“Biggest beer selection in the area and rivals the Italian Market/Bella Vista and Washington Ave. (West) places. Decent hours and clean.
Pro tip: Get a Dale's 15-Pack, it's the best bang for the buck gourmet beer.”
“Outstanding service!! Will definitely be back. Stopped in on a busy Saturday afternoon and picked something up for a gift. Jennifer kindly offered to hold the item so we wouldn’t have to carry it around while shopping and we could pick it up on the way back to our hotel. We didn’t check the hours and missed picking it up that evening and planned to wake up early and walk over before check out. Our hotel called up to the room and said that they had delivered the package to the hotel! Jennifer left a note saying she had remembered us mentioning the hotel we stayed at. In addition to the outstanding service they have an exceptional variety of niche brands for very decent prices. Will definitely return!”
“Javies has THE COLDEST beer in town. I pass 2 other distributors to go there. They have it all! Friendly staff always willing to help and are good with a chat if you like that. They have a rewards/frequent flier card you can get and earn point toward future purchases. Need I say more? TD.”
“Omg! So this place was an amazing surprise. 100% just stopped because it was on the way to a party. They have an AMAZING array of ciders! I pulled up hoping they would at least have one kind I liked and walked out wanting to buy a ton of things. I bought 3 cases. The botanical cider we got is amazing.”
“Big selection of mass and craft beers, often has limited runs, and the usual imports. Lots of refrigerated showcases including 16 oz. cans. Pricing is normal, but they run sales. Occasionally there are brewers reps and you can sample. Staff is always great, have opened a case if I just want a 6 pack. Ask first of course. Will help carry out if needed.”
“Good prices, kind staff? The only thing holding it back from a 5 is that they don't have some of the drinks I like in individual cans(they do have a large selection of singles though)”
“I've been going to Oxford Beverage for years to pick up my husband's beer and some iced teas or coffee beverages for myself. They just recently changed ownership/management and I have to say while the previous owners are wonderful people and they will be missed, the new management is top notch. They always make drink recommendations and offer to take my purchases to my car. I highly recommend this place. Keep up the good work.”
“Amazingggg
Me and my husband met the owner and he got to explain and actually teach you how to taste the wine…. I love the wine itself….. the experience was amazing,”
“Friendly staff, EXCELLENT beer selection, good vibes, and you can buy a lottery if that’s your thing. Support a local business and shop here- better prices and deals than most corporate stores too.”
“11/10 they were so great! Absolutely above and beyond. As soon as I walked in, the employee who greeted me immediately asked and found exactly what I was there for, walked it to my car and loaded it for me. I was in and out in 5 minutes and am so appreciative of the service.”

“Great selection and friendly staff, however it is definitely way overpriced and I’ve purchased *several* items from them and later found out they were expired. Just check the dates and be mindful of pricing.”

They keep a strong variety of beers local crafts, seasonal picks, and unique imports all organized and easy to browse.Their Cutwater selection really stands out. They carry way more flavors than most places, including some hard-to-find options, so there’s always something new to try. Friendly staff, fair prices, and great choices all around. Highly recommend!”
“Matthew's Beverages is always fully stocked with the party beverages I need with friendly helpful service. Nice to have a local business with extensive hours. Rocky is a smart and friendly business owner. Plus you can pick up flowers, plants, trees, and garden supplies at Secret Garden which is located at the same location.”
“I’m not from the area, but I stopped to buy some spirits before going home. I had an issue and the manager rectified it efficiently. I am very grateful. The cashier was very pleasant and helpful also. I will be back.”
“Highly recommend!! Second time I been there. They are extremely helpful and go above and beyond to make sure they have what you need and let me tell you their prices are the best in the area! They have a huge selection of different alcoholic drinks so you'll find exactly what you need. You guys were all super super helpful! Safe to say this is my new spot when I need to buy my Strawberry daiquiri seagrams escapes. You guys were all super kind nice and beyond amazing! See you guys soon! Thank you so much again for all your help, now this mama can enjoy her drinks to unwind at the end of the day! ❤️ see you guys soon!”
“About what you’d expect. Good selection. Prices felt average to slightly-above-average. I have a couple modestly cheaper places I stock up at when I can, but I would come back here for sure if I was in a pinch.”
“The Di Bruno Bottle Shop is the best bottle shop in the city and my go-to place for interesting and exciting wines. Their expert curation is unmatched. The selection is thoughtful, elevated, and never pretentious. The staff is incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and happy to help.
Whether I need the perfect dinner pairing, a standout gift, or something fun and unexpected, they always lead me to exactly the right bottle. It’s a true neighborhood gem — the kind of place I love to support because they do everything with excellence and heart.”
“They take card or cash. In the land of bullet proof glass and hood rats this place is a shining beacon for normal people who appreciate the security and cashback of using their credit cards.”

“The owner was absolutely amazing. He took the day. He took the time out of his day just to make a delivery because his employee was not able to be there. This was absolutely above and beyond because he could’ve just canceled my order and stated oh go somewhere else and make a purchase, but what he did was absolutely amazing. He took the time out of his day to make a delivery for me absolutely amazing. I wish there were more people in the world like him going above and beyond and absolutely beautiful that he was able to do that for me so if you’re seeing this, thank you I was the one that was in apartment B you were able to make the delivery for even though it was snowing and everything, you still made sure that I was OK by making up the delivery and also by giving me some free items for the inconvenience so for that, I very much thank you.”

Attentive helpful staff!
But most of all... They give my ego a boost, when they ask to see my PHOTO ID, for age verification ???”
