“Amazing selection. Lots of ultra pricey bottles but plenty of accessible bottles too. Kinda feels like you’re in an old dusty library. Check it out for that special bottle!”
“When you need something very specific, this is the place to go. They always have the brand of tequila and agave syrup that I prefer. It can be a little pricey, but the great selection is worth it.”
“Just inquired about some interesting wine at Meritage--they sought it out, and ordered some for me. They are a full service wine shop, staffed with very knowledgeable and friendly folks. This shop has close ties with many top winemakers in the U.S. and Europe, and often have wines that are hard to find anywhere else. Have been a customer for--um--decades. They even delivered wine during the Covid shutdown--true lifesavers! Have attended a number of their wine tasting events, and have learned much about my favorite bev from them.”
“This place is amazing and the customer service is top notch. I regularly ship stuff from South Florida and everything is always in order. This is the one place I can indulge in delicious Prairie stouts!
Thank you so much for your service!!!”
“My fav place to wine shop. You don't need to know everything about wine to shop here. They can help you find something you'll love and the prices are competitive with grocery stores that are less quality.”
“If you're into craft beer or hard seltzers—especially local picks—this is your go-to liquor store in Encinitas. The selection is top-notch, with a strong focus on local breweries and small-batch seltzers that you won't find at bigger chain stores. The shelves are always stocked with fresh, rotating options, from hazy IPAs to crisp lagers and creative seasonal flavors.
The staff is super friendly and genuinely knowledgeable. If you're not sure what to try, they’re happy to offer suggestions or point you toward something new. Prices are fair, and the layout makes it easy to find what you're looking for without having to dig through cluttered aisles.
Bonus points for supporting local brands—this place makes it easy to drink good and feel good about it. Highly recommend!”
“This place is my absolute favorite! It’s a true family business n they employ people from the neighborhood.its a beautiful shop/deli n Everything from great sandwiches to incredible açaí bowls(my absolute favorite and at a steal of a price ~$10) are amazing . These guys make u feel like family and the world needs more business owners like Paul and Mike. Nothing but love 5+++ stars ⭐️”
“Service! Very well organized and when I bought 4 Ritter Sport corn flake chocolate bars next time in the store 30 days later the proprietor tells me the moment I walk through he has lots of Ritter Sport CORNFLAKE chocolate bars on the shelf. That is a good memory.”
“Fantastic salad bar always fun during the holidays they have special items. Sometimes it's a wait to cash out occasionally there's one employee that's grumpy.”
“The store is under new ownership and the improvements are incredible! The shelves are now loaded with the absolute best quality (often highly allocated) wines from around the world. They also have a huge selection of half bottles, spirits, dessert wines, as well as some older vintages. I attended a cabernet tasting and all of the wines were thoughtfully selected and very good. Also, the wines I purchases were below the lowest price I could find anywhere on the internet. The new ownership definitely warrants another visit.”
“Every time I shop there, I receive outstanding customer service! They have a wide selection of everything. I also appreciated the renovations and the cleanliness of the store. Thank you!”
“Our go to place for any quick shopping needs. The owner is friendly, helpful and goes the extra mile for his clients. He ordered things specifically for us. We will definitely be coming back.”
“I have been a customer with this Staters Brother Market for three years and will always appreciate Joe Bravo for his excellent customer service. He always put great value on teamwork, which showed great leadership from top to bottom. I was sad to hear that he had retired. The store will never be the same without him.”
“I remember this store being an Alpha Beta in the 70's, thus being, it's old and small, lacking the modern conveniences you find today in most supermarkets. There is no deli, bakery, fresh cut fruit. I shop here often and find most of the employees nice and friendly, and some that completely lack personality. The meat department is excellent, can't say the same for the seafood.”
“After going thru numerous liquor stores, this place is absolutely the leading one. Very clean, spacious, friendly, sociable, and knowledgeable of liquors. My brother in law came to visit and he's a collector. We actually came here for the pappy bottle picture when we googled. If anything, they have a more variety and rare/expensive ones. Although they sell other products but their main ones are liquors. Other stores have all sorts of stuff piled up in shelves and stuff that made it so "cluttered". It's like "In N Out Burgers" they focus on the main thing they're set to selling.”
