We need to get Richmond out of the alcohol business. My apologies to the nice state employees here,…read morebut if privatization happened, this and all booze stores would be better. Capitalism and the free market, are an improvement over government enterprises. I do like the employees here, but let's be honest about the pricing. It is much higher than private liquor stores in DC and Maryland. There's no getting around that. This store does have a decent selection. During Christmas time, it's got good sets for family members. One of my aunts loves the Jack Daniels one, and each year it's different. That is pretty cool. The store is clean and organized by section. I wish the folks here well, as they are polite and helpful, but let's let the market handle this sales process.

In the Harris Teeter Pender Campus strip, you'll miss this location if you blink while driving by. Maybe that is why it is never crowded and I always feel I can leisurely peruse the shelves without pressure if getting out of the way of other shoppers. Last year for our Halloween party, the patient attendant searched inventory in several stores to locate a couple bottles of black vodka for one of the seasonally themed drinks we were serving. He then called the other store and asked them to set aside the bottles and have them waiting for us. Other times, I've just brought in a list of spirits needed to make specialty cocktails and the attendant has gone to the shelves and brought the items to the counter--in essence doing my shopping for me. I really couldn't ask for better customer service.

Looking forward to Christmas. A Scottish Irish family loves booze. Soon the gift packs will arrive…read more This is definitely one of the better looking ABC stores. Richmond it is time, to allow the privatization of liquor stores in Virginia. You can get more for less in DC or Maryland. That being said a good selection. Also improvements to the tequila choices, gets a Muy bien! The employees here are friendly and knowledgeable. They will square you away. The prices are going to be expensive, until the state government gets out of this business. This is a nice store though. Parking is a cinch, and please don't drink and drive.

Vienna Vintner is a cute European looking line standing building across from big shopping plazas. It's built like a tavern with a partial loft/second floor upstairs with seating. The space is divided into a "tasting room" on the right and a wine store on the left. They apparently have wine tastings on the regular (I've been missing out!) Overall a really friendly place that's relaxed and pleasant. We were given a tour and helped immediately. We ended up winning an award for one of our wine choices, so these recommendations really hit the mark! Will definitely be back. I was also surprised by how affordable these wines are. I wasn't expecting to find any wines under $25 but ended up seeing quite a few in the $15 range. They also gave us a generous discount.

With that being said, I really do like this location. Having a scotch Irish family, we do have some drinkers. During Christmas I'll make the pilgrimage here. They have excellent holiday sets. Am grateful for these as, they add a bit of value and kindness to gifts. Am happy they allow the "Apple Pie Moonshine " to be sold. It's called that for nostalgia purposes, but this is a tasty treat. Their prices are higher due to being a government enterprise. Yet very nice employees at this store. They have a good selection of every booze group if that term is correct. Please be responsible, and don't drink and drive.

You have to go to the back of University Mall. The prices are okay. It is long past time, for Richmond to privatize liquor sales. You'll find more competitive prices, in nearby DC or Maryland.
