I live in Tucson Arizona and I called Mahtomedi liquor barrel to get a bottle for my brother-in-law who lives in Minnesota in Mahtomedi. The staff at the store we are amazing at the knowledge on their alcohol, and had the best customer service I have ever seen. They really deserve a pat on the back!i if you’re looking for any liquor store to go to this is the ONE in Mahtomedi. THANKS guys!

The people here are the best. Just saying.

I am disabled….store personnel ALWAYS helpful with heavy packages…in store and carry to car…Good selection and prices…but I drive by 4 other liquor stores to come here for service !

Excellent service and selection. They are always happy to go the extra mile for their customers. Great prices as well.

These guys are cool and act like they like their job.

Great selection! Very helpful and knowledgeable staff. Got a question, just ask!

Great selection of bourbon and scotch. Helpful staff

This is a great local neighborhood liquor store. The staff is knowledgeable, and will provide excellent guidance on such things as wine pairing. Prices on wine are just a reasonable as can be found at the large chain liquor stores. With friendly knowledgeable staff, as well as a nice selection of wine and liquors at reasonable prices you cant go wrong to shop here.

Always a pleasure doing business, friendly and helpful.

Best place for liquor and wine enthusiasts anywhere. Staff is almost absurdly educated and kind, and will absolutely talk shop and teach folks if theyre interested. Every single recommendation has been spot on, and their prices are more than reasonable. 12/10, would always recommend

Love this place. Super friendly people that work there!!

When after work to get some drinks to enjoy them when I get home. cashier was very rude took my id and instead of handing it back to me respectfully he threw it on the counter. What a respectable person (not)

Friendly and helpful staff. Great selection of beers. I work all over the metro area and stop in at liquor stores all over the twin cities and this is one in my top 3 stores to frequent. (Great selection of my favorite beer brand- The Brewing Projekt! )

Super friendly and helpful staff.

Always helpful and considerate.

Love this store. Incredible prices and even better staff. Theyre all so knowledgeable and willing to look into special orders. I dont buy from anyone else

Very friendly staff. Very knowledgeable and helpful too. Will definitely visit again.

Good people good prices good service

They had a rare find thats only seasonal. I called they had it and I went and picked up 2 bottles! The staff are great and we will definitely be back!!

Great employees and friendly customer atmosphere

Very knowledgeable staff, very friendly and helpful. And I dont mind spending a few dollars more, instead of going to the big box store.

Always have new items

The. Best. Seriously, they really know their stuff, just ask for some help and youll get it!

I Love them after work! In and out!

This place has the best prices in this area

What I like best about this place is they always give ya a friendly hello when ya walk in

Love this liquor store. I struggled for a long time finding one that had good prices and selection when I moved to Oakdale, and this one delivers.

Many selections an service with a smile

I love this store. The friendliest staff ever. The owner is there often and has a lot of knowledge about liquor, beer, and wine.

My favorite liquor store in the White Bear Lake area by far. Great staff, selection and prices. Eric and everyone are always there to help you and recommend something. Nice wine selection too at great prices and a better whiskey selection than you might expect for the neighborhood store. Highly recommend shopping there if youre in the area.

Great folks, very knowledgeable. Lots of choices and reasonable prices. A great place to pick up a beverage or three.

The earlier reviews 3 years before this are seriously outdated. I was shocked to read them. Ive lived in Minnesota for less than 3 months and one of my ventures at first was trying to find a good place to buy my spirits. Ive tried them all within a descent radius and Liquor Barrel has been my absolute favorite. I feel wrong for going anywhere else because this location has won my loyalty again and again. The prices are very reasonable and yes the service is fantastic. Im never not met with a genuine welcome and never not departed with a social good bye. They are always willing to help me in a professional manner. Im not sure what condition this building was in 3 years ago. But today it is a pleasant experience.

Did not go

Staff is always pleasant and helpful. Good prices, especially during sales. If you cant find what youre looking for, Eric will make sure you get it. And, there are frequently a yellow Lab or two should you feel the need to pet a dog.

