Cap N’ Cork

My dog has become all too familiar with the interior of this store. We love the great selection of craft beer. They do a great job of rotating the selection. They also have plenty of wine and liquor. The wine prices seem more expensive than if you were to run to the grocery store but the craft beer selection can’t be beat. They have parking in the back. They also offer ice cream and snacks!

Doesn’t look like much from the outside and then you walk in. Wood paneled walls and the most extensive, amazing, curated collection of booze I’ve seen just about anywhere. If you are looking for a special bottle, they will have it. More than a few dollars more than K&L, unfortunately. This will keep me from coming back as often. It would be so cool if they were the same price. Then I’d practically live here. I’ll still go to get something really cool. Super nice guys, too. Very well informed. If you want to see an amazing liquor store, go here.

Boo, Captain Corker!
They used to have an amazing range of craft beers at reasonable prices but the range has dropped dramatically and the prices have risen.
What used to be a great selection of rare and uncommon craft beers is now pretty standard compared to most craft beer stores.
You might find an odd rare brew here but unless you’re already in the neighborhood, I wouldn’t make a special trip.
Sadly, the random English Cadbury chocolates that used to be at the counter are also gone. Another victim of Hershey’s lawsuit.

Excellent selection, especially if you know exactly what you’re looking for! Tons of interesting spirits, imports, bitters, beers, wine, etc.
The downside is it’s all a bit overpriced and the huge selection can be overwhelming since the people working there are not very helpful or knowledgeable regarding the products.

My go to place to pick up drinks for a party or just to re-​stock my personal stash. They have a wide variety of craft beer. I like that some selection offers individual bottles, so you can try them before committing to a 6 pack. The appears to be a large selection of wine and liquor too, but I typically come here for the beer selection. There’s a decent sized parking lot by the building on Prospect Ave. The staff doesn’t seem to be fully versed on everything they carry, which I understand with such a large selection… I recently asked if they carried a pumpkin sour, and they replied «no» but then I found it in their store after walking around for a bit.

Worst customer service. I didn’t even make it to my car before the rum that I bought fell out of my bag and shattered. An employee bagged my items in one of their bags. When I brought it back in, literally less that 30 seconds after I paid for it, the manager refused to replace it. I will not be returning. If you can shop and support another liquor market, you definitely should. This place doesn’t deserve any local support. They’ve always been overpriced, but conveniently located, so I’ve always gone there, but not any longer. How is losing a customer that’s been going there for years worth one bottle of rum?

Nice selection of wine beer and spirits. Less corporate than that other place with MO. I asked if they had a ribbon that I could tie around my bag of wine for a gift and they did better and provided me with a nice shiny bag and a ribbon!

Classy store with quick efficient service. Always a pleasure to be able to stop by and pick up a bottle of spirits in the neighborhood and they offer a wide selection of ginger beer and lemonades in the cooler. Neat, organized and stress free.

Pretty good prices (for what I buy). Blue Ice vodka was $ 13.99 a bottle. They also carry Pimm’s Blackberry Elderflower which I found at a different liquor store that no longer carries it.
The liquors section is very well stocked, including a wide range of bitters. I’d be surprised if they ever didn’t have what I’m looking for. Good hours too.

Their beer selection is incredible and it’s like a beer Borg… Slowly taking over the whole store. I love this place and all of the help and suggestions that they so freely offer. I walk there three times a week.

The Cap N Cork is a great beer and spirits store. Their selection is outstanding and the amount they fit into that space is awesome.
Prices are fair as compared to other similar stores. I’ve only had limited conversations with the guys behind the counter but they seem to care about the product they care and are genuinely excited about the good stuff.
Free parking is a plus, especially in this neighborhood. I stop in almost every time I pass by, so I’ll be back soon!

Is this… is this really my local beer store? Is this honestly the place where I can most easily grab a six-​pack, a bottle of wine, and vegan ice cream? YEAH, yeah it is. I’ve been able to pick up a nice bottle of Japanese whiskey for my bosses, all of my favorite craft beers are here (Golden Road, St. Archer, Dogfish Head, Einstok, Modern Times, ETC…), and their wine selection is the most extensive I’ve ever seen in a «junior» market. And ICE CREAM! Sam loves the Magnum ice cream bars, I love the So Delicious Coconut Milk Cookie Dough pints. What more do we need to survive?!
I’ve never had trouble parking in their lot, everyone has always been really nice and helpful, and they’re right around the corner. I love them… I love them so much.

Extensive beer collection
Great service: I called to see if they had White Rascal Ale (Avery Brewing) — the guy kindly checked and they did. Although they’re identified as a wine store they’re equally stocked in beer — if not more! The guy help me pick another beer in addition to the WRA.
Anyway highly recommend.
Also reasonably priced.

