Went there with a friend. Not only was the owner funny but he was quite knowledgeable about the different types and brands of wine and champagne. He knew quite a bit about the various spirits (vodka, bourbon, etc.) that I asked about as well. It was a pleasure to shop there. I can’t wait until my next visit to City Island!

So nice having a local liquor/wine shop on the island. It's super small & I felt a bit flustered walking in there because everything is super close together and crowded with boxes & shelves on top of one another. There is a pretty big variety for a small shop so it makes sense, I just wish I didn't have to struggle to walk around. If more than 4 people were in there at once, it would be difficult (just to give some insight on how tight it was) On a positive note- The cashier was very helpful & what I really liked was that there was a basket at the counter of $10 wines. The wine I came in to get was actually in that basket which was a total win in my book. There is also a refrigerator in the shop with some pre-chilled wines which makes it convenient if you are heading to a gathering or occasion and want to bring a cold bottle. In all honesty, if I was in a pinch and needed a bottle for something last minute, I'd come back since I am local but feeling claustrophobic while shopping isn't my favorite thing so I'd probably head to a larger shop for my day to day wine shopping.

The one-stop-shop of the island for your wine and liquor desires. Wine of pretty much any quality and price. Same with liquors, with a few hidden gems peppered about (if you like whisky look up and right when you walk in). Heavy island vibe, which is what we want here, and an owner that will make you smile. Great shop, great people, great prices.

JGL Wines & Liquors, Inc. What appears to be a small hole in the wall, happens to be a full variety mom and pop wine and liquor store. Neighborhood friendly atmosphere, fitting of the City Island eclectic vibe. Being the third person to walk in, I asked for a chilled Champagné and was directed to the black, double door large home refrigerator, used to chill their Champagnés, Prosecco's and other chilled Whites. I thought it cute having a home refrigerator. My first thought was, 'That's how you use your resources'. I loved the homey simplicity of the store and appreciated the owners suggestions when I couldn't locate a Ghost Pine - Cabernet Sauvignon. JGL houses a fairly extensive red collection as well as other varietals from what I could gather. I made my way quickly in and quickly out, as others were waiting outside for their turn to patron this cute little shop. Hours of Operation: Mon - Sat: 11:00am - 8:00pm Sunday's: 10:00am - 6:00pm

The owner of this place is adorable. Made me feel like I was his favorite customer, even though I've never been before. Customer service is not a lost art in this place. I shall return

This is a great local place on City Island. People complain about prices. What is the value of convenience? The owner is an engaging character and make a stop at JGL worth it.

High prices, small mom & pop not good selections. Other than that, Jerry is one hell of a guy!!
