Though this isn't the closest liquor store to my parents' house, it is most certainly the best one in the area! My dad has been coming here for over 15 years, he's a regular, they know him well. Young's offers a great selection of international wines and liquors. It's big so there's a lot of diversity and SO MANY OPTIONS! The employees are always friendly and helpful, and the prices are reasonable as well. The best perk of coming to Young's, aside from the rewards card, is every Saturday they have a wine tasting. Some weeks it's a smaller selection of wines and vendors, others it's much bigger and every so often they throw in some cheese and crackers to nosh on while you sip! Great neighborhood spot! read more

The fluorescent lights hum like a cheap electric razor overhead, buzzing against the high wooden shelves and the endless ranks of bottles lined up like soldiers waiting to be bought. You walk into Young's, and the air smells like oak, expensive dust, and the quiet desperation of suburban commuters trying to buy an escape before the 6:15 train pulls out. ​Row after row of bottles. California, France, Italy, all neatly lined up under soft green tags, little glass soldiers waiting to march off to somebody's slow death on a Tuesday night. Up front, they've got premixed Margaritas sitting on the polished counter right next to a price tag for two hundred dollar Napa Cabernet. That's the joke of it. A man can come in here with twenty bucks looking to drown the afternoon away on tot gut Old Irish Rose and Thunderbird, or he can drop a week's pay on a label with a fancy crest, and in the end, the hangover feels exactly the same. ​The floors are clean wood, the aisles are wide enough to stumble through without knocking over the Bordeaux, and the glass glints off the ceiling like cheap diamonds. It's too neat, too orderly for the kind of drinking that gets you through a soon to be fall into winter of 2026, but the booze is real, the selection is deep enough to sink a ship, and nobody asks you "hows the family or where are you going tonight" when you hand over the cash. ​It's a good joint. Grab your bottle, pay the man, and get out into the dark before the illusion wears off. read more

Horrible customer service and wildly overpriced. Everything here is at a minimum 20% more than any other store in the area. The bigger concern is the atrocious customer service. I placed an order online and received a confirmation email, but never a "ready for pick up email". So I called and spoke with an employee who confirmed that they had the bottle and it was set aside for me. The next day when I came in to pick it up, the person behind the counter couldn't find it. So he asked the owner who very loudly shouted from below the stairs that they don't have it and that the order was cancelled. In addition to being told it was available, I never received a cancellation email. I told that owner that I spoke with a person yesterday and he said "The guy doesn't know anything." Well that's an indictment on you as an owner and your inability to communicate with your staff. I wasn't given an apology or anything. I drove an hour to get there and just stormed out angry and will never go back. Neither should you. read more

I had a very pleasant experience over the phone, especially services provided by Mr Andrew. He was very understanding, helpful and gave excellent customer service. I would have bought more products if I was not in hurry for the delivery. Because of His services I will visit and buy at this store again. Andrew actually made my day with his great phone service plus he also gave information on their Wine Club. The Wine loyalty card which builds up Points that you can use to get money off future purchases, wine tasting and gives you special discounts. Thank you Andrew ;-) read more

Beware the bait and switch! This store has a club membership where members pay an exorbitant membership fee for the privilege of then paying retail prices for products that you would pay everywhere else. Non-club members pay a premium (15% in my case), though the club price is the price advertised on the shelves. You are not made aware of the mark up until you get to the register. I will never walk in that store again let alone buy anything from those hocus pocus marketers. Particularly given that Best Wine & Spirit on E. Shore Rd. is so close by. I should have done myself a favor and walked out, instead of foolishly completing the purchase and leaving with the feeling that I'd just been ripped off. A permanent note to self. read more

They have a tremendous wine selection, and almost every other kind of liquor you might need. The staff there is always friendly and helpful. Highly recommend joining their wine club, as you get discounted prices on everything. Pays itself back in no time and the prices generally beat anything else out there, including Total Wine. read more

