“Having lived in Japan, I always dreamed of having a Konbini in Chicago and Konbini & Kanpai made the dream a reality! They have an excellent selection of drinks ranging from non-alcoholic to alcoholic. The staff can match your palette to a drink in minutes and it will become a new favorite. I’ve hosted my birthday there a few times and the staff has always been so kind. The snacks are often ones I can’t get unless I’m in Japan so I love going there. They also have board games! Great place to hang out casually with friends, have a first or many dates, or just to pick up something for the party!”
“I've been coming here for years. They're the only store that sells an item I like so while I now live over twenty miles away, it's worth the drive.
The people who work here are helpful and kind. I never leave without thanks and good wishes -and candy that wasn't even on my list ?
Absolutely worth it.”
“Amazing, just amazing. I was looking to pick up some beer since I was going to a byob restaurant down the street and Google let me to bottles & cans. This shop reminds me of a beer shop in Syracuse, NY and it brought back so many good memories. I picked up a 4 pack from the fridge. If you aren’t looking for cold beer, it looks like you can break the cans off if you wanted to create your own pack. Staff was very nice. So much beer, cider, wine and other stuff!”
“One of the best bottle shops in Chicago especially if you're a rum / wine nerd. Super well curated and they put on regular tastings and events that are really fun. Everyone at the shop is super knowledgeable and won't steer you wrong with whatever you're looking for. Cheers!”
“I always come here for coffee in the mornings. Staff are super friendly. The place is cleaned so well. The owner really cares about this place and you can tell from how good the vibes are.”
“A true beverage superstore that I love to visit for beer, wine, or liquor. So many choices. Huge, tall, well lit. And a great tasting room as well. Easy access off of North.”
“They have great variety of liquors and alcohol and seasonal beers and wines very rare for your average corner liquor store. The cashier's are adorable and nice”
“Seriously, bow down and worship this shrine of wine & liquor. This retailer knows his product, extensively, and this is definitely the best liquor store I've been to. Perhaps one of the best stores I've been to, period. All the descriptions are beautifully hand written.”
“I love the service here they treat customers the right way this is why I like to come here some stores show no compassion towards there customers thanks again to the staff here for that”
“Friendly m, great customer service. Good selection of tobacco and other products. Good selection of beer and liquor as well.
Will definitely be back.
Highly recommend this local small-business!”
“I love Augusta! They are always so welcoming and knowledgeable. The collection feels curated and great value. I would highly recommend their wine club and stopping by for a free tasting on Thursdays!”

PLEASEEEE owners if you’re reading, the final cherry on top for this place would be selling subs/sandwiches like a bodega. Or some sort of grab and go food.”

“Lots of good alkohol brand names from all around the world. Try Jack Daniel's rye or select single barrel 131 proof. Very very smooth on front of tong and on back also. You have to take a breath first before you drink the shot or sip from glass and than brief out. Very flavor and smooth and than you will feel the heat going from mouth down to your stomach.”
“This is the first time I actually made a stop to purchase something at Gold Coast Market. I entered the market and I was interested in the selection of bottles they offered. I was a little skeptical because all of the bottles were behind the counter which was slightly disappointing because I like to scan and read labels. The stock seemed like it had better days but the gentleman behind the counter was very nice and an employee off duty stopped in looking for her sandwich. The clerk made it seem like someone took it but the shortly before the woman was to leave, the clerk revealed her food behind the counter. We All had a good laugh! So that put me in a better mood so I purchased a pint of khalua and a bottle of Tito's vodka to make white Russians. I also perused the aisles before I made my purchase and it was up to my local liquor store standards. Lots to look at and there even is deli on the west side of the street for sandwiches. Good look!”
“Love this place. They have great non-alcoholic options. They are so friendly and knowledgeable about the inventory. Extra points for supporting local vendors. I got a non-alcoholic sparkling wine, and it was a hit at Thanksgiving.”
“This place is amazing! They have a great selection of liquor and wine. The staff is great and they are all very friendly. They keep it very clean and organized and it always smells great! This is my favorite store in Lincoln park!! Check them out!”
“I brought a group of friends visiting the city to the mall for some gift shopping and this place was a sweet surprise. Piper and the other employee who's name I didn't catch provided excellent customer service and recommended some good gift choices. A bit pricey but for unique gifts I'll absolutely be bringing visitors back or visiting myself.”
“I went in looking for cachaça— hard to find, but I thought to myself, “if anywhere has it, they have it here.” Looked for a while to no avail, and although the cachaça wasn’t in the main section, the very helpful staff didn’t allow me to leave until I’d found what I was looking for, and called the owner to locate where the cachaça was and make sure I left with what I needed. Thank you!”
“Amazing selection of beers and hard liquors with good prices. This is my go to liquor store for bourbon and vodka and occasional beer. Friendly and knowledgeable staff always willing to help you find what you are looking for or just start up a chat. Give them a try if you haven't already!”
“I love this place. I’ve been going here for years and as many people have mentioned, the whiskey selection is top notch. The prices are also awesome, and the staff is so friendly every time.”
“Visited from out of town closest liquor store to my hotel. Nothing special about what you would expect an inner city liquor store to be. Price wise eh it’s fine spendy but fair.”
