"This is a pretty decent liquor store. They have a great selection of beer and wine, in addition to liquor as well. They have sales every so often that can't be beat. I visit a variety of liquor stores while on the hunt for the best deal and this place has some sale items that even beat Costco's pricing. Plus the staff here has always been friendly and helpful. Make sure to check the website for their current flyer advertising the specials."
"Very nice updated building for the Milaca area. Milaca Liquor has a wide variety of micro brews and has a mix and match six pack special, that allows you to try different brews.Don't worry they are fully stocked with your typical best sellers of beer, wine and hard alcohol and of course all the mixes that go with them. They have the best selection and stock in the area, so when your ready to get your party on stop in here and stock up."

"Love this place! Great wine selection and featured wine. Mystery beer packs are always fun! And an excellent wine tasting on Saturdays with Larry who is so nice and knowledgeable about wine."
"Modern liquor store that is very clean and organized. Workers are friendly and they have tastings weekly. A great selections of liquors to choose from in a relatively big store. Great spot to get your liquor"
"This has got to be one of the best experiences in a liquor store ever! I was in town visiting for my sisters graduation party and you can't have a party without liquor so this was our chosen store.Location was very convenient and easy to get to besides the dirt road that we had to take to get here. Your route may vary depending where you are coming from.It's a great store, TRUST me."
"I am by no means anything close to a sommelier, but am somewhat of a self-proclaimed beer fanatic, so this review is more so focused on the latter half of this place's namesake.First off, this isn't the place to look for a case of, well, any type of beer. This is, however, the place to pick up a sixer of craft beer, or better yet a mix of whatever craft beer your heart (and liver) desires. They have hundreds of bottles for the picking, organized by style, and they give you a 15% discount on each mixer sixer you concoct.The selection is broad and quite impressive (follow them on Facetwitterbook to find out when they get new deliveries and limited releases). For the indecisive, or less accustomed to craft beer, soliciting recommendations from the staff is recommended, as they are much beer-nerdier than the author of this review.Cheers."
"At Centennial Liquor you'll find a decent variety of your beer, wine, and liquor needs. The best thing about this store is that they have a cold beer room, where you can find a nice selection of beer cold and ready to be consumed. The prices aren't the lowest in the area, but the location next to Coborn's is very convenient."
"Adorable spot for a fancy night out. Not a ton of seating, but my friend and I arrived around 5 and had no issue snagging a spot. We shared a charcuterie board and wine. Both were so good, but we saw some plates of sandwiches and salads and...I will definitely want to come back to try those because they looked really good!!!! Definitely on the pricey side but worth it for a fun outing. The staff were so so so friendly, some of the best service I've experienced in MPLS!!"
"Went here to purchase a bottle of wine as a Christmas gift. I know absolutely nothing about wine, so I was very happy when an employee approached me and asked me if I needed help with anything within a couple minutes of me walking in the door. I explained what I needed, and he showed me a few options that would work well. Very helpful guy!There are a ton of options in the store. I'm pretty sure you can find almost any type of alcohol you would want! Prices are great.What I also love is that this store is locally owned and operated! I love to support small businesses!Overall great store. Would definitely shop here again!"
"this is the kind of liquor store you go to for these reasons:1. you live in walking distance2. you want most your liquor in plastic bottles3. you want your beer extremely cheap. (you want cheap beer. get it?)4. you're wandering the neighborhood drunk already and need a refill.5. you l like carpet6. uhhhhhhh?"
"I've passed this bar for years and we finally went on a Friday night for the meat raffle. I love a meat raffle. This one was ok pretty busy and very strict one per person rule. But good stuff from mackenthuns! It's a dive bar but fast good service and cheap drinks so it's worth a dive bar stop! Also their pizza is highly recommended!!"
"The ambience was great! Great live music on the patio. We shared poke nachos and wow! This was a special was fantastic! We did have the Brussel sprouts and I wouldn't get them again, they were sadly over done but I ate them. He had a chicken sandwich and loved it. Our waiter Fransico was extremely pleasant and prompt. We will be back!"

