Probably the most helpful staff around, very nice people. Very good advice when your trying to find something special for a gift or to try something new yourself. Great local business to support.

Ive had a few bad experiences. They have a fee for using a card. You can only get one bottle of the rare or new bourbon, not even multiple if theyre different brands. Was told they didnt have something in stock when I called, but when I saw online they should, I called back and they did have it in stock. But I then missed out on it, because didnt get there in time. Very disappointing experiences.As to your reply: So you also lie to customers about having something in stock? And dont put out all the bottles on the shelf? You keep them in the back.

Had a short shopping experience there but pleasant. Was welcome when I stepped in the door, asked if I needed help and welcome to return. They have a diverse selection of drinks available

They have a large selection of wine and every kind of liquor. Bought my Cleveland Browns wine there! Go Browns!

Large selection, friendly helpful staff, clean stire

Five stars for having pineapple Patron on the Shelf

Always the best selections in spirits and vino. As an old restaurant wine master, I appreciate a local purveyor of good wines. Keep up the great work.

Great Selection of items, store is lot bigger than most state stores.

Just so everyone is aware. They dont tell you, but if you use a charge card, they will charge an extra 2% processing fee on your purchase.

This liqour store has the widest variety of booze to choose from locally. The staff is also on point - knowledgeable & informative. Definitely a step up from the neighborhood shops | no plexiglass or 5-foot counter spaces. 👍🏼🤘🏼

Knowledgeable & had what i wanted. A foreign rum from Guatemala

Always an amazing place to shop, friendly staff and fast check out

Helpful and happy atmosphere. Well stocked shelves.

This is the best place in the Portage Lakes to go browsing for super premium bottled beers.

Good selection. Friendly staff. One thing though, only friends of staff are able to get certain bourbons. We all know which bourbons!

Many many many selections! Just pick your poison! Very good prices too! Came out with a 5th of my favorite bourbon which I use mainly in my BBQ for under $18 including tax!

From out of town. Used to frequent the area. They have a decent selection. But, since I’m from out of town I was stocking up. The product I was stocking up on was priced differently on the shelf than what it was ringing up as. They would not honor the shelf price, so yea. That adds up when you’re buying in large quantities. My only complaint, really.

Very clean nice people and great selection of beverages. They have quite a few craft beers I havent seen anywhere else

Amazing selection on beer, wine, and liquor! Great Place to work, friendly staff and wonderful management! Highly recommend this place to everyone, especially my family and friends!

Super clean well stocked store in a convenient spot.

This is a great location for wine beer and spirits! Since it is a dedicated store the selection is extremely good. There is a particular beer that I like and cannot find, Lakes beverage ordered it in for me and was competitively priced. The folks here are always friendly.

Tuesday April 21 at 11:45 am I was harassed by Jeff the Manager. Let me explain. As usual Jeff was holding all allocated Bourbon in the back room instead of just putting it out so customers don’t have to ask him and get snapped at week after week. That I can put behind me but on this particular day I was accused of having Covid 19 and infecting him his employee’s and other customers. All this because I asked if any new Bourbon was available, and on this particular day he said in fact he did receive the Bourbon I was looking for and he refused to sell me the Alcohol. I have been a long time customer and spend plenty of money on Craft Beer, Expensive Scotch and Bourbon. I have already contacted the Better Business Bureau and wrote a more in depth report on what happened.

Very friendly staff and a nice selection. One star down because not a single drop of Crown Apple or Crown Peach in stock :(

Favorite hole in the wall gem with a large beer selection and knowledgeable bartenders. Cozy and fun- you might make a new best friend at the bar. Outside area is dog friendly.

Huge beverage store. Had what I was looking for at 3 other stores and not only had plenty of it but 4 different choices. Its the best beverage store in the South Akron/North Canton area. I travel far to frequent them, flag I found it. They were recommended by a few friends local to the area.

Great selection, friendly, helpful employees.

A solid selection of craft beer, imports, and liquor. I cant speak on the wine selection since I never buy the stuff. The store is easy to miss since its hard to see from South Main St. I literally drove by it for over a year during my commute before I noticed it

Great place and great people

Great selection of bourbon and scotch. They continue to expand their bourbon section. If beer is more your thing they have a large selection of mainstream beers and local beers.

Love all the people that work there theyre very nice super helpful. And well be back many many times for parties and personal use

Great selection, friendly and helpful staff. Go to liquor store in Green.

