Barrel 2 Bottle

Well, walked into the store and was greeted by a gentleman. Asked for Château Montelena Chardonnay. He immediately told me they didn’t have it so I asked where the Chardonnay section was and I was VERY happy to find the wine I was looking for! I expressed my pleasure at finding it to the gentleman (I would have had to drive to St. Helena otherwise) and the man completely ignored me. Paid for my wine, no «thank you», and I was out the door. My opinion? First time there so I don’t know if this is regular behavior, but I felt like the gentleman I spoke with couldn’t care less that I was there.

This place is my absolute FAVORITE, I’m most definitely a regular here. I Have been going to this place since I first started drinking ! They have an excellent selection and really good pricing as well. They have a really good selection of mixed drinks and a bunch of craft brewery beers as well. The customer service is superb, the manager is amazing :)

Forget Bevmo… this place has it ALL! If Barrel 2 Bottle does not have what you are looking for in stock, they WILL order it for you! I am so done with Bevmo. I was recently looking for a bottle of Cherry Pucker because I love adding it to certain drinks for that really good tangy cherry flavor. Bevmo told me it was discontinued. Not true. Barrel 2 Bottle not only had the Cherry Pucker, they had EVERY flavor Pucker is made in. This is the best and most well stocked store I have ever seen.
Did you know that the Jose Cuervo premade sugar free pre-​made margarita beverage came in more flavors than the regular? Well it does and this store ordered it for me. It comes in a Berry and Peach flavor and they are really tasty and only 95 calories per serving. I can’t find it anywhere but this store.
Don’t waste your time with those box stores, go to this one, you won’t be sorry. Oh, and btw, their prices are very competitive.

I can totally see why people got/​get annoyed at the one female worker who just can’t seem to leave you alone, but as a newly turned legal drinker I was grateful for the help. Compared to Bevmo, there’s less bulk options and less options overall, but there’s still a huge amount of selection here. The prices compared to safeway, CVS, and Bevmo seems fair to me – but I really don’t have too much experience to know a better priced place.
They sell the small bottles like Bevmo, perfect for birthday gifts and decorating a cake with.
They don’t sell any brewing equipment here and were really lax with my ID, one glance and done! So maybe the person who was complaining about having 7 people needing to look has a really messed up ID?

Like others mentioned, the white lady that works there is a bit obnoxious. She acts like a salesperson would at a car dealership. She is nice, however when I told her I was just browsing she didn’t leave me be, she continued to show me what was «new» and what she says other people like. Their beer bottle selection is decent but nothing close to bevmo. I felt pressured by the lady and her consistent haggling. But otherwise their pricing is average. Nothing special.

Absolutely the worst customer service I have ever experienced. I understand checking the I.D. to make sure it’s legit but to the point where they have several people checking it and questioning you is just ridiculous. If I could pick no stars I would.

Best liquor store in Vacaville ! Good prices and friendly customer service !! The prices are always cheaper then Bev Mo and Costco and there located right by the outlets so it’s right off the freeway !

This is my go to for my spirits! They have a great selection on «different» beers and have great customer service. They even will special order you items if they don’t have it in stock.

This place is well worth the visit! Excellent service with a huge selection of wine and spirits. The prices are significantly cheaper than most stores around too!

Awesome prices and a great selection! I wish they had a savings card like BeMo because this is my new favorite spot

Good selection, reasonable prices.
Deducting half a star because they close at 9 PM most nights, which seems a little early to me. Deducting another half of a star because one woman in particular who works there can be very pushy.
I’d recommend checking it out.

Noticed Barrel 2 Bottle banner coming back from WalMart, which is located just across the street. Saw «Huge Selection of Craft Beer» printed on the banner. Being a craft beer whore I had to hop to Unilocal to check out the reviews. One reviewer mentioned Barrel 2 Bottle being the only place in Solano Co that carries Russian River BC bottles. Just that made me check it out. Here I come.
B2B is in an old location of Wine and Spirits World which closed a while ago. It is pretty large with kind of an open space, warehouse-​y feel. I will only review the beer section as that is all I have checked.
First of all, all beers are kept in coolers. That is a big plus. Considering the area they have a decent selection of bottles… Noticed few brews from SD that I didn’t find anywhere else around here. Also scored some Stone Enjoy By, cheaper than at BevMo.
All good so far but here comes the disappointing part: they DO NOT carry Russian River. I asked about it and got the answer that they occasionally bring some from «there» (there being RRBC?) and sell at the price they bought at to «friends. I hoped that they would have a deal with Vinnie or something. Oh well, I knew from before that it is virtually impossible to get Pliny nowadays in SC so I won’t cry here. But it would be nice…
As for beer selection it is probably not as wide as BevMo but they do refrigerate all of it. The prices seem a bit better then BevMo too…
B2B is a welcome addition and another option to find good beer at decent prices in Vacaville… I will come again but won’t expect Russian River miracles :)

I was looking for an alternative to bevmo and I found one. Pretty good selection of craft beers and their prices are competitive. Only place I know in solano county that carries russian river. Their staff was very friendly thou not as knowledgable as I’d like. They even give military discounts, I’m definitely coming back.

They have a good selection of beer, wine and liquors. The prices are reasonable on most but higher on others. Staff nice but one lady that works there is pushy about trying stuff and her recommendation for some drinks were not very good. Worth checking out.
