'm wondering if he's just having a shitty day or he just took a huge bong rip in the back. I tell him "in the beer cooler, about 4 or 5 doors from the left. Top shelf. Tall yellow cans." In my head I'm thinking "jeez dude, want me to ring myself up too?" He goes back, is gone for about 3 minutes, and comes back with it finally. I pay and pull away. No "Thank You" or anything. Sorry if I was insulting your intelligence, but you seriously don't know where your own product is located? Does someone else tie your shoes for you before you leave for work? It's not like I was asking for some obscure, triple hopped chocolate milk stout pale ale from Iran. It's Boddingtons! Another time I went in, I was followed around the store by an employee, literally hawk - eyeing me as I was looking through their whiskey selection. I guess anyone with tattoos and a shaved head is a thief that needs to be spied on. Don't let the looks fool you, I'm not a gang member or an ex con. I'm just an honest alcoholic. The blonde ladies that work there need to take a Xanax and chill the f out too. I get it- you probably deal with trashy dudes all day. It's a liquor store in shitty mesa. But if I make eye contact, smile and say hello to you and you don't say hi back, now YOU'RE the trash. Just sayin. Minus these occurrences, this place would be 4 maybe 5 stars. The pub downstairs is pretty rad. Always someone friendly running the show down there. And 90 percent of the time the service is awesome. read more

I know this place has been there forever. My 21st birthday kegs were procured at this place. However, on a recent visit I was a little disappointed. I parked the sketchy parking lot, walked into the place to be greeted by a dude, that said, 'hey dude'...okay cool. Then as I continued into the cavernous venue, the stench of old stagnant beer wafted into my nostrils with ill content. How disgusting. As I made my way around the store, I noticed that every beer bottle had dust on them...why? And what the hell is with the individual bottle sales, I understand you can create your own 6 pack...but I can do this anywhere. Also, the individual pricing convention is lame. But my experience didn't end there.... there is a creepy downstairs to this place. I found a brew I was interested in and went home, when I got home I then noticed that my beer was spoiled....rotten....with nasty floating crap in it. I am currently working with Lagunitas to rectify this situation as the bozo I spoke to at the store told me....sorry man...all sales are final. So yeah, if you want spoiled German beer from the 1930's with labels that look like Ben Franklin printed them....this is your place. My dollars will go to support BevMo or Total Wine. 1 star for being a part of my memory 1 star for somehow surviving in that location. read more

WOW!!! What a surprise this place was. A friend of ours invited us to go to some wine tasting over on Country Club and University and I couldn't think of a great place that you might go to do a wine tasting. When they told me Sun Devil Liquor, I was taken back, thinking what a dive it might be.....Well What a surprise when we went in and then down in the basement. Everything about this place is just cool. John on the keyboard/piano on Thursday is unbelievably awesome and has a great following as well. If I am looking for a fun place in Mesa(I know I just said fun place in Mesa)this has to be at the top of the list. Very inviting place inside and helpful staff. Would recommend this place to anyone looking to buy liquor, beer, wine or go to beer or wine tastings that they have. read more

Great place to hang out with a few friends. Huge selection of beer and wine. Reasonably priced and delicious! Our bartender was great! She even played cards against humanity with us, well until more people came then she had to serve them. She didn't miss a beat though. Kept the waters topped off and the draft beer flowing. Only thing is they need to change their hours so people know the bartender is not there until 5pm on Saturday. I will go back. read more

I really like to come here for the great selection of craft beers. I also love the bar downstairs, it's a perfect place to have a draft (they also serve wine, but no liquor) while feeling cozy and not like you are crammed in a typical loud bar. The bartenders also know a lot about craft beer. read more

The store is amazing, anything you could ever want for your drink concoctions you'll find on their shelves. The bar is also pretty cool, although its loud, its very low key which is pretty cool when you just want to have a drink and not all the party crap. read more

As a bottle shop, Sun Devil is great because you can mix six from literally any beer on the shelf. The number of beers they have on hand is both a blessing and a curse, because the layers of dust that cover some of them indicate they might not be as good about getting rid of old stock as they should be. Not such a big deal when talking about stouts or barleywines that are designed to be aged, anyway, but there were definitely some IPAs that were past their bottle-specified freshness dates. I left with a lot of hard-to-find beers, but it took me a while to read dates and weigh the impact of time on the beers that caught my eye. read more

Went to the bar downstairs. It's bitchin'. They tap stuff you can't normally get at a normal bar. The ambiance stellar. You're literally in a wine cellar. Like I said, this place is bitchin' read more

This place is awesome! What I love about it is the fact they have EVERYTHING from EVERYWHERE! I also love the fact that you can also go in a pick a beer from this 6 pack and that 6 pack till you have your mix matched 6 pack of your own. They also offer a wine tasting in their little quaint basement bar. Prices are reasonable and the only place I go for kegs! read more

This place has a huge selection. Their beer selection is one of the largest I have ever seen. They have a downstairs area that serves as a beer and wine bar / wine cellar. Its pretty cool, I would recommend checking it out. read more

