“This has been my go to liquor store for years now. Between the fantastic selection, outstanding customer service, and the adorable host dog, I will go out of my way to make this stop every time I come back to my hometown.”
“Cute little spot on the square with great wine and great vibes! Super nice owner and was super friendly with picking out a wine my mom and myself loved:) super laid back and you are able to bring in your own cheese for your wine! Definitely will be back!”
“The canned cocktails made here are a million catrillion times better than any other canned cocktails, period. These are comparable to a well-made drink mixed by a skilled bartender.
It’s worth the gas even to get these canned drinks, each of which provides 4 generous drinks.
Be or the most likable person on the block or in your friend group and serve these. Have the disagreeable in-laws over and pour so generously you become their fave. Or, just reward yourself!!!!!!!!”
“Killer store with an ELITE bourbon selection. Sonny knows what's up and stocks elite shelves. He also keeps 13th Colony whiskeys on hand for his super knowledgeable regulars.”
“Waterford Wine has been a wonderful partner this year to a nonprofit I work at called Gilda’s Club Wisconsin. Even as a smaller organization, their team stepped up to support our fundraising efforts by donating a private wine tasting experience for our event. It means so much to see local businesses invest in their communities and support nonprofits working to make a difference. We’re excited to offer this experience to our event guests and are grateful for their generosity and community spirit. Highly recommend supporting a local business like them instead of a big corporation!”
“We stop here almost every time we're in Madison, and have never been disappointed in the wine and liquor selections. Last time I found this attached rye whiskey. Yum!”
“This place has great oils, balsamic vinegar’s and liquor’s from all around the world. We were able to sample all different things and the staff were very nice and helpful. I recommend going here if looking for something specific or trying something new! They also have cooking classes that you can take! We did not do the cooking class but it looks like a lot of fun and they have a great space for it!”
“They don't have food so can't really rate that. But what a fun group of people! Wonderful beer selection and great crowd to watch a basketball game with!”
“Fun Local store for great wine, beer, and spirits selection. Stopped in looking for a bottle of wine - and got expert advice from the staff. Picked up 2 great bottles of wine, a couple 6 packs of local beer, and an organic gin I have been looking for for months!”
“Phenomenal store with amazing selection and unbeatable prices. If you’re a bourbon fan, this is the place to go in Madison area. Sam is an awesome dude to work with! 10 Stars!”
“Great liquor store with wide variety, and a staff of people who are helpful and honest. Its a little slice of Americana, the old privately owned stores are just set up the way they always were and you can ask questio without feeling foolish.l”
“My favorite liquor store in Madison. Great selection of bourbon & craft beer, friendly folks, neighborhood spot….what more can you ask for? Harley’s is the place to go on the East side”
“These guys came in clutch for me when I needed some sweet alcoholic drinks to celebrate a birthday for somebody. Most liquor stores are closed except for these guys. Be prepared to pay a bit more for the liquor though.”
“Very friendly and helpful staff paired with a good selection of beer, liquor, and wine. They do carry domestics as well if you’re looking for a stop much quicker than say, woodman’s. Plenty of parking available and the inside is orderly and clean - easy to find what you’re after.”
“Jesus the selection. Bourbon hunters have to stop here! Anyone semi-local. They have a lottery case upstairs. Get involved with that. Had two JD 14’s when I was there. Barrel selection galore. And overall great prices. Picked up a Penelope Wheated since it isn’t where I am yet. But damn, my wife could have sold my truck with all that I WANTED to buy.”
“Love Rocky’s. Fabulous selection of booze from wine to vodka to bourbon. Often a great place to find rate bottles. Check the display case, you’ll be impressed. Counter staff are always friendly, you can often find the owners working and you’ll love them.”
“The staff and management are amazing. They get to know there customers and are super helpful. If your looking for something specific, just ask, they may be able to get it in.”
“I never gave thought to what would be my favorite liquor store, but this place has to be it! Incredibly friendly guys that do a great job maintaining the store and product knowledgeable. Nice selection for whatever you are looking for with fun local finds. CeeCee is my favorite :)”
“I just love this liquor store the owner and the employees are freaking awesome and amazing and have the best damn prices. Check Out Rocky's Liquor Store On East Washington Across The Street From PLS??”
“Great selection! We were passing through on our way back to Nebraska. We were able to pick up a few cases of a certain beer and I got a couple bottles of tequilas not seen in our area. Extremely reasonable.”
“I was truly impressed- it was like a museum! Oh, so many colorful offerings and varieties on site. I stopped on a humbug, but if im in the area this will definitely be my go-to...”

“Woodmans is a great grocery store. However, I visited the Rivian Adventure Network that is setup there for EV charging in the NE corner of the parking lot. Had no problems with it. Didn't need the Rivian app or an account to use it. It accepts CC payment. One stall was for pulling through so it would work well for trailers. Others you had to pull into the stall. It also charges fast. It was near the max my EV could use. Only negative is that its expensive at .55 per kwh but that was also at peak. As far as I could tell, this price is only for non-Rivian EV's. It wasn't clear if they use time of use pricing. In comparison, I've seen Tesla pricing, with membership, between .25 to ~.36 per kwh (up to ~.46 without a membership). You can easily recoup the 12.99 membership cost in 3-4 charges if you take advantage of TOU pricing.”
“Everyone was nice and friendly and helpful. Got me in and out quickly. The only downside is that they need more signs on the road for the shipping and receiving department.”
“the bagel breakfast sandwich revived me every time i needed a morning pick-me-up in college. always hit the spot. the eggs are seasoned perfectly. the bagels were always soft and soaked up all the goodness of the sandwich. thank you for being a fast, reliable, filling source of breakfast over the years!”
“Wish they would open at 6am when we went rafting ...since the time is 6am is legal to sell in Cottage Grove and didnt have to mosey on over to KT.. But otherwise very good, kind, knowledgeable, helpful service.”
“LOVE what Pepsi608 is doing for the Madison community. You can count on them to be at sporting, social, and any other event in between. I love that such a major company is encouraging local participation and helping to fund excitement!”
“Works, while open. Decent selection, funky place. WI liquor stores close at 9pm. No more sales after that, unless you hit one of the many student watering holes.”
“This place is wonderful! Easy place to shop, in and out and on your way. Noticed someone else had issues with an out of state Id, I've never had issues with my Missouri ID. Their staff has seemed to always be knowledgeable enough and is pretty straightforward about what they do and don't know more about. Go Badgers!”
“Great staff. Great selection. Great ownership. Love locally run and owned businesses. These are great people. I recommend that you go there. Prices are reasonable. Parking is great. Nothing bad to say about it”
