Overall rating: 2 stars such an unfriendly cashierFood: mainly alcohol!Texture: smooth glass bottles as well as some plastic onesPricing: ranges from $8 for beer or a nip all the way to the goof stuff which will cost a lot $$$ I think the most expensive thing I've bought from here was a bottle of red wine for $50Ambiance: alcohol everywhere with silly duck pun shirts hanging from the ceiling with phrases like "duck off" hahaSeating & Parking: no seating or parkingService: very very cold and rude, I've met puddles that were deeper than this man's ability to converse Music: noneBathrooms: employees onlyFinal comments: A decent alcohol store if you're in a pinch but there are a couple near by with much better service and prices in my opinionThey do have unique alcohol though like these test tube shots

Great whiskey museum with a great selection of bourbon for viewing. Sadly, it's priced above even the secondary market prices if you actually were hoping to buy anything from the store. Most standard bottles on the shelf were higher priced as well. There are other stores in the nearby area that charge near msrp for their liquor and those places won't gouge you on the allocated bottles when they come around.

Shady bag charge practice. I brought my own bag, and declined a bag from the store. I asked for a receipt and was shocked to see I was still charged for a bag. When I asked for a refund the cashier was rude and unapologetic. Have been a customer for years and will be cautious to return.

Don't know about their wines. But their small delivery van is passing stopped school busses with lights flashing in Natick at high speed and don't even slow down when bus driver honks after them. Hope your customers got their Pinot on time though. That's what's really important.

There are much better options nearby. I have gone in 3 or 4 times to ask if they had a specific liquor. I even wrote down the name of the liquor once. This isn't a rare liquor, it's top shelf at the bar nearby. I stopped in this week to see if they had it yet. They said no. I asked, "Are you going to get it?" They said "No." and stared at me. I am more than happy to walk an extra block to Blanchards - they are friendly, have a wide variety, and support Black owned businesses (like Uncle Nearest Whiskey). I won't be going back. Being rude and dismissive with a bigger, better liquor store one block north? No, thank you.

Excellent selection and great prices!

Kind of a “hole in the wall” but lots packed in here! Liquor and wine selection surprisingly diverse for such a small shop.
