“Stephan was extremely knowledgeable about the bourbon selection specifically. We took home a new bottle because of our conversation with him! Great employee.
Also obsessed with the selection of Prairie beers from OKC. Please never stop stocking those!! lol”
“In addition to a large variety of fresh (mostly wild caught) seafood, Starrs also has high quality beef, pork, and lamb racks. There is a very large selection of cheeses, wine, and alcohol of all varieties. Housemade specialties such as crab cakes and beef stroganoff are delicious! Additionally Starrs has a vast selection of specialty items in all categories. This store is a St. Louis jewel!”
“Everyone is very helpful! While the beer selection isn't as big as the wine selection they had some very good beers stocked that you might not see elsewhere.”
“I highly recommend their class. They have the best selection of anything you might need to make a great drink. The drink gift boxes are a unique and fun gift idea.”
“Great selection and such helpful friendly staff. Easy street parking in front, as well as a small parking lot in back, make a quick stop so convenient. They always have a kind word for my dog plus a treat, so it is fun to stop by when we are out for a walk. Their wine suggestions are spot on.”
“Saint Louis Hop Shop is an incredible place, not just for drinks, but for friends and community. For two years while I lived on the South side in St. Louis, I spent every Friday night there, made lifelong friends, and tried one-of-a-kind wines and beers. Hop Shop is a Saint Louis staple and I can't recommend it enough! If you live in St. Louis or if you're visiting, stop by Hop Shop for a great time and wonderful people!”
“We always make a special stop here if we are in town, love their products. Sooo much better than other oil/vinegar specialty shops. They import direct & stand behind their quality. Thanks for offering such amazing products in St. Louis.”
“I wish I had taken pictures, but there are plenty already posted. The people that work in this place were so incredibly friendly and helpful that it is absolutely unheard of these days. They have anything and everything you could ever imagine from an amazing craft beer selection to a massive whiskey area and then a huge floor full of different wines from different countries and regions. They have so many cool crackers, cheeses, snacks and candy. There are things in there that are completely one off items and some that you’ll recognize but with amazing prices. What a great place can’t wait to visit again, thank you so much you guys rock!”
“They have a really solid selection of bourbon here. Josh the manager and the rest of the staff are awesome. They had a couple bottles that were priced higher than I was willing to pay. We haggled. I picked up a couple more bottles and we worked out a really fair deal on some allocated bottles. This is a great local business that I'm glad to support.”
“Really enjoyed shopping here. Impressed with the wine selections to choose from. Gave a very fresh and exciting feel for varietals and regions from around the world.”
“Fantastic selection for both wine and cheese! The staff there is also super helpful and accommodating. Newest hidden gem in the Creve Couer area, check em’ out!!”
“Very nice. They are not only a liquor store, but there is a bar area where you can sample products or just relax and have a drink and socialize. Reasonable prices.”
“I visited the Jefferson Avenue location of Randall‘s and was blown away with the size of that location and the variety of product that they had. I’m a bourbon guy and their selections were really good. I also had done a special order through their website and was delighted on how easy it was to pick up my prepaid item no hassle no concerns. The process went very smooth.”
“Fantastic wine bar! Great neighborhood spot with wonderful selection of wines and local spirits + beers in the retail shop. Awesome vibe at the bar to enjoy a few drinks with friends. Tiffany (owner), Ken the Wine Dude, and all of the staff are friendly and helpful”
“I have been on the hunt for a place that sells organic, farm fresh produce, meat, dairy. I didn’t have enough time to really browse all the things they have in this space, but the produce I got was so fresh and tasted like real foood!!! The farm fresh cream was amazing and I’m excited to try the steaks and chicken!!! My only wish i had was that there were more places like this closer to the area where I live, but thankful there is a place like this!!”
“Absolutely the best wine store in this area! They have the best selection and the best staff. Not to mention amazing cheese selection, wine classes, and free tastings!”
