A single employee is required to float to&fro betwixt the liquor and the grocery side of the establishment,,, locking the door to the other each time. Months have passed since the law was amended, giving these types of businesses the right to sell liquor and grocery items together. Waiting for one employee to slowly skulk between the two sides is neither quick or convenient.

Friendly, helpful local. Have a varied selection for liquor. Beer and wine selection was pretty modest in my opinion.

Oh my gosh--this place is scary! The photo on Google made it look like a reasonable place, but it is definitely not. Not a safe area either. Apparently you cant buy liquor from a regular gas station in Wichita so we were forced to find a liquor store. After leaving one scary liquor store without even getting out of the car, we drove to this place. A couple men were yelling stuff at us as we were walking in. The liquor is inside a locked room. Tons of security cameras. We had to wait for about ten terrifying minutes for the brave cashier to come unlock the door and escort us into the liquor vault. It took so long because there was a hard of hearing elderly man trying to withdraw $500 from the tiny ATM. The man working there has probably seen it all working at a place like that. This was all at 4pm on a Saturday, I cant imagine how it is at night. I probably wont be visiting Wichita anytime in the future, but if I do, I will make sure to bring enough wine.

It has basic beer and liquor. The other side has basic smokes and food items. The place is stocked decently so as far as a little corner store goes its great. What isnt great is the help. The folks who run it, especially the one main dude, are pretty dang rude and dismissive. I know they put up with a lot of human garbage on the block and in the area but still. They are rude af most of the time and this prompts me to walk on by and head further down the road to spend my money with shopkeeps i actually like.
