“Amazing customer service. They have my purchase ready for me when I walk in the door.I would frequent any business owned by these folks. Hard working and dedicated staff. I go out of my way to come here because they truly understand how valuable their customers are.”
“I used Google to locate a package store and this place did NOT show up!? I went to turn around in the parking lot to get to another package store and - Suprise! Great selection of: Vodka, rum, gin, wines... Some additional ones like club soda and tonic for sale too. A wall of coolers full of beers. Reasonable prices and the younge man behind the counter knew where to find items I had no clue about. Good find. Yes I'd stop there again.”

“Connecticut River Wine & Spirits is an absolute gem. The shop has a refined, welcoming atmosphere. The owners are incredibly knowledgeable, and are happy to help point you to the perfect bottle for any occasion. The selection is thoughtfully curated, with everything from unique finds to reliable favorites. A truly classy spot. Highly recommend”
“This is a great full service package store. It doesn't look like much from the front of the building, but when you walk in, the wine selection is extensive, the cold case has a massive selection of beer and the liquor is very well priced. They also have a tasting bar.”

“My favorite liquor store around! Everyone is always so friendly and helpful. The owners are so kind. Pricing is good. Always go out of my way to stop here over anywhere else in town! My wine is always cold and they always have my big bottle of Casamigos Reposado stocked.”
“Erik has an axing selection of wine, beer and liquor. He will help you pick the best for your budget and never disappoints! If you're lucky you can give the store mascot Ruth a smooch too!”
“The owner is AWESOME! I highly recommend Cindy's Wine & Spirits for all your alcohol needs. Cindy is well informed on all the new products and ensures her store is filled with a great selection. The store also supports local brands.”
“Convenient location with a decent selection considering the side of the place. Prices may be 2 or 3 dollars a little higher than usual but hey that's the convenience fee as far as I'm concerned.”
“A gem tucked into East Haddam! I stopped in while driving through the area in hopes of finding a great little Mother’s Day gift. What I found was an amazing little wine and spirits shop owned by the most knowledgeable and hospitable couple. Brendan & Kelley bought this shop about a year ago they said and have totally transformed it from a local package store to a tourist attraction because of their selection and location. Right in the heart of downtown. If you’re looking for something special or looking to try something new, stop in and let them share their world with you!”

“Great service, selection and cleanliness. Small-town feel, but it's a big store. Parking is great. They just need a stoplight up that would make it way easier to get out of their parking lot.”
“Have ordered cases of wine here a couple of times. On top of already really good prices you then get a case discount. Great selection of wine, beer & spirits.”
“Even though there are several liquor stores between my home and the seaside wine, their selection is just that far above and worth the extra time in miles to get whatever wine are spirits, one requires, and their prices are reasonable”
“I've lived in Old Saybrook for 40 years. For many years, 2 of my sisters, who live on Long Island, wanted to send me wine as a Christmas present. The only shop in town who would deliver was Old Colony. He did it for free, and was persistent in getting it delivered. Today, there are 6 stores in town and some of them deliver (one has a $100 minimum for free delivery). I'm for the local guy. The store is on the small side, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have a wide selection. The aisles are narrow, but he has a good selection of wine and beer, and he's very knowledgeable and great with selections. He's also a one-man show. As far as I can tell, he's the only employee. He's got to be the hardest working guy in town. His prices are good; his service is impeccable; his selection is top drawer. What's not to like?”

“Generally a pretty big selection, probably the biggest in the area. Sometimes the beer selection of sours etc is better than others, but usually they have a good selection. They have been doing a fair amount of reorganizing and expanding of their layout, so I'd only expect them to improve the selection as they settle in on that too.”
“Owner is really appreciated in Westbrook as a fair and helpful employer. His knowledge of wines is really good. He will help you find what you want and will order it for you if the doesn't have it.”
“This place is hands down the best place around for good selections and prices! The owner is one of the nicest people I’ve ever met! Owning a business myself I know it’s not easy but Sandy is great with people and makes your trip in easy and fast!! Sandy goes out of her way to make every person who walks in the door feel welcomed and help with a selection! Whether you are just dropping in off the highway or a local in town she will make sure you are satisfied. Can’t say enough good things about this shop!”
“Clean environment, well-organized shelves, and employees who are always ready to assist with a smile.The store employees are friendly, and the store is clean and well-maintained with great customer service.”
“This family owned store is set in such a beautiful location that it is a destination in and of itself. There's a lake across the street with a sandy beach. While it is reserved for residents, nobody will bother you if you make a quick stop and touch your toes in the sand. Just don't setup a party without a town sticker in-season. The view is incredible. The nearby businesses are not to be missed including a gourmet market named Coffee's, All-Pro Shell station full service station, bicycle store, hardware store with gas station and an excellent Italian restaurant due to reopen soon (and others). It's worth hopping off the highway between exits 70-71 just for the drive. Enjoy!”
“this is a larger liquor store with a very expanded selection. Despite its large size, they staffed it at Christmas time so that finding help was not a problem at all and you were greeted and asked if you needed help. No wait to check out as a couple of cashiers were available. the store is always clean in good condition.”
“This liquor store is under new management, and the difference is amazing! The selection has improved tremendously — from wines and spirits to craft beers, everything is well-organized and easy to find. The new team is friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help you pick the right bottle for any occasion.”
