Great selection of wine at reasonable prices, and super friendly service. Love these small wine shops. There is also a good selection of beer. Organic are separate from regular wine which is cool. read more

Participated Sunday the 10th for the Girls on the Run Club, need a little rest break and so glad. What a gem this place was to find. A quaint place with so much fun well organized goodies. I don't know who worked that day, but he was amazing and helpful, thank you. - JJ read more

Service was excellent, the owner knew his wine, and he recommended a fabulous white wine to me. He went above and beyond what was necessary! Would recommend this place to everyone! read more

This place is small but has a BIG heart! Stellar customer service -- friendly and super helpful. Gave me a discount when their suggested wine was just a couple bucks over my intended spending limit. Who does that!? Cheers! read more

This was one of the first places I visited after I moved to Denver. Almost 8 years later, I refuse to buy wine anywhere else. The staff is so knowledgeable and nails my taste virtually 100% of the time! They always ask me to come back with feedback but I don't know if they really need it. It's all excellent. Fantastic. I never leave wondering if I am going to like a certain wine or champagne. I open it with confidence and expect it to knock my socks off. Sometimes it knocks off more than that! ;) Just kidding... Finally, the staff is not only helpful but super nice. read more

They wait until after you've paid for your 4 bottles of wine with your card to then tell you that a bag costs 10 cents. Foresight , evidently, is not their custom. read more

Hands down the best liquor store !!! Wide variety + international wines + local beers. The only spot I buy drinks at these days! read more

Toast! Wine and Spirits - Toast - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Love this spot! We go here a few times a week to grab goodies and get recommendations on cool new beers to try. We've discovered some tasty new beers and wine. Support local! read more

This is my favorite wine shop! It's so convenient in my neighborhood and tucked away in a quiet area. The staff are so knowledgeable and will help you find a perfect wine for you. The prices vary, so I can splurge on something for a special occasion, or just pick up a bottle for a Friday night in. You'll see a lot of wines that you won't see everywhere else and it's helped me branch out from some of the huge labels that you see everywhere and really expand my appreciation for wine. Keep it up!! read more

We bought a home in Sloan Lake about a year ago. After a long day of moving and unpacking, we went on a quest to find a nice bottle of wine to relax with and happened upon Toast! just a few blocks from our new place. The second we stepped inside, we knew we had found a gem. The owner, Brian, welcomed us enthusiastically to the neighborhood, and proceeded to steer us towards some of his favorite bottles at the price point we requested. The service at Toast! has been stellar ever since that first day. Whether it's Brian, his wife Kim, or any other of his amazing staff that are working at any given moment, we usually walk out with something we've never tried based on a recommendation and ALWAYS walk out satisfied. read more

Yay, I love this place. They have treats for your dog, and the owners are knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. They seem to know all their customers by name! Get on their email list to get a heads up on specials. Plus, every time I go there I learn something, like last time I learned what malolactic fermentation is and why is makes some chardonnay taste buttery. ETA: cheaper than Mondo Vino. I went to Mondo Vino the other day because they're one of the only places in the area that carry Rocky Mountain IPA. I did a quick scan of the prices of stuff I normally get at Toast and noticed I am saving money! Edited again to add: Toast has Rocky Mountain IPA now! read more

We stop by Toast fairly frequently. Have thrown some parties this year (some personal, some corporate) and they did a good job of having a nice selection of drinks ready for us. The place is small, but plenty big to find something appropriate for most occasions. Plus, they have an awesome ginger beer (non-alcoholic) from the Caribbean that I can't find anywhere else. What's more: Not only do they know my name, they know my dog's name. (Petey, in case you were wondering. He's a 72-lb silver standard poodle.) read more

GREAT place for wine, spirits AND beer. A really fun and thoughtful selection is always on their shelves. The staff is friendly and always helpful with a suggestion or a pairing. Whenever I'm in this neighborhood I find an excuse to stop in. read more

I love Toast! It is so refreshing to find a nice independently owned neighborhood store. They always have a fantastic selection (especially for my boyfriend who likes some pretty obscure wine/beer) and shopping there is always a pleasant experience. Tonight I was out walking the dog and really wanted some nice cold beer. When I got there and remembered they closed early on Sunday nights, I started to walk away when the owner stopped me. He has stopped back into the store and saw me walking by. Although he technically had been closed for almost two hours, he still let me step in and grab some beer. Now THAT is customer service. :) read more

Such a friendly and helpful staff and they carry some rare finds! I called to check on inventory and they were so helpful in setting some aside for me on hold until I could stop in. Highly recommend! read more