What a pleasant surprise! I've driven by for years and never knew they had a cool, in temperature and ambiance, wine cellar with a little bar serving several quality beers on tap. read more

Oh. My. Gosh!! This place was totally unexpected!!! The variety upstairs is insane. I have never, ever seen so many varieties of beers from all over the world in one place. I went for some hard to find ciders and gluten free beers and SCORE!! They do not carry the same lame brands that are in the grocery stores - but ones that actually taste good! They had an entire cider section! What?! I took a sneak peek downstairs and what a totally cute, romantic, cozy wine cellar! There were several different cozy alcoves and rooms aside from the small bar and I cannot wait to have a date night or girls night here! Oh - randy is an awesome helper!! read more

What a fabulous little gem we stumbled upon in the basement! Looks are definitely deceiving with its bright orange paint on the outside. Through the front door and straight back to the downstairs basement where you'll find a perfect little spot to grab a bottle or glass of your favorite wine, beer on tap or liquor of choice. Feel free to order a pizza for delivery to enjoy with your refreshment. I could get lost there with the couches and peaceful yet fun setting. read more

This is an excellent local liquor store. They have a huge selection of liquor and beer and sell kegs, etc. But they also have a cellar with hundreds of bottles of wine and a wine bar and tasting events. Super friendly staff. Not the absolute cheapest in town but its very reasonable and the good atmosphere and service makes it worth shopping at. read more

Oh yes, I am a fan for sure! The only reason I gave 4 stars is because there is no food, but it's a super cool place! A must see place in Mesa read more

Awesome find!! 5 dollar wine tasting (4 wines) on Thurs and Fri. Super cool chill vibe!

They do have an amazing selection of alcohol, but I love that they fill kegs with whatever you want, including rootbeer for those who don't drink. Awesome!!! read more

This place has the coolest basement bar. And now the have a menu from the Blue Adobe Grill across the street. Very very cool.

If you are looking for service at their drive thru you have come to the wrong place!!! Waited...pull up again nothing!! Had to walk in!!! Lots too choose from but piss poor service!! Get some new help!!! read more

Amazing selection of liquors, beers, and wines joyously unencumbered by Virginia-style socialist ABC monopoly. Other reviewers point out some great details. I only browsed and had a craft beer with friendly bartenders downstairs in the wine/beer bar-lounge. Great selection on about 8 taps. Check schedule for frequent live music. read more

This place is awesome. My brother-in-law and I found some great beers that we can't find back at home (we are from out of state). The prices were reasonable and the workers were friendly as well. I was just impressed to be honest with their selection of craft and micro brews. Good place! read more

The selection here is unmatched. The employees were friendly and helpful. I did feel like some of the beers were a bit pricey but I guess it is what it is. I'll definitely be back when I need that hard to find Belgian! read more

Excellent selection of Belgian biers, one of the best I have run across. It even beats John's grocery in Iowa City, Iowa which is tough to do. The store is a bit cramped and crowded, but that is part of its charm rather than an impediment. Excellent selection of micro beers from around the country and I have always found everything to be fresh and tasty. Definitely a great beer store, especdially for Arizona. Knowledgeable store help who are friendly and beer advocates is a welcome change. read more

Best place to come get a beer in Mesa in my opinion. Great little place to even stop in to get some hard to find beers. If you have some extra time definitely check out the downstairs bar and wine cellar. They usually have beer/wine tastings. Amazing beers on tap. I'm lucky to work across the street ;) read more

The beer selection is unmatched in Arizona! You can find almost any beer from any country here and the sales staff is super friendly. We bought a bunch of kegs from them and they even helped us load up. I would highly recommend this place to my friends. read more

A friend of mine told me about this place a few years ago, but I never stopped by. After dropping by and heading downstairs I discovered one of the best liquor selections in town. They have a bar, several beer coolers, and a good wine selection. Choose what you want and relax in the bar or the adjacent room. Good place to relax and talk with friends. You can drive by this place a hundred times and never know there's a great bar in the cellar. A true hidden gem in downtown Mesa. read more

love that I can drink and shop!!! even at a little premium, ok by me. Great selection and we can always count on them to find something for us if they do not carry!! read more

Beer heaven! What don't they have? The staff has a taste for heavy body beer so if that isn't your ONLY criteria for great beer. I would just go with your gut. Their staff does know their stuff. read more

I'm picky when it comes to a quality, diverse, craft/micro beer selection. This store is undeniably one of the best I've ever stepped foot into. The staff is very friendly, knowledgeable, and are great about making suggestions of brews similar to my favorites. My only wish is that some of the great smaller breweries of the Midwest would get distributed out here in AZ.(No 3Floyds here unfortunately...yet), but this place has a ridiculous selection, and the added bonus...head downstairs for some great beers on tap, and one from the cask(changing every few days). If you love good beer,(and I'm not a wine guy, but their wine selection looks pretty large, especially downstairs around the small sipping bar), then you have to stop here. Period. ***They also allow mix and match six/four packs,... as every great store with this vast a selection should. Grab one you haven't heard of, and enjoy! read more

