Next Door Spirit Shoppe

Worst liquor store I've ever stepped into. The staff here is unknowledgeable of their own products. The shelves are poorly stocked, staff here is not frurhtkt at all and the selection is by far the worst. There are much better things in walking distance than this place.

I live super close to this place, so convenience is my main reason for stopping here, but I do like the old dude that works here and his friends (patrons, I dont know, the few times I've been so far, they seem to shoot the sh*t with each other until someone comes up front and then they both talk to me/my friends and me. They always are nice and have excellent life hacks, like how to open bottles of wine without a corkscrew or bottle opener. I didn't need to use that knowledge yet tho, since the night he told me I bought boxed wine. I will try to open a bottle with no bottle opener sometime in the future, but maybe after looking it up on wikihow too or something.The prices are about equal with similar establishments (so a little pricier than a Rite-Aid or grocery store, but ab the same as any small, independent liquor store in the area). There's a decent selection if you're not super picky (I'm really not with booze except beer) and you can get in and out quick. If you live near me, it also happens to be super close, probably the closest liquor store to my place really. The one thing I hate about this place is how to get to it, because you have to turn like you are going to go to the Dunkin' Donuts drive-thru, but pass it. I always feel like someone's going to hit me, bc it's such a weird place to turn to get there. Though there is most def the possibility there's an easier way to get to its parking lot, I haven't found (or actually looked) for it yet tho. Okay selection and prices. Really cool workers and life hacks given even when you dont ask for them. Super close to my condo. Weird, kinda scary turn to get in. So, prob should be 3.5 stars really, but I know I'll choose this place again the next time I just quickly want to grab booze for something or seek words of wisdom, so I'll bump it up to 4. Because convenience is key sometimes. Like most of them even.

The selection isn't the best. Mostly cheap whiskey.With that said, the hours are great. Besides gas stations, no liquor store near me stays open as late.I buy a lot of my "house whiskey" (aka cheap ones) from here. If I'm up late and off work, this is my go to for 22oz Miller Lite. While in a somewhat "rough area of town" the staff is very friendly and helpful.

Absolutely love this place ! Prices aren't the best but the staff is super friendly and patient as well as the regulars that hang there. Hours are hard to beat!