Here's what I love: 1. Local small business 2. Great selection (including my favorite cheap wine, Rex & Goliath) 3. Friendly helpful staff 3. Super cute store 4. 1.5 blocks from my house. ENOUGH SAID! read more

Great store, nice selection and awesome service! It becomes hard to try to support the local small guy if they don't show up and open during their scheduled business hours though. read more

Apparently I'm the last person in my neighborhood to know about this gem of an upscale interesting liquor store. I took the scenic route home from the asian markets on South Federal, mostly to drive by the 23rd Avenue art gallery and to my surprise the old hole-in-the-wall liquor store had been replaced by hipness and great selection. Not only did they have the giant cheap bottle of wine I was looking for, but also the yummy buffalo grass vodka that gets me in trouble every time I drink it at Red Square Euro Bistro..... The owners were very friendly to all who came in and I will definitely return...... And I love the iron work on the windows - made by Dennis West over at the 23rd Ave gallery..... read more

I am so pleased to have found this place, and enjoy their offerings. Brian and Kim definitely have customer service down to an art and are friendly to everybody who stops in. I inadvertently picked up a sampler 6-pack of beer which I wasn't expecting, and Brian was quick to remedy the situation. I'll definitely be back to pick up all of my tasty libations here! read more

If I could give six stars (or ten stars) I would. Toast is the very very best! Brian and Kim, the owners, are wonderful people who treat you like neighbors even though they don't technically live in the neighborhood. Need a recommendation for ANYTHING? They have the perfect one. Don't feel comfortable in a place unless they remember your dog's name and give her or him a bone? Dottie the Basset hound thanks them profusely. Seriously, we can't say enough good about this place- when one of us needed a unique anniversary gift, Brian took the time to special order several bombers that were exactly what we needed. Toast is a gem that should be sought out. Sincerely, The Hollyfelds read more

Great spot. They have a knowledgeable and friendly staff, and always get the best craft brews. I am happy to give them 5 stars. Dog friendly too! read more

Toast! is a small place, but packed with incredible beer, wine and liquor. They stock some of the large domestic stuff because (for reasons beyond me) people still buy it, but they also have a cool packed with IPAs, Double IPAs, Imperial IPAs, and some of the kick-ass special brews from West Coast, Great Divide, Odell's, Oskar Blues, Dogfish Head, and many more of the top breweries in Colorado and around the country. Don't see the beer you're looking for? They might be able to order it in for you. Not sure what kind of beer you want? Tell them what you like and what you're pairing it with and you'll get several well-informed options. Same goes for wines. I've gone in several times and described my dish and received multiple recommendations for different wine pairings. I can't stress this part enough, they know their stuff and are more than happy to share their knowledge of brews, wines, and spirits. This is my local spot, but if I moved, I would make the trek to get my hoppy beers and good wines here. read more

I absolutely LOVE TOAST! Everyone who works there is so friendly and helpful! They also guide me towards the right wine and have yet to fail me! Definitely the BEST wine/liquor store!!! read more

Cannot say enough good things about Brian and Kim, the owners. Their shop is fantastic and they're always super helpful. Toast is a little off the beaten path but it's worth the drive! One note- I wish they had a selection of white wine to match their amazing selection of reds. That's not a complaint, just a comment about how awesome their red selection is! read more

So for a tiny liquor store that can only stock so much, Toast kills it! The owners are super nice and helpful, they will bring in something they don't typically have if you ask. I love when places go out of their way to do something extra for the regular Joe-Shmoe. Also let me add that they really have a impressive selection of beer, that is huge for me. This being Denver most places should realize that this more than just about any other spot in the country has the best access to the best beer, and they should embrace it, Toast does!! read more

I learned two very dangerous things last night. 1) Toast is much closer to my house than I thought and 2) You can pick three bottles with blue price tags for just $20! We made out like bandits with a bottle of dry rose, a torrontes-chardonnay blend and something I already forgot. Maybe because just two of us plowed through all that wine last night in short order... We probably saved almost $10. The man who helped us was super friendly and did say that the wine deal will be going up in price next week, however I have no doubt it will still be a steal. Prices in general were really affordable and the selection was impressive for such a small shop. This place beats the pants off Mondo Vino and Highlands Wine and Liquor, and especially JJ's Liquor in the Target parking lot, which I now can avoid. Pet friendly too! read more

Friendly, knowledgeable staff and a great selection of wine for the size of the store. I stopped in to grab a bottle of my favorite and something new. Brian asked me a couple questions and based on my answers steered me towards the right wines. They even give service industry discounts! I will definitely be returning, even if it's out of my way. read more

Awesome spirits shop. Owned by the friendliest, most knowledgeable couple. They know everybody who walks in, both by their first name and their pet's name. (Dog treats behind the counter.) Good wine selection, all your standard spirits, and some specialty beers. The email newsletter goes out with drink specials, recipes, and food pairings. read more

Great place, worth going to instead of Mondo Vino. Good wine and beer selection, good prices and WONDERFUL staff, very helpful!

