Distillery

Not the best. Customer service was bad, staff are rude, not much selection. I took my time looking for a specific wine due to allergies and the one lady who works there raised her voice at me and said “why are you walking in circles, you’ve been in here for a long time.” She was also on her cellphone and chatting on her phone. Go to better places like Sherbrooke or Highlands or even costco because they actually want your business!

Can’t beat their prices, they accommodate their customers and treat you with respect and kindness. Highly recommend

The best customer service.

The staff are so friendly and helpful. They have a nice variety of products, and I would return just for the excellent customer service alone

The man behind the counter was not wearing a mask when the mask mandates were in effect.

Sure, the prices are very good but it's all about the people. Always friendly faces and helpful suggestions for wine pairings. Let these guys help you find your new favorites! I'll never go anywhere else.

Danny and his team are some of the most knowledgeable people in the city. Doesn't matter if your grabbing after work beers or planning a wedding. They got it all!

Great prices and family owned! Friendly too

I needed to pick up a bottle of Gin and was driving by the Capilano liquor Depot today on the my way home. I have never been in there before but thought I would run in and grab it quick. I had my daughter with me who came in the store as she has done many times before in different liquor stores. I walked in with my daughter behind me, I grabbed the bottle and went to the till with my daughter in tow. The guy at the till said he needs to see ID from us and I show him mine, then he says he needs to see my daughters ID. I told him I am the one buying it and I showed you mine. He says it doesn’t matter that she is with me so he needs to see hers too. I said she doesn’t have ID she’s a minor and he said that he can’t sell anything to me then and was very rude about it. I have been in many different liquor stores and I have never had this issue. The sign on the door clearly states that you can be asked for ID if you appear to look under the age of 25 years old. I am 47 and have no problem showing my ID, which I did. The sign on the door also indicates that minors are permitted in the store when accompanied by an adult which my daughter was. My daughter did not touch or carry anything she was just beside me. But yet I was still refused sales just because she was with me. That doesn’t even make any sense considering the liquor laws in Alberta permit minors in liquor stores when accompanied by an adult. But obviously not at the Liquor Depot in Capilano. So I left and we stopped at the next liquor store I drove passed, me and my daughter walked in I grabbed a bottle of Gin like I did before and walked to the till. The cashier had no problem selling it to me and even made friendly small chat with my daughter and we were on our way. Fyi to anyone that plans on bringing their kids into the Liquor Depot in Capilano be prepared to be refused sales even though the sign on the door indicates minors are allowed. I will never go back to the Liquor Depot in Capilano Mall it’s not worth the hassle, I’ll spend my money elsewhere

Welcome to Albertino Liquor... to the right will likely be one of the really friendly owners. To the left full shelves of liquor from all over the world. Sam, one of the owners called us, wanted some ice, we were excited. We stopped by and what we found was a liquor store with personality. A place where a few families are fed each time you buy liquor and ice from here. Sam’s family and mine. That is the beauty of local, of the independent, you are not giving your money to wealthy people with lots of it, you are giving it to a few people who live and work around where you live. When Sam takes his family for dinner, it could be at a restaurant where you work. Sam is able to feed his family because you shop at his liquor store. You are able to feed yours because Sam buys the food where you work. I am crazy. I love the independent, the try to compete against giants. You never get rich, you pay your bills, save enough for a vacation each year. I am really excited to have Albertino Liquor as a client. You should to because when you support local as they do with ice based on where ice is manufactured, you are helping create manufacturing jobs in the Edmonton area. The proof in the pudding is the boss bought Ouzo and I bought Fish Bone IPA. Just by using the local ice company they increased their sales, got a 5 star review, ... and more... because I am excited about jobs where I live. We should all be excited by jobs where we live. Albertino Liquor is creating jobs where we all live. I applaud them!

Pretty good prices and very friendly staff. Generally speaking it is a pleasure to shop here.

The distillery tour was amazing! Very informative guide who knew what he was talking about. Loved tasting all of the different drinks they have to offer - especially the barrel aged gin. I will definitely be back!

Great Staff....Good Deals...

Knowledgeable staff and excellent wine selection. If they don't have it, and it is at all available, they will order it in for you.

Good selection and lowest prices. Staff is very nice and helpful.

Good selection and good prices as well! Look for the weekly flyer.

Always have what I'm looking for, I like the store layout and all the staff are nice.