Coming from Denver, one of my hardest transitions has been going from shopping at supermarket-​sized liquor stores with an extensive selection of specialty liquor (local, imported, craft, fancy-​schmancy, weird sizes, you name it) and really low prices. I was spoiled.
Cap ‘n Cork is one of the best substitutes I have found in LA so far. They definitely skew a little fancy — this is not a place to get your 40 oz. of Colt 45, Barefoot white zin, or Popov vodka (although they may actually have these things). The wine selection is extensive and well-​curated — they often have some real gems in the sale endcaps! The liquor selection is modest — but they do have that obscure absinthe you’ve been wanting to try. The more expensive items are behind the counter — a big pet peeve of mine since I like to aimlessly browse — but that seems to be the norm around here. I’m not a beer person, but my husband seems to enjoy their full selection of craft beer. Prices are reasonable by LA standards, and the service is friendly.
At the end of the day, this place is my go-​to for worthwhile booze.

HUGE selection of beer, well-​organized, and conveniently located across the street from Cruzer’s. What else could you ask for?

Avoid!!! Nazi mentality. Extremely rude staff. Wanted to buy 3 bottles of Peroni and three bottles stella. Night manager wanted to force me to buy 6 pack of each .said it was policy but in the day I have done it with no hassle. Forcing customers to buy more while denying a sale of a single beer. Isn’t that illegal?
That’s like saying you can’t buy a gallon of gas, you must by ten. Go up the street on hilhurst. Across from albertsons. Nice employees that want your business and want happy customers. They will sell you singles.

Holy selection, Batman! This place has EV-​RY-​THING!
Super clean and well organized shop with just about every type of alcoholic beverage you may desire. a hop-head’s fantasy and a whiskey man’s treasure trove. I really think it’s a good thing I discovered this place so late in my 20’s.
I’m definitely going here to pick up some hard to find beers and whiskeys for Christmas gifts.

This is not a liquor STORE. This is a liquor MALL.
Whenever I am looking for something new and more refined in the world of booze. When I feel like a quality hangover. This is this place I go to in my hood.
Let’s say someone recommends a bottle of whatever. You know those conversations at bars or parties where someone says, «Yeah, I mean, Buffalo Trace is good but you heard of Gunpowder Gold?» Of course you haven’t because more than likely you are not a booze turd who feels the need to shove their «know it all» up another person’s rectum.
But the recommendation sticks in your memory like a bad case of Colitis and one day your home bar complains to you that there is no bourbon left.
So you decide to silence your clamorous bar by treating it to something special, I know, Gunpowder Gold!!!
Cap N’ Cork will most likely have it. Along with whatever micro-​brew you may want to chase down your shots, I mean, sips with.
An added bonus is that Cap N’ Cork supplies gourmet snacks, cocktail mixers, condiments and just about anything you may require; booze related of course.
My favorite find there, a Dominican Rum called Brugal. But not just any Brugal. Get the Brugal 1888. Pour it on ice, splash some pineapple juice over it and chill.
Now I am that booze turd.

Cap N Cork is pretty much on my way home from work, whereas BevMo is way out of the way. I’m glad a pretty bitchin liquor store is on my route that’s full of great wines and craft beers at reasonable prices. They have a really nice selection of Dogfish Head and Belgian sours and that makes me plenty happy.
It’s kind of organized by country if that helps you at all.
The only downside is that they don’t have a lot of smaller singles of beers, mostly the great big ones that I’ll never finish. Also, the smaller white wine selection is mostly pinot grigio and sauvignon blanc, but they have a ton of reds.

Even if this store didn’t have the wonderfully dizzying beer selection that it does, it would still get an A+ for appearance… all of those wonderful refrigerators side by side by side is really a sight for sore eyes!

You’re going to think I’m an alke’ after this review. Honestly, I don’t drink much anymore. I do like great quality spirits and craft beer once in a while. For me, it’s more about quality than quantity and spending quality time with people.
If you’re looking for a variety of spirits, craft brews, and ales, this is the place to go. I stop Cap N’ Cork when I’m in the neighborhood. I search for things that are hard to find like Japanese whisky which they do carry. Some brands the carry include Suntory, Yamazaki, Nikka, and Hibiki. They also carry Hitachino Nest Brewery, a great tasting Japanese beer. A few other favorites of mine they carry are Allagash Curieu (triple ale aged in bourbon barrels), Lost Cost Brewery (Downtown Brown), and Belgian ales, Delirium Tremens, and Trappistes Rochefort. Drink three Trappiste Rocheforts and you’re guaranteed to sleep well.
The owner here is helpful and a wealth of knowledge in spirits. If you’re in the neighborhood, it’s worth coming by to check out.
By the way, they also have a great selection of wine.

Not your average liquor writer. Could have sworn I walked into Bev Mo. Options for days. Conveniently located next door to an event having a byob event. Too perf.
Immediately noticed the selections of dogfish head. They had this IPA with grape Syrah must. Tasted great. Not an over powering bitterness.
Based on what I’ve read it’s obvious this place is a popular local establishment.
