This was close to my hotel but the owner definitely upcharges where he can. I bought a bottle of tonic that was expired. I didn't think I'd have to check the date. It was flat when I opened it. Beer was more expensive than other locations. Shop around and you will find better prices and service. read more

Walking distance from our hotel made this an easy choice. It is a bonus when in a new city that you find a nice liquor shop to go to that doesn't make you feel uneasy about taking your wife along. Friendly and helpful staff guided us to a selection of wines that we thought we would enjoy. In and out and back to the room to see if we chose wisely! Thank you read more

Union Square Wine & Spirits - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - San Francisco, California

bought a pack of cigs and the guy said $17. swiped my card and left to find a day after that he charged me $17,50. might be cc fee but that was not disclosed to me. small businesses need our support while they turn around and scam us. today I filled a complain with attorney general office, I know that sound silly , but they have to be transparent with what they charge or that is illegal based on consumer protection law. any one who had same experience please contact the attorney general office read more

Unbelievably prejudiced, bigoted, and full of insecurity at least the way they treated me. Simply because of my somewhat disheveled hair/beard look or something despite showering and having pretty clean clothes it seems like they assume i am some thieving bum trying to steal from them or something. First of all they requested in a pretty judgmental tone i did not have a problem with initially simply requesting that i leave my bags by the door, which is fine as is pretty standard for many businesses, and i did not hesitate to leave my bags by the door or complain as they requested even with the dismissiveness i sensed in their tone. i was truly interested in purchasing some heirloom whiskey or craft beer too, and was talking to them like a normal person and a friendly genuinely interested customer. then when i was simply grabbing my wallet from my bag by the door they told me to leave that they did not need my business. I tried to reassure them calmly that i was simply obtaining my wallet It but they wouldnt listen at all! It seemed pretty clear to me in their subtly judgmental and close-minded/dismissive tone that they were just dead set on viewing people that looked at all like they might be impoverished as pieces of sh*t who deserved to be hated on and treated like they were worthless. this is what really bugged me and i hope they lose a fair number of business because it until they make up for disrespecting people so unfairly! especially since that i know of i have not stolen anything knowingly in my life! Get checked small minded fools! but ultimately godbless read more

Union Square Wine & Spirits - location of liquor store in review - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - San Francisco, California

Such kind gentleman running the store! Incredibly helpful and take the time to answer any questions. They are familiar with their products, and items are reasonably priced. Will definitely be coming here again read more

Close to Grand Hyatt and decent prices for SF! Excellent wine selection and the owner is helpful. We made him smile once;)

Well stocked small liquor store. They had small Bottles of Glenlivet 18 year for 29.99 which I felt was very reasonable. They also had the bottles of Veuve For 69.99 which was a realistic price point based on the city. The two men working the counter were very nice and helpful. read more

I recently purchased a nice ($60) bottle of Pinot Noir here. I brought it to a dinner party hosted by two chefs. Someone opened the wine, poured it into a decanter, and it became immediately apparent that the wine was corked. When I brought the bottle/cork back and explained that it was corked to the two men that manage this store, they started screaming at me. They had remembered that I took my time picking a bottle (reading reviews?) and told me this wasn't their fault and to call the 'company' (presumably they mean vineyard). When I informed them that I would contact my bank regarding this charge, one of the men started screaming at me and told me to 'get the f**k out of his store.' This was the most confrontational experience I have ever had at a wine shop. This place is probably fine for spirits, but PLEASE find a better store with educated management if you intend on buying any wines. read more

Convenient location with a halfway decent selection crammed in there. However, it's very overpriced and the service is always rude and condescending. Just walk a block up to Bush and support a different local business that appreciates the patronage and has substantially lower prices #RipOff read more

Seems to be a pretty new place. Very clean, standard prices on liquor. Run by a friendly old man. They were playing classical music in the store, which is unusual but it's a plus in my book, contributes to the generally classy atmosphere of this store compared to the other grimey liquor stores in the area. read more

Union Square Wine & Spirits - fifth of Fireball $25 - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - San Francisco, California

So the owner replies to my review with a completely false statement. The interaction happened as I laid out in. I am changing the story at this point does not change my review, opinion of the store, or opinion of him read more

Classiest wine shop in the city I've seen for such reasonable prices. Love it here with all the vintage barrels as decor! read more

See all

Super overpriced. $15 more than usual for a bottle of Bombay Safire . Had Fever tree but again about double normal price. I will say though they have a decent selection for such a small store . Save your $$ and go to Safeway read more

This store is well stocked and in a great location. It is a family run business with kind hearted passionate people. Shelves of a variety of select liquors. So much so it can be a bit dizzying. Stunning in fact. I highly recommend this store if you are staying in Union Square. read more

The Hindu looking guy that was working at the time when I went in didn't really know anything about wine, or liquor. Purchased a bottle of red wine and tasted stale. Don't go here, a find a Safeway or bevmo. read more

They have a pretty decent selection of whiskies, from Scotland to Japan; actually, they have a very, very good selection of Japanese whiskies are available here. But... possibly at the highest prices I've seen for whiskies in downtown SF. For the "typical" selection, it's maybe the same price or a few bucks more, but for the real good stuff be ready to pay a premium around 50% higher than you're used to seeing. With all that said, they DO have some nice rare Japanese whiskies, so if you're desperate and have some extra pocket cash you might just luck out here. read more

Has a good selection of liquors and wine..would have liked a larger selection of cold wines or at least a quick wine chiller - especially since we are staying at a hotel and the room fridge will take sometime. read more

Good selection, fair prices (bottle of my fav wine $5 cheaper here than at another store around the corner). Well organized. Friendly staff.

My favorite place to buy liquor! Conveniently located and the man who owns the store ,Nick, is incredible helpfully and very knowledgable. If you are in the neighborhood it is the go to place to pick up a great tasting bourbon or a fancy champagne. Great range of products at great prices! read more

They didn't have a huge selection of liquor, mostly wine, but definitely was our go to spot since it was the only safe & open location almost to midnight! Decent prices as well, very clean place! read more

Excellent selection. Knowledgable owner. This is what a business should be! If you are in the Union Square area please stop in. You will not be disappointed. read more
