Twin Liquors

Great employees and selection! Only flaw is they did not carry Raki — Turkish liquor we were looking for. Another HUGE flaw is they don’t sell ice! They are located right next to an HEB so there’s a solution but it’s still inconvenient. Parking is great since they are located in a plaza.

«You tell me about how much you’d like to spend, and I’ll give you a couple suggestions of (whatever we are standing in front of at the time) in that price range.» — Every Twin Liquors employee
When we just need to replenish the «library» of old standards in the liquor cabinet (Yeah, yeah, yeah… Malibu… Don’t judge.), we’ll usually hit the shop at the front of the Costco. But the Costco selection is a bit limited if you’re looking, for example, at the various brands/​flavors of vodka.
When we are browsing, and will welcome the advice from folks smarter than us, we are usually quite pleased with the service we get from our local neighborhood Twin Liqours. Sure, everyone can see through the «Can we put what you are holding at the front for you?» tactic, which is mostly there to keep you from putting something already in hand back down and not purchasing it, while leaving your hands free to pick something else up as well (or maybe I’m just too cynical).
And keep your eye out a couple times a year for the «Dollar Sale» (just happened the Thur-​Sat before Labor Day, and will probably happen again during «the holidays») for some really great deals (in theory, their cost plus one dollar).
3.95 stars, Twin Liquors.

Great service! Truly personalized. The person working asked what the purchases were going to be used for, and recommended alternatives that would be better and cost less. This has happened every time I’ve been in the store, whether I’m buying or just bringing friends in who buy. Has also taken the time to pour samples for us when we’re deciding between brands. Have seen the store employees drop everything and go out of their way to help other customers as well. Good selection, easy to find what you’re looking for and truly amazing customer service. It’s easy to see why they have so many repeat customers (the cashier knew 5 of the 8 people who checked out while I was there by name and seemed to remember past purchases).

Great selection with friendly staff. The organized layout makes it easy to find whatever you’re looking for. Plus they have the best rum in the world for the price… or so I’m told. It’s called Don Q. Just be sure to leave a bottle for me…;)

Great service here! the manager here was very nice and we were able to talk beer. He has even ordered me stuff; on special orders and e-​mails me when they come in!
Now that’s customer service folks!
if you buy by the case they’ll even give you a 10% discount!
great area if you’re up near Parmer and i-​35; plenty of parking and can get expert advice from the folks there.

Once again these lovely folks have saved me from a drinking conundrum. Most recently they recommended a wine to bring to a varietal party on NYE. The idea of the party is this: Each couple brings 2 of the same varietal and each couple is responsible for their own type. Ours was Sauvignon Blanc. So, my husband wanders in to TL and asks for a big recommendation. They recommended Leidersburg Sauvignon Blanc. At a whopping $ 12.99 a bottle, we weren’t sure what to expect — but these folks have not let us down — ever! So… We introduced the bottles to about 18 wine snobs at the party and end up being the heroes of the evening. Of course, it’s my husband who is the true hero. All evening, people were approaching him with a whisper, «Don’t tell anyone but I liked your bottle the best!» Good, because it didn’t break the bank like yours!

Twin Liquors is the closest liquor store to my apartment and I’m very thankful for that. Their selection and customer service has me coming back time and time again. They’re usually pretty good about stocking a lot of local texas companies (ie Titos and Dripping Springs Vodka) at a dollar or 2 less than their competitors. The layout of the place as well as the atmosphere is a far cry from the «wow, we are in a liquor store that could be robbed at any moment» feel. The employees at this location do not shy away from conversation and have been very helpful in making suggestions towards your purchase without trying to upsell you to a premium brand.
