There really isn’t much to write about a liquor store other than 3 key things: selection, service, and price. I feel like with my unique experience here, this location killed it in all 3. I was looking for something specific, Black Raspberry Cîroc. I was talking with my local liquor store in Nampa, they told me they only knew of 2 locations in Idaho that received shipment (and by shipment I mean 1 bottle…), this location being one of them. I called this place up, the woman working knew EXACTLY what I was looking for and put the ONLY bottle they had on hold (without me even asking). I was already in the area (was doing some shopping nearby), so I hurried down to pick it up. Right when I walked in, I asked the woman working (which was the woman I spoke on the phone with) for Black Raspberry Cîroc, and her only response was “Are you George...?”. From then on out, I knew I had to write a review for this place, just to spotlight the loyalty of her. I’m confident that she would’ve held it for me if someone else came through looking (of course unless I didn’t come by within a respectable time period). I literally spent less than a minute in there, in and out is what I like, primarily because it’s super hard to NOT to get tempted in there (or any of these magical stores in general). The plan is to never visit this or any of the other liquor stores again (one of my New Year Resolutions) but knowing that this was my resolution last year as well, I feel like there’s a high chance I will be back. Overall the selection, service, and price were A1. Nothing comes to mind in terms of improvement, other than Diddy shipping more Cîroc to Idaho. Everyone who tried it loved it, felt nice bringing something unique to our holiday get together. 5 stars ALL day EVERY day, much thanks to the woman working (I regret NOT asking her for her name).

My boyfriend and I went in for a specific rum. They told us they didn't have it but could get it from another store for us. The store called and told us it was in store. When we went to pick it up the next day, they couldn't find it and assumed they sold it since it was not in their system. The ladies were apologetic and said they would get two more this time. Again, got a call it was there and we have 2 days to pick it up. On the second day, we went to go pick it up. Once again, they sold both. The guy at the register was very rude about it. At this point, we don't even want the rum. What's the point of putting something on hold for someone and sell it within the 2 days they have to pick it up? And the attitude given from the guy at the register about our frustration of ordering 3 bottles of rum and all 3 being sold.

Get what you need. Little waiting and nice service.

Went here at 10:30 on a Saturday, and despite the sign clearly stating they opened at 10 on Friday and Saturday, nobody was there. I called a different store to let them know and she mentioned Fairview & Fivemile had the same problem. Totally unacceptable since this is the only place in our archaic state we can buy hard alcohol.

This store is pretty cool, clean, quick and helpful employees.
