Liquor Barn-the Ultimate Party Source

Liquor Barn is still an alcoholic mecca and this specific store use to be the flag ship. I use to love coming here, but through the years it has gone down hill in my opinion. It could also be there are just 2 other big Liquor Barns that are much newer and better.
All of that being said. It is a smaller and less modern shop. I still love they fact they have tons and tons of booze, but it truly has lost its sparkle over the years. Since it is a smaller building, they don’t seem to have as many options as the other 2 (Hamburg and Beaumont). So if they didn’t spoil me to the other big Barns. I would really be ok and super happy with this specific one.
I still go here in a pinch or when I am close by.

This is truly THE ULTIMATE PARTY STORE (said in a booming echoing voice!) this is my favorite store! They have a great selection on gourmet foods and snacks and also a large selection for party supplies!

Smaller selection than the Beaumont Circle location, but still a big warehouse of booze, with lots of craft beer selections! Friendly, helpful staff … would entirely deserve a 5 if the Beaumont Circle location weren’t the most awesome liquor store anywhere!

Holy smokes, this place. On our way out of Lexington, we wanted to go some place to buy bourbons we can’t get in the ATL. A quick google search and this place popped up as the closest liquor store to where we were. Plus, we really just wanted to see a barn of liquor.
Anyway.
We walked in and although the fluorescent lighting leaves much to be desired, my jaw just dropped at this party super store. Yes, you can buy party décor here, but you can also buy every.single.thing.you.possibly.need. As I wandered in, ogling the cheese and salamis, I realized oh hey, I could get a frozen pizza. And fresh pasta. And olives. And bread. And mustard from Germany, France, or the USA. And chocolate dipped bourbon twinkies. What on earth IS this place? And why don’t we have one in Atlanta?!? And all this excitement before I started looking at the liquor…
I stumbled upon the clearance liquor first, where there was terrific selection of so many wines, liquors, and liquers. Definitely a place to shop if you’re on a budget! I was pleased to see a terrific selection of sparkling wine (YAY GRAHAM BECK ROSE!) and bourbons. While there was every moscato under the sun, I could not locate one single bottle of French rose. Boohoo. When I asked about South African wines, I got pointed to South America (*facepalm*).
We did end up with some rockin’ deals on Glenlivet gift sets and got a 5% discount for buying 6 liquors. Woohoo. Some prices were pretty good, other prices were on par with ATL pricing, or higher…

A one stop shop for both wine and beer, but don’t expect any bargains. My only complaint is having to buy mixers such as cranberry or pineapple in large cans and/​or bottles, as did see any small 4 – 6 packs for purchase.

I just want to comment on the selection of chocolate at the liquor barn in Hamburg. Obviously they have a wide selection of beer and liquor, but not a lot of people notice that they have gourmet chocolate. Truffles and Vosges chocolate (favorite flavor is the Naga bar– hints of curry and coconut. It’s amazing). They even have Scharfenburger (sp?) baking chocolate. I hope this review finds anyone who is sick and tired of being stuck with Ghirardelli at all the grocery stores.

Not a fan of these little liquor barns that look so run down. They really need to update the inside and the lights. It feels like you are walking into an old wear house in Detroit. I really like the new ones that the built. So much nicer and cleaner and so bright when you walk in. Plus the new ones have such a bigger area for the cheese and meats. They really need to update the old ones. Keep up with the times guys.

As far as Bourbon havens go, this place is a must go! 150+ different Bourbons and in a variety of sizes. Walk the section and talk to the others who are also looking for the great Bourbon find. I ran into a guy who drove up from Atlanta and was very helpful with information on a few Bourbons he’d tried. He was like me, getting several Bourbons we can’t find at home.
Actually, I found the buyers in the aisles to be more helpful than the employees…
Great wine selections and even some salted meats.
The food options were neat. C’Mon, Raos’ Italian sauce in a Liquor Barn in Lexington!
Word of advice, check out Krogers Wine & Spirits too. Not as large a selection but very aggressive pricing.

This is my least favorite Liquor Barn… It is conveniently on the way to a dry county that I frequent though. I shop here often but don’t boter to browse or ask many questions due to not so much help with options and/​or knowledge. Luckily, I know my wines very well and with 10 minutes of running through isles I can usually find a decent vintage of something for a party. … … PS… Watch for expiration dates on micro brews.

Amazing selection of beer. A definate go-​to place.