“I've always loved Total Wine, great selection, helpful employees, very nice space. I shop here all the time and will continue to do so, but I was disappointed in the birthday gift. I got an email 3 days before my birthday for a special deal for my birthday, while I was out of town. Two days later it ended, the day before my birthday. I would think if they want to give you a birthday deal they would give you some time to use it!”
“This store has a wonderful variety of wine and cheese (if not obvious from the name) but also an excellently deep assortment of craft beer, liquors, mixers, aperitifs, and other specialty items for craft cocktails.”
“It's always a great experience when I stop by here. Paul & Jay are always so friendly and always have a smile. They have large selection of liquor and the store is always clean. ~Nicky”
“I live around the corner, and I feel lucky to have this shop as a neighbor. Afternoon glasses, after dinner bottles, and all variety of tasty treats are offered up by a really pleasant group of folks. I could go on, but just visit and spend a little time.”
“I have been here many, many, many times and the staff are always awesome and very helpful. They have a very good variety of things that you may be looking for as well. They also have some cool machines now available to play.”
“Very great place to come get anything you need from money orders, snacks, drinks also sell phones androids or I phone's. They fix broken phone screens as well. Very good work, quality, quick. I highly recommend!”
“The Wind Barrel is a model of what a neighborhood wine shop should be. It offers an inventory of high-quality wines at competitive prices. The staff is knowledgeable and will take the time to listen to your needs, working with you to find what you need. Most impressive is the staff's willingness to go the extra mile to find and order a wine that they don't stock.
The other day, Hannah located a wine that neither the Wine Barrel nor the larger chain retailers had in stock and got it for me within 24 hours so I could have it for an upcoming party. None of the larger stores or national chain stores were willing to do that for me.”
“The best little mom and pop corner store, owner, Pat …….—-Patrick’s Dogtown liquor’s, and my ?❤️? favorite /best uncle in the world.

“Friendly staff. Parking lot is always crowded and not close to store saw older adults parking in fire line to go into store. Store needs to purchase reserved parking spaces for their store only”
“I’m a longtime customer, but it was my first visit to this location on the Hill. I went for the Cazadores tequila tasting and tacos from Rock Star. The tacos were yummy, and I ended up purchasing one of the tequilas as a result.The staff at this - as well as the other locations - are always friendly and helpful. Randall’s marketing events and classes are always a hit for me and I try to participate as my schedule allows.One thing about Randall’s: if they don’t have a product, they will try to get it. It’s rare though, that I can’t find what I’m looking for here. And their prices are usually a bit lower than anywhere else. It’s my go-to for liquor, beer and mixes.”
“Small liquor store but has a broad selection of wines, seltzers, liquor. Also good amount of smoking items such as rolling papers & tobacco pipes. Owner is always respectful & kind. Good store”
“I've been going here for years and they have the largest selection of booze in St.Louis. Excellent options and service. As for pricing, it depends. Sometimes they have items cheaper than other stores by a few bucks, but sometimes they have items that's a dollar or so more than at another store. It just depends on the demand and availability, but, it's open all the time and not horribly overpriced like so many places.
The only issue is that it is very hard to turn into because of all the traffic on hampton and hard to get out of back on to hampton, so be careful!”
“I mean, World Market is already a fun place to shop, but I had such a great experience there yesterday! I went in to pick up some snacks for a special occasion, with only a vague idea of what I was looking for—and that's where Glen came in.
Glen was honestly the best! He took me on a full tour of the candy and snack sections, helping me narrow down what would work for my needs, and he went *above and beyond* by sharing the stories and histories behind different items. I'm exactly the right person for that, as I'm really passionate about world history and travel, so it made the experience more enjoyable.
On top of that, he showed me some practical tips—like how easy and quick it is to look up product information on the website while shopping. It seems obvious in hindsight, but I genuinely hadn't realized how useful it could be in the moment.
All in all, I had a fantastic experience! I can honestly say it was the most fun I've ever had shopping for food.
Thanks, Glen!”
