Love Liquors & Wines

Came here to grab two bottles of wine right as they were closing. Spoke with the owner and he helped pick out a bottle of red and white. As I was checking out realized I had no cash on me and he was kind enough to stay open as I ran to the ATM to get cash.

They have a good selection of liquors and a so-so selection of wines. I did buy a $25 bottle of bordeaux and it was corked, but they were good about letting me exchange for another bottle. I would go back.

today, october 1, 2010, after an in store tasting, I purchased my first bottle of spiced rum and within ten minutes of leaving the store the bag carrying the bottle broke and the glass shattered everywhere. When i returned to the liquor store located at 797 Washington Avenue, Brooklyn, New York, the store owner Thomas Walsh rudely refused to replace the bottle which i had just paid $26 for and forced me to walk back another 25 minutes to retrieve the broken bottle top which i had left amongst the broken glass on the sidewalk. I was completely enraged. I had just come from a long day of physical labor and needed to unwind and this totally ruined my day. I do not make a lot of money so for me to waste my money and energy on a simple bottle of rum that I already felt was overpriced is completely disheartening.

This is a great place for wines, with more variety than the other ones near by.

However, I have passed 2 days in a row in front of the store and it was closed. It would great and appreciated if the opening hours would be posted somewhere!!!
