They delivered an unusual port wine that I was looking for. I was impressed by the free delivery service and easy online ordering. No surprise fees. Their overall selection looks good, but I need to see the store in person to have a complete view.

Having been in the wine business back in the 1980s, and spending as much time every day/week as I do talking about, thinking about, reading about, and shopping for Wines, I feel like I am the perfect person to make the determination that this is an amazing wine store! Great selection. Very helpful staff. Well labeled shelves. Did I mention that they have a GREAT selection and Helpful Staff!?!? Order online if you must; go to visit in person whenever you can! You will be very glad that you did!

Had a wonderful experience! The selection is really expansive and diverse. We got some really excellent advice from one of their wine experts on a good CA wine to get for a friend who grew up on French wines. Highly recommend!

One of best liquor shops in DC. Awesome collection at reasonable prices.

If you live close by Addy Bassin's MacArthur Beverages, consider yourself lucky; if you don't, consider the drive to be worth it. The selection is fantastic. Anytime I'm looking for something a bit beyond the grocery store line up, this is my go-to. From my favorite small winery in Paso Robles to Georgian qvevri wines, Addy Bassin's does not disappoint. They even had a specific brand of ginger beer I was searching for to recreate a Bermudian dark & stormy. I've been in much larger wine & liquor stores in VA and not found what I'm looking for. Staff members are all helpful and skilled, present and responsive but never pushy. I can describe what I'm looking for - beverage or occasion - and the price range and get a great recommendation. I've also found prices to be reasonable. There are also store tastings and events that I have sadly not had a chance to attend, but it's on my to-do list!

Called ahead to see if they had three liquors because I could not find one of them (Allspice Dram) in Virginia. They had all three and the one more expensive one (yellow chartreuse) was about $8 cheaper than in Virginia ABC. Parking was tricky but I found a spot. It took me longer to get on the parking internet site and set up an account than shop for what I needed! Luckily that's done for next time! When I walked in I looked around and it seemed very organized and well stocked. Someone helped me right away and I was in and out. I like this place!!

Best wine and liquor store in DC - haaaands down. I drive all the way across town to go there regularly. Unfortunately what makes it so good also makes you spend lots of $$ there because you want to buy all the good stuff at great prices. Kind of like Trader Joe's. This is the place that Robert Parker (yes, the infamous wine guru) spent his early days learning all about wine. Why do I go there? 1) Best selection. Especially European wines. 2) The wine tastings on Saturdays are the best in DC. Where else can you taste $100 wines for free, sometimes several at a time? I'll never forget a double Barolo tasting where they had 20+ wines from one of the most elite regions of the world. Or the 100-year old cognac tasting... 3) Best prices. Spanish riojas, French burgundies, heck, even the vodka is $10 cheaper than other places in town.... The only downsides are that it's far away from most people in DC (unless you're lucky enough to live in the Palisades), you end up over-spending, and it's closed on Sundays. But it's still a go-to. Tim (Italy and bourbon/scotch expert), Phil (Spain and Germany expert), and John (French and other expert) are very helpful in picking wines at whatever price range I ask.

Great selections of beer, wines, and spirits! We stopped in after lunch at nearby Kotobuki, and we ended up browsing for quite awhile. They have wines from all over the world, including France, Italy, Germany, Spain, New Zealand, and much more. If you need help choosing a wine, there are plenty of wine consultants at the store to help you out. There's a large selection of beer too from all over the globe including local breweries like DC Brau. All the spirits you can imagine, from bourbon to gin to cognac. Impressive range of whiskies from Macallan 21 year to Colonel E.H. Taylor to Redemption Barrel. The prices are very, very reasonable especially compared to some of the other liquor stores in the area. After much perusing, we ended up purchasing their last bottle of the 10 year Whistle Pig rye whiskey, which was only $73. At the ABC store in Virginia, the same bottle of Whistle Pig costs over $90. The folks here at super friendly and helpful. I'd recommend anyone looking for wine, beer, or spirits to drop by.
