“Kol Tuv is a hidden gem on Devon Ave in Chicago. It is a specialty grocery store that carries an eclectic variety of foods that cater to all different populations. They have all the items you would find in a typical grocery store plus gluten free, dairy free, kosher, gourmet etc. When you go, you must check out the selection of chocolates and candies. The staff is friendly and helpful and the store is immaculate. This store makes grocery shopping fun and exciting! Hope you love it as much as we do!”
“Absolute top tier experience, the word liquor store has the wrong connotation, these people know what they’re talking about and the speakeasy in the back is a vibe that’s the icing on the cake for the whole experience. Santana served a mean pour of G4 reposado for me that was excellent”
“This is my go to place for beer in the Skokie area. They have a wide selection along with spirits, wine, cheese and other snacks.
The staff is extremely friendly and if there's a specific beer/spirit you're looking for, they can pre-order it for you.
Swing by if you're in the area, you won't be disappointed!”
“Love their delivery service and their online ordering is super convenient and fast! Was out of stock on a few items I ordered, but they immediately called me, and we made a swap. Great fast service!”
“Great store competitive pricing. This store is impressive. Talk about organized, they also price match. National beverage is a must visit. Come on in and shop with these folks, great characteristics, friendly attitudes and always ready to crack a good joke to start of finish your day. Great store with wonderful people. Keep up the great work. You Are winning. I give this store 25 stars.”
“This store has a great spirit and wine selection. I appreciate how well they organize the wine selection. Also, I was surprised by the sought after bourbon selection.”
“This liquor store is a game-changer! They've got an amazing variety of drinks that cater to everyone's tastes, from the classics to unique finds. What's even better? The prices won't make a dent in your wallet! It's my go-to spot for quality drinks that don't cost a fortune. If you want great options at great prices, this place is a winner!”
“I've been a regular at Lyons. Very well stocked store. Prices are much better then in Chicago. Staff is friendly and knows products.
I work in Elmhurst. It's great I can stop on the way home pick up beer and whiskeys for weekends. Chicago added higher tax on booze now. This is a plus for me. Keep up great work.”
“Love Joong Boo Market. I can find great produce, Korean seasonings, seasoned seaweed, dumplings, marinated bulgogi, and so much more. It's like a mini Asian Costco.

Lovely selection of spices and sauces
Frozen section has dumplings, shumai, rice cakes, frozen dinners, desserts

A fresh dumpling shop on site
An amazing mini restaurant
Staff is always friendly and helpful
Cons
Parking lot is always full, tight corners, difficult to maneuvers
Isles are really close together, sometimes barely the width of two tiny grocery carts side by side”
“This liquor store has a wide variety of Liquors, mixed drinks and pizza, their chicken tikka pizza is very good lots of spices and flavor and their drinks are much colder than Oakton liquors, but i say that Lyons Beverage Depot and Oakton Liquors are probably the only liquor stores to go to”
“I drive 30 minutes out of my way through traffic and construction to come to this store. Enough said. Anthony is the man! He’s gotten me hard to find rums several times in the past and still works to get stuff brought into the store regularly and keeps me updated throughout the process. They have far and wide the best rum selection of any Binny’s in the area so if that’s your thing check this one out. I’ve also found Blood Oath, both chartreuse types among other really tough grabs here in limited quantities.”
“I am local and walked in looking for an experts help on the right bottle of wine. Instantly Guy provided that service. Extremely helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. It’s now my go to place I’m going to become a regular”

“I usually go to Binny’s in Lincolnwood, not ever a positive experience. We went to the binny’s in Portage Park—the staff is so friendly, and helpful. After spending $200, we walked out with smiles. This is my new place for wine and bourbon! Thank you all!!”
“While being located in Germany i placed a online order for a friend in NYC at Sal's since I can't send alcoholic beverages from Germany. I was surprised that could find a beer from our local Brewery i drink myself. Everything went pretty well, payment without any probs via credit card, customer service top notch (needed some support after the order process)! Thank you very much guys for making it possible that our friend in NYC can enjoy authentic German beer now. Great experience at all and would order again anytime! ???? Best from Germany!”

“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!”

“This is such a chill spot. I've been here twice on a weekend and the beer selection is great. The music isn't obnoxiously loud and you can actually hold a conversation without shouting at each other which is a plus.”
“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.”

“This place is a hidden gem. The staff is so friendly and knowledgeable. Even though we came in almost at closing time we weren’t rushed. We were given samples without pressure to buy. Prices are extremely reasonable and the selection is abundant. Do yourself a favor and stop in here. I wish we were local, instead of just visiting. This would definitely be our go to store.”
“Nice people unloaded fast. No parking available for trucks and don't show up when business is closed today has no turn around for trucks and Gates prevent entry for turn around until business hours.”

“This is really a paradise for wine. There are more than 300 kinds of beer in the store, and there should be more than 3,000 types of wine. It is similar to a small museum. The local and imported ones are beyond imagination, and the price is super cheap. Buy 321goose islands On average, a bottle costs US$1, and ice wine costs less than US$20.”
“I was in Des Plaines Binny’s the service and insight on some tequilas from Newton was top notch and other info from Ray was top notch. Grear friendly staff is Des Plaines. Cheers!!”
“I’ll just comment on what I know and that’s agave.
Tequila selection is amazing, incredible additive free choices.
Mezcal selection is lacking, but there’s some good choices”
“The Beer Temple has a large selection of both beers and liquors. A lot of stuff from their selection is hard to find in the Chicago land area and I strongly recommend going to The Beer Temple not only as the first time experience but as a returning customer to try upcoming brews.”
“Has a good variety of liquors and beers and all reasonably priced. Always has my beer in stock and the employees are always helpful. Recommend this place for your alcohol needs.”
“Great spot! Im not the most versed on wines and various other spirits, but this young man named Adam guided me through the best matches to my preferences. I ended up buying more than planned, but due to the confidence I felt in the options he pointed out for me. Good stuff!”
“Love this place .if you like drinking well this is your heaven .Because they have everything you need to have a good time.And if they don't. We'll ill paray for you.. ? LMAO”
