Racist staff! I would avoid this place at all cost they treated my friend very poorly because they said she looked Chinese.

Staff shockingly rude, and untrained on out of state licenses. I was unfairly refused. I went into this store to be grab alcohol for a tailgate visit — the woman cashier called me over as I was still browsing, said “let’s get this over-with, let me see your ID now”. I thought that was very forthcoming, but okay; get out my Illinois ID with my birthdate in ’94. She said she “could not verify if it was real” and asked me to leave. I instinctively replied “I’m flattered, but this is a real ID and that is my real birthdate” (like what else do you say??) — and she quickly came back saying she would TAKE IT if I didn’t leave. I’m just a 28 year old trying to get some liquor. I was so shocked by the whole interaction, I just walked out. I have NEVER had an experience like that in any city or even college town I’ve lived in. Her tone and demeanor were SO abrasive. Definitely avoid this store and go to one of the many other options. The inconvenience was shocking and annoying, but the joy this woman seemingly got from being so, so rude and snobby-sounding shook me for a minute. Have a normal, not unpleasant liquor run elsewhere.

Went to buy alcohol and the lady cashier i had refused to sell because she "didn't feel comfortable with my ID". She couldn't verify that it was real and that's never happened to me before. There were customers behind me and i was so shocked and embarrassed I took my IDs and walked out. (I now know you can call the police to come and verify for you). I came back with my passport and went to the other cashier who was really nice. I have an Illinois license which i would think is common here but clearly she didn't know what that's supposed to look like.

Very friendly and knowledgeable staff, definitely the place to go before a night out on the town!

Was recommended to go to this place. Very rude young man with red ginger beard. He obviously does not like his employment there. When you work retail, It is ALL about how you treat the customer!! Will NOT go back and will NOT recommend. Keep it up, and you’re gonna lose a lot more sales!! Owner shouldn’t be able to afford that, especially during these Covid times.
