“It was pleasure to browse the selection of wine and spirits here. Lisa was an absolute delight to chat with as well. Not only did she have great insight about the wines in the store but also for the area. What a wonderful welcome to have for my first time in Simsbury and Connecticut! I’ll hopefully be back in the future to take a class or two! ?”
“I can't rate them on that bad vibe but I mean we had a differences at one point or another but it's childish it I've always been grown so I have always respected him you now that's what he's doing...
I wish the best for him in the store next weekend existence and I wish the serenity❤️ success in his journey of being a leader of success God bless”
“I can't say enough good things about Taylor and the team at Worldwide. They really are the best in the business. Very large selection of everything and always at the right price! Don't miss the sales, you will save $$$!”
“Vinny took great care of me - super helpful in bourbon selection and customer service top notch for future drops and store picks! Definite stop when in Hartford area for bourbon!!!”
“Owner is very cool and will remember your particular beverage of choice so if you frequently go there it'll always be in stock, also bought an expired bottle of Bacardi Coquito and he gladly let me exchange it for something else with no argument or questions. I recommend this place 100%”
“While there are lots of places we can go, we choose The Booze Box every time because they do things the way they should be done. They make you feel like you are a part of the family so it goes beyond just having a variety of great products at a reasonable price. Thanks to the new owners and the entire crew for making it happen day in and day out. Appreciate you and The Booze Box ???”
“I don't know why you would shop for wine anywhere else. No matter who you ask in the place, they all seem to know quite a bit about wine and are very good at making pairing selections if you give them the information about what you're serving. The staff is very friendly and always very eager to help. Their prices seem as good as anywhere so there's really no reason to shop anywhere else.”
“Stopped by the store for the first time to pick up some Bourbon. Staff was incredibly helpful amd they had a nice selection at reasonable prices. I'll definitely be stopping by again.”
“Always had great service here. Very friendly and always helpful to both myself and my sister. For the most part has a really good selection, runs out of things occasionally as expected like anywhere else. One of the few places to actually carry these seltzers my sister had found called press. Definitely recommend if you like selzters but don't like the super sweet stuff. I also love that they have a big selection of the different moonshines, the big jars and even in the nippers.”
“Sam and his wife are very pleasant. They always has everything stocked, and organized. Joanne is also wonderful. If I have to go to a package store, Big Saver is my#1 choice.”
“This is a no frills package store but it's conveniently located for locals using this plaza. It pretty much has everything you'd need in terms of spirits. Large cooler of domestic, imported and microbrew beers, hard liquors, and bottled wines. Every package store has something others don't and this one has its share of hidden gems which puts it on my go to list for certain liqueurs or brands. The best thing about Marandino Spirits is its good natured permittee, Vipin. If something you buy regularly is out of stock or not being delivered, he'll call the distributor or commissioner until he gets it back in on a regular basis.”
“Great package store with excellent customer service. Don't miss their whiskey barrel picks! Always fair pricing, and a huge selection. Nick and Co are top notch!”
“This place is literally a stone's throw from where I live, so I frequent it when buying alcohol. The selection is decent - I especially like the organic wines. However, their designated section is a little sparse because I was told these wines are scattered throughout the store. They do seem to carry some labels that I haven't seen elsewhere. They have a decent beer and liquor section, also. I am not sure of the employee's names, but the newer ones are very friendly and helpful. Front parking can be tight when it's busy, but there's a back lot for overflow.”

“I have been a patron of this store for many years. I've always experienced polite, friendly service. The prices are fair and I like that it is a neighborhood packy. Can't wait to see the renovations when finished.”
“A great spot that provides every need! Whether you're celebrating or just want to enjoy a nice cold drink, this is the spot that opens early and won't let you down!
Employees are the best and deserve a raise!
God bless in Jesus name Amen ?”
“Great spot to get all your drinks at a reasonable price! The employees and owner are knowledgeable and friendly! Next time you want to unwind go to discount liquors and you won't be disappointed!
God bless in Jesus name Amen ?”
“I started coming here simply because it was the closest package store to my house. I don't usually leave reviews, but the people that work here are always so so nice. They help you with whatever you need, give you recommendations, and let you know if there are any sales or deals going on. There was even a gentleman who helped me put my items in my car without me asking. The selection is wide and always has what I need in terms of wine, beer, or liquor. They have some mix ins like pineapple juice etc. And they do have ice if needed which is helpful (small bags, not the larger ones found at grocery stores). Highly recommend!”
“Great spot on the way in and out of Bristol on or off the highway down the road. Convenient and always nice to walk in and they say hello also making you feel like they appreciate your business. Good prices. Parking lot is small but they are never too busy so that's nice. It's a smaller building but they organized everything so the store looks good. Clean and organized. Have a little of everything besides a big variety of wines. Definitely not the store for wines.”

“Not only is there a terrific selection of wine and spirits, but the service is fantastic! We had some complications with a delivery on Christmas eve that was handled very professionally and was successfully resolved with no hassle. I would highly recommend!”
“Very happy that they carry Romanian wine but the salesperson didn't know so I had to search by myself. Good European beer selection also! Definitely coming back! Very casual ambiance and service was pleasant.”
“A nice selection, they always treat me very well. Younger male employee approached me and asked if I needed help. He pointed me to the ciders and it was nice of him to offer help!
The young lady in wines was very helpful and knowledgeable. Huge selection always daunts me as I'm mainly a beer drinker but I will be back!”
“Friendly, knowledgeable staff; they're great at recommending wine pairings. Great selection of products and if they don't have something they will try to get it for you. Highly recommend dropping in and giving them a try!”
“Awesome store, great staff, ever-changing selection of beer from IPS’s, DIPA’s, pale ales, Moscow mules, huge selection of wine and other liquor. Great place to shop and prices are low in comparison to nearby liquor stores!”
“Best ice in the area cubes small to very large size bags great if you're having a catering event or party best thing for your daily cooler needs lasts way longer than regular store ice .”

“K&S is your typical 'friendly neighborhood package store'. It is convenient to locate right on route 72, the parking is ample and close to the entrance, and the store is small to medium sized. When you enter, you're always greeted by the friendly woman who owns the store. It's everything you'd expect from a New England packy- dim lighting, smells like Grandma's basement, cramped with little floor space, but still fully stocked with liquors, wine, and beer. A lot of the beer is refrigerated, which is always great. If I ask for nippers, they always ask if I'd like them cold. They go above and beyond to make sure I have everything I want before I leave- even if it means digging around for something that hasn't yet been stocked. The prices are comparable with other small-business package stores, so if you're traveling in the area, I very much recommend K&S for your liquor needs.”
“Nice liquor store very friendly staff nice well lit establishment. Huge selection of whisky’s and Vodka’s. Great collections of wines both popular and new! Right but major highways who can complain lol follow @bryanalfredmusic on IG”
“Idk the gentleman's name but he is great. His recommendations are always on point with what I'm looking for. Also seems to have limited edition bottles and some from years earlier. Thank you for our orange mango margaritas with our Don Julio 70. Delicious”
