Broadway Wine & Liqour

I know, I know. Everyone writes about this place as THE spot for cheap liquor — and it is! But believe it or not, I come here for the awesome affordable wine. Namely for the Torres «Sangre de Toro» blend, which is still the best under $ 10 bottle I’ve found in the 3 – 4 years since I found it, and this is the cheapest place to buy it. The have the big size bottle of it, too!
Beyond that, other wines are organized well by region, with lots of French, Italian, and Spanish choices. The South American options seem a little limited, but I’m sure you can find something good if you look. The staff is helpful and happy to suggest wines if you tell them what you like, and they’ll keep them within your price range.
I haven’t had a chance to go back and try the staff’s suggestions, but I definitely plan to.
From inside the 74^th St/​Rooosevelt (aka Jackson Heights /​Roosevelt Ave) station, take the 74^th st exit OPPOSITE the main/​atrium style exit. Turn immediately around on that corner so you’re on Broadway and you’ll be right in front of this place.

Oh Broadway Liquors… this isn’t the kind of liquor store that one goes to if they’re looking for a complex and fancypants wine. This is where you go to get the vodkas, rums and whiskeys* on the cheaps!
…Or at least on the «cheaper» than most other places. Yummy flavored Pinnacles for $ 16 – 17 a pop? Bacardi white rums are too?!
I rest my case, your honor.

This is the best liquor store by the Roosevelt Ave/​74^th Street Station. Great selection (with a recent shelving upgrade that increased their selection), nice staff (if you’re a regular), and decent prices.

Cheap, and the guy was really helpful

Soju and Korean raspberry wine for cheap. Actually everything here is less expensive than other places in the neighborhood and it’s right off the subway. It’s hard to find fault. I just wish they’d put price tags on everything so I know exactly what the price is, not that I feel like I’ve ever been overcharged for something

This liquor store is conveniently located next to the 74^th St/​Roosevelt/​Jackson Heights stop (7/​E/​F/​G/​R/​V). The service is average and they have a decent selection of wines and liquors. They have a minimum for credit card purchases and won’t budge even if you’re a nickel short of the minimum! Sheesh!

$ 8 bokbunja. Oh heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeallllllllllllz yeah.
Yes, this place is in Queens. Some people may be afraid of visiting the «other» boroughs. Those «some people» included… me.
HOWEVER, today I decided to brave the hinterlands. I ponied up and got on that «Uptown & Queens» bound train.
AND HELLO.
$ 8 bokbunja, $ 12.99 for 375 ml of Goldschlager, $ 16.99 for 750 ml of Malibu, and the list goes on and on.
This place is right off the 7, E, F, V, G, and R stop at 74^th Street and Roosevelt. That may not mean much to you, but here’s the translation for those aforementioned «some people» — it took me a little LESS than one hour roundtrip to (1) go from the 14^th Street/​6^th Avenue F train stop to the Roosevelt stop, (2) purchase multiple bottles of bokbunja and other imbibification tools, (3) go check out the pricing on a pedicure at the beauty shop nearby, and (4) take the train back to the 14^th Street/​8^th Avenue E train stop. Seriously. LESS THAN one hour. Take into account that it takes me about 25 minutes to get from my apartment to work (at the Grand Central stop), and this whole «other» boroughs prejudice is seeming mighty unwarranted at this point…
So…all in all, if you want to stock up on bokbunja and other alcoholic indulgences, do not, I repeat DO NOT, be afraid of crossing the river into one of those «other boroughs» to seek out Broadway Wine & Liquor because, trust me, your trip will be well worth it.
Hrmmm…now, after conquering Queens, what’s next? Staten Island?

This place is literally right outside the 73^rd street entrance/​exit to the subway. Five stars for convenience for sure, and as Julie noted, great hours to boot. The prices are fine, especially when at 11 PM en route to a friend’s dinner/​boozeathon, you realize you need something to bring so you don’t look like a mooching lush.

*Open until Midnight (it’s on the Business Card)*
EVERYDAY!
oh! until 8pm on Sunday.
few weeks ago, I was trying to buy Soju at regular market to make Yogurt Soju cocktail.
(I didn’t know there’s different rule about buying liquor in New York. Hey! I came from CA, and you can buy anything at market.)
Joolie T. told me, she couldn’t find it at Han ah ruem in Manhathan. so I went to another Korean market in Jackson Heights. friendly cashier lady told me, I needed to go to Broadway Liquor for it.
stepped in Broadway Liquor. @.@
could find Soju, of course, Bokboonja (Raspberry Wine — Maria M.‘s favorite), Maesilju (Plum Wine), OB Beer. etc.
going back for my event on this coming Friday.
If you want, I can teach you which one you need to get for being a drunken Korean.
Just let me know. =P
