Super fantastic neighborhood shop! Highly underrated wine selection, I would say one of THE best in Milwaukee. Great customer service and old school feel. Love the decorations around the holidays!!

Cant stand it anymore. Ive been coming here for years. I was a regular customer. Never a smile. Never a hello. Never a thank you. Literally the least friendly liquor store Ive ever been. They stare you down and treat you like you killed their dog.

Great little local place for me to come. And i absolutely love the graffiti-style murals that are along the side of the building outside. They have super bright-colored paintings lining the brick exterior of the store, which are displaying advertisements of various brands/companies of liquor, and/or mainly beer that Avenue Wine & Liquor sells inside.

Staff seems to be irritated easily and unfriendly if you have any questions. Im going to start shopping at another store even though this is nearby because this one girl with brunette hair that checks people out doesnt have what it takes for a good customer service very unfriendly!!!! They must not need the business as far as Im concerned. I train people for a living to deal with customer service and this place would never pass the helpful friendliness aspect of what customers deserve.

A stellar selection of beer liquor, friendly staff, and they have grocery carts! Never seen so much beer being sold at one time since my time at my alma mature the University of Texas at Austin. Milwaukee is serious about there beer, and folks are super friends. Its reliable, friendly neighborhood establishments like this never let you forget that mom and pop shops are the driving forces in communities. Cheers.

Staff is great, always friendly & helpful. I know nothing about wine. But when I need a bottle to bring as a gift this is my go to place. I can always count on them for their help and advise picking out just the right bottle.

Review №21

Seems like a nice selection of Whiskey, and also found a couple nice Sweet Vermouth options. It was my first time here - unfortunately, NOBODY including the staff were masked. Thats just not ok for me - I know we all want this to be over with, but running around everywhere not wearing masks will only prolong it. Doesnt take a rocket-scientist. Ill shop elsewhere for now, sadly: was hoping that this would be my regular spot in my new neighborhood. Sigh.

Owner Mike didnt miss a step when he took over the Business from Dennis. Staff is very friendly, knowledgeable and know most of their customers by first name. Thats why I have been going there for the last 30 years.

Awesome neighborhood liquor store with amazing, old fashioned great service. Quick to help, or leave you to browse if you choose- offer to carry your items out to the car.

I have liquor stores closer to home but I shop here regularly. Its clean, friendly and the beer selection is very good. They almost always have my favorite, but if they are out I know I can find a beer Ill like. Im picky with the ice I buy and the ice sold here is great. Nice small cubes and it doesnt melt in two minutes.

Review №31

I am 49 yrs old and have been going there since I was 21. When it was run by the previous owner ( Dennis and Kathy) they always mede me feel welcome. The new owner,not so much. The employees, Ryan in particular is a great guy, always says hi and chats me up. That is the only reason I used to go there, but with a poor management style, I will spend my money elsewhere. I suggest you do the same.

Review №34

My uncle says the liquor they sell here is unfortunately over-priced. But as for myself, Ive just stopped in here a few times, and it was only to pick up a simple novelty item or two.... And those were priced lower than I have paid when I purchased the exact same item at one of the other stores or gas stations which are located nearby Avenue Wine & Liquor Inc. So I cant speak on the selection or the prices of their booze products, but the so-called novelty products that Ive bought from Avenue Wine & Liquor did surprise me with their competitive prices!

Review №63

I can definitely see what Jay is speaking of. Not a welcoming environment unless you fall under the category of white and trashy. While walking in, the employee walked by and bumped shoulders, without any apology. When asked if they have a product in stock, they practically refused to speak. When paying, the guy at the cash register took his time turning around. After a minute of waiting, I finally had to ask if he was going to work or not. OK prices, Poor service. Its convenient, but I wont be back. Businesses like this one is a reason why I fear for my fiancee to go out to.

All the way from San Jose, CA... Have not been recently but every time I get into town it’s straight to Avenue LQs !! Need to get a case of Huber OR Rhinelander tall necks! Still smell the walk in ...when I smell it out here it always reminds me of Avenue from the early 80s... we can only wish California had so many choices for good beer...Long live the Southside!!! Never forget the TURF skate park ... & George Webb’s !!!! Jeff m, SJ Ca

Cashier was looking at me thinking I was stealing something which is understandable since I was wearing a big coat. Showed her my pockets and some white knight douchebag standing behind her starts getting all defensive. Go pound sand bud
