You are not even allowed to look at the wine selection... all products are blocked from view, and the staff are not helpful. This is a terrible retail concept, predicated understandably by the rise in crime downtown. Such a nice wine selection, locked away.

Counter service only, you cannot browse the inventory. The prices are also quite high compared to other liquor stores in the area.

Staff were friendly and quickly hooked me up with a great bottle of BC wine.

You can't actually browse any of their product. Bit of a snobby way to do business, and not the way to encourage people to try new things. I suppose if you know exactly what you want it'd be ok, but seems a pretty bad way to run a liquor store.

Check the dates on your beer because they seem to move old stock as "recommendations". I went here twice and each time I let the staff suggest some new beers to add to my purchase. Both times, the beers were past the Best Before date or 6 months past the manufacture date.
