Quiet and nice. The guy gave me a discount on the price of a 4 pack. Cute little place
Awesome cashiers. Quaint & personal service.
Small spot with GREAT prices staff is friendly
Best selection of craft brews in downtown New Haven and wide variety of wines
This Chapel West store has high and unfair prices. BEVERAGE BOSS is the ONLY Store in New Haven, who has The LOWEST PRICES in town, plus good customer service.
They were great! Stayed open for us even though it was past closing time!!
New ownership good prices once the cooler is in a lot more selection my new spot
Dear Yale Community,I visited New Haven for my class reunion in May (SM 1997). Going “old school” and having a little party in the dorms, the liquor I brought from NYC to New Haven was gone in one night. Good times. On foot, we came to Gag Jr.s Liqour Shop at 1183 Chapel Street (near Dunkin Donuts).I entered the store with my college buddy and my sister – who was along for the experience from California. When I saw the price of a bottle of vodka, increased well above even NYC standards, I said, “That’s ridiculous.” Perhaps that was a bit aggressive but that was nothing compared to what happened next.The Owner – who happens to also be the cashier – screamed at me with such I vigor that I thought he might pull a rifle from behind the counter. He was bullying and nearly violent.I left the store but my friend and sister remained behind. This is where the conversation gets interesting. The Owner told my companions that Yale people are arrogant, disrespectful and basically that he could not stand us and our apparent righteousness. My friend reminded him that I had spent a lot of money there over the years. Suddenly I remembered why I stopped making my purchases at this location: in 1997 he yelled and screamed at me in the same frightening manner when I said something about prices suddenly going upon $5 in less than a week.HE OPENLY ADMITTED THAT HE INCREASES PRICES during reunions to my friends. I think this is despicable. And I certainly believe he does this for The Game and other major Yale events. I suggest Yale and it’s community members steer clear of this business. He hates Yalies anyhow – so why even bother?
Solid place that feels like home. Great selection and happy faces make for the best shopping experience in the area
The owners either smoke very heavily or even smoke inside the store. Regardless, whenever I go here, I can always smell very heavy cigarette smoke and I think its super inconsiderate. They should make sure the air is clean inside the shop.
Good people running this place
Prices are a bit high on craft brews, but the place is clean and the staff seems to know whats up.
It is ok
Great small shop!
Expensive but centrally located and a decent selection.
Poor beer selection & to expensive.
