BevMo!

If you say you don’t like BevMo you lie like a rug!
We picked up a few things in the event we stay home on new years eve.
Always has deals, a variety of every thing to make your drunk friends appreciate you even more.
Yep, me going a gain!

Wide selection of wine and liquor a but they didn’t have either thing I wanted. Japanese whiskey is very popular now with multiple brands winning awards. They did not have any author location. I was also looking for a German reisling and again I struck out. Parking was full and I don’t think it’s monitored. It states only for bevmo but I saw multiple people parking and not going there. There are many bevmo locations with a better selection and parking. I will instead go to those in the future.

Only complaint i have is the always changing ‘sale’ price of my go to bottle of booze of choice. One week its $ 26.99, next its $ 28.99 and the week after that $ 29.99. I dunno, what happened to $ 25.99? or $ 23.99? can we make it that again?
ok. once someone dropped a bottle right in front of me and the clerks yelled to me NOT TO MOVE until they cleaned everything up while my feet were soaked in booze and shards of glass. worse things can happen, right? i think they gave me free soda, not free alcohol. oh well.

Service from Yasmin was borderline rude. I guess only creepy, lerry, old white guys get the warm greeting and friendly service today.

I just got off the phone with BevMo. Purchased Martin Miller’s Gin there and it was close to $ 40. Didn’t seem right to me. K&L Wines in SF carries it for $ 30. So, I thought there might be a mistake and called BevMo to let them know. They said, no mistake — this is the way Corp prices it. So, beware when you buy at Bev Mo that you might be able to get the same beverage for significantly less at a local shop. K&L has my business going forward!!!

I wish the BevMo’s in Los Angeles were this good. It’s located in Jack London Square so we can pick up our libations, zoom zooms, and wham wham’s before heading back to hotel. This store is big and there is plenty of parking. I really love this store because of the snack selection they have everything you need, including cute gifts and games. I love the chips and salsa and cheese and crackers. People here are very friendly as well, never a long line.

BevMo! You are legit. I know, I know. I love indie stores, I do. However, this BevMo happens to be my closest liquor store, so what’s a girl gonna do. This location is a behemoth that sells everything and anything you could possibly need or want and at a pretty great price.
They literally stock any type of wine, liquor, beer, moonshine; they have it all. Not only do the carry pretty much any alcohol you may need, but just about anything that goes with it. Mixers, beer pong sets, birthday cards, cheese, crackers, salami, chocolates, candy, chips, salsa, queso. ANYTHING. I’m sure if you thought of something and they didn’t have it, they’d make sure to stock it.
Although BevMo is a huge chain they do stock indie enabling you still can shop local. I think they could still do more but hey, Rome wasn’t built in a day.
This place is awesome and I’m so glad it’s so close. Oh, there’s parking.

Time: 2:17pm/63°F clouds
Purpose: Came across one of Victor G’s check-​ins for a liquor shop. On his review he mention oatmeal stout. After a few compliment exchanges, I ask what would be a real good brand to get? Told me try Samuel Smith from New England.
Set-​up: Bevmo located in the waterfront section of JLS. Nearby Regal theater, Ben & Jerry’s, Yoshi’s, Subway, Waterfront Hotel, Ferry Terminal, CostPlus, Bed Bath & Beyond just to name a few places.
Staff: Came on a Friday afternoon with about 5 – 6 shoppers in the store. Overwhelmed by where to start looking, couldn’t find out where. Told worker what I was looking for and off we went in search of it. Told me very good choice and ask if its my first one? Yes, that’s right I said. Then he said there are others too, how come you chose this one? I said a friend that happens to know his stuff told me about it, (Victor G). Afterwards he went back to work, I went to pay. Friendly and all just didn’t like it when they ask personal questions. Just get me what I ask for. Don’t question me or why or how?
Cleanliness: Grade A, well organized sections easy to maneuver around, no cases or carts blocking isles. The plastic dome with cheese samples needs a good steam wash. Dome is smear with all kinds of previous samples.
Bagging It: Samuel Smith oatmeal stout $ 3.89+ tax. Smooth full body with hints of oatmeal taste. Didn’t know oatmeal stout taste so good. Consist of malt, hop, yeast and water. At $ 3.89 a bottle its a bargain. I would buy it if it was over $ 5 with a mark up somewhere, say sports venue.
Products/​Services: Liquors, wines, champagne, beer, spirits, snacks, DIY kits, mini bottles, cigars, cheese station, kegs, cups, flutes, party supplies, cold/​room temperature etc. Assistance to car if you need it.
Punch Lines: Zippy service, ID checks, knowledgeable, cheese/​chips samples, hard to find, one of a kind, limited editions, hand pick packs, in/​out no problems, nearby cafes/​restaurants, loud train horns, street/​private lot.
Tradeoffs: Individually hand pick 6-​pack cost more than buying 6 of the same itself.
Final Thoughts: So, I finally got my taste of oatmeal stout from the help of Victor. For those that don’t know your alcohol situation, I suggest you contact Victor G. He’s been around all over the map with extensive knowledge of prices and brands. Not saying he’s a alcoholic, you didn’t hear that from me. I’m just saying that he knows his stuff! As for me? I never question what he told me. Just go by word of mouth is best. Saves you time, effort and funds!

Horrible service! Ordered online. 3 employees walked by us standing at the designated pick up area and ignored us. (there was only 4 customers in the store including us) Stood there for 10 mins. And every one we came in contact was rude and unfriendly. Never again

This place has like every glass shaped drink lol.
I just want to collect all of the different kinds of soda here.
Make sure to sign up for the BevMo card.
The staff members here are super friendly.
Always ask them if they have anymore in the back.
Don’t be shy and let them know how ignorant you are when it comes to drinks.
You will learn a thing or two.
Learning is fun!