Huge selection of wine. Liquor wise, they carry a lot of top shelf stuff. For me this is actually a drawback bc I'm a bottom shelf whiskey guy. But I realize that I'm looking for the unicorn of booze which is the single malt bottle of scotch under 12$. So that makes me a pain in the behind to please. They have a loyalty card which builds up Points you can use to get money off future purchases, and occasionally gives you special discounts. If your looking for a fast gift this is a good option, they carry something in almost every category. Everyone in manhasset knows young's. If your into mid-high end liquor and wine young's where you want to go. The staff is mostly young locals. You get the occasional old timer who knows what your looking for, but for the most part the guys/girls working there don't really have a lot of answers for you. I went there looking for a good grappa once and they looked at me like I had two heads. Then they proceeded to tell me how bad grappa tastes, and I shouldn't drink it. Turns out the had some grappa but when I brought it home I realized why these guys hate grappa so much. It was by far the worst I ever had. Little stuff like this could happen at any liquor store though. I'm just buying my grappa elsewhere from now on. But it doesn't stop me from visiting. Heck I'm back right now ; ) read more

The shop seems lack of integrity, I ordered a bottle of whisky through their website. They confirmed my order, and I picked up in store. The staff and owner didn't say anything. Then they emailed me few hours later, said they were under charging me for the bottle, and that bottle should be cost 3 times higher than I just paid, so they told me they will charge extra money on my card if I don't agree to return them the bottle. read more

Great wine and liquor store. Love how they place the wine bottles at a 30 degree angle so you can read them easily. They also have a wide selection of California and South American wines which is really convenient. In the summer time they regularly do some wine tasting, helping you narrow down which wines you might like to purchase. Friendly staff and very clean place, highly recommend! read more

I been coming to this store for a few months. Parking can be difficult on weekends, very limited. Eveey Fri and Sat, theu have tastings. Real good way to taste before buying. I believe, Joe is a sommelier. Extremely knowledgeable of wines. I walked in looking for a n Italian Merlot, and somehow he managed to convince me to get 7 bottles, $225 later. Great salesman and you can understand and see that he is informative, attentive and very down to earth. If you come looking for a bargain, this is not really the place. It can turn into an expensive wine outing. However, you are sure to take home very good wine and sometimes you have to be willing to pay top money for the advice. Will certainly come back and check the tastings week to week. Make sure to sign up in tue website, so you get the notices via email. read more

Young's Fine Wines & Spirits - Machete Cab, $48 it was not just another bottle. He gave me the history and detailed info of the vineyard. Wow, what an amazing bottle. - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Manhasset, New York

This is a very friendly well run store located in Manhasset. There is street parking or a shared parking lot available. You have pay about .50 to park in the lot. This is the largest wine liquor store that I have seen in Nassau County. The store has two large rooms. Behind the register, they have their mini bottles of liquor. In the front left hand side of the store, they have a decent liquor/ liquor selection. The also keep their chilled white wines and champagne in the front section of the store. In the back room the feature lots of wine in alphabetic order, separated by country. I typically come here for their wine. They have a large selection, at every price point. I've seen something as low as $10. (for a large bottle) and as high as $750. (for a litter bottle) The also have a small section of the small wine bottle, (the bottles that our about 3 glasses) There $$$ very expensive wines ($250.+) are located in a locked case. There is also a bottle of vodka that they keep locked in a case for over $2,000 dollars. It is a really cool looking bottle. A very big plus about this store is their wine tastings. They have wine tasting every Saturday. The staff are the ones that run their wine tastings. They typically feature about 3 whites and 6 reds at a tasting. Sometimes, the bring an outside vendor to have a tasting for Champagne or Liquor. The staff are very opinionated and knowledge about wine. There is absolutely zero pressure to buy at the tastings. There is not judgment, if you taste all of the wines, and do not end up buying anything. The tastings are always a nice event to go to, because there is a regular crowd that come to the tastings, and everyone has a good time. Two times a year, Young's has an extra special tastings, with more than 30 different wines and lots of snacks to go with it... I think it's in the Spring and the Fall. If you are overwhelmed by the vast selection and need a suggestion, anyone on the wine side can do that easily for you. Again no pressure. You can be added to the store's email list. They will not overwhelm you with bs emails. The will send you info for the weekly tasting, and anything promotional that is going on n the store. The cashiers are very friendly. If you are buying a gift for someone, they will gift wrap it for you, free of charge. Honestly, this is a win win one stop liquor wine store. The prices and selection are better than the smaller liquor stores. read more

Young's Fine Wines & Spirits - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Manhasset, New York

So overpriced. And the cost to join the wine club is ridiculous just to get normal pricing that's in line with everywhere else.