Service has always been great. I would like to see some more local stuff. I don't know about wine, but it seems they miss the mark with the many possible breweries in the twin cities as well as a growing number of local distilleries that are hard to find there.I know there are other stores, and the whole area is grossly under representing the local products. For some reason, it feels to me that Robbinsdale is the best suited to get into the market of local products.I'll update on the beer selection, which has been much better this week (must have received a shipment). Not quite what I think it could be, but it is definitely better.

Great spot. Well curated collection, always have the finest MN and WI beer selection possible including occasional Barrel Theory crowlers, great Modist beers, or Humble Forager's Elevated Perspective. They also have Oliphant crowlers, a great small brewery just 30 min away in WI. When I moved here I was so happy to find a small beer store with great knowledge. Additionally, I buy some wine there and they are always respectful of my price point request when I ask for recommendations esp when I ask for something off their under $10 value wall :) And finally, with COVID 19 concerns, they've adapted with curbside pickup. I have not gone into a store unless there is absolutely no other option since March, so I have relied on businesses leaning in to curbside. You do have to call them and give the credit card info over the phone (maybe in the future they can do an online system?!) but I have never had a security issue with that. Also when I call them for my curbside order, I am pretty familiar with what they have in store but they are still helpful when I want to get recs over the phone or know what is new from the local breweries. For craft beer, the prices are exactly what they should be - no bud light here, folks! Oh.. and if you are very nice you can als for a dog biscuit for your pup (or have the pup ask politely!).

My wife and I were out on our weekly new restaurant Saturday lunch trek. We saw that Picnic opened recently and it was on our list.It was a perfect day in Edina and there was construction in front of the establishment, so we had a two block walk. I feel bad that they have completely cut off the street from traffic, but it was still pretty full at noon.It is a pretty small place, so my wife and I sat at the bar. I ordered a Size 7 IPA from Steel Toe, a place about a couple miles from here that makes great beer.We ordered an order of deviled eggs and the beef sandwich.Bartender was great at refreshing our waters and the food came out quick.The deviled eggs were perfect, really smooth texture and not bad for the $7.50 price tag.The beef sandwich had a ton of coleslaw on top with what seemed like fresh baked bread. The bread was exemplary and the beef had the wonderful taste of seeping in red wine. It was super tender and the red wine taste was just perfect. Highly recommended.Great lunch, I ordered a second IPA and it was $50 after tip. Try it out.

"Superb wine options and a super friendly staff. They have free wine tastings every Friday! Their craft/micro beer selection is good, too, with good local and regional options that are sometimes hard to find. Can't go wrong!!"
"Sometimes I want to go across the street and buy alcohol from this store just because the people running it are so awesome and it gives me an excuse to visit with them.The first time I ventured across Snelling was to pick up some flavored vodka for the Halloween Jell-O shots that I made. The (I think) manager was so helpful. He spend probably half an hour talking to me about the different kinds of vodkas and what they go the best with. He suggested different mixtures that I could try to achieve the perfect Jell-O shot.The second time I graced their doorway was to pick up a bottle of Grey Goose for my birthday. Their largest bottle of Grey Goose was reasonably priced and has lasted me a very long time. The manager also showed me the specials they were having on wine and let me sample them. I believe they also do wine tasting on Wednesday.On Wednesday I had to pick up some alcohol for my friend's party. The manager and a woman (I think his wife) were running the store. The manager was a little busy, but the woman was also helpful. She rang me up quickly and I got to play with their new shitzu puppy that was chilling out on the counter."
"You usually don't find knowledgeable help here. It's basically a big warehouse for cheap beer, wine and spirits. You go in, buy, and go out. But I like the fact that Marv, the owner, hangs around there often, and he's a Maplewood City Councilman. And on this visit, he spotted me puzzling over the bourbon. He came up and offered some advice. Thanks, Marv!"
"We came because we heard that they had good food and bloodies- and holy cow do they ever! The special was the eggs Benedict and omg it was a huge portion and so delicious. . . And that is the one brunch item I get every where we go so I've had a few to compare! Apparently they switch the special from eggs Benedict to biscuits and gravy every other weekend. My husband had the McJudy - basically a ginormous McMuffin with a pile of thick bacon on it - and a pancake. Just one because it's the size of a very large plate! So good, so full, and our bill was $30!!"
"Awesome breakfast!Highly recommend the corned beef hash and the country fried steak."