“Great customer service and amazing deli and endless choices in their specialty depts. When purchasing a cut of meat or seafood the professionals behing the counter will guide you and even explain cooking instructions if you need! Famous for their Cardiff Krack (Tri tip), you can also purchase a cooked or uncooked roast or a sandwich to go.❤️ Seaside Market!”
“World Market is an odd store, but in the best way....sure there is furniture and stuff, but there is so much more.
1. Exotic Meats for charcuterie boards.
2. Exotic coffee and tea
3. Exotic candies and cookies
4. Other stuff too.
Hard to leave this store without some of the first three listed above.
Oh yes, scored with the caviar for the missus...not for me....
The Busetto Nuggets are EPIC....three versions here....Classico, Chorizo, and Black Truffle....So, so good!”
“Great variety of liquor items at reasonable prices. Staff was friendly. The store is very clean. And there’s plenty of parking available that you could just walk up to the store. I would recommend this place.”
“I've been in a couple times and they've been nothing but nice and had what I was looking for ready to go and at a reasonable price. One time I actually got to the counter and rang up and the dude working there told the woman ringing me up "Oh, that one says $24 but it's $19 right now, it should be marked down", he didn't need to, just a solid honest gesture. Really bad Mexican soap opera blaring on the TV but hey that's part of the charm.”
“I happened to stop into the Keg N Bottle to buy drinks after a long day. We are from out of town and unfortunately our stay in SD was extended due to unfortunate circumstances. I walked into this establishment and was greeted by pure kindness, that really uplifted me. Faris, was amazing and so kind. It’s really refreshing to encounter such great people/ humans. I would recommend Keg N Bottle to anyone. If I lived in SD, I would go out on my way to shop Keg N Bottle.”
“I tried the curbside pick up today. There was an issue with my card, Peter provided me the number to call.
Ashley shopped for me. She was great! She checked in with me while she shopped for price changes and product availability. They brought it out to my car , just fantastic. Great feature for people who are not able to shop on their own.
Thank you! Job well done!”
“Great selection of stouts porters and brown ales always wish they would have their beers price labeled some missing price and some New beers weren't even in the system but OUT for sale. Happened a few times since going there.no problemo but that's a sale missed.”
“What a great bottles great prices grocery soft drink deals great customer service and very polite staff thanks from the bottom of my heart for you guys let’s support this place very honest people”
“Amazing selection, great pricing & staff. Went to a Wine, Women & Wealth networking group in the spacious room they make available for meetings. The staff even brings & serves wine samples!”
“A great store. Has been for years and they just keep adding little touches to make it that much more attractive for the consumer. Drop in for a wash, some gas, some booze, a cigar and some Mexican takeout. Dicks”
“Best Liquor store in Southern California. Cheap, Diverse, Well Stocked, and Excellent Customer Services. Whether you want Candy, 99 Proof Liquor, or Baked Beans, this is your spot.”
“Coolest staff, very nice and always stocked up on inventory. I can always count on them to have what I want. Everyone there has become family. Big shout out to both Fredys and Fadi for always being very helpful.”
“Kim's mart is my favorite store on Miramar road, they have everything you need, and they accept EBT. alcohol, tshirts, this store is famous for their big jackpot lottery winners. The guy behind the counter is very nice.”
“Had to pop in here quickly on the way somewhere and parking lot pretty full. However the prices were competitive and good array of items. Helpful team here as well.”
“I sincerely believed that establishments with a personal touch were a distant nostalgic memory... but this pharmacy changed that belief. Jason and his team are professional, prompt and knowledgeable. Their service is absolutely fantastic and they manage to go the extra mile on every ask. I appreciate the transparency, the support and the patience this group offers. I wish every business was this dependable!!! Jason, you are THE BEST! Thank you thank you thank you!”
