“The Publix Supermarket at University Parkway & Lorraine Rd in Sarasota hands down is the best place to shop in Lakewood Ranch. The staff here are professional, kind hearted, and talented. The bakery made my son a truly unique birthday cake this year; he loved it! You see he loves coca-cola, specifically diet cola from the self serve by the deli. Your bakery, from the department manager to the brilliant bakery chef minds that make dreams come true have made us Customers for life!”
“Overwhelming, because of so much inventory. Huge selection is fantastic but feels like a maze trying to look for all the places bottles can be hidden. Prices are good for normal items and 'reasonable' for some harder to find bottles.”
“Huge variety of liquor, and cigars. I found the store very pleasant as was the staff. Many different name brands and brands I haven't seen before. Will definitely buy my liquor here on return visits.”
“Absolutely loved my visit to The Seahorse ??
This little bar is pure magic. As the first registered liquor license in the area, The Seahorse isn’t just a place to grab a drink—it’s a piece of local history that still feels fresh, intimate, and full of soul. You can feel that legacy the moment you walk in, from the cozy atmosphere to the care poured into every detail.
And the drinks? Truly outstanding. Each cocktail is expertly crafted, balanced, and memorable—whether you’re going for a classic done perfectly or something a little more adventurous. It’s the kind of place where one drink turns into two, and two turns into an evening you don’t want to end. If you appreciate great drinks, genuine character, and supporting a bar that helped shape the neighborhood, The Seahorse is an absolute must. I’ll be back again and again.”
“My go to wine shop. Staff and the owner, Thomas, go above and beyond prominently what I like and send me home with wines I never thought I’d love. Honestly not a better place in town to find great wine from real people dedicated to their land. Plus there is a great little place to sit and enjoy a glass of wine, with a nice wine glass! Huge plus for me”
“Impressive selection of whisky with decent prices and some deals, with some allocated bundles and friendly staff.
On the budget end, there was JD Triple Mash and Crown Royal Northern Harvest. I found a Sagamore Manhattan Finish on clearance and could not hVe been happier.
Unusual and interesting Scotch on the shelf included a Highland Park 15 and an Old Pulteney Clipper.
Nice spot to browse and plenty of good whisky!”

“Great store. Very cool merchandise, good food and a fantastic craft beer selection. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable, even helping me look up beer on UNTAPPD. Nice vibe to hang out and enjoy food, drink and conversation. We live 30 minutes away but will be back.”
“Total Wine in Sarasota easily has the widest selection of alcoholic beverages we have found in the area.
The store is enormous, with long aisles devoted to wine, spirits, beer, sparkling wine, ready-to-drink cocktails, and many specialty products.
It is an especially good place to look for niche items that smaller stores rarely carry.
The German wine section is a good example. It includes a large selection of Rieslings, with wines from major regions such as the Mosel and Rheinhessen.
Of course, no store carries everything. I was looking for Henkell Trocken, a Riesling-based German sparkling wine, but could not find it.
When I asked a manager, he immediately recognized the product and explained that the store had carried it previously but no longer does. I appreciated his product knowledge and the clear answer.
The beer selection is equally impressive, with domestic, imported, craft, specialty, and non-alcoholic beers.
My only complaint is that the beer selection could be organized more logically.
Belgian-style abbey beers, for example, are displayed in at least four different locations, making it difficult to compare the available choices without searching several aisles and sections.
Despite that organizational issue, this is an excellent destination for anyone looking for variety.
The breadth of the selection, knowledgeable staff, and availability of unusual products make Total Wine one of the best places in Sarasota to shop for wine, beer, spirits, and alcohol-free alternatives.”
“This place showcases popular brands and specialty liquor. They even have a bar inside the store I think they use it for training classes or promo events..
It's a cool place...huge variety. They even have custom handcrafted mixed frozen drinks. Straight from like 5 big slushy mixers ...brrrrrr.. on a hot day cap a few of those self serve ,(they have cups and mandatory covers) and bring em back to the pool for your friends , they'll make you famous lol.
Drink responsibly of course.”
“This is our go-to store! We always look forward to seeing Danny with his radiant smile and kindness! They have a great selection from beers, wines, liquors and THC drinks to all the extras you need for making a great cocktail or charcuterie board!
Everyone in the store that we have interacted with has been kind, informative and helpful. Great job guys!”
“I am a big fan of Micheal’s on East and Micheal’s Cellar. We enjoy the Saturday tastings and the evening social club is always great. They have plenty of food paired with a nice variety of wine both whites and reds.”
“Big store with a great selection, including lots of mixers, cheese and meat and cracker snacks. Nice to have all of that under one roof. The only downside was I selected a bottle of liquor because it was on sale but was charged full price. I called the store the next day When I discovered this, but since it was sold out, they had no record of the fact that it was on sale. It was kind of a bummer because it was a $23 savings that I missed out on!”
“Look for their special deals. Everything that you might want very good prices. Look for special prices when you buy 2 of the same thing. Service has always been great.”

