Butler’s Wine & Spirits

The only liquor store I go to! it’s my favorite and is so convenient. you usually do not need to wait in line to cash out and the staff is friendly and helpful! the store is fairly large and laid out well, each section is labeled with what it contains but wine is mostly on the left and in the middle with liquor on the right side. the back has coolers for cold beverages which is also highly convenient.
There are also always deals going on for a variety of items and you can get deals sent to your E-​mail. I’m always able to find what I need when I go to Butler’s and I have no complaints!

Products are well organized with LOADS of incredible deals. They have a whole corner of the store dedicated to $ 6 wine! I’m praying that it’s an all the time sale (it looks like it is) and this corner is what will be supplying my wine needs for the foreseeable future. Located on the corner of Sheridan Drive and Delaware Road, right next to an Aldi and Tops, Butler’s places your liquor store needs amongst your standard errands, where it belongs.
I’ve always found everything I needed, staff is kind and helpful, booze is affordable and well organized, location is right by my apartment, next to my grocery store. What more could you really want?

I’m not what you would call a «liquor noob» as I spent a good portion of my adult life behind a bar and another portion of my life underneath it. I’ve tasted all sorts of weird booze, so I know my way around a liquor store.
There are liquor stores who seriously hound you, with the «can I help you find anything?» questions. This place is the exact opposite.
I was in one afternoon looking for a bottle of wine to pair with a charcuterie tray I was doing for dinner. Now, conventional wisdom says: charcuterie = Riesling, bubbles and dry rosé. All work great with salt, all cleanse the palate. So, here I am traipsing around this store, hoping to get in and out, but I can’t find Riesling for the life of me. So, the three gents working that day were all behind the counter, having what appeared to be a personal conversation with another customer. Arggh.
Now, I’m not saying that when I walk in, drop what you’re doing and fawn all over me. But, at the very least, could you perhaps acknowledge my existence? That would be cool.
I may give them another whirl sometime in the future. We’ll see.

It’s frustrating to write this review.
I love the convenience of Butler’s and the selection is impressive for a small place.
However, they claim to give Kenmore Volunteer Firefighters a discount and they simply don’t. They posted stuff in the Fire Hall claiming to support KVFD and they won’t when you get to the register. I am sick of telling staff that their «everyday discount» on wine or liquor or whatever, is not truly a discount.
And, before some cynical critics send me all sorts of messages crying and complaining about how normal folks don’t receive discounts (you do, their are coupons all over town, and they still won’t honor them on something that is considered «everyday discounted») and that KVFD should be happy it get ‘something,’ just remember there is a «V» in that «KVFD» that stands for volunteer; as in no money; as in there is no salary to come save your house or business. It’s all because those at KVFD fight the fires for free.

When I first started my bourbon drinking adventures this was one of the first places I decided to get a bottle. Since then it has become the benchmark of pricing for the other liquor stores in the area and, as so far, it has yet to be beat. Staff seems friendly enough. Selection, as far as bourbon is involved, had many of the usual suspects missing some of the higher end things. Still, great place.

Tucked away on Sheridan, there lies a liquor store next to Aldi’s and Tops near Delaware. It’s a perfectly good place, filled with bottles of exciting things. It took me some time to find what I was looking for — it’s rare that I actually know what I want going into a store. I did end up finding it, so all was good. Also, the person working knew what Metaxa was — a plus in my book — because I’ve been looking for Metaxa for weeks!
I give this place a 3 star rating because it’s a perfectly good liquor store — especially if you’re in the area. That said, the prices seemed a little high to me. Some of the deals on wine weren’t as good as other places I’ve seen. But, it’s a larger store, so if you need a couple things you could find a lot more here. Plus, they seemed to have a huge boxed wine selection — perhaps a more environmentally conscious liquor store?

Great little neighborhood liquor store. Their new location in the plaza has more space, and they have a better selection of wine now. They even have what looks to be a tasting counter, although I have not seen it in use yet.
