Exceptional package store. Knowledgeable and kind staff led by Joe… Who is now a movie star with his cameo in the fine film“The Holdovers”

I miss this place so much after moving away from Beacon Hill. I always got great advice and fine wine here at value. I was pleasantly shocked to see a cameo of both the store and a salesman (who I purchased from for many years) in "The Holdovers." Bravo gentlemen. Keep up the great work.

Whenever I'm in Boston, I have to stop at this place. Incredible wine selection in the basement at a decent price considering the wine. I've bought several 30+ year-old vintages over the years at that place, and they were always still very good, which tells me that the incredibly kind staff here knows what they are doing (and buying).

Really nice of Peter to give us a tour and share some of his experiences. Highly recommend this store for wine and spirits.

Very knowledgeable & helpful folks run the place. Almost every Wednesday they have introductory or exploratory presentations & tastings of particular wines. For city folks (unless you're out in Dorchester or South End or S. Boston...) their location couldn't be more central- very fine place to frequent!

Massive selection of wine in the basement with a very kind staff. This is a proper wine cellar.

Fantastic selection of wine. Very knowledgeable of their stock and where in the store it's located.

Great selection of wine and scotch. Allows for single beers. Friendly staff, but outdated POS (no digital payment options like Apple or Google Pay) really cramped at the register as well.

Came in looking for cooking sherry for a French onion soup. The gentlemen behind the counter explained the different varieties of Sherry, and helped me select a really fantastic sherry that produced a top-tier soup. Boutique service at a very reasonable price, these guys just try harder than other shops and they've earned my loyalty as a customer.

Not sure if I came across the owner or manager but he was a gentleman and the price of the 6pack I purchased was actually less than Target a major store which for the location I was very impressed by. When asked the owner told me we don’t try to overcharge and keep customers happy which is They sell single IPAs as well, I’ll be back for sure gotta support these honest local businesses.

Oenophiles look no further. While I believe this place is no longer a hidden gem, you need to invest your time here for carefully selected drops and lots of great stories. My new go to anytime I am in Boston now.

Fantastic experience at Federal Wine & Spirits. The two gentlemen working during my visit were friendly and extremely knowledgeable. Their wine cellars downstairs are filled with gems, and the prices are extremely reasonable. Definitely recommend

Great location and close to where I stayed. They also offer delivery service which is very convenient. Price is really good and comparable to other places but not much varieties available.
