“Hand to heart — one of the best pizzas we’ve ever had! Got a tip from a local on the plane to try this and they didn’t mislead. Partners with a local ale house, which was also good. The Parmesan crisp around the edges of the crust made this next level good. Don’t let the thick crust fool you! It’s so light and crispy. We’ll visit every trip to the area.”
“The highest quality and best service for miles around. A throw back to when service mattered, the staff is amazingly helpful. We have gone here for over 30 years and adore the place.”
“I always appreciate Felix's skilled info and advice on wine -- now appreciate wines we would mot have tried otherwise. This shop is a "go to"!'”

“My corner liquor store. Everyone needs one of these. Selection of alcohol, great. Selection of ice creams, my drug of choice when I need it, also plenty. They have ben and jerry's as well as Marianne's, the local creamery. Need milk, butter or flour? They have it. Very friendly. Spanish speaking.”
“This place has been there forever. Really unique old school store , has everything for tourists and locals as well. Must try a WowWow tuna sandwich, they have been making it for a long time and still is really good.”

“Had the wonderful experience to enter into this fine establishment. Needed to stop by for drinks and the lady at the counter was so friendly and great, definitely a good vibe. Recommended us to get her new drinks that just came out, the Hard Arizonas…nice. Very pleasant experience, sometimes you get rude people working at liquor stores definitely NOT the experience this time. 10/10 would recommend. Also has great candy. Customer service was spectacular. ‘Twas very lit ??”

“This store has a variety of items to choose from prepackaged foods outdoor furniture, tables for inside or outside chairs inside or outside pillows etc. They might have stuff here that you won't find at other stores, such as Safeway Lucky's even Costco. So depending on what you're looking for give this place a shot it might have something you like Even just to walk in and browse around is a good thing to do. The staff is friendly and they're always trying to help you find whatever you need in the event you can't locate something. Remember it's not your typical grocery store.”
“If you like Gin then Venus is the place for you! Food is healthy and delicious too. Limited menu but everything is tasty. Not inexpensive but worth the price. Waitstaff are attentive but not intrusive. Simple ambience.”
“Lucy is cool and kind and has descent prices compared to ALL other liquor stores.only problem is the old man who works weekend nights and even weekday nigjts he's a scammer he Charges several dollar's more then her and I told her sobsge said no no she's gonna tell him no more overcharging but then I there and he tried to charge even more then before! Bottom line dont buy when old man is there!!!”

“They have a large selection. Liquor, a lot of local products as well as in the wine dept.The owners are really nice you just have to be nice first. They have atm and do lottery. Always a cast of characters around! Have fun.”
“Mission liquors just made big points with me. I asked them to stock the local Luna see vodka and I don't know if they were actually listening to me or not but they had it just a few weeks later. It's also cheap at $7.99 peep this tho: White claw 2.0 is available here. you might want to call in advance to double check they have it in stock. is there anything better together than those two above and perhaps even some vegan pizza from blaze up the street? I submit that there is not!”

“I like this place. It’s chill, it has a laid back atmosphere despite being small and filled to the brim. I like the aesthetic of it, it really feels like a corner store. That probably sounds weird but, it was familiar despite having never gone there if that clarifies it. It was fast to get in and out. They do have a 5$ minimum on credit as a heads up, but prices on drinks where reasonable. Make sure to take a while to look at the devour, it’s pretty fun.”
“Super convenient liquor store bodega at the base of the pier in Santa Cruz. They have most everything you could want for drinks as well as sundries. Prices are of course a little bit higher than you would pay at Target or BevMo, but location, location, location!”

“The best sandwiches, especially the hot pastrami. Never hesitate to bring my friends here. Usually they are quite busy and confusing for first timers but very fast service, a cute patio (although noisy due to Soquel Drive), delicious food!”
