The place to come in an truly feel welcoming like family!!!! * I believe Im bad with names but, Tony & Matt were a great help. They definitely gave great advice for liquor or beer & became very helpful. If you can at least stop in an say hi definitely not disappointing.

Both of the employees that I encountered were kind, welcoming, and mindful of COVID precautions when I was there in Dec 2020. The prices were reasonable and they had a variety of options!

The Owner Matt remembers every customer by name, once you introduce yourself. Cold beverage selection is somewhat limited compared to other nearby locations, but they always have what I need. Also, this store maintains its suburban feel, whereas others in the area can be really urban and tough.

I used to love this liquor store when I lived in the area. Everyone was so friendly. I got a T-shirt one of the first times I went there and then noticed how many people had them around the area as I was out and about. It always strikes up a good conversation . Everyone loves East Lake Liquor!

I stopped by to pick up some tonic water on June 23, 2020 (during the time of COVID) and was absolutely shocked to see two employees at the register not wearing face masks. Additionally, half the customers in the store while I was there werent wearing face masks. I felt like I was in Wisconsin *shudder*, except the price I paid on the unmarked tiny 6-pack of tonic of roughly $6 made me feel like I was in NYC. I will not go back to this store, and am not sure how it is currently legal for them to not practice physical distancing or allow employees to not wear masks.

I read that East Lake Liquor Store suffered damage and loss while sadness swept over our city in May/June 2020. You were innocent. May your business be stronger and more profitable than ever.

Best lil neighborhood liquor store there ever was !!! It’s not where you go to to find the crazy speciality beers, but they have what you need when you need it. Be sure to ask about buying a cool shirt. They always change the colors which is really fun

Good non-refrigerated, beer selection, including single bottles. Single bottles a bit pricey at $2 each. 10% discount on make- your-own-6-pack eases this somewhat but still amounts to a premium price.

Review №29

Theres a shipping cart in the front of the store filled with discontinued bottles of wine. 🍷 wow. I mean, its a grab bag of possibilities. Ive had a well aged bottle for the price of a young whippersnapper. Its a good place to teach yourself what you like. Theres also strawberry pie peach googah you need to put on ice on a pontoon for lake Minnetonka. It really depends on what theyre trying to ditch.

My favorite liquor store! Staff is always friendly, never dull. I refuse to take my business to any other liquor store. Prices are fair. They have a good warm and cold beer selection. I have never been unstatisfied while shopping here! I have been going here for as long as I can remember and that will not change. The owner is a very kind man and deserves a high five for his well-ran liquor store!
