This store houses a solid selection of local craft beer, for sure. Beers from many local NJ…read morebreweries can be found here, as well as craft beers from across the country. This is a major draw for me. I have also purchased some interesting bourbons here that I have been unable to locate anywhere else, which is quite surprising in a good way. The store has a large selection and is clean and well-kept. Prices are a couple of dollars more than what you'd expect in some cases, but the convenience of stopping in while on a grocery shopping trip is a big selling point for me. Can staff be friendlier? Sometimes. It depends on the day. However, I've never experienced anything like what others have posted and have always received the assistance I need.

Just had a very uncomfortable experience in this store. After I walked in and started looking for…read moresomething specific, one of the employees started following me immediately, and then interrupted my walking pattern by standing in my way. I turned around and went a different way to avoid the employee but they kept staring. I finally felt so uncomfortable that I just left the store. I'm guessing they assumed I was underage, because I do look young, but that's what an ID check is for at the register. Though I was wearing a tie dye romper with my hair in a pony tail and jellies, you can't assume age. By the way, I am 40 years old.

If you know this tiny shopping center - years ago there was a Weight Watchers right next to a hot…read moredog joint. Talk about a conflict of interests, right? But that was then, this is now. And now there's mighty fine Meadow Liquors (next to that WW) that looks minuscule from the outside but when you walk inside you realize it's pretty deep and they've made sure to not waste an inch of available space. A wicked amount of quality beers and wines and plenty of the hard stuff (that can make us do foolish things after too many shots - we've all been there!) as well. Cool staff. Solid pricing. This place is better than some stores twice its size.

Then he yell at a customer from across the counter saying he should have a job at Instacart because the costumer couldn't understand his crappy finger pointing direction. Other than that, the store had pretty standard inventory. So you'll find the regular stuff that everyone has. Nothing special about it. Btw it's a Shop rite liquor store.

I can easily find them here much cheaper than local competitors. They definitely have the largest selection of boxed wines and often are fully stocked. If I want more of a specialty wine, I usually rely on Wine Country around the corner. Small selection of chips and cigs. I would love to see them carry soda, but I assume they would rather have you pick that up at their mothership-ShopRite. Ample parking in lot.

The setting: mid-to-late-1980's. Your a teen going to more and more parties (either invited or…read morejust crashing them with your friends). Since everyone is underage you have to rely on an older sibling to score alcohol or there were two locations that actually delivered hooch - one was a store in Kearny next to the QuikChek. The other? The Liquor Shed in Lyndhurst. You had your friend with the most mature-sounding voice make the call and we thought the trick to make them think we're definitely of age was to order a bottle of Seagram's Seven - wasn't that something only really old people drank?! (But some of the delivery guys wouldn't 'be cool' when they realized it was a party and no one was actually 21 and take everything back to the store.) Cut to 30 years later and now I find myself hitting here from time to time in route to a party (some things never change) and they're always reliable with a decent selection of beer, ice and a lottery scratch-off (hey - someone has to hit big, right?!). Cool guy behind the counter, okay pricing, good-sized parking lot, and just a stone's throw from Jo-Jo's if you have a hankering for a good slice of pizza.

Many of the vegetables seem old--not in top condition. Lettuce is hit or miss. It is not easy. The walkway in front of the store is often littered with cigarette butts.

I have found many instances where to computers were wrong at checkout and charged regular prices.

It does however lack in the amount of Hispanic/Brazilian products since it is further away from that community. Other than that it's got a decent organic section and for the most part I don't have issues finding my items. From time to time they'll shift items around after re-doing aisles, but you get used to it quickly. Sometimes seasonal produce like organic strawberries and blueberries go quickly so be sure to stock up if you ever see them available in the produce aisle. Prices are also comparable to Trader Joe's and other grocery stores.
