The whole family is just down to earth good people! Vinnie is the one who brings love to everyone that enters in, Ray is the man who has the dry sense of humor, Pop is the brains of the outfit, Mama rules the roost from behind the scenes, Sister helps out when really needed, Uncle takes care of the time consuming issues. Their crew behind the scenes are phenomenal!!! This store is THE BEST IN THE WHOLE METRO AREA. I won't go anywhere else. You need it? They have it or can get it. Just aren't words to say how GREAT THIS little store is and it's all because of the best team in the whole city. Try them, guaranteed you'll be back!!!
Excellent liquor store and no comparison to the ABC stores. Why? Because S & R liquors have the really good, hard to find selections that ABC can only dream to have on their shelves. The prices were extremely fair as well. The periodic tastings they have are remarkable too. The staff is incredibly knowledgeable, as they can suggest a spirit based on your described tastes, and they are spot on! I'd highly recommend this place as it is and will continue to be my go to place for high quality liquor. Thanks S & R...keep doing what you do!
The owners provide amazing service and are very knowledgeable. They are also very nice and don't make you feel pressured to buy anything. Given the level of service it could be an expensive place, but the prices are not bad at all, some items are very competitively priced. Also, they have a huge selection. So if you want to get something that is hard to find then this is the place. One of the owners even said he would order something if they don't carry it. Definitely check this place out and support a fantastic local DC business.
i wouldn’t even call this a liquor store. it’s a store that sells an experience by the libation connoisseurs, Ray & Vinnie. their energy is infectious and their knowledge of wine and liquors is impeccable! not only have they suggested great wines that’ll pair well with food; they’ve also gotten me out of trouble with my lady quicker with their selections from the tastings that they hold weekly to the energy and culture of the store, there’s nothing not to love. i love whenever i’m able to visit!
I rarely drink, and when I do it's usually just beer. However, I went in for margarita ingredients with no knowledge of tequila. I left 30 minutes later with everything I needed and a better understanding of the differences between the different types of tequila. I received 20 minutes of one-on-one knowledgeable explanation with tastes to determine the sophistication of my tongue. They provide service that can't be beat. I will be back the next time I need anything alcoholic.
Best, best, best liquor store. I live in Virginia and selection is limited... Damn ABC! I went to S&R and found one of my favorite bourbons, Breckenridge, at a price that was very reasonable. Also, urged me to try a sample of Rock Hill, aged in solera casks, delicious. How could I resist? Folks there are so helpful and selection is wonderful. Definitely worth the trip!
We stopped by here on our way home while we had friends in town to grab some supplies for cocktail night. Not only was the selection great but Ray chatted with us and helped us celebrate our friend being cancer free! It was a bright spot of the day with just some fun human kindness. Thanks ray! The locals of this group def know where to grab their liquor from now on
Amazing! These guys went out of their way to help me find a special and very hard to find gift for a friend. Responded quickly to emails, held the gift aside for me (although it was in high demand) and were super kind and friendly when I got to the store. Great local business. Be sure to stop in- you will not be disappointed.
This place is amazing. I had been to 4 liquor stores in search of specific items before being referred to S&R. Oh my goodness what a selection! But even better than the alcohol are the owners, Vinnie and Rick spent time describing the various labels and made me feel like family. Thank you for a wonderful afternoon …
S&R Wine and Liquor not only has the best prices and selection, the owners work their butts off to make sure you are happy and informed. This type of service is a rare find. I would give them higher rating if I could, because I now model my customer service after theirs. I especially recommend for high end gifts.
One of the best stores in DC in my opinion. The super friendly and inviting staff is extremely knowledgeable and willing to share their knowledge and stories with you to get you the bottle you want. They offer tastings occasionally and are not shy to share their offerings, could not recommend this place enough!
It's a MUST to stop into S&R whenever I'm in town. They have literally everything! They have items that cannot be found in many other places. Ray and Vinnie are always welcoming and accommodating! They are extremely knowledgeable and just simply nice people. Great prices, great people, great location!
About 3 weeks ago we had a gathering for 70 people at the Eisenhower Building which is part of the White House. The folks from S&R Liquor did an outstanding job with responding to our emails quickly, recommending wines and delivering. Very professional. Would recommend them to anyone!
Excellent selection with fantastic customer service but..... the prices are on the high side. From a whiskey perspective, whoever is doing the ordering understands what the enthusiasts want. If the prices were 10 to 15% lower, it would easily be a 5 star establishment.
one of the best in the biz - crazy friendly, crazy passionate. will answer any questions you have and always point you in the right direction. never tried to upsell me, never tried to push a product. they just know good stuff and want you to try it.
This is my favorite liquor store anywhere, and we go in every time we're in DC. The owner is great, and he has great whiskey recommendations every time. We'll be there again Friday and are looking forward to it (a little too much maybe ). …
Bought some wine and tequila for a bachelorette party off their website and had it delivered since I'm too busy to shop this week. Wow!! WAY better deals than Drizly (crooks) and Barmy's (who auto grat a tip for themselves... I'm industry
Decent selection for a downtown store with good prices. Generally cheaper than VA ABC stores if you can believe it and staff is very friendly and helpful. I'll be making it my regular spot to purchase my martini and margarita necessities.
