“All I have to say is that I love going to this store. Great atmosphere and my guys are super cool and down to earth. Me and my mom frequently shop here. This prices are not bad and the selection is pretty good as well. Keep doin ya thing fellas I'll be back soon lmbo.”
“5 stars! Amazing family owned liquor store with an incredible selection of wines! The staff were super helpful and knowledgeable, making it easy to pick the perfect bottle. Highly recommend checking them out for my wine needs!”
“I just wish that they were opened on Sundays. I really LOVE Eine Underground, my order is always on time, my choices are vivid, and I am happy with my delivery.”
“Discovered the Wine Bin actually looking for another wine shop - the staff was so friendly and helpful… Susie brings extra sunshine to the store as well! 🐶 Their knowledge is second to none and Dale even brought us a bottle of bubbly to a local music area, completely iced and with cups! Above and beyond! We will be back!”
“Ridgley’s Market is a great local spot! The staff is always friendly and welcoming, and the selection is excellent. Larry, the owner, is especially great—super knowledgeable and always willing to help. It’s more than just a liquor store too; it’s a mini market with a nice variety of items beyond alcohol. Highly recommend stopping in!”
“So happy I found this establishment. The Beef Suya, Fowl Chicken, and Kilishi Beef Jerky were all excellent. Customer Service was also wonderful. 10/10. Go support this business, you will not be disappointed! Thank you for the delicious meal!”
“Great local wine and spirit store. Bout a week ago (Shmurda voice)!!! I realized I was low and Sunday was nigh so I stopped by Wine and Barrel to get some spirits for my soul. Always clean. Always friendly. Always helpful and will come from behind the counter to assist. And IF (only if) something is open they are willing to allow taste test. The XXL Wine in Apple is delicious!!! 16% had my head bobbling. If you’re on Grand Central (or nah) great place to purchase your spirit groceries. Shop Local!! Be kind to one another it’s hard at here for business owners just like it is for consumers.”
“Great local shop with a wide selection of wines, beers, and spirits. Everything is well organized, and the staff are friendly and helpful with recommendations. Always a smooth, easy shopping experience—definitely my go-to in Towson.”
“Owners and staff always welcome their customers with courtesy and a pleasing demeanor. Prices are fair with an inventory that has something for every taste, palette, and wallet. Check out the beer coolers too, as they hold a small, but wide, collection of thoughtfully selected brews. This place is a valuable neighborhood gem.”
“Sometimes bourbon hunting isn' blanned... it's just meant to happen
On our wav home from DC, mv wife and I stopped in Cockeysville, MD to grab Starbucks. As luck would have it, right next door was Shawan Liquors. It honestly felt like fate was telling me to walk in.
I'm glad I did. They had an awesome selection, some incredible store picks and the staff couldn't have been
friendlier. After talking bourbon for a bit with Matt, he highly recommended I take home the Green River Full Proof Single Barrel store pick. Of course, I couldn't leave without it... and also had to grab the Peerless Double Oak.
Thanks for the warm welcome and great recommendations. I'Il definitely be stopping back the next time I'm in the area.”
“Plenty of parking, friendly and helpful staff (they will help find what you want and carry it for you), great selection and prices, and fast checkout. Highly recommend.”

“Great price’s and the owner and employee are always very kind and helpful. They look out when then can if your having a bad day. Been coming here for years he even went out of his way to get me things I like even though he says I’m almost the only one buying. Kind man kind employees”
“Absolutely fantastic experience. Small intimate shop with an amazingly curated selection. Host was very knowledgeable, gave me a recommendation to pair for a dinner I was preparing, and even offered me a sample of some open bottles that I ended up purchasing. Only complaint is I wish they were open more often so I could swing by more”
“Hood spot with cheap prices and a really great selection of things people in the are arent familiar with. Roscato Pinot Grigio...8+ dollars most places....4 dollars here”
“I've been eating here forever. I love the food. However, I suppose like everything else its gotten a bit over priced . Use to stop regular on my way home to break up the long commute... I pass on by often these days.”
“Small store. Not the biggest selection but it has its perks. Bourbons I don't normally see in pints helped begin my bourbon journey. Good price on beer and usually one of the first to have S.A Oktoberfest”
“I had an outstanding experience here and felt compelled to leave a review. From the moment I walked in, the owner went above and beyond to help me find exactly what I was looking for. He didn’t just point me in the right direction, he personally took the time to walk around the store with me and made sure I found what I needed.
What impressed me even more was what happened after I left. I realized I might have left my sunglasses in the store, so I called back. Instead of rushing me off the phone, he took the time to thoroughly check the store to see if they had been left behind. That level of customer service and genuine care is hard to find these days.
It’s refreshing to see a business where the owner truly values every customer. My experience was nothing but positive, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this store to anyone looking for a great selection and exceptional service. I’ll definitely be back!”
“Shopper's is a nice store to visit. They don't have the strongest selection of wines but they have enough. The service is good and the staff are helpful. As with the wines they don't have a string selection of beers but they have enough I would recommend this establishment.”
“This is our go to spot in Ellicott City. The selection is always spot on, the staff is super friendly and they're always great about giving recommendations.”
“Located right on the corner of Scott Washington Blvd . Reasonable priced however they didn’t have crown apple (my drink of choice ) … service was fair .also clean”
“My mom taught me about wine. “I don’t care whether you spend a dollar or a thousand on a bottle, it’s about what you like. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.” Number 2, “Find a wine store and someone who will work with you and learn your tastes over time.” What is so nice about the French Paradox is that they have a full range of wines to satisfy your palate and respect your budget. If you want a beast of a Bourdeaux, or a really nice Zinfandel from California that won’t break your budget, they have these and the range in between; the wine tastings are very well curated and showcase this. Most recently I tried the Harvey & Harriet Red Blend from Paso Robles and a week later I’m still trying to figure it out. I would not have known about this without stopping in for one of their tastings, and if I read about it I probably would have passed it over.
When I’m invited to dinner and I want to bring a really nice bottle of wine Matt and Ian have never failed to impress my hosts. “What are they serving?” “This isn’t something you’d normally buy but it will go really with…” The store also has a really interesting assortment of spirits, fresh bread, cheeses, and pastries. Gem of a store, highly recommended.”
“I was able to sample before purchasing bourbon, tequila and whiskey. I had a great conversation while enjoying the samples.
I definitely recommend Petite Cellars.”
“This is my go-to local spot. They're always stocked with what I need and I can count on my fave wines being in the fridge when I need it. I once recommended they order a new wine I liked by a local winery and they did it! It's now a mainstay and a big seller (you're welcome). The customer service is always pleasant. Love this place!”
“Needed advice on planning options for a coworker’s sendoff party. Alden and Josh were incredibly helpful and accommodating, and made the process a breeze. Great sale prices, local business, will be shopping here from now on!”
“Fair prices and friendly faces whenever I walk into this store! Owner brings a “hometown” vibe to the neighborhood. The store is always neat and orderly and has everything that I need!”