You can almost always find what you're looking for at this place. Occasionally, they have to special order stuff but mostly if I'm looking for something, rather than go to a grocery store, I just go here because their inventory is so diverse. read more

Does Heaven alcohol you ask? Why, yes they do. Love coming here. They need some shop stickers though. I'm just a guy who loves alcohol and stickers. read more

Oh Man! If you want to find A huge selection of wines and liquors, go to Sun Devil. They have great prices and a tavern downstairs where you can taste a wide variety of selections. read more

One of the best kept secrets in the east valley. People (including myself) pass this gem daily assuming it is no more than a simple liquor store. However, they are sadly mistaken and the cellar will provide you with unique beers in a unique atmosphere with unique people, all of which will make you want to bring all of your friends next time. read more

If you're trying to buy kegs from this business, go elsewhere! We ordered 2 kegs for a wedding - they lost the invoice because they only had the 1st name, they did not deliver until 2 hours later because they had the dates wrong. Someone had to drive there because they were not picking up their phones. They did charge the account though for over $300 on a timely basis! When I called to complain, Louis was defensive and accusatory. Would not let me speak to the owner, because there's 'nothing anyone can do.' No apologies, basically said it was our mistake, which I know it wasn't. Worst customer service ever! We have another event coming up and will go elsewhere, never again!! read more

All I can say is WOW!! I live in North PHX, and my father is visiting from the east coast. We had tickets for DBacks/Cubs Spring Training game in Mesa. Before I left the house I decided to find a place for us to have some food and a beer before the game. I found Sun Devil Liquors and the reviews sounded great. Nice pub with good beer, no food but i was assured by Yelpers that I could bring my own food. Just what I was looking for. My son was hungry, so when we arrived we decided to go to George's Gyros next door. All 5 of us ordered food to-go and we carried it over to Sun Devil to eat and enjoy some brews. The very moment I walked in to the place, I noticed that it was a liquor store. I asked the hostess where the pub was located. She looked me up and down, looked at the bag of to-go food in my hand, and RUDELY told me that it was downstairs, as if I was too stupid to know where it was. I'VE NEVER BEEN HERE BEFORE!!! I immediately apologized for the inconvenience and told her that I had never been there before and that I was just looking for the pub. I, and my 4 family members, (wife, 2 kids, & dad) proceeded to walk downstairs. The bar looked inviting and we were looking forward to enjoying our gyros with some suds. We sat down at one of 3 total tables and waited for a bartender. It was about 12:00 pm. (March 1st, Friday) The same rude blonde lady that greeted us walked down the stairs, told us that the BAR WAS CLOSED, and that "we couldn't just sit there and eat." We didn't even open our to-go boxes yet!! I said, "I'll gladly leave this BULLSHIT ESTABLISHMENT, and never return." She told, me "good luck with your life!!" and "thanks for the attitude!" right in front of my 12 year old that saw this whole fiasco. Attitude was given to ME the MOMENT i entered the establishment, and she thanked ME for my attitude? WOW!! Glad i live in NoPho and wont have to worry about coming here ever again. the Yelpers were wrong apparently....... Not sure why she told me it was downstairs if it wasn't open in the first place. I wasn't planning on coming in there JUST TO EAT. She's all, "you can't just come down here and EAT!!!" Well that wasn't my intention, I wanted to drink their BEER!! We went back to George's to eat and WHADDYA KNOW? They have a bar there too. Thanks George, we enjoyed your hospitality and your beer!!! read more

All 3 employees of the wine cellar were notified by text message on Christmas Day 2017 they lost their jobs. After a lot of complaints they reopened only on Thursday a week later. Two of the employees that had been there for over 4 years each were not called back. They lied and said those employees were stealing from them. Horrible owners, that have no respect for what the employees or customers have done to support their business. Don't shop with them. There are better selections of beer and better prices at Stores like Bottle Shop 48, liquor express, Beer World. read more

I had my wedding this past Friday and had placed an order for 2 kegs. When I placed the order the man on the phone seemed so uninterested and wanted me off the phone quick. No confirmation received. Well here comes my wedding day and no beer received. Calls were made to Sun Devil Liquor but the line was either busy or no answer. If not for the employees of The Antique Wedding House driving to the store I wouldn't have had beer for my wedding. The beer was supposed to be there at 5:30 and didn't get there until 6:40. When I asked what happened I was told the manager dropped the ball. A phone call was made to them on Sunday to discuss and they blamed me for the mix up(our bartender told us to call them to complain) They only wrote down my first name on the invoice and say that it was all my fault. How is it I planned my wedding for a year and I gave my the wrong wedding date to only 1 vendor??? They said they confirmed everything but didn't. Rude rude rude workers! Not one apology was received. Not when the beer was delivered and not when a phone call was placed. I would never recommend this place to anyone. read more

Great selection of beers and spirits. Staff is usually pretty knowledgeable on products. There is a taproom in the basement that brings out an eclectic group of people but has great beers. read more
