Chat’s is a terrific wine and liquor store. It’s not huge but it really punches above its weight for selection and quality. They regularly do tastings, and Bernie is a wizard at recommending a bottle of wine or spirits.

Burnie is a true connoisseur of fine wine and spirits! He's an amazing business owner, community leader and all around generous person. His staff is just as sweet and they give the best recommendations. Always spot on! We're willing to do the drive from Anne Arundel and Howard County anytime.

Great selection and amazing customer service! They were doing a rum tasting and the employee(I didn’t get his name) was super knowledgeable and nice. I asked the lady behind the register (I believe her name is Anna) for help picking a Pinot Noir I needed to get for a party and she gave me options in several price ranges, what it would pair well with, and she called another employee to consult. Above and beyond! Definitely recommend and will be back.

I try to support black businesses as much as I can. That's why searched for a black owned liquor store to buy my Christmas presents. I ordered and paid online after searching though lots of Out of Stock items. Their website said that my order would be ready at 10:10 am. I made the 45 minute drive from Howard County. I arrived at about 12:25 pm. The store was closed and I wasn't even sure it was still in business because it badly needs a coat of paint and some sprucing up. Luckily there was another customer knocking on the door and I guess he got someone's attention because they turned the "Open" sign on and opened the door. I called to say I was outside waiting. The employee told me that they didn't have what I ordered. WHAT???? I then said I would go inside to pick up my order. I went inside and the employee was literally just starting my order. I had to choose several different items and 2 of my items were covered in dust. Then it took a LONG time for the employee to refund me for one item that I could not find a substitute for. She actually she would leave a note for the owner so that he could refund me when he got there! No thank you. I wanted my refund issued while I was there. There were other customers waiting and I kept apologizing to them for the wait. I ordered online so I would not have to wait and I ended up waiting and causing others to wait. I did not leave until 1:20 pm!That said... I would support this business again. Only because it is a black owned business. But, to the owners... You need to do better.

If you are looking for the best spirits and wines, this is the spot. A full service experience, very knowledgeable with unique brands. Many local and small brands yet full of taste. Owner is generally there handpicking the selections.

This place has been on the Hill FOREVER!!! The people are NICE in there! And, whenever you go, they are ALWAYS willing to be helpful. The prices are fine. It's really an old-school DC booze shop and I think the customer service is the reason it's still there.One time they had this cool bottle of tequila in the window and I asked about it. It was to be a gift for a friend, and it was shaped like a Mexican man with a sombrero. But when the man checked, he said it was the last bottle of it he had. It was cool looking and sort of added to the display in the window too but since I liked it, he sold it to me anyway.That is good customer service ?

I don’t go to liquor stores very often, but was pleasantly surprised when I decided to pop in here for some red wine. Hands down the most pleasant experience I’ve had in a liquor store, everyone was very friendly, honest, and when I asked for a specific type of wine at a low price point it was two seconds to find it, no judgement. I haven’t tasted the wine yet but at this point it could be terrible and I wouldn’t mind—although it was guaranteed I’ll be back for more so I’m looking forward to my glass tonight :) thanks!

Incredible options for wine and liquor. Not a huge beer selection but this place is a must for the neighborhood.

Surrounded by restaurants, bars, and other liquor shops along Barracks Row, Chat's Liquors is a no-frills, small shop with kind service and a good selection of wine, beer and other alcohol. I usually go in for the chilled white wines in the back.

Friendly staff. They do wine and liquor tasting every week. Good prices. Decent liquor collection- can be expanded more though. Would be great if they can expand their cigars collection too. I recommend buying from there if you live in the Capitol Hill/Eastern Market area.
