I refused to return here until friends kept telling me that there are new owners who are really nice. I finally stopped in this week since they were one of the few places open on Christmas and I was surprised by the changes. The store is much more inviting now, looks way cleaner and the couple who owns it definitely lived up to their reputation. My family asked me to pick up wine on my way but I wasn’t sure which ones to get. Zee was very knowledgeable and gave me great recommendations. His fiancé even put them in cute fabric bags at no charge to make them more festive for me. My family loved them. I will definitely be returning now. I can’t wait to see how it turns out after the remodel said they are planning.

Not the cheapest, but pretty darn convenient. It’s more than a liquor store, too, with the usual corner store/gas station fare(but without the gas).

This is a decent corner shop liquor store – the type that can be found in every city in America. But this is Marin, guys. I pinch pennies to live here so at least give me access to fancy tobacco products and over-priced beer. If I can get the same stuff here as I could in, say, Stockton, why do I bother? Never mind the safe streets, cleanliness, beauty, charm and great weather. I want better liquor stores.

These guys are always courteous and helpful, and their alcohol is reasonably priced. It’s on my way to work, making it super easy to pick up a 40 of Country Club on the way.

Great local, liquor store! Its nice that we live within a block of the place– but I cannot deny they have a great selection of beverages of all kinds: water, beer, soda, tea, liquor, and did i mention THEYHAVECIDER? Yeah, i kind of dig it. The prices are reasonable too! It appears to be a family owned business, as there is always 2 people there hanging out running the register and the lottery ticket area. Everyone there is super nice, and I have never got a warm welcome when going in. Great people! Finally, They do have some other house hold items for when you run out of TP– and they have snacks of all kinds… but nothing hard core like a 7 – 11, where you can straight up go grocery shopping.
