Liquor Depot of Simsbury

I give this store zero stars!!! First off they will not serve to older people if they dont have ID and are nit driving this is stupid unlessthat older person (obviously of age has a rare Benjamin Button disorder) stupid clearly they can drink. As well as when, i, myself went in. I am 28 years if age was not driving and walked in looking for someone to help me find something, there was NO ONE then the manager walked in with his creepy hair and glasses and I ask him if anyone can help me, he immediately says to me, you are so drunk I’m calling the cops… ummm wow dude you’ve never seen me and I was SOBER thank you have lost half of all your business ass!!! Place should be shut down just because everyone is rude and miserable!!!

Prices have been going up steadily and no longer better prices. Some of the managers are rude and not appreciative of long time loyal customers — they don’t know their customers.

Very good place to get beer, liquor or wine. They have a large selection of regular and craft beer, all types of wine, and a full aisle of liquor. The staff is always pretty helpful. You can make your own six packs here too which is a plus.

Large selection, good prices, friendly workers and a fast check out. Easy in and easy out although I could have spent more time there bc of the large selection!

Definitely my favorite package store. The staff is always helpful and friendly. Their selection is vast and their prices are competitive. A++

Great prices, good selection, helpful staff. I make a special trip from West Hartford just for this store… they always have incredible specials on really drinkable wines.

I am from Scotland (United Kingdom), I am 24 and live and work in CT. I have purchased alcohol from The Liquor Depot before with a manager always double checking my UK drivers license since it is unfamiliar to the till attendant.
This time, the till attendant went away to double check with the manager, she returned, apologized and said the manager said she could not serve me. I then asked to speak to the manager.
The manager came over and when asked why I could not buy alcohol, replied «I haven’t seen this type of license before, I’m not selling you anything». I questioned this again and was told «I don’t sell if it’s a license I don’t recognize, I refused to serve someone from Texas last week because I haven’t seen a Texas license before.»
We commented that this probably wasn’t company policy and doesn’t seem a great way to conduct business. As me and my friend walked out of the shop the manager followed us out of the shop and stared at us as we got into the car (which I was able to rent with my UK driver’s license) and drove away.
Not particularly bothered about not being sold alcohol, we drove somewhere else 5 minutes away to buy some — the attitude of the manager was disgraceful and safe to say I will not be returning to The Liquor Depot again.

Possibly the closest liquor store to where I live. Happily, they almost always have what we want at a good price.
They have a vast beer selection, and have a nice practice of selling quite a bit of different individual beers both refrigerated or not. Today I picked up a single bottle of Pranqster, a Belgian Golden Ale that intrigued me.
We specifically came in today to see if they carried a new line of Hard Cider by the good beermakers at Stella Artois. We looked somewhere else last week and didn’t find it. We looked here and found it right away.
Its a big comfy well lit store. Very spacious without the cramped clogged aisles you see in some liquor stores. People are friendly here, and you can score the occasional beer or wine tasting if you hit it on the right night.
We are very happy with what we call «our liquor store».

overall the beer selection was OK, not completely over the top but better than most smaller stores — lots of stuff you expect to see and sadly the «gluten free beer» section was ²⁄₃ hard cider — which is not beer and made me sad.

I found a bottle of Port Charlotte PC 6 here that runs around $ 150 without shipping if you order it directly from the UK. At Table & Vine (my normal go-​to whisky stop) it costs around $ 130. Today, at Liquor Depot, I paid $ 100. I warn you, if you find these sorts of deals irresistible you may walk out paradoxically a few hundred dollars poorer and richer at the same time. State minimum pricing. Sweet whisky selection. I’m not a big wine guy, but most of their store is actually wine and if their vino selection is as thoughtful as their Scotch selection is, then you’re in luck.
Note: they also have a handful of delicious sip worthy stock behind the register to peruse before making your final selection.