I made an order online but they haven't even sent me a tracking info. They sent me wrong wines, so I sent them back. I haven't received refund for over 2 weeks and they say they haven't received the wines back. The person I've talked to was very rude and wan't willing to resolve the issue. Absolutely horrible service, Ridiculously overpriced!!! No reason to deal with them again. read more

I found this store through wine-searcher.com after looking for a specific spirit. Instead of ordering online, I called the store today at 2:06 pacific time to verify that they could ship out of state (to California) and also to see how I could get the club price instead of the regular price. The man on the phone said yes and he could take the order directly. After providing my order I gave him my Credit card and shipping information, as well as an email address where he could send the receipt and shipping information. He said it would ship today. Instead of getting a pending charge on my credit card for this purchase, a pending charge appeared for a dating website approximately 3 1/2 hours later. Amex flagged the charge immediately and is sending a new card. Coincidence? Unlikely. I only use this specific card for intermittent purchases and I have not provided the number for somebody in months. Beware of this store if you don't want a fraudulent transaction. I'll be happy to retract this review and give a 5 star review if magically my order shows up and get billed appropriately.....but Amex said no attempt was made for this purchase and the same number of bottles in stock of the spirit remains on their website. read more

I was visiting family in the neighborhood for the holidays and happened upon a big wine shop. This place was huge and had all kinds of wines and liquors. All I wanted was 6 bottles, however they had a salesman who was very passionate about wine, and I wound up leaving with 12 bottles. His name was Brett (I remembered him, since my nephew's name is Brett). He was very knowledgeable, asked good questions and recommended some beauties that went great with our holiday dinner. Thank you again. I'll be back next year. read more

I was buying holiday gifts at Young's Wines. What a ltremendous selection. The new owners have done a great job. The salesman I had was extremely helpful. At first I thought this was going to be very hard, given their huge selection of wines, however Brett made it so easy for me to buy the many gifts I had to get. He asked good questions about each person I was buying for and selected the proper wines for everyone. I know, since I've already heard back from my people and they raved about the wines I got them. Thank you Youngs and thank you Brett! read more

I went in as a newcomer and asked for the discount that they offer on their web site and was told, "no" by some woman with fuzzy blonde hair. I promptly gave myself a discount by taking a couple of bottles off of my order. They lost over $50 in revenue off of that transaction. Although the one guy who helped me pick wine seemed knowledgeable, I was quite surprised that he did not offer to help me up to the counter with 8 bottles of wine. I won't be back. There are too many other places around to deal with the attitude here. read more

Peter was not very helpful and frankly rude when I called about a question. Poor customer service but monopoly location let's them get away with it. read more

I was very impressed by what the new owners have done with this store. Their selection of wines and spirits is better than it's ever been. One of their salesmen, a red headed guy with a beard, helped me choose my wines. He was great - suggesting new wines I might like based on what was already in my shopping cart. He also helped me pick out a really good tequila. I'll be back soon! read more

Extremely friendly and knowledgeable. There are wine people to help you with what you need! There's also a whiskey guy. Wine tastings are every Saturday from 1:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. The store is gargantuan with a huge selection. read more

Young's is showing their true colors during this time. Forcing orders on line, preventing customer access and rude treatment. Of course, as long as you stand outside, they will take your money. Note mine anymore! This insult on top of their member requirement to get reasonable pricing Is the last straw for me. read more

Great wine shop in Manhasset, NY with a large selection of premium wines from around the world. I was looking for Domain Ott Rose and couldn't find it anywhere on LI, but fortunately found it at Young's via Wine-searcher.com. This is a beautiful store that has great pricing with an extremely helpful, informative and friendly staff! Excellent overall experience, make sure to check them out....I know you'll be impressed! read more