“* LONG REVIEW* PLEASE READ!
My wife and I went to this location yesterday as we had a custom preordered birthday cake to pick up. Upon arrival at the bakery, we realized that the cake they had given us was not the correct cake. Not a huge deal, but it’s our daughter’s 3rd birthday and we really wanted it to be perfect for her! So, the bakery associate called over the manager whose name is Josh. Josh immediately greeted us with a friendly approach and told us he would make everything right.
He proceeded to ask us exactly what the cake was supposed to be and my wife showed him the picture that she had originally showed the bakery before ordering the cake. Josh realized the differences and he immediately took the price tag off of the cake and said kindly, “Here, you may have this cake for FREE since we messed up the order”.
We thought to ourselves, awesome! However, Josh was not done there. Next, he stated that the bakery manager, Veronica would be in to close the bakery this evening and that she could quickly prepare our original cake for us as well, also for FREE!!
It STILL doesn’t end there… Josh and Veronica then put together a plan to hand deliver the new cake to our home!!! Talk about exceptional customer service! This type of service is the type you would expect in a 5 star high end resort or restaurant.
We were completely blown away by how well Josh (the Publix manager) and Veronica (the bakery manager) handled this specific situation. They completely went WAY ABOVE AND BEYOND to ensure that we were able to give our daughter the best birthday cake she could have ever imagined!
This experience will truly stick with me forever as I am also in the hospitality and service industry. This is EXACTLY the way a situation should be shown to new workers in training because of how perfect it was handled!!!
PUBLIX CORPORATE- Please, take notice to this very specific situation and make sure Josh and Veronica receive the proper attention they deserve for doing the absolute best they could do!!!
We cannot say thank you enough to Josh and Veronica!! We will be Publix customers for life!!
-Riley & Morgan Spangler”
“Always quick, kind and easy never a problem, great people to deal with, very easy going. Just straight up best place to buy liquor. They get everyone what they want based on very little preference info. They know what I want before I do. Lol”
“My go to place when I am on my yearly vacation in Florida! Very clean organized store offering great selection and great prices. Best of all is the family style hospitality the owners and staff give you every single time you’re in the store!”
“The prices of some items are higher than others, but they have a huge variety and carry some higher end brands that other stores this size do not. There is a whiskey they carry that I can't find anywhere else in the area.”
“I love shopping at publix, a place where you feel comfortable choosing your groceries, without much of people and traffic. The staff are always very friendly, and asks how are you, and if any help needed! I love publix!”
“Right next to where I work and I come in often. The owners are friendly and treat you like family. The store is stocked with all kinds of different things. Nice atmosphere.”
“I love PUBLIX!! You guys rock! My son came in a week before his birthday and described what kind of cake he wanted and not only did your amazing bakery staff listen to what he wanted but they built it with his exact wishes (include macaroons, blue drip, leaves and more)! There was no picture, exact premise cake in a photo book. They have an art that can’t be made with big box store cake anywhere else!”
“A big thank you to the gentleman overseeing the self checkout around 9am on 2-6-23. You noticed the BOGO on the item that I was purchasing and took the time to show me the coupon. I wouldn't have known otherwise. That level of service is why I shop here instead of other grocery stores.”
“My husband and I were delighted with the wide array of latin products that we have struggled to find elsewhere!
We have been to numerous markets and by far this market has the biggest variety. My Husband was particularly impressed with the Chorizo/Brazilian sausage selection.
I was impressed with the produce selection!
All of the staff were friendly and helpful!”

“Interesting stuff here, friendly, and decent prices!
They had BT allocations and some unusual entry-level Scotches for reasonable prices: a Glenfarclas 10, a Robert Burns Isle of Arran, and the Singleton release from Diageo's Game of Thrones series.
Also nice to see JD Triple Mash on the shelf at a good price since not everywhere carries it.”
“GREAT cust.service, very helpful about the dif. types of liquor, their specials, I go there almost every day :) hehehe ?, and same employees have been there for years, ( A rare thing these days!) I don't feel like I'm going to a store , I feel like I'm going to see my friends! Highly recommend this liquor store! ?My ONLY complaint is that they close at 9 o'clock pm!”
“Lee's is great! The staff is super helpful and friendly. Tori recently helped me with a large keg order. She was super kind and took extra steps to confirm the items I ordered would be in-stock for pick up. When I called her back she immediately knew who I was and was so on top of things, very grateful for her excellent customer service. Thanks Tori!”
“Had a situation where I bought a "meal to go" bag & it was missing items. Long story short, Lya at customer service was beyond helpful & understanding. Thank you Lya”
“They have amazing prices on beer, wine, and liquor. The selection isn't as large as other places but you can't beat the prices. The store is clean and the service is friendly.”
“Nice place to get some booze and spend some time with your family and friends and have a great time. That’s what it’s all about and doing a great job. Customer service is awesome. Keep up the great work.”
