“Great selection, and the fact that you can take your child with you and both walk out happy (myself with beer, them with pokemon cards) is outstanding. A+ in all aspects.”
“Great selection of beers and wines for any taste ✨ They also have wine/beer tasting events! And they have some seating in case if you would like to have a small gathering”
“So good! I appreciate that they have Arsenal all over the city, but nothing like trying all the variety at the cider house itself. I love the drier stuff and the broken hearts was a winner for me. My partner got a ginger one and that was also delicious. Friendly staff and nice cozy place. Outside was spacious and we were lucky enough to snag a spot by the fire pit. A Pittsburgh must.”
“They had dollar tallboys of cider. Fire. Smells like cigarettes but in a warm and comforting way. Makes you wanna leave the store quickly. Keeps you on task. Great space. High ceilings.”
“Best prices, best service.
Edit: I made this review a while ago but wanted to reiterate that this place is the only place to go for your beer needs. Prices are fair, service is exceptional. Management has made this place an 11 out of 10. Great job and continued success always. See you soon.”
“Wow. Beer nerds, I have found a gem for you. This is the best variety I've ever found, let alone in such a small place. Skill level expert. The first cooler as you walk in is full of craft Pennsylvania beer. The interior shelves hold a delightful and thorough variety of imports and other craft finds. The owner even invites you to make requests. Seriously, I was just passing through and may have never realized this place existed. You're doing yourself a favor if you make a point to stop.”

“So this is my regular wine and spirit store that I go to, it's big and spacious and always clean. The staff is always friendly and polite which creates a great shopping experience.”
“10.1 / 10. Great selection and staff recommendations are at worst solid across the board. Get to know everybody for sure and they'll give you solid heads-up.”
“Best variety of beer in the area. Also very extensive snack selection and even soda selection. Employees are always nice and helpful. Only complaint is that they don't have much cold. Most of their cold selection is macrobrews or kegs or high-end four packs. Price is pretty on par with everywhere else.”

“Great store. Huge selection of wines and spirits here. From all the mixers to the accents. Your next occasion will be off right after a visit here. The staff is friendly and helpful. Wish they were all like this. I recommend this store for anyone looking to quench a strong thirst.”
“Well worth my Uber ride from my hotel. Great selection. The guys were knowledgeable, friendly and I loved their suggestions. I went with the Troeganator and Mad Elf. Took some back to Arkansas!”
“Since moving into the Emsworth/Ben Avon/Bellevue area (2019), I have bought my ciders and hard lemonade from only Shadeland. Every person who works there is helpful, courteous, and friendly -- no doubt trickle-down from Michelle!”
“My go to for German beers, they also have a bunch of harder to find beers. The staff is very knowledgeable and the new owner is very willing to look for beers they don't have.”
“A good liquor store in a historical part of town. Over 100 years ago this place was known as Rothman's Restaurant and Bar. Here's an awesome street view image that shows what this same area looked like way back in 1909. It was famous for good whiskey and Baeuerlein Beer was on draught at that time.”
“Absolutely massive selection of craft beers, great store and easy to get to. Prices are decent, a little on the high end but expected. Worth the stop if you have the time”
“Super professional, always courteous, and the one woman ,Kris she is absolutely beautiful my son James has the biggest crush on her we work for the person who owns the building so we dee what goes on behind the scenes and its a great place”
“I was in the area and needed some Corona. The store is not that large but they use the space very wisely and have a huge selection of different beers. The staff where friendly and helpful. I will go there again when in the need for some more beer.”
“One of my favorite places for having a catalog of wines from all over the world and with a wide spectrum of prices! For all pockets!!! They have a team always willing to help and very trained! And the best thing is that every week they educate their clients for free with wine tastings where knowledge, culture, anecdotes and palate training are mixed.”

“As I get older it seems like I visit the liquor store more and more! LOL. My favorite wine and spirits store is this one in McIntyre Square. They are always well stocked, and they seem to have the most chairman select options on sale there. From my wife's box wine to my choice of Jack Daniels they have it here. Like the Village Of Pine location, they used to have wine tasting times but since covid I don't think they've brought that back. However, this location I recommend for all your liquor purchasing needs”
“Friendly folks and a great selection of beer. The gentleman spent the time to tell me about new beers they have available and make suggestions. Everything is very clean and organized, and prices were great. I'd go out of my way to shop here just for the good conversation, helpful employees, and friendly vibes.”
“Joe’s (the owner and the business) are wonderful! We live out of state, but anytime we’re in town and stop in he’s got what we need and he is such a nice guy!”
“The Pennsylvanian government operates hundreds of these stores throughout the state. At this particular location, an employee promptly greeted me when I entered the store. I easily found my two favorite wines on the shelves. They were priced reasonably. The employee accurately scanned my wines and processed my payment, and he wished me a good day.”
“Great drive thru experience!! Staff had masks and gloves. I personally had a list in my trunk, ID and credit card. They pulled my order and put payment back in trunk. NO CONTACT! Great prices and huge selection!”
“Small store in small town. Friendly folks. Parking is easy and they won't be super busy. All the staples you'll need. Had Sazerac allocated rye bourbon just sitting there, 2 bottle limit at MSRP. You can't beat that folks. Absolutely worth a stop if you need something. Recommended”
“I was able to find the various wines I wanted.I always look for the coffee/Java flavored moonshine and never see it. That's my only complaint. I found it once years ago and never again.Other than that, the store is plenty well stocked.”
“Great place. Due to my inability to carry my order. The clerk " a lovely young lady" offered to pack up my order and place it in my car. I only had to park my car in front of the store. Now that is what I call service!!”
“This might just be the smallest Wine and Spirits in Allegheny county. Just the same, they have a decent variety and you'll find most of what you're looking for. Just don't go looking for things that are exclusive to the premium collection stores and your expectation will be met. Bota box, yes. Jameson whiskey, yes. Suntory Toki even, yes. Saki, no for the most part. German resiling, mostly no. I'm sure you get the idea. Look for the standards, they'll have most. Look for something special, they won't have it.”
“I was there choosing wine for our family Christmas gathering, and there was a very nice young man who was so helpful. And they cheerfully carried my boxes out to my car.”
“This place has undergone a complete overhaul this past year and it is now my favorite. The new owner is so knowledgable about beer and is so friendly and customer focused. It's a good place and the best little beer stop you'll find.”