My go-to place for wine recommendations, especially when gifting. Vinnie is the nicest and incredibly knowledgeable. I always feel like I’m getting the best recommendation, not just being pushed to buy the most expensive bottle. The
Fantastic store, huge selection of anything and everything you can think of. One of the nicest and knowledgeable group of people in the Biz. Take a peek at their WhistlePig 15 year as well as their Sonor Wines collection …
After checking once for a particular wine I had previously seen in this store, they didn't have any of It and told me to check back for restock in about 5 days. I did, but they still didn't have it! Very disappointing.
Super friendly staff and owners, low pressure, awesome bourbon and whiskey selection! The owner knows his stuff!!! They even broke open a bottle of Rye Whiskey for us to sample!!!! If in DC, this is the place to go!
They're passionate, they're informed, and they're willing to help you buy a bottle that will suit your tastes and your wallet. If you're around here and you're not buying from them, I'm not sure what you're doing.
Guy behind the counter gave me a great recommendation based on what I was looking for, gave me a free sample, and set me up with a reasonably priced scotch from a distillery I hadn't tried before. Thanks!
We just visited S&R Liquors and Vinny was awesome with helping us find the passion fruit liqueur we were looking for. He also introduced us to a delicious tequila! We will be back for our next purchases!
These guys are absolutely the best in the city. Tastings, advice, selection, price....I can go on and on. If you're going to be lotal to ONE liquor store in the city, make it S&R. PERIOD. Thanks guys!
Best Whisky store I've ever been to. Great selection (including Sprinbank) and great staff (especially Vinnie). A bit expensive but the service and experience definitely worth the extra few bucks.
Vinnie makes you feel like a long lost friend and ensures you know what you're getting. If you don't know what you're looking, he's going to find and it's going to be a good time along the way.
Overwhelming selection in a good way. Just ask for help and you'll getbgreat guidance from a pro. Helped us pick out some bourbon and cognac. Just a great spot. Will be back and thank you!
Beautiful shop and outstanding service! Love that they offer military discount and how friendly they are to all customers. Couldn't be happier with the prices and service at this store.
Good prices, huge selection, willing to work to get you want you want if they don't have it, tastings, etc. This place has and does it all. If you work downtown and need booze, go here.
Amazing selection, knowledgeable staff. They sell one of my most favorites which is Chacho at this store. Prices are very reasonable for Washington DC. I really like this liquor store.
I walked in today for a liquor that I’ve heard was good and they greeted me and showed me in the nicest possible way where the bottle was! They seem to know their stuff! Love it!
What an amazing store! The friendly vibes, stellar character, unbeatable pricing, impeccable behavior, and exceptional service at this liquor store left me truly impressed.
Simply the best liquor store ever, both for its incredible selection (bourbon drinkers take note) and warm knowledgeable service. Go and you will never shop anywhere else.
Favorite liquor store in DC. Knowledgeable, helpful staff, quality tastings, and harder to find bottles. This was the first place I was able to find byrrh, for example.
A very friendly and cozy place for a drink or two, definitely recommend this spot, they treat everyone like someone! Cudos, to the gentlemen that runs this location!
First time in yesterday and won't be the last. Very friendly, but not pushy, staff. Know their stuff. Tasters available. Good range. Decent prices for where it is.
Great place but might miss it during renovations. They hold wine tastings at local restaurants and have a great selection in store. Overall great experience.
These guys are the coolest ever! They always make you feel welcome, the store offers a variety of services, and did I mention how handsome they were? ; )
Most sophisticated liquor store in DC. Not huge, but perfect selection -- including the rare and delicious 2 and 3 star Ron de Barillito.
Scotch lovers, you need to stop by asap. They have the most amazing selection I have ever seen. Vinnie will take great care of you.
I highly recommend this store. They are very friendly and very educated about their job. Shopping here is a five star experience.
Impressive selection of different hard liquors, knowledgeable staff. Led me to exactly the type of drink for which I was looking.
I have known Vinnie from previous engagements at a big corporate law firm in Washington, D.C. I highly recommend their services!
the best liquor store ever!!! and the greatest people i met!!! love the place love the place!!! Vinnie and Ray !!! love them!!!
It's not very big, so the paucity of selection of wines is understandable, and it's DC, so the high prices are what they are.
Varied selection of drinks, friendly and knowledgable staff and reasonably priced. If only all liquor stores were like this.
A wine and liqour store that is close and convenient to where I work. I love the layout of the store. I go there frequently.
Amazing establishment & the owners are top notch gentlemen. They treat u like family. I would shop anywhere else.
Excellent selection and prices!! These guys are knowledgeable and will even let you taste in the tasting area.
A crazy amount of liquor here. Nice craft beer selection at a reasonable price. Employees were very helpful.
Owner was really helpful helping us select wines at our price point. good selection of wines and spirits.
Great selection.. lots of high end options.. better pricing than many other quality bottle shops in DC.
Was closed on the snow day, 12/16... don’t have a direct phone number or does not respond emails
Tasting almost daily and knowledgeable and friendly staff. Talk to Vinnie about tequila.
Great place for hard-to-find cocktail ingredients. Very friendly and knowledgable staff.
Pretty cool people. Open to help and happy to have a venezuelan customer at their store.
Amazing selection and amazing service, this is the only liquor store I will go to in DC.
30% cheaper than another nearby store on the exact same bottle! Super friendly too.