This is one of the best bevmo locations in all of the bay area. The staff is very friendly here, as soon as you walk through the door, you are greeted with a «welcome to bevmo». The staff knows a lot about what they have on hand, and Luis definitely has to be one of the best employees that they have. The selection here is just amazing, they have everything that you could ever imagine, and though I drink a little of everything that they have here, I constantly return to their beer section regularly. They have beer from all around the world, but I always come here for the local craft brews, they always have new releases in stock. Come here and spend all day trying to choose your poison, you’ll love it.

I’m simply loving the fact that there is a BevMo just steps away from where I live. This is a compact outlet with enough of a beer, wine, and spirits selection to get the job done. Because of its size, it never gets really crowded, and even when there is a line, it gets whittled down fairly fast. There’s also a dedicated parking lot right across the street.
Definitely a good choice for a quick in-​and-​out purchase.

My fave
So, this is the Bevmo I prefer… wish the one @ bayfair was more like this one. Ive been coming here for many years and have never had a problem with finding what I was looking for and have even found many new things I now have a liking for.
The employees at this location have always been so nice and helpful. They seem to have everything from, beer, liquor, wine, champagne, a great selection of cheeses and crackers, collectibles, and many things to snack on.
I will remain a happy customer of this location. The young lady who checked us out was super friendly on a holiday. Many cheers to this location!!!

What’s there not to like about this place? They have every selection known to man. I only wish they stayed open later then I could cut out going to liquor stores all together.

This isn’t the best bottle shop I’ve ever set foot in, but they offer enough variety to keep me happy. They have a wide selection of local craft beers, weird international selections, and good old standbys. I find that place to be always helpful and in good humor, as are the other clientele.
I don’t know very much about wine, but I have picked up some tasty things from time to time at the five cent sale.

This store practices bait and switch. They will take you money and not give you what you ordered.
I ordered 4 bottles of alcohol from them online to pick up at this location. One was a gift pack that came in a pretty box with glasses. 4 days after placing the order I went to pick it up only to be told they dont have the item, never had the item, and never bothered to call/​email me to let me know. They just tried to give me the wrong bottle as if nothing was wrong and when I said it wasn’t the right thing all they did was say sorry. A real flippant sorry and offer to refund the difference. How does that help? This is a gift! I want the gift pack I ordered and PAID for! They had 4 days to discover the problem and notify me. I will never shop here again, they are so dishonest!
EDIT: I will add one more star because corporate fixed the problem. But this store still has super rude and lazy employees. They had 4 days to either notify me and/​or fix the problem and chose to just ignore it and hope I wouldn’t notice. And then to be dismissive and flippant about it when I pointed it out. I’m happy I got what I paid for, but still not happy with this store.

Not my regular BevMo, but the one I go to whenever I make a pit stop over at Cost Plus which is just across the street.
Pretty decent selection of beer and wine — also has a little area for cigars if you’re into that kind of thing. Staff here has always been friendly, asking if I need assistance in finding anything or if I’m looking for any recommendations.
Nothing about the store is necessarily mind-​blowing, but neither is it a horrific experience every time I visit. Just your average beverage store.
An aside that I noted (while frustratedly trying to hunt this down): if you’re trying to shop for beer pong, PBR isn’t sold here in packs larger than 12. So if that’s your beverage of choice for the game, go to Safeway instead — though they do sell larger sizes of Budweiser and Coors (if I remember correctly).

They have a good selection here. Not as big as the BevMo in Albany, but it’s good that its here in the middle of Jack London where things can get ratchet.
Due to the many condos in this area, it houses a lot of people, so a good liquor store nearby is a total plus for the residence here.
The private parking makes this place even better because parking is difficult here!

I love BevMo. It’s like a toy store for adults. As soon as you walk in your a kid again. The staff greet you when you walk in and ask if you need help finding anything. What I also like is when you’re in an isle browsing. Any staff walking by will ask if you need help.
I always know what I want and where to find it but I love browsing their wine & liquor. What should take me less than 5 minutes takes me about 30 minutes or more. I don’t mind. I enjoy my time at BevMo. You’ll find everything you want and need.
Parking is across the street. It’s a small lot but its never packed so you’ll always find a parking spot.

If I can’t find what I am looking for at Cost Plus World Market’s wine and beverage sections, then the option is coming to BevMo, which is catty corner from Cost Plus.
My husband and I were fortunate to find a handicap parking spot in the lot across the street the other evening. We stopped in to browse at the assortment of alcohol beverages — wines, beers, ales, etc.; snacks, cheeses, candies and even Madeleine cookies.
First thing we grabbed were two bags of Angie’s Popcorn and then he was looking for something from the ales section (Samuel Adams? Sierra?), only ending up getting a bottle of Corona beer.
Me — I was looking at the different flavors of Kahlua and spotted a bottle of alcoholic beverage called… Kinky…oh, my… LOL (photos). First thought… the movie Kinky Boots… the red (red represents sex) thigh high stilleto boots that Lola (part played by Chiwetel Ejiofor) was wearing on the catwalk. Then, my other thought was sure I can have a Kinky drink to get the kinks out of my knees, my hips and my back… more LOL. The wine gift sets were fab, too… they always make a great gift and/​or door prize for those special occasions.
The only drawback I don’t like about this location — it’s right next to the railroad track (Amtrak). Chug-a-chug-choo-choo…rumble, rumble, rumble… ugh…sound travels for a long distance. Despite this noise and distraction, I will be back to BevMo to do more browsing and shopping.
