I walked into Valley Market and Liquor expecting fruits, veggies, and grocery aisles. Plot twist: it's a liquor store! Think of it as BevMo's little sister smaller in size but still packed wall-to-wall with an impressive selection of drinks. The owners were incredibly friendly and helpful, and they also carry non-alcoholic beverages, juices, candy and snacks for those of us who occasionally remember to hydrate. Great little shop with big selection energy!!! read more

If you're even remotely serious about bourbon--or rare spirits of any kind--Valley Market Liquor in Walnut, CA is not just a liquor store... it's a destination. I say this as someone who actively bourbon hunts, who understands allocations, secondary markets, distillery drops, and the difference between "hard to find" and actually rare. I also say this as someone who regularly interacts with and learns from some of the most respected names in the bourbon community. I've been around. I know what elite looks like. Valley Market Liquor is firmly in that tier. Their inventory is nothing short of staggering. This is one of those places where you immediately realize you're not in a normal liquor store. Rare, special, and allocated bottles are not treated like mythical unicorns here--they're curated, thoughtfully stocked, and rotated with an eye for true enthusiasts. Whether you're chasing limited releases, hard-to-find single barrels, elite store picks, or bottles you've only ever seen online or on Instagram, there's a very real chance Valley Market Liquor has it... and at a fair price. What's most impressive is not just the volume, but the quality of the selection. This isn't random hype inventory. It's a collection built by people who understand bourbon--heritage, mash bills, distillery profiles, aging statements, and what actually drinks well versus what just looks good on a shelf...and their bundle offers are incredible, and well-thought-out! The customer service is on another level. Ly (the owner), and staff, are wonderfully friendly and are genuine experts. Conversations here feel like talking shop with fellow bourbon hunters, not being sold to by someone reading shelf tags. They listen. They ask what you like. They make recommendations that are thoughtful, educated, and spot-on. It's immediately clear they live and breathe this world. And beyond the knowledge, the kindness stands out. The owners are incredibly welcoming, helpful, and sincere. You feel appreciated the moment you walk in or place an order. That matters--especially in a community like bourbon, where relationships and trust mean everything. Their online presence through lyliquor.com and vmliquor.com deserves its own standing ovation. These sites are unlike anything else out there. The availability alone is jaw-dropping--bottles that most stores never see are just... there. And the pricing? Unbeatable. Legitimately some of the most competitive prices I've seen anywhere, especially given the caliber of inventory. For collectors, enthusiasts, and serious drinkers who know the market, this is the kind of online store you bookmark, check often, and quietly tell your closest bourbon friends about--because it's that good. Shipping is another area where Valley Market Liquor in Walnut, CA absolutely shines. Their packaging is exceptional--meticulous, professional, and clearly designed by people who care deeply about what they're sending. Every bottle is triple-protected, carefully wrapped, and secured with the kind of attention you'd expect if they were shipping their own personal collection. Bottles arrive pristine. Every time. There are liquor stores... and then there are institutions. Valley Market Liquor is the latter. This is the kind of place that earns lifelong customers, not just one-time purchases. It's rare to find a shop that combines massive inventory, elite product knowledge, fair pricing, exceptional service, flawless shipping, and genuinely good people under one roof--but this one does. If you're a bourbon hunter, a collector, a serious enthusiast, or even someone just starting to explore the world of great whiskey, this is a store you need to experience. I'll be shopping here often, recommending it loudly, and proudly calling it my go-to. Valley Market Liquor has earned a customer for life--and then some. Absolutely a hidden gem, @bourbon_hunter and @brewzle! #bourbonhunting #bourboncommunity #liquorstorefind read more

I'm not sure who are writing all of these negative reviews for this business, but my experience could not have been more positive!! They have a great selection and were very kind and accommodating. I will definitely come back to shop again. read more

I guess same review as everyone, the owner (lady) is very rude. My mom gave her a $20 and she insisted she didn't. Also, suggested my 2 year old niece was going to steal a candy in a very rude manner. Really? read more

Don't know why there are many negative reviews? I'm appreciated this liquor store that has many wines & Spirits that you won't even find out there! For the price there are many comparison with other stores but over all the price in this liquor store is really reasonable! I got my Suntory HIBIKI Japanese whiskey here with $10-20 cheaper to compare with other stores! Especially this store run by 2 Seniors, Maybe their English is not really well but hey they can communicate with you and so friendly and nice to you, we should give them a thumbs up already why so many negative reviews? read more

They have so many selection! Cool bottles n great price!! Cool beer! E-cigarettes...... read more

I had the same experience as the review before me. I went in today to cash in my scratchers. The older lady was very rude from the start. She kept insisting for me to go to the machine to go check if won but I told her multiple times that I have the app. The apps shows if you won or not. She got even more upset and stopped helping me. She helped the guy behind me who also had a scratcher to cash in. She cashed it in for him, it was $80. I then asked her again if I can cash mine in and she said she doesn't have money to come back later. She was just rude and was lucky I am a nice person. read more

The two women who work in this store are extremely rude! My husband wanted to cash in his scratchers and because he didn't buy any more tickets, they suddenly began giving him attitude. She gave him all one dollar bills and after she finished counting and pushed the stack toward him, he reached for the money and she slapped his hand! My husband was in disbelief and asked her why she would do that. She casually said she wasn't done counting. The other woman was rude as well! Horrible place, we will never enter that store again. Also, very dusty and dirty! read more

Not only do they overcharge by almost doubling their price for certain bottles. They also denied my purchase unless I paid a minimum $200. (Two hundred dollars) first in order to purchase the bottle I was looking for that was already doubled in price. Very disorganized with tequila bottles mixed in with wine, also very messy with empty boxes everywhere. Gladly will never come here again. I'm pretty sure what they're doing is illegal by the way. read more

I found everything I was looking for at this store, and the prices were reasonable. The store was well-organized and also great customer service. read more

Over the phone a lady told me I need to buy 3 bottles to buy the one I wanted. I really don't understand this at all! Is this even legal to do? That is just disappointing to know I've placed my order online and then having it cancelled. read more

Nice selection to choose from and the people that run the place are exceptionally friendly, knowledgeable, and willing to find what they don't have in the store. read more

I'm pretty sure majority of liquor stores are small business/ family owned. The people who work here are so sweet! We were at Ten Ren's next door and my friend wanted to get an Arizona drink. It was exactly $1.04. They have a pretty good amount of stuff here, they have all your junk food and necessities! Again, very sweet people here. They both greeted us with a huge smile! read more

Nice store with great customer service! I always come in here when I need some snacks and drinks. What's also nice is they have face masks and hand sanitizer at decent prices with the covid 19 going on. read more

Small, not clean and everything looks expired. Don't even bother stopping here.

They charge .75 cent for using a card so make sure to have cash, or you will get a mean gesture (like your stupid for using your card) from the women who work's here. read more
