Herbst Discount Liquors

Went in on New Year’s Eve thinking it was going to be crazy busy but it was the norm I was walking around looking for some good stouts to try and Mike pops out with a smile to greet me and ask if I needed any help and comes right behind him and suggests something really friendly environment for guys who drink craft brews not for the hype but for the love of beer and the taste selection is decent but still not too shabby of a place thanks mike and Jeff

Ok first of all if you’re just writing a bad review based on your sucky experience with lotto tickets, you’re lame.
Anyways, this is the best liquor store in Stockton if you’re a huge «beer snob» like I am. They have a REALLY good craft beer selection. Best of all, if you’re looking for something they don’t have, they’ll order it! Seriously! I mentioned how much I loved the Stone Delicious IPA and they had 6-​packs of it within the next couple of weeks. They have a really cool 22-​oz bottle selection too. They’re always super helpful when I don’t know what I want and they make the best suggestions. This is THE store to go to when I am trying to chill with my beer-​loving friends and have a few GOOD beers (sorry Bud Light fans). You won’t be disappointed!

Honestly, every time I shop here, I make a beeline straight towards the back fridge section where all the craft beer is kept. I appreciate the selection here considering the location, and that it’s not some big box store. If you’re in the mood to branch out and drink REAL beer (not just a sorry, watered-​down excuse for one), come here & check out the microbrews. One of the guys here (name escapes me) is pretty knowledgeable and does most of the craft buying from what I understand. No matter your level of beer nerdiness, from novice to ultra-​snob, he’ll help you find something to fit your palate, so you don’t wind up joining some pretentious drain-​pouring posse. I shopped here to find a gift for my boyfriend, & found a nice Deschutes number that fit the bill. Make sure you ask if he’s got anything special in the back, as that’s where the rarer finds are kept. Awesome spot for beer shopping in Stockton. While you’re in the center, grab a bite at Best Lumpia or Dante’s; can’t go wrong.

Mike is great! He always greats me with a smile and conversation. Staff is very helpful too. Jerry is friendly and just as cool of a guy as Mike. They don’t mind helping you find what you need. If they don’t have it they will bring it in. My favorite liquor store, only place I go now

CHEERS of Stockton! I’ve been a customer of Herbst since I was a little girl… I of course would be buying M&M’s while my parents picked up a 6 pack of a delicious brew. As I walk through the door I am greeted and asked if I need any help. Being a slight «beer snob» I decline help because I already know what I’m headed for and I know that Herbst carries it. A broad selection of delicious beers! Don’t have something that you want? Ask! They’ll order it for you! I can’t remember the last time someone has insisted on carrying my purchase to my car but I can tell you that Herbst offers every single time I’m there! Thank you gentleman, for being just that, and for always being so welcoming and ready to help! Best liquor store in town, hands down!

Dropped in yesterday afternoon and ended up liking this place. Clean, laid back, and a friendly knowledgeable staff. «Great» beer selection. May be the only place in Stockton to by Ballast Point «Sculpin» IPA in a six pack.

I have never felt more «un-​welcome» in a business like I was here!
Their claim of «luckiest lotto» «most winners» is just a «catch»
I have a feeling that they have this «click» with certain customers, and others are just wasting their time.
I spend A LOT on lotto when I purchase it, and the 3 times I’ve been there, the cashier couldn’t even smirk a smile, much less a «good luck» or «Thank You»
Too make it even worse, that LAST time I went in, the cashier shorted me $ 10 — I didn’t notice until I was in my car, and when I returned to have him double check it, he had the nerve to accuse me of doing it to him before… I was like… I have $ 10 — I don’t need it.
He didn’t even give me a receipt, because he had to dig it out of the garbage to find it, and then tried telling me that the Fantasy 5 tickets were $ 10 per/​slip and that’s where the missing $$ went.
I’ve ALWAYS played only 2 slips, at $ 5/​slip = $ 10 NOT $ 20 — He said, whatever and slammed a 10 on the counter, I told him I didn’t want the money… =(
He made me feel like I was trying to rip him for $ 10… I spend more than that on lotto per day! I don’t need your ten bucks!
I guess it was eaiser to accuse their paying customer than to check his lotto machine to find out he was incorrect!
I guess he has a problem with admitting that he messed up and was wrong, and blamming customers was easier than apologizing.
HERBST Liquors… I CAME… I TRIED… (3 TIMES) AND WAS DISSAPOINTED EVERYTIME !!!
THAT LAST TIME SHOWED ME THE OTHER LOTTO STORE 100 feet away (with better luck too =)
Don’t waste your time or money… they might keep it and then blame you in front of other customers… NOT WORTH IT!

This place is great! Super clean, friendly staff. They have a ton of cold beer, as well as tons of snacks. Well stocked with a variety of snacks and beverages. It’s a 10 for me!

Went in looking for a local beer, if you love the hops like I do this is your store. Wide variety of cold brew on hand.

very clean and cool inside. prices for snack foods and ice cold beverages are the same as everywhere else tho.

Looks like a regular liquor store but it really is some what not like other liquor stores. Not like others in Stockton, this place ain’t hella hood with hella fool posted outside intimidating u to go in. Also no it’s not because this place is away from the ghetto the hood is down the street. Anyway you can find anything hear, from margarita mix, any 40 oz, wine? But the thing that won me over besides their good, friendly, and helpful service, YOU HAVE THE OPTION OF BUYING YOUR BOTTLES OF HENNESSY COLD!!! That’s all it took to be a winner in my book. This spots open pretty late and it’s just a good liquor store to hit up if you’re near by.

This is really weird because I used to live a few blocks from Herbst DL. Used to go to the Laundry place just a couple of doors from here. They have just about every thing you could possibly want and probably a few things you don’t want or need.
If it’s the odd bottle of something or other you can’t find anywhere else then this is the place to go. If it is not in stock they will order it for you.
They have gallons, half gallons, pints, half pints and even the little one shot bottles like they used to have on airplanes.
They also have a great selection of wines.

This place is your regular, middle-​sized, neighborhood liquor store, nothing too unusual. What is unusual is the owner. I think his name is Mike. I searched all over town (including BevMo) for Lemonhart Rum to no avail. I happened to swing by this place on a whim and of course they didn’t have it either, BUT the owner said he’d order some for me if I wanted it, which he did! He called me in a couple of days to say they were in, and when I came to pick up the bottle, he told me that if there was any unusual or hard to get liquor, to give him a call and he’d be glad to make a special order for me. No extra charge. What a guy! I tried the same with BevMo and the manager told me that the brand was unavailable in the area –LIAR!
