- ShawnNovember 7, 2015Like Steve Ballmer says...Sandwiches. Sandwiches. Sandwiches. Top notch bread from Salty Tart, primo ingredients, and friendly behind the counter. A jewel in the sandwich desert of MPLS! My favorite.
Alanna RiceAugust 4, 2017SO many varieties of wine and on top of that spirits and local beers. Plus, stop in the cheese shop next door and pick-up a tasty sandwich and international cheeses to pair with your wine!
Give your liver an exercise! Go for the six bottles of wine for $36 deal. Theres usually a pretty good selection to choose from.- Try the sandwiches in the cheese chop area. Easily one of the best sandwiches for the price in uptown.
Much better selection and a lot easier to get around then henn&lake liquor,and the counter staff is much friendlier,oh yeah and they also have a cheese shop,and its cheaper as well
Amy CullenAugust 6, 2012Try the made to order sandwiches from the cheese shop. My fav is the turkey pear Brie sandwich toasted with mayo instead of mustard. It's AHHHHMAZING!- Awesome selection of wine AND beer. So much craft beer. Some of it is even refrigerated. Can't beat it!
Wonderful selection! Great specials and prices. Love the staff too, the know our dogs by name and always have treats for them!
Best selection of beer and wine in the Uptown area. The stuff on sale is usually pretty tasty too!
Phil KelleyJanuary 1, 2015Friendly staff, always staffed, when their are vendor or product tastings is the best!
Don't skip the cheese shop. Try the 5 yr aged Gouda if you're not sure what to get, people.
Nicole GarayaldeApril 25, 2011Check out the cheese shop. Grab a baguette, bensons bacon, and some cheese. They also have chocolates and gourmet good items.
There are some wicked smart people that work here. They offer spot on recommendations.
Best liquor store on lake street. Great craft beer selection and best prices on bottles, wine and beer.

Get a sandwich! The turkey lu lu and the kim-cheez are both amazing- they have the best ipa selection around and the wine is up there too
Pick up a crusty French loaf from the cheese shop. Best in the city.
jon nuessmeierMarch 16, 2011Salty Tart baguette, Italian asiago(fresco), molinar salami, mustard! perfection
Stare at the the 15 hundred dollar bottle of Louis XIII for a little while, then buy some cheap whiskey or PBR tallboys.
MUCH needed location, and great store. Wine, beer, liquor, cheese. Opening special: 6 bottles of wine = $36!!
Regularly has an awesome discount on twelve year Glenlivet.
Saint AshleeMay 21, 2012Don't dare leave without a case of Blonde Ale in your arm. The epitome of summer.
Planning to have one of the largest craft beer selections in uptown. Can't wait!

"Not the cheapest. But it's a small joint in the middle of uptown. What do you expect. Convenient and street parking usually isn't bad (except on weekends). Staff is helpful, if you ask."

"Voted Best Liquor Store by City Pages in 2011! It is good for beer, cheap liquor, and people-watching, and also has a large selection of low-end fortified wine!"
City Pages - 9.1
"Plan-ahead to swing by for a tasting to find a new favorite amaro or liquor you haven't yet tried. Sandwiches in the cheese shop are to die for, and don't forget a Palmier cookie when checking out!!!"
