Yarmo Liquor Store

This place is like the Sears of liquor stores. Nothing fancy, but if they don’t carry it, you probably don’t need it. Great, basic selection of all the poisons. Friendly and helpful staff. Good prices. Regular wine and beer tastings. Strip mall location with tons of parking. Coopers Foods next door for all those munchies you know you’re going to need, and SPPD cruisers prowling the lot all the time to keep the riff-​raff nervous. Wish they were open later, but… it’s the St. Paul culture. Highly recommended.

This is a one of those hidden jems Unilocal!is good at pointing people towards If only it wasn’t in the middle of a crummy strip mall on W. 7^th next to the terrible Coopers SuperValu. I would be here a lot more often if that were the case.
The beer selection is fine. Nothing fancy, but they have what I drink, so I won’t dock them for the beer.
Where they excel is the vodka, gin, and whiskey. Such a selection! They have Hanger One Vodka for *literally* half the price of what it’s listed as online. I know this because a friend has raved about Hanger One and the only place she knew to get it was W.A. Frost. It’s an excellent vodka that’s usually around the 30 dollar mark, but this place sells it for 17.
They have local, organic gins and whiskeys for great prices and when I need to refill my Hendricks, this is the place to go. It’s usually 5 or 6 dollars less than anyplace else around here.
If the location was better, it would be a five-​star location. I’ve had to wait in line while both registers were being taken up with people buying small bottles of hootch with pennies. I would love to see these owners open a different place in a more up-​scale location.
Worth a try if you want to branch out from your usual alcohol without spending a lot.

Small, local liquor shop with a decent selection. They have a variety of spirits and a large refrigerated case for the beers.

This place is good in a pinch. Things are reasonably priced and it is convenient. Would I shop for wine here? Probably not knowing The Wine Thief is up the road but their beer selection and everything else seems ok.
Super easy to run in and out of and for the most part, that is just what you need sometimes.
