“I'd suggest giving Stilly's a try. It's a great alternative to Truly. The taste is phenomenal for the cleaner finer palate. It's natural. So there's no dopamine crash.
But the store... yep they'll give you a cold selection and always get you what you need. And it's easy, even if it's a full parking lot. Always great service x.”
“We just moved into the area and have greatly enjoyed our first few experiences at Fairway Liquor. Such a great selection and it was a pleasure meeting the owner, Jill. Our new go to liquor store!”
“The best Haskells I've ever been to. The staff was super friendly! The prices and selection of wine and beer are great. Even the representatives from War Pigs and Wooden Hill were awesome! We will definitely be back!”
“Elk river is a bit unique in that it restricts non-municipal liquor stores. To keep their citizens happy they have definitely made an effort to cater to recommendations and wants from their customers. Selection is pretty good with several MN based companies. I have recently been getting 1/6 kegs from the NB store and they have been great at helping me find fun and unique beers to serve in my kegerator. I will definitely continue to make purchases with them.”
“I'm from out of town and stopped by real quick to pick out a bottle of whiskey for my brother. I didn't know a good kind for Old Fashions, and an employee went out of his way to help me find something within my price range. Aaron, the manager, (Rah, Devil Dog!) rung me up at the till and was more than friendly.
Prices are very fair and the selection was pretty large from what I noticed. I'll definitely stop by the next time I'm in town.”
“Great size, clean store, & large variety to choose from. You can use your grocery Coborn's card for rewards or discounts (or so the guy asked me if I had one, and do not). Had all the things I was looking for and more.”
“Usually when I stop in I’m looking for a few things for a given recipe and never quite know where to look. Staff always either offer their help to look, check inventory at both stores, and are always welcoming when I ask for help.”
“I stopped by G-Will when I was driving through Ramsey. I went to pick up some beer for my husband and noticed a large selection of THC drinks. I have trouble sleeping and thought I would give them a try. The staff was so helpful explaining the different types and offered suggestions for me to try. I stopped in the following week, they remembered me and were so friendly! I will definitely be back when I'm in the area!”
“Very fast, efficient and most of time smiley people behind the counter and a lot of their prices on the beer are cheaper than most but they don't always have the best selection on their 40 oz”
“Stopped here on the way home to see if they carried the Bacardi seltzers or the Malibu cocktails. I ended up asking the manager and he looked them up on the computer, but they don't carry at their location. I ended up buying the Caribbean Jack margaritas and the Surfside vodka lemonades. Store has a lot of variety, clean and well organized. Friendly staff as well.”
“What an absolute GEM! Super friendly staff, allocated bourbon drawing to keep it fair (also with fair pricing), and a huge selection of anything your heart desires!
Hands down my new favorite LQ - you've got a new regular!”
“I had a great conversation with the young man at the desk - they have a great selection and the food next door at Tandor (co-owned) was fantastic. Come see us anytime at Church of the Open Door down the street. Thank you for your kindness, J. Mark”

“Standard smaller store with sensible variety. Good craft beer for the size and a decent singles wall. The employees are what make it great. Polite, helpful, upbeat. The manager (I think he is) has always been gracious and quick to break open a sampler case to allow me to try new IPA or two at a mere $2 a can. Much appreciated!”

“Everyone there is always so friendly, I drive out of the way to stop at this store. They even point out the specials or better deals during the purchase and take time to help save money and to help everyone out. Thanks!”
“I visited this liquor store on Easter Sunday, and the best part besides the fact that they were open was that the owner of the bar himself was there with his employee that was working. I find this to be super amazing because most people feel they work for the man and always have to work holidays while the owners enjoy family so it’s super awesome to see that he was there.”

“When it comes to liquor it is all about price, price, price. This is a blue, grey, and non-starched white collar luxury not a necessity. It is a toss up between Cub and G-will. It does seem that Cub is a little better on wine and have more wine specials. Cub also does better on wine closeouts. Cubs' beer prices when on sale are typical street prices. G-will does better on day to day beer street prices and is much better on beer sale prices. Also nobody has a decent price on quality NA beers. Man I miss 3.2abv. Stupid MN Leg. Hard liquor is up for grabs between the two depending on sale prices but Cub has better bottom shelf prices and some of their bottom shelf is really not bottom shelf but I am not going to point out any whiskeys for fear they would raise the bottom shelf prices.”
“This is a great little stop. They have so much to offer in such a small space. I always like to shop here. They are great about promoting their products and running different sales daily. The best part is that the proceeds go back into the community. What a great thing!”
“For a small liquor store connected to grocery and gas, this place really has an excellent selection! It's a little more pricey than other locations, but they do have some good stuff. Staff are friendly, location is super convenient.”
“Unlike any other liquor store, they already had their google hours update & changed for Christmas Eve! Only place I could find open in my area & superior service!!”

“Small liquor store right here in the north part of Champlin. This might come as a shock, but they sell alcoholic beverages here. Selections is decent for the size of the store. Prices are ok.”
“Dayton Wine & Spirits is a fantastic place to shop for drinks. They have an impressive selection of wines, spirits, and craft beers—everything from everyday favorites to harder-to-find bottles. The store is clean, well-organized, and easy to navigate, which makes browsing enjoyable.”
