“ The place was okay but did not have the brand of Scotch we were looking for (Dewar's, a very widely available brand) and they seemed not to want to give you a receipt for your purchase. The staff person said one would be available online "in a few days." The price for what I bought was similar to the price I pay in suburban Chicago but Washington slaps a 20.5% tax on every bottle. So a $28 purchase became a $36 with state and local taxes added. You have to scan your credit card to get into the place--not sure why but it's not very welcoming. ”
“ Ordered stuff online, and when they didn't have the item in stock, they called me to check on change to my order. Great service, and delivery! ”
“ OVERALL: 9.25/10 (Yelp Converted Score: 4.625/5 - rounds up to 5/5). I've been here a handful of times over the years I've lived in Belltown; I've gotta say that this place has become my go-to whenever I want to buy more of whatever beer/wine/spirit that I've newly been introduced to, but don't want to buy / can't find it at a grocery store (or other equivalent place, like BevMo). 1) VARIETY / SELECTION: 9/10. If you come in here looking for X specific item, they might not have it. However, if you're coming in here looking for "a stout/porter/dark ale", then you've come to the right place! In general though, I can also always depend on this establishment to stock the very best of the very best. I have to commend the pickers - one of the best beers I've ever had the pleasure of buying was the Speedway Vietnamese Coffee Stout - my friends still rave about how good that flavour was, and despite being the most expensive 64oz growler I've ever filled, after how good that stout was (for one, it permanently converted me to stouts, to try to find the next best one), I would gladly buy another (15) 64oz growlers to (never) share with my friends. 2) VALUE FOR MONEY: 9/10. The Kizakura Nigori Matcha Sake that I ordered ended up running me $8/bottle (before tax) - normally, this costs $6/bottle on wholesale, and considering that (1) I couldn't find this anywhere else (yes, I've looked), and (2) none of the restaurants or stores that I'd visited before this had a clue of where to source this, I was getting pretty frustrated. One thing that made me sad was the "mystery beer brown bag" ($5 one) - I was afraid of the more expensive one because I saw "peanut butter stout" as a possible option (allergy to peanuts, so that's no bueno), but I ended up getting a duplicate in the $5 bag, which was unfortunate (I was hoping it'd be no dupes, but it is what it is). 3) SERVICE: 10/10. Hats off to "Terry", who responded to my weird sake order request e-mail - "Kizakura Nigori Matcha Sake (300ml) - 12 pack)". The response came within a couple of days, and even though I was OK with it arriving *a week later*, lo and behold, the order I made was at the cashier counter area, and I got an e-mail saying it was ready! This single experience alone has restored my faith in humanity. Hooray! 4) CONSISTENCY: 9/10. Almost every time I've come in here, I've wanted to buy a bunch of stuff. Sometimes, the problem is that I can't find anyone to help me "in the immediate sense" (the stock here for any given item isn't plentiful, but the variety is great); sometimes, I just want a growler fill, but I can't find anyone (womp womp...) One thing's for certain: I can always depend on this place to be open during sane hours (10:00 am - 11:00 pm on Fri/Sat, 10:00 am - 10:00 pm on Mon-Thur, and 11am-7pm on Sunday). ”
