Reed’s Liquor Store

My girlfriend and I (ages 24 and 25) were visiting from Atlanta and went into Reeds to pick up a few liquors, mixes and champagne. At the counter, my girlfriend handed over her Georgia issued ID which the woman behind the counter tried scanning. She then handed it back, claiming it was «not valid» as if it was fake, then continued on to say that we were not allowed to buy anything, all the while, in front of a line of other customers behind us.
We were very confused by this because they were definitely our real, VALID, state issued driver’s licenses… She then refused to allow our other friend (age 23) with a «valid» New York ID to buy our items for us and told us we needed to leave as if we were underaged children making a scene. She was not only rude and unhelpful in the situation but also made us leave feeling completely patronized when simply being polite about turning us away would have perfectly sufficed.
We went to Aurora Liquor afterward who were much friendlier and accommodating to paying customers.
We visit family frequently in East Aurora but will never buy from Reeds again, nor will family.

Reed’s Wines and Liquors has been locally owned for nearly 70 years… that kind of longevity doesn’t come out of nowhere. This store is the place to go in East Aurora for all your wine and liquor needs.
Conveniently located at the traffic circle at the went end of Main Street, there is ample parking at the store or in the adjacent village parking lot behind the building. They have a stable selection of everyone’s favorites, and a rotating selection of new and exciting choices. Their liquor selection is amazing, and they are very helpful with party planning and other large purchases.
As a resident of East Aurora I try to support other local wine businesses, too, but when I’m shopping with a purpose and know what I want, Reed’s is the place I go.
