Petrolia Liquor Store is your average neighbourhood liquor store…read more The guy working is usually not into small talk, he wants you to pick your poison, pay and go. They don't have a huge selection here but they have enough to be a good little shop. The prices are fairly average. There are some items that are a bit more expensive than one of the huge chain liquor stores, but that's to be expected from a small store. It's average. Nothing special about it. If you're in the neighbourhood, it's handy.

The prices are not worth it when ever staff member treats you like garbage. Don't make the same mistake I did. Go to another store where the business actually appreciates your business.

I checked out this place on a whim because I was walking to my friend's house and I'm glad I did!…read moreIt's a very cute little store but it is packed to the brim with different types of wines from all over the world. I was very impressed! The selection is amazing. I also noticed a tasting station which I thought was very interesting. Unfortunately, due to the current world situation, it wasn't really open, but that is OK. They don't just have wine either. They have a great selection of scotch as well! I would recommend checking this place out if you're a scotch lover too. The staff were friendly and helpful. It wasn't too busy when we were there but I can definitely see this place becoming busy on a weekend!

Really wonderful vino! Popped in to grab a few bottles of white and was really, really impressed…read morewith how fabulous the selection was. And the 2 bottles that I purchased were not overly expensive for how good they were! The husband and wife (I believe) that own the store, were very helpful an told me all about an upcoming wine event. They also do wine tastings in the store. Have a good selection of bitters for all you cocktail connoisseurs out there. I really think this is one of the best places on the west end to go for wine. And being in the same lot as Cobb's is awesome. Grab a lovely loaf of bread and an excellent bottle of wine... You have a fabulous night ahead!

I'm not trained, I'm not a connoisseur, I do know what I like, and what I don't. I hate blowing good $$ on a bottle to take to friends (or worse ...strangers!) only to open it and no one likes it. Go in, tell them what you are looking for, what you like and what your budget is - they can accommodate ANY budget from low to high. Weekly wine email POW - Pick of the Week and there are some very very nice deals to be had! But be QUICK! They sell out of the deals fast. Heck, I've ordered my wine once or twice by twitter... but I'd recommend you call. ;-) Wine tastings are a great way to get to know some new bottles! We had an after work tasting here with great success - and YES they do provide gluten free munchies! Be sure to let them know and they will look out for you. I'm a sucker for good snacks, and they spread that accompanied our wine tasting was ideal! You're not there for a meal, but I'd like to know how the wine fares against chocolate, cheese, fruit or crackers. They also host themed tastings and the tickets make GREAT gifts! Ahem... I'm open to receiving gifts! Baseline might be a short 15 minute jaunt from Edmonton,but there are few folks I would trust selecting for my daily drinker or stocking for any of your special occasions!

I went in looking for a particular wine. They did not have it…read more I was told they would be happy to order it in for me. It took exactly one week. I received 10% off my order :) It was loaded into my car and I was so grateful. They offered me a glass of Scotch or Bourbon. How nice! It was a little early for me to start drinking, but I'll take a rain check. There is usually a tasting of some sort on a weekly basis. The sandwich board at the front has the details. Really impressed with the beer selection as well. Nice, clean family run store.

Wow, am I ever in love with this place!! Their main focus is beer. From Craft beer, to Imports to…read morethe rare and hard to find. The people who own and work in this store really love ale! They are so helpful, so fun and so focused on helping you find your perfect brew. They have jugs along the back wall where the Kegs are located, so you can try out a draft or two and then take a jug of it home with you - I believe it stays fresh for quite a while too, as long as it is sealed properly. They have tastings classes and beer nights. Invite beer and liquor reps in for events. A big shout out to the Beer Geeks! The selection of liquor is also very good as is the wine. Last time I was in they had a table up front of *sale vino! I assume this is to get older stock out of the way/make room for new vintages. What ever the reason, I love picking up a great bottle and getting a deal! It is very conveniently located for all of us who live on the South Side. Just off the Whytemud on 99th before it turns into Parsons Road. My only gripe... Twice I have showed up on a Sunday, forgetting they are closed ;p

Juanita is a friendly owner/operator with a cute little dog named Bruin. She's knowledgeable about the products and will help you find what you're looking for. Often there are bargains hanging out on the front shelf, but I urge you to take a trip around the World as you see all the beautiful wines representing their countries. Some days, she'll have a couple of different bottles available for tasting.

Within a few hours the order was on my doorstep and they had even included a little bottle of bubbles as an apology for the delay. Even with a little hiccup, online ordering was easy and the customer service was great. Highly recommend.

You can find virtually anything here in some unique flavours including special limited edition drinks. They have bottles for every budget. The staff really know their stuff inside out and around. They host wine tasting events throughout the month including free ones. The ones I've been to have been pretty good and reasonably priced. Usually you sample 7-8 wines and they provide very light snacks to go with it (cheese, bread, and deli meat). Sometimes they have pricier events in which I believe you get decent appies. Depending on the person pouring your wine you can get very lucky or unlucky with the amount you receive.

This isn't really the kind of place you just grab a case of beers for the weekend from, although…read moreyou can certainly buy it here. I prefer to come here when I'm looking for something special, like a gift. Their specialty is wine, but you can still ask them about other things. We've taken their advice on tequila and rum, and so far no complaints. Today, I went in looking for a very specific beer for a wonderful computer geek who fixed my incredibly temperamental piece of...Dell. Anyway, I found the Innis and Gunn type he likes, four different kinds, and 'Trooper' from Robinson's Brewery, named for the Iron Maiden song. They ranged in price from $3.23 to $5.42, which is decent in my opinion. In fact, this goes on the Christmas List, because I'm going to be grabbing more later for stocking stuffers. Of course, if you're looking for something super cool and pricey, they keep the $400 champagne on the highest shelves behind the till.

I agree with the other review that you can't really ask the staff for specifics on most of what they carry because they don't know much about their items. They just sell the liquor.

Crown Liquor has good selection but even better prices. That's the reason to stop here. It's cheap. You know you're going to get a good deal. But you've got to know what you're looking for because the staff isn't particularly knowledgeable about wine or import beer. You'll get blank faces if you ask them something specific. The only downside is that the store's located at a busy intersection and it's a pain to get in and out of, especially in rush hour on a Friday - when everyone's got the same thing on their mind.