To the reviewer Dan below regarding forcing orders online and preventing customer access...uh WHAT? They have been open during a PANDEMIC and you're complaining about them practicing safe business practices? I can safely bet that he thought their 'rude treatment' was because they couldn't let him in. Ridiculous! Please disregard that review to those reading. They have been nothing but extra cautious because they care about their staff and our community. I've been their customer for several years now and their prices, selection and customer service are phenomenal. Yelp should take his review down ASAP!! read more

Tremendous wine selection in the dedicated Wine Room - they've really come back to life. Their wine guy Robin is incredibly knowledgable. They also have bottles open for tastings. Really spectacular selection and super helpful in navigating the choices. read more

Young's Fine Wines & Spirits - This is just one wall in the wine room! - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Manhasset, New York

It has a pretty good assortment of both domestic and international wines and spirits for a small town shop, with a good section of items on sale. They also offer samples and tastings for some wines. They are really helpful with suggestions and advice if you are looking for something other than your go to wines. There's a refrigerated section by the registers for chilled wines, coolers, ciders/beers in case you need something right away. They also have a loyalty program but I have not personally used the points towards purchases. Always a pleasant experience whenever I come! read more

Nasty owner truly has gone down hill. Overpriced ! Not the Youngs of yesteryear Personal customer service by owner NONE read more

As a busy doctor I rarely take the time to write a positive review. However, I want to take this opportunity to express my enormous appreciation for Brett at Young's Fine Wines and Spirits on Plandome Road in Manhasset. More than anyone else at any other wine store I've ever been to, Brett has helped me choose wines that I have enjoyed immensely. And most of them were not expensive. Furthermore, Brett has taken the time to help me choose wines and spirits for more than a dozen of my co-workers, every one of whom has been extremely pleased with Brett's recommendations. It also helps that Young's has a fantastic selection. Go to Young's and ask for Brett. It's likely you'll be extremely pleased. read more

The best place for high quality wines. You get what you pay for. They know their stuff. Even if they don't have what you're looking for, they'll find it. read more

Maybe the best liquor shop on Long Island. Wine selection diverse and Scottish Whisky selection outstanding. They have whisky tastings on a regular basis and get a text message informing me of upcoming tastings. Club is great. Can't emphasize the section of quality whiskys. read more

Pathetic customer service ! So many good wine shops around, why bother with this one... I thought I was buying Tignanello and got Marchese Antinori Chianti instead - because of confusing labelling on both wine-searcher.com and their website. Customer service only tried to justified their point instead of listening, acknowledging and making up. Pathetic. I ended up with a wine I didn't want that I paid 50% more than any other shop around. What a disgrace. What an appalling strategy from this shop.... read more

The wine selection is diverse, the shipping was quick, and the customer service is great. Recently, I ordered a half-case of a Napa cab, but the wrong label arrived due to a mix-up on the site. However, they arranged for UPS to pick up the wines and offered me a quick refund and courtesy. I would easily buy from them again, taking comfort in attentive and reliable customer service. read more

This place has fallen off drastically in the past couple of years. Their selection is now limited, with lots of empty shelf space. Every time I've asked staff about the lack of inventory, they've managed to dodge the question. There are now better, recently opened choices in the area that have a more eclectic selection, so I've simply stopped shopping here after 16 years as customer. read more

I go there once a week for a bottle of wine..go to the counter...go to pay for the wine, kid points to a sign and says do you need the discount? I'm like what discount?? Oh the over 65 senior citizen discount...I said honey I am only 57 and why would you ask me a question like that??? The management told the employees to ask anyone they feel is over 65 I guess to see if they want the discount...The management is asking their staff to make an judgement call to guess someone's age. Needless to say it ruined my nite...Thanks Youngs! read more

Unbelievable customer service. They had a hard to find bottle of scotch in stock and Ed went out of his way to make sure that it got to me in perfect condition. Truly went out of his way. Thanks. read more
