Wheatley Hills Discount Liquor

Hmmmm... The same liquor store that reasonably sold me a rare bottle of bourbon for only 3x its suggested retail price (I paid 500 for 750 ml of booze, yes, I'm dumb) in 2014 now wants upwards of 2000 for the same bottle. And they want 600 for a 75 dollar bottle. I used this store for every party, every get together, every time I needed to bring a nice bottle of wine somewhere, in short, every time I needed to buy liquor. Their fairness inspired my loyalty.

Their greed has inspired my decision to take my business to one of the hundreds of other liquor stores in the 10 mile radius around them. Now, not only will I never set foot in there again but I hope their nasty, greedy, price gouging manager trips while carrying those bottles up front on Friday and breaks all 7 of them that he wants to charge around 11 grand for.

It's a liquor store, not the black market. But try telling them that.

Wow. The manager isn't just a nasty person but he's turned into a really, seriously greedy A-Hole.

Good wine selection, especially for the cheap wines, they have some great bottles under $ 10, and good prices for the rest, can't complain

The store is nicely kept and has a wonderful selection. I have been patronizing it for years and have never encountered rude or unhelpful staff. When recently buying a case of wine, the owner took the time to find a $24 dollar rebate that I had NO IDEA about. My personal experience with this retailer is consistently positive - and I always tip the guys carrying anything to my truck.

I have been shopping here for nearly 10 years. Best prices on Long Island. Also a very good selection of liquors, and if you're interested in something they don't have they'll consider stocking it.

The only real shortcoming is the average (at best) wine selection that generally includes only low- and medium-priced vintages. But for liquor, by far the best around.

The staff are helpful when 1) you treat them like human beings and 2) when you get to know them a little.
