G & R Liquor Mart

Walked into this store looking for a cold 6 pack to go with dinner. Went into their back freezer and they wanted $ 16 for 6 domestic beers. Upon leaving empty handed I was eyed like I was the thief on the way out.

I pop into this store whenever I’m bringing I find myself on 109 and wanting to bring a few beverages home for a relaxing evening. They are a smaller shop with lots of product, and there’s a really friendly comfortable feel about this liquor store; it almost feels like someone’s living room. No wonder, because there’s always one or another of the owners or their family members sitting at the cash counter watching a small television and catching up on their soaps. It seems not much has changed on Y&R for 20 years, so why are so many people still watching?!
G&R has a good selection of import beers, two of my favourites being Fruli and Innis & Gunn. The store is located about 5 minutes or less from the Victoria Golf Club and so it tries to stock stuff that suits the more discriminating pallet.