Not all heroes wear capes people. These guys helped me out big time when my keg tap broke mid super bowl, lending me a new one free of charge (I got the keg elsewhere). Awesome staff with a great little shop nestled in the Sloan's Lake(ish)/Highland area. Cheers! read more

Just moved to Denver a couple blocks from this awesome locally owned shop. I think most important is to not underestimate the size, they have a LOT of stock in the basement - if you're looking for anything specific definitely ask! (Eg. They had a couple boxes/bottles of Veuve Clicquot - favorite Champaign - and their price competes and sometimes beats big chains - and beats online ordering as well) Reasons why this shop is my favorite store for anything beer/wine/liquor. - Constant flow of great craft beer from local to imported - I literally feel like the whole craft beer area is different every time I shop here (about once a week). This is the probably the only really 'Pricier' stuff for the size and quality of this shop (and I'm sure it has to do with hand selecting certain brands and importing them in small bulk (which means they pay more, margins must be met, etc). - Great selection of Liquor and Wine. It DOES have surprising competitive pricing even with big chain stores that are miles away. - Their wine selection is very similar to the craft brew, but not as pricey as the craft beer (in terms of comparing margins) - Last but not least: Their staff is awesome, always more than friendly, have a great customer loyalty program (via keychain QR code or an App but it is managed by a third party), and generally just seem happy and aren't drones compared to the bigger chains, or the more 'ghetto' stores that has staff that don't speak but a word or 2 of english. read more

Favorite liquor store in the Highlands! Huge beer selection.. Love this place! Get your rewards herrre! 50 points is a $50 credit!

The owner is a very friendly individual that knows his trade well. We just moved to the neighborhood from Seattle, mr. friendly owner guy accomodated my wife's request for Oregon based brew, found us a case, had it delivered to his shop in a matter of days. I've been back since, decent prices on the stuff you want ... great neighborhood store. 'Walkability' for a neighborhood is a 'quality metric' homeowners should consider when they are buying a house somewhere ... as in, I'm gonna walk to the liquor store and get myself some booze from the friendly liquor store guy. I grew up in a town that had stores mixed within the neighborhood like Sloans Lake does, this liquor store brings it all back home for me in this regard. Feels good to go to and support this store. Now if they'd make enough money and open a bakery too , shit howdy, that'd be awesome. read more

The guy (owner?) gave me a great referral on an inexpensive red wine. small shop, but love the vibe.

The owners and staff of Toast! are always very helpful and friendly. They're really part of the neighborhood and not just a store. There are always new beers and wines to try out and their recommendations are always helpful. It's awesome to have them just a couple blocks away. read more

Love this place. Really nice selection of wines. great customer service, just perfect little spot.

I have a bit of a wine problem. My boyfriend and I just moved to the Highlands/Sloans Lake area and we were super stoked to find this little place. The owners are incredibly friendly- like handshakes and name exchanges friendly. We have been very pleased with the unique and tasty selection- not to mention super value! We had a killer bottle of Grenache last night which set us back a whole ten bucks. I'm on a "no hard liquor" thing right now, but when I'm over that I will most definitely be trying some of the tequilas they have too. Haven't tried any of the beers but again, they seem to have a very cool selection of microbrews. All in all, we have lived in the 'hood for about a week and have been in every night but one. Mostly due to the 6 inches of snow. I feel so fortunate to live a stones throw away from such a cool place. read more

If you were going to open your own Wine / liquor store... This is what it would look and feel like! Phenomenal shop!! Great service as well!

In a neighborhood with several fine wine/beer/liquor stores, this one stands out. The beer selection won't blow you away with volume, but it's clearly selected by someone with an eye to providing options for all levels of beer drinkers (snobs?). For example: you won't find every beer Avery makes; but you'll find IPA, White Rascal, and Maharaja. Further, any place that has Russian River Supplication has a high quality selection. Owners are great. Friendly in a neighborhoodly way, but also knowledgeable and more than willing to talk specifics (hops vs. malt balance). The prices are also very competitive. The above mentioned Supplication is $11.99 a bottle--I'd bet that's as good as you'll find in Denver. read more

LOVE THESE GUYS!. Had a block party over the weekend and Brian provided first class service. He made us Moscow Mules on Tap! It was such a hit with our guests that we went back and got a second pony keg of them. If you want someone that takes care of you rather then buying from someone who barely speaks English, Toast is your place. I'll be going here for many years to come. read more
