Murray Scholls Liquor Store

Thanks for closing 3 minutes early as I pulled in front of the store. Nice to see you lifting a glass with the lights out. Poor business practices.

Bright, cheerful, clean, colorful, friendly. Good prices on name-​brand copycats. Literally as good as it gets. None of that «dereliction» aura of many liquor stores. You could be in a vitamin shop for gosh sake. My go-​to for festive toddy fixin’s.

I was happy when the Murrayhill Liquor store opened because it was closer to my house. But after going there a few times I realized that the manager was rude and they do not allow employees to double bag if more than one bottle is purchased which keeps the bottles from clinking together on the ride home.
Even though Progress is farther away, they are friendlier. I will drive the extra miles for friendlier service.

I searched Unilocal for the best natural and organic grocery stores and there it was, Murray Scholls Liquor Store! At first I was very confused. What kind of alcohol are they selling? Will it reduce blood pressure? Can I drink the stuff with my medications? Will I lose weight? Is their alcohol high in antioxidants? I was getting excited! Maybe I could drink myself healthy! What a let down it was when I saw the tiny little yellow icon that said ‘AD’. I’m giving it 5 stars because it wouldn’t be fair to give them 1 star. I don’t drink and I would never shop there. However in my opinion, it isn’t appropriate to advertise a liquor store with listings for natural, organic foods. It just seems wrong and misleading. Perhaps we could hold Unilocal responsible for that but it’s likely that the liquor store has say in where their ads appear.

FOR YEARS my mom and I kept saying someone needed to put a liquor store on this side of town and FINALLY someone listened! This liquor store is Woohoo! As good as it gets! and here’s why:
ATMOSPHERE: Yes, atmosphere at a liquor store, no joke. It’s bright since it is on the corner and has tons of windows. Unlike other liquor stores where you feel like you are walking into a cave from the 70’s where no one wants to be seen, this place offers a clean, well lit, open shopping experience.
SELECTION: Plenty of choice in my opinion, but I am not a liquor expert. They have a lot of the good stuff that I like to buy as gifts and then my go-​to mid-​shelf selections as well. They do have ice now (yay!) and a pretty decent selection for mixers.
SIZE: Big enough to have a lot of selection and small enough to actually find your vodka.
SERVICE: Friendly and efficient. Never had a bad experience.
LOCATION: In between the boonies and the metropolis that is Murray Hill Blvd. Perfect!
The only negative: parking. I hate this parking lot. But it beats having to drive all the way in to town to get, again, my vodka.
Review in one sentence: If you need liquor, go here.

Super nice place. Well lit, friendly help, and I like the special section for all the locally distilled options.
Given that I think all OLCC stores have the same selection and prices it’s hard to see sometimes why one is better than another.
This one happens to be super convenient for me and the fact that it’s nice is a great bonus.

Nicer than expected for Oregon liquor stores.
Five stars for a nice location that’s added a much needed quality liquor store to the Murray Hill area.
I don’t feel as though you are being watched like the one on Barbur.
Well organized. Better than average selection of luxury liquors.

I’ve been there about 6 – 7 times and the staff are fantastic. Both the woman and man that work there are fantastic with customers. It feels like you’re shopping at a friends store, honestly. Great selection, EXTREMELY clean store (what is with liquor stores feeling kind of dirty??) and fantastic staff. Best liquor store I’ve ever been to, period.

Great selection, best in the area. The Hall liquor store is closest to me, small, but good for the basics. I USUALLY drive out of the way to the Canyon Rd Beaverton liquor location because the service is so great and friendly service. However if I’m trying to find something new, I will go here now.
This store has a dedicated isle to each main liquor type, 10+ types of bitters, juices fairly priced, isle of liquors… Etc. I was surprised to find things I haven’t seen before like the local Rogue Spirits line and Pinnacle Cherry Lemonade vodka. Surprisingly, they didn’t have what I came for though, a half gallon of Black Heart Spiced Rum. They did have Sailor Jerry’s and Captain Morgan though which are pretty much the same thing.
Will definitely be back when I feel like testing out a few types of Absinthe or Limoncello or a specific liquor. I’m sure they’ll have whatever a bartender might need – or something close to it.
