Packy’s is good for: –mark-downs and sales on name-brand liquors –discounted promotional sets, especially after the holidays(for example, rumchata with branded glass) –carding hard Packy’s is not so good for: –help choosing a beer –help building a cocktail –any advice at all, actually In short, there are better liquor stores in Des Plaines, but if you’re looking for a deal or just want to go in, grab a macro brew, and get out, Packy’s will do.

Packy’s is an old liquor store that has been here for decades. The current owners have done their best to keep the same offerings as the original owners. Kegs and pony kegs of many brands of beers, as well as a large stock of alcohols and spirits. Since they often get a steady stream of Eastern European clientele they also offer a few brands of European brand alcohols. A star attraction would be Kapitanska vodka, their large size at 1.75L for a mere $ 27.99. Yeah its the same as any large bottle of spirits but its the bottle it comes in. Fully decorated and its size, just causes any alcohol drinker to smile. Image it having the length and girth of a 10 year old child’s leg. Yes, if you wonder, I have purchased a bottle and am waiting for a good occasion to bring it to a house party. Since Packy’s is in the burbs, they also offer a medium selection of airplane bottles. They are one of very few liquor stores that allow a discounted price on buying these in bulk. Often times these airplane bottles come in packs of ten or twelve. If buying in bulk, make sure to inquire with the clerk about the rate. Most times the owner is not there and the clerk may just charge you the price per bottle. I’ve included a few photos to entice your interest.
