On my first visit, I arrived at 3 pm, and there was a sign on the door saying they would return at 4:30 p.m. If I just needed liquor, I wouldn’t care about a remote little store randomly taking a 2-hour break in the early afternoon. But there are so few places to get SFMTA Lifeline pass stickers as is, and I drove out to the edge of SF for this. The store has no weekday hours posted outside; I looked forever. I called them and there’s no message or answering machine. So I tried another day at 9 a.m. per Unilocal’s hours. They actually opened at 9:25. I asked the lady who opened what the store’s hours are, and she said, «We open at 9, but I’m always 10 or 15 minutes late.» She charged me a $ 2 «transaction fee» for using my credit card, which sucks, but after looking at other reviews, I’m just grateful she took a card at all. Any little liquor store out in the boondocks can keep un-posted, irregular hours without anyone caring. But not getting my Lifeline pass sticker literally costs me money. Why does SFMTA trust this business to sell for them?

If I can give a NEGATIVE number rating I would ! This place doesn’t accept DEBIT/CREDIT. Like what century are you from lady !!! All I was trying to do was buy my MUNI lifeline pass. I am NEVER going to this place again. Cash only !!!

The Cashwrap Lady will not sell you a Lifeline pass via Credit Card. She claims she is charged 5% for these purchases. My question is, if you have the card swiper from SFMTA, then shouldnt you use it? I have never heard of a business denying a purchase outright, simply due to form of payment. Only cash sales eh…-_-. Cuz you make a whopping 50 cents from cash sales. Welp, this review will hopefully lose you more than you earn in the long run.

Seabee Liquors has the usual convenience items, beers, wines, sodas, microbrews, not a large selection but everything is priced. drink: «sanpellegrino: aranciata rossa(1.25) blood orange –16% fruit juice, 32 grams sugar, 140 calories no wonder it’s taste so good, kicking it off my lists. drips: –big bad walgreens opened across the street from them would support seabee over walgreens seabee pricey fair, walgreens are«fair» when«on sale».

Fair liquor store. The folks that work here are really friendly, but the selection is a little weak. You aren’t going to find Pliney the Elder, but you could buy some Bud or a 40 of King Cobra. My go to spot for lotto tickets? It has that going for it…

I am really disappointed that this is my local liquor store. It has a crappy selection of over priced beers, is not open very late and it(sometimes) has a not too welcoming employees.

Before Walgreens opened up, this was the spot! Every Sunday — got the newspaper here, and when I used to smoke — place for a pack. Now, it’s aged with the rest of the neighborhood. plus most of the people are there for the market or Walgreens. But you’ll always have a special place in my heart.

It’s the usual corner Liquor store. Except, they don’t have that much liquor. But its close, cheap and has Hot Cheetos Fries, what more can you ask for? Oh, and they have tons of scratchers, so thats a plus too if you want to waste some extra bucks.

I gave it an extra star for its convenient location which is just blocks from my house and right next to the«L — Taraval» Muni stop. I used to stop in here after school and buy candy, but nowadays, I stop in here and pick up liquor. They’ve got a fairly decent liquor & beer selection as well as the obligatory lotto tickets, if you’re in the mood. And if you’re «in the mood» of course they’ve got a small magazine selection as well.