I buy a fair amount of wine and have shopped at many stores in the area over there years. Bottom line - this store takes good care of their wines. Ive never bought a bad bottle there. Prices are better than average, and they maintain a good selection of decent wines priced below market. Beer selection is also generally good. This place is my mainstay.

Friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff members. Clean and open aisles, easy to navigate through. Large selection for the discerning buyer.

Very nice selection of beer and hard liquor, did not check the wine selection. Staff was very friendly and got a box for me to carry my loose items. I do intend to stop here in the future for all the awesome beers they carry.

Courteous staff, well stocked and fair pricing

Friendly place with easy call in and curb side pick up.

I had been doing curbside pu with a liqour store in north saint paul and was very pleased until I called Saturday and they said they are no longer offering that service, with covid we dont go into any establishment, which I expressed they said well call back later. I spent alot each order. So i started to look for options and found liqour Barrel, taaaa daaaa! They had everything we needed, platinum customer service. Im so looking forward to doing future orders with them. They even offer home delivery.Thank you so much for the friendly and superior service

My wife and I used Liquor Barrel, Mahtomedi for our wedding. They were hands down the best out of everyone we worked with during our wedding. From ordering to delivery, everything went so smooth. We greatly appreciate Eric and his team! Best in the business!

Very friendly staff and a good selection of liquor.

Kind of place that makes you feel like you are personal friends of the owner. More likely then not if you have been in a few times they will call you by name and remember what you buy. Absolutely a strongest 5 star I ever give.

This local liquor store is friendly, convenient, well-lit, and well-stocked. The staff are helpful and knowledgeable about their product. The prices are competitive compared to the big box stores and Eric is always willing to help with a wine purchase.

Great place

Exceptional staff. Always go out of my way to make sure to stop in here. Great prices knowledgeable staff a home run for all your needs.

Best hometown liquor store. Dog friendly and always give my puppy treats. The liquor selection is always satisfying and staff has great knowledge.

Fun and polite employees, know what they’re talking about and best local prices!

Friendly people, great prices and selections. Locally owned, active in the community.

WoW! Great experience! Very helpful and knowledgeable employees. Found out the owner of the store is very active in the community. Love to shop locally and help small family businesses. This is one of the best experiences that i have come across at a liquor store, every employee seemed to enjoy the work they do, and that says a lot. VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Prices lower than any in town!!!!

Everything was easy to find. The employee was helpful and kind.

If they dont have what you want, they can it, but they will have it.

I love the awesome dogs walking around welcoming everyone! The staff are great people as well! I highly recommend this place i had a great time shoping here!

We found some good wine here! The owner gave us some really good suggestions!

I Absolutely love this place. The staff are super friendly and know everything from beer to wine! This is the best liquor store around hands down! Check them out for yourself you wont be sorry!

They will always treat you like a friend

Love the friendly staff and the amazing selection. For the area you cannot beat their prices! Love it here.

The kind of place that makes you want to go home and write a 5 star review after a random visit. Friendliest staff. Selection rivals much larger stores, and are they open to, if not encourage, special orders. Everyday prices of the few items I picked up all beat TW, and sale prices made me buy more than what I went in for. A must stop spot if you are in the area, and highly recommended if you are just driving by (also stop in for some amazing tacos across the parking lot!)

Great place, great staff, great prices, and great selection. If they dont have it they will order it for you!

Great pricing and wonderful selection.

Always friendly staff and knowledgeable about their beer. I always enjoy stopping in there when I am in the area.

Great people and prices!! Excited to be a new customer!

Very helpful

This has been my favorite liquor store in WBL area for 14 years. Eric, Mike and the rest of the staff are always knowledgeable, friendly, give great service & recommendations. They take great pride in currating the wine, beer and liquor selections and pricing is always better than other local stores. Thank you Eric for running such a great show.
