Located in the Costco shopping center. After fighting the hoards in Costco, Girlfriend, heads off to the pet store, I go here. Works for me and BTW, I don’t know of any place that takes a credit card for lottery tickets. .. think that one through. .. okay, just ask about what you’re looking for and they’ll get it for you. Very nice people, so even if it’s a bit more on some items, I shop here if I’m in the area. And buy lottery tickets, if I have some extra cash on me. Also, to the Unilocaler, who gave them one star for not selling almond soy milk. .. it’s a FREAKIN’ LIQUOR&TOBACCO store. Enough said, stop in here just to support, some nice folks, and help a mom and pop shop.

Well, this place is quite tiny, so some of you may missed it if you don’t look carefully. The place is located right by In-n-Out and next to Costco! Hope that will help you to find the store. Any who, as many has already mentioned, this story is super tiny and you can probably finish looking at all products by once glance. They mainly sell alcohol and tobacco, if you cannot tell by their sign: p. The workers there are pretty nice, not sure if they are the owner or not(Older gentlemen and woman). They also sell lottery tickets! But make sure you bring your cash and/or Debit card for the purchase, otherwise, they won’t take it! You know the dealio. If you want to purchase the lottery tickets, they both stated that they have jack-pot winners from before, but I am not sure if the truth. But why would they lie anyway? I believed both female and male workers at the store are both Vietnamese and they do not speak fluent English, so it may be a bit hard to communicate with them. But please don’t get me wrong, both of them are super nice and both try their best to assist you in many ways. If you need help, ask them and they will be there right away! Everything in the store are reasonably priced as other stated as well. They didn’t raised their price ridiculously because they are right by the entrance and exist of high-way 101. But I guess, Costco is right by, the cost of their supplies may be lower: p? Overall, smaller shop, nice people, goods are nicely priced. Check it out if you want to!

TINY store, small aisles, decent prices, good selection! Friendly staff, open 7 days. A couple of lottery millionaires have been made there. Overall a good store that I’ll use if I’m heading that direction.

Want to make a purchase and feel like a criminal for actually buying something? This stores management has terrible customer service and spent the majority of my interaction with them, examining my credit card, seeming doubtful it would go through. Of course it did but I heard an audible sigh at the disappointment. Ironically they also gave me a hard time for not purchasing more. Sorry, but their selection isn’t that great on the liquor side. I’m giving them two stars because they have an awesome energy drink selection.

Liquor & Tobacco is a very small store, lots of merchandise crammed neatly on racks. aisles very narrow. accidents, bumping into racks can easily happen. few microbrews, some priced, some not. buys:“firestone union jack ipa” 4.69, 7.5% –strong stuff, bitterness aplenty, hoppy no doubt –not a standard smooth ipa, not smooth at all. drips: –friendly checkout, –not much brews to choose from, pricey selection 2.5 stars

I live right across the street from this place and everyone who works there is very nice and always gives a good welcome to my baby and I. :) Very good place to buy lottery tickets as they have a lot of winners.

It’s kind of your average liquor store, but a really really small one. Selection is low and the prices are pretty high– extremely high for some things! The guy who works there is really nice though!

Millionaire Made Here sign. Red flashing neon ‘Cigar’ sign. Premium cigars here sign. What a crap store! You’d think that with the cut from the lotto they could do a better job of maintaining this rinky dink store. All aisle of this small store were packed with cases and cases of booze. And on top of that they didn’t have any silk soy protein milk in the cooler. I’ve been to some crappy liquor stores, you know if you’ve read my reviews, but his one by far takes the cake.

We stopped off here to pick up some ice after going to Costco for beer and food before heading to Shoreline… in retrospect, we probably should have gone here in the first place. Not that it was any cheaper, but it would have been a much quicker trip. The guy inside was also very friendly!

Heading over to Shoreline Amphitheatre, stop here and load up on liquor. This was where I tried my first Four Loco’s. aghhh.

On my never ending quest to find strange soda beverages, I had to walk into this place to find some. Unfortunately the selection is a bit lacking in that department though they do have this intriguing wine display on the left side before the coolers. They do however carry some interesting green tea choices which I would never think a place like this would carry as it’s usually more prevalent to a Whole Foods. Who knew?
