I was getting a regular 750ml bottle and the cashier told me the handle/double size was only a dollar more and he went and grabbed it for me. This place is awesome! Thank you to everyone who works here.

Buyer beware! I bought a $10 bottle of sparkling wine here and then when I looked at my credit card bill it turns out they charged me $18. I’m having no luck with getting them to refund me the overcharge and my credit card company can’t help me because I paid with their chip reader. Bad business all around.

Always have a great experience at Contan Liquors. Most recently, I had some amazing help, from Manny, for my wine selection. Cheers!

Nice place I have had to wait long at all. Although when I do go, there is never any one who could suggest a good white wine. I can't drink red. Maybe it was just the night I went in.

Stay away from this store. Its beat and rundown for starters. Leftover in a closed shopping plaza. The main reason I suggest staying away is that their entire wine selection is "hot".. not stolen but HOT you touch a bottle and its warm like its been under a heater. Every bottle is basically ruined but they dont care, they still sell it. Ive walked through testing every location and theyre ALL hot. Ill settle on a bottle that is the least hot and drinking it just proves theres no good choices in this store. If youre looking for beer, its your run of the mill place. Not a huge selection. but again, some to most are skunked. Some of the staff is nice, The guys in the back are good guys. Theres one women in her 50's or so whos nice, probably the youngest one there, but youll get the occasional bitter old woman in her 70's who really doesnt know what shes doing and takes forever. If youre looking for EXPENSIVE VINEGAR this is your place, otherwise steer clear
