Star Liquors

I’ve found old/​expired beer on the shelves many times. Manager was very unfriendly and seemed to get mad when I pointed this out.

This liquor store has been in the same strip mall for basically forever. A friend recommended it to me and since it’s near home I stopped by a couple weeks ago. Picked out $ 70 or so worth of stuff and took it to the register. The «manager» said she wanted to run my driver’s license through a scanner. I said that wasn’t happening so she waved a xerox of their «carding policy» in my face. I’ve bought booze in states from California to New York to Florida and I’ve never had anyone want to «scan my identification» before. Also, I’m in my mid fifties.
I sent an «email» (okay, look, it’s a web form – it’s only email if I can send it with my mail program) to their web site – apparently they are a chain with five stores. More than two weeks later: ringing silence. I’d be sadder about taking them off the list if it weren’t for the fact that a) they didn’t seem to have much selection, b) they were expensive and c) there are several better liquor stores within a two mile radius.
Update December 2014. Never heard a peep from them after my «email.» They’re still off the list…

Not a big fan of this store but it’s close to my house. Not many great specials and limited craft beer selection though they advertise a huge selection. Prices are higher than other stores nearby. Staff is unhelpful, not friendly and judgmental.

I like this liquor store. I have found it to have a better than average bourbon selection and the prices are fair.