Nice selection of Bourbon and Rye!

Its not the best place in Akron but its one of them.

The most knowledgeable staff in the area when it comes to bourbon. First place I go when searching for a good bottle. Thanks guys. 🐎

Great selection! Excellent place to find just about any type of alcohol on the market...and lots of specials. Enjoy!

Always have what im looking for..

Great beer and state store. I have tried to order specialty items and management has always called me to keep me informed of what is going on with the order

Staff is always willing to help. Good prices and a very large selection! Definitely will be going back.

Fantastic place with very polite and friendly service. Jeff is knowledgeable about all of his products.

The staff here is always wonderful, friendly, and helpful.

Good liquor store. Clean with friendly, helpful employees. Craft beer is a little pricey compared to grocery stores. They have a pretty good selection though. They also have a pretty large selection of wine and liquor.

I was a little surprised at how good the selection is. Its a little out of the way and in an unassuming shopping center, but carries a wide array including some unique bitters and mixers.

Always friendly staff. Help when you need it.

Great craft beer selection. Friendly helpful staff. Manager ordered special rum for me and keeps it in stock! Cant find what youre looking for? Just ask and theyll try to get it for you...

Awesome great selection of beverages.Helpful staff

Good selection, knowledgeable and courteous staff, clean and well organized, and easy to get around inside.They have a much wider selection than the liquor store inside the Giant Eagle Market District in Green (which has a decent selection itself).The Ohio liquor control laws limit what is available to individual stores.Within these limitations, Lakes Beverage seems to do a great job of stocking a diverse selection of liquors from inexpensive through interesting mid-range offerings and more expensive, unusual, and harder to find bottles.

Always have things you need for the playoffs. ^_^

Every time I come in there at never fails they are the most helpful staff always friendly with a smile and somehow bring one out of myself as well even if Im having a bad day could it be the liquor that Im going to purchase or the staff? ;-) LOL just kidding stop is amazing there and the selection is amazing as well keep it up :-)

Don’t bother shopping here. They advertise they have something and then when you drive 25 miles they say it’s reserved for certain vendors. There is some shady stuff going on here

Everyone there is so friendly and helpful!

Great place to get a drink when youre thirsty

Best beverage store in Ohio very helpful and classy . Great place !

What is your poison? They have to have it! From hard liquor to beer and wine their selection has been great. They also carry the staples you may need to make many drinks such as supplies, lemonds, limes etc. They offer beer growler fills too. Parking is plentiful but the lot needs attention (not the fault of the business). Easy access to the building and to the stock inside (nice size asiles). Staff is always friendly and helpful too. Worth the trip from Canton in my opinion!

Big beautiful store with anything youd ever need to get your buzz on. :)

The people there are top.shelf. I was looking for a limited product and they provided it and some new information. First time there. Drove from Canton. Thank you guys!

Great selection, friendly staff, prompt service. Look for treasures on their clearance wine table!

Good selection. Posted prices were not honored. Charged me additional 12$ for a bottle! said there was nothing they could do about it. False advertising. Spent 130$.

Friendly helpful staff with fair prices

Great variety and very friendly staff

Love this place they have it all from huge wine sections to high end whiskey and bourbon

Huge selection of everything that i needed for my christmas party. Well lit and clean. The counter help was very friendly and courteous.

They have such a great variety of everything

Its Toys R Us for adults! This is a fairly large store with a huge selection to satisfy pretty much anybodys craving for alcohol. Beer, wine, liquor... they all have a wide selection to choose from here. Im a Jack Daniels fan and have seen some rare items here that I couldnt find anywhere else outside of Tennessee.

Nice setup with lots of choices. Staff is always helpful and friendly

Friendly, polite and helpful.

Great selection, helpful staff, thanks so much!!

The place to go to talk to some cool dudes and get great tasting advice!

Fantastic selection and prices. Best of all the staff are very attentive.

Make a wesite!!! They dont cost that much. It is 2018 for another 2 months. There are cell phones more powerful than computers of 10 years ago and Robots on Mars. Catch up mane! Great selection of beer both mainstream and microbrew. Spirit selection is better than most other places.

Absolutely the best beverage store Ive been to in quite some time. Selection on beers and alcohol is superior.

Great selection and friendly help! Starr never fails to impress.

Good selection and they will look for special bottles if you ask them to. Glad this place is near me.
