Benash Liquor Store

If you’ve ever wondered what it would be like if your family ran a liquor store, just stop by Benash. Dad is loading beer into the fridge, the big bro is roaming the store assisting customers, ma takes care of the books, and even grandma gets in on the game — she runs the cash register.
Benash has been around forever, and to be honest, I’ve usually bypassed it for the giant Total Wine around the corner. However, Benash has some family-​style features you just won’t get anywhere else, including a discount table in the back and complimentary mints in the front. Plus, it’s often easier to get to from the circle, which counts for a lot when you’re in a time pinch.
Don’t expect everything under the sun, but there’s still a solid selection. Plus you get the added fun of speculating about the family business, and who doesn’t enjoy a shop with a story?

It’s an okay option when I am headed home and do not want to go out of my way. The wine selection is very small and nothing special unless you are looking for moscato or riesling. If you are looking for standard domestic beers they have them in the back refrigerator which is convenient. Last time i visited they did have Spellbound IPA which is good to know, but it was not refrigerated. The liquor selection is their best asset being they have lots of brands, different flavors for each, and the prices aren’t terrible. Again, I only shop here if I’m on my way home and do not feel like going out of my way. I would imagine it’s a nice option if you are going to a BYOB and need a refrigerated 6 pack.
The employee presence is missing except at the register. I have searched for 15 minutes or longer without being acknowledged by anyone especially in their barely there wine section.

Not all liquor stores are created equal and Benash was created with the customer in mind. This place is walking distance from my home in The Hill, all of 3 minutes from door to door, which adds to my affinity of it.
When you walk in, the door is automatic, so pulling or pushing to get into this place. The big wide square room is well lit and there are signs on each shelf section so that it’s easy to find exactly what you’re looking for. If you can imagine row upon row of toxic goodness without trying hard to find what you need, you’ve got it.
Benash has all of your regulars like Hennysey and Absolut, but also brands you’ve never heard of and neat new beers and trends. There’s a wide range of beers for different tastes, and I appreciate that because I’ve just become a real beer drink. Still in the experimental phase, but they help me to experiment here at Benash.
From a price standpoint, they’ve got enough to fit any budget. So that’s great or a day when the wallet’s a little thin and the bank’s a little bit broken.
The people are nice and though I’ve only been in the area half a year, and mostly got on the weekends, I’m a recognized regular. Had more conversations here at this little spirit store than anywhere in all my life.

Benash Liquor Store is located on the Route 38 circle, which makes it a great place to stop on your way into the city via the Ben Franklin. There is plenty of parking in front of the store.
Benash is smaller then a lot of its competition in Cherry Hill. That being said– it still has a GREAT selection, and way more personalized attention and service. Keep in mind– this is not a mega warehouse with 30 foot ceilings, instead its a locally run small business.
Like all NJ Liquor stores, Benash sells all your needs in one place: wine, beer, rum, vodka– you name it, they’ve got it. The majority of the stock is room temperature, but they do have select items in fridges.
Benash runs sales on different products, and even has a discount table which I suggest checking out.
Support small business– shop at Benash!

SOLID ownership and staff. Cannot stress enough how great the people who work here are. So nice, and helpful too so don’t hesitate to ask should you need advice. Prices slightly higher than the big box stores but with the competitions attitude you are better off here where they care! Good selection. They have your standard party accessories for grab and go fun, lottery, soda and let’s not forget the scratch and dent section for that last minute dinner party you have no desire to attend. Local landmark for good reason.

Super friendly staff, always! Knowledge too. I love trying new beers and wines and they know their stuff. Even the history of certain drinks (why hot toddies work and how they were used back in the day). Prices are good, variety is A+. I’m just sad their well known sign got knocked down. Ugh

This is a place with great ownership. I was looking for a specific beer (Game of Thrones) and the owner called me and left a voicemail letting me know when it was delivered. He even put one aside for me. That gesture left a big impression on me and I will never go to any other store! Their prices are competitive and they have a unique beer selection. Love this place