"Parking is easy because there's a little ramp right across the street. The place was a little hard to find- Google Maps takes you to Grocer's Table. It's actually around the corner past that and NOT where the map says it is. The wooden symbol that marks the restaurant is too discreet so took me a few minutes to hunt down.The ambiance is very cute- vintage with a little feminine touch and date night feel. Our service was great! Three of us ordered our own 'bite' (I had two deviled eggs which had a great pack of flavor), shared the salmon tartare (good flavor and touch of spice from what I think was the Dijon Mayo), entree (I had the Crab Spaghetti alla chittara which was amazing!! Another friend got the agnolotti which had a perfected pasta shell and sauce, another got the trout which was orange like salmon but just a little less fishy but cooked tender with greens) and we shared sides (fries had a great crisp with a bearnaise aioli, beets were flavorful) and all shared the toffee cake with salted caramel buttermilk ice cream. I'm really surprised this place wasn't closer to five stars. I'd go back again tomorrow and try another few things on the menu (in addition to getting the crab spaghetti again)!!"
"My sister in Madison said she wanted to eat here when she visits nexts. My sister sent me pictures of their burger that had me drooling. Naturally, as a younger brother, I had to check it out first. There was a long list of items on the menu, which is refreshing. There's a chicken sandwich, nachos, and pretzel sticks that we will be back for, but we needed more mouths for those dishes. We tried the burger and fries, which are excellent - some of the best fries I've had in awhile. They cooked them extra long. The chips paired with our salsa were "meh". The square curds will make you smile from ear to ear. Everything came out hot which was also a win for us. The staff were friendly and this place has another side to the bar for pickleball. This is more of a self serve bar and restaurant. You will order on your phone and pick up your own order when it's ready. The wall of beers is the same as Union32 in Eagan."
"We've popped in here a couple of times now while visiting family in MPLS. This last time we came for 2 bottles and left with 7 or 8? They carry an eclectic and geeky selection. Not sure who does their curation but we weren't exactly looking for local (California) producers but once we realized they stocked some absurd and micro-producers we looked deeper. Producers such as Broc in Berkeley, Ashes & Diamonds in Napa, and Liocco in Healdsburg. Just stuff I never expected to see outside of the Bay Area. There was an older guy who dealt with our indecisiveness and senseless path around the shop and like any great advisor, found solutions where there was none apparent. They did not have the heavy stuff, at least I did not see, such as Screaming Eagle, Opus One (I did see a bottle of Overture), Silver Oak, etc but that stuff is plentiful elsewhere. They do stock highly comparable and arguable funner bottles such as Quintessa, and I forgot what else...Fun shop. Watch your step out front."
"This place is FANTASTIC!A little liquor store located @ the Grande Depot next to Accentric in St. Cloud.We visited on a Wednesday evening & were suprised to find that Cork & Cask features complimentary wine tastings daily during store hours. How nice!The selection of beer & wine included many options we had not experienced including chocolate espresso wine, Climber wine (wine in a pouch w/ a caribeener)a huge variety of local beer & distinctive imports. There were also various wine & beer gifts spread throughout the store. The wine tasting, coupled with meat & cheese samples from the neighboring Accentric Home Store & Deli, it was a nice way to start the evening & to experience all the Cork & Cask had to offer.What a great place! A must-visit if you are in the area."
"Love this place! The owners will educate you about wine. I have learned what kind of wine I like to drink. The wine tastings are fun in a comfortable environment. They have delicious wines for every budget!"
"Best place in Rochester for price and selection. I buy Wine, Beer and Whiskey They have a very nice Wine selection and a whole wall of import and craft beer and I have found a great selection of Bourbon and Scotch.It's a one stop shop for me!!"
"Great liquor store in general. Haskell's specialized in wine mostly but Haskell has a good selection of wine and spirits too. Price wise it a more than total wine but they random products on sale. The store is very organized and clean. It a shop worth checking out."
"Great burgers! Good beer ! Adrian and Brittany make this place even better!Great local hang out!!"
"F yeah I feel very compelled to write a review of a liquor store! I am very grateful for it for SO many reasons, but a new one is for the great customer service.When a few friends came to town, I wanted to gift them with a sampling of our local beer. So I called around to several local liquor stores, looking for ones that offered BYO six packs. Most said no, until I spoke with a woman at Central Spirits. She was friendly and helpful on the phone, and then even more so in person. She directed me to where I could build my own six pack of local beers from a designated fridge. She even let me break open a 4 pack of Surly that wasn't in the fridge, just to add a few to my pack. Each can was priced fairly and I ended up paying under $15 for a custom variety of 6 local beers. It's not a huge store and I didn't browse the thing, so I can't speak too much to their variety. There were a few local breweries that I didn't see represented there, though, and there were only 2 or 3 types of Surly brews. Regardless, I'll definitely be back and I hope I win the giveaway I entered!"
"This is the best place to eat in a 10 mile radius. HaHa the only place to eat within 10 miles. No kidding this place has great burger's. I highly recommend the honyuker with onion rings."
"This is a very nice size liquor store with what seemed like a large variety of beer wines and spirits. My review is a little skewed because I went for the sole purpose of purchasing wine in a can. I've found that it's not sold at a lot of places, good ones that is. But I was happy at what I stumbled upon at Hums. There's a small fridge in the very front of the store with boxed canned and bottled wines. I couldn't decide on one so I grabbed like 7 different ones. Once I got to the register, the woman who checked me out was so kind and helpful in explaining the different types of wines and even recommended one for me to try next time. She even showed me where to find it. I was pleasantly surprised by her efforts. It's so nice going into a store and having someone show you or explain the lay of the land. Very much appreciated. My only dislike is the location. It's right next door to the red dragon and a-holes are usually loitering outside or nearby."
"Your basic Mark I/Mod 0 liquor store. All the usual suspects at rather reasonable prices. Half-decent selection of craft beers. Staff are very friendly. It's no Thomas Liquor or Solo Vino, but if you're in the area and need something basic, here you go."
"Tiktok made me do it and I am so glad I did!On first drive, it looks like an old gas station minus the pumps. Wall full of fridges are all that's standing between you and all the delicious Minnesota brews Ombibulouse has to offer. The staff is knowledgeable and so kind. With COVID, they do have capacity limits and require a mask. You can build your own 6-packs at your own leisure. They also carry Minnesota wines/sodas/craft liquors. All at great prices! Beers rang from $3/can to $14/pack which varies by brewery/size/quantity.Absolutely stop here! And if they still have it, get the coconut macaroon Cream Ale from Indeed!"
"Looking for craft beer? & a whole lot of it? How about hard to find imports? Stop your search! Heritage has it all!The other yelpers have it right, this place is crazy awesome. Each time I make a stop @ Heritage, I am impressed & wowed with their amazing selections & superior customer service & knowledge. Beer tastings are held twice a month or so... a great way to showcase their business as they have SO many beers that other stores just don't carry. I don't think I will ever buy beer anywhere else. A hidden gem."
"We were doing a wedding photo shoot and stopped into Keenan's for a few fancy dive bar photos. They are right across the street from CSPS event venue. The bar is super clean and actually surprisingly well lit for a bar. The have a pool table, lots of seating as well as a lounge area. The staff was super welcoming and the customers were friendly as well. They offered us a free celebratory shot for our marriage. We came back for some food which was delicious. They have some great appetizer options including the Italian dunkers which were phenomenal. Way better than the ones I remember from middle school. They also have lots of burger options, and a fried chicken sandwich. Their French fries were amazing - battered and crispy! Yum yum! We will be coming back to try the wings."
"Just like another reviewer said, Toasted is a North End gem! It's not a huge store but it's got all your basics and a nice smaller selection of craft beer, which includes a small build your own area. They are open to recommendations so if you don't see what you're looking for, write it down at the counter! The husband and wife duo who run the place are impossibly nice and funny; it's always a treat to see them. They're genuinely kind people and take pride in their store."
"It's a liquor store. Being new to Minnesota, the concept of only being able to get your booze at one is still new to me. I'm used to picking up alcohol at Target or the grocery store. That being said, I was impressed by the wine selection. Maybe that's because I had low expectations. It seems to a decent selection of beers too. The service is friendly and the location is convenient. I just wish they were open later and on Sundays, but that's not the store's fault."
