This is a small, almost boutique, liquor store. The exterior belies to collection of really nice libations that awaits inside. As a rum lover, it often hard to find the lesser known, but better quality, rums. Holiday has a small but excellent assortment of rums. Having driven all over Atlanta, from Kennesaw to Grant Park, this shop will now be my go to establishment. The folks that work there are also super friendly. Their depth of brand knowledge and flavors is refreshing. Give these guys a try. You will not be disappointed for taking the time.

Great service!My wife and I hosted a fund raising event at our home, and running way behind schedule...We called the store and they were super helpful- They offered to deliver the wine and beer, same day! We were really impressed with our experience and will now be permanent customers.

They always have a selection of choices I am happy with. Every time I have needed help with a wine or liquor selection I’ve received great suggestions from some knowledgeable people. The dog is friendly too!

Horrible experience here. Pictures for this shop show Meoimi Pinot but no one in the store knew what that was. Decided to deal & grab something else. Wine was in the wrong place and was told three different prices then after purchasing my wine the owner said something super vulgar to me while I told him to have a great day. The owner then found his way outside to yell at me through my car window. DO NOT SHOP HERE. Ppl like this don’t deserve your hard earned money.

The guy who works the front was rude to me. And a couple other people I know that goes here. I really enjoyed going here until my encounter with him. Im going across the street now for good.

I had a great experience here. The gentleman behind the counter was extremely friendly and recommended a local bourbon Fiddler. I was back the next day to grab a bottle for my collection at home. I had a great experience here and will visit every time Im in town for business.

Such a great spot for our changing neighborhood! The peeps at Holiday are so helpful and their selection goes beyond the other stores in the area. This is the spot before we hit before the pool or a party. Cash gets you a discount!

Very bad customer service- I went a few times just to see if maybe things would change or if they were having a not so go day- NOPE. Their selection is Not wide and the attitude and customer service terrible. I felt the woman is extremely racist. Very very unfriendly and I will no longer do business here. My money is green like everyone else’s. It’s not worth the stop. Keep looking.And in response to the Owner yes I am 100% sure it was Holiday Wine & Spirits - I gave my review in the parking lot of your location. Thank you.

Was spending 400.00 a month at this establishment for over 10 years. The prices were much higher than Tower down the street, but this place was more convenient. Went in one night and they were out of what I wanted. The Owners Son who always had an attitude told me to get out. I did and have never been back. I must not be the only one, they changed there hours and the parking lot is always empty.

Review №22

The owner and most of his employees are good people, if possibly the owner is extremely week of mind or will. He asked debit or credit, I said credit and he said i needed ID, then ran a pin purchase anyway. I said, considering the cost of a pi purchase, run it on another card instead... which shouldnt have been necessary anyway. Then his employee involved himself and refused to do business on his behalf. When I explained this posting was going up, that refusal was pertinent. Seriously!? Do you know how much some companies charge for pin transactions? And Im 86d because I asked to avoid them, and the owner SUPPORTED this?

NORMALLY WE’D PASS OVER this standalone, liquor store because the outside doesn’t attract much attention. At least the INSIDE IS DECENTLY CLEAN AND ORGANIZED. Unfortunately, the employees inside each need a few people skills. Despite us being well-dressed and in our late-20s (unassuming) ONE LADY KEPT TRAILING US talking on and on and on trying to sell product we weren’t too interested in. The manager (I think) COMPLAINED LOUDLY OF HIS DISAPPROVAL of Georgia’s alcohol laws and the battle between him and local breweries. PRICES WERE STILL A TAD HIGHER than the big-box alcohol stores especially when it came to local Beer. This place was okay for the convenience but next time we won’t bother.

Old school Liquor store thats been around since the beginning of time. I overheard the owner speaking Mandarin to a Chinese lady about wine. The owner is not Chinese. My jaw dropped. You would not expect the level of customer service these people provide. They walk the wine out in a box for my wife. Every Time. They have an Awesome selection of craft beers and my wife loves there wine selection and the low prices! I dont drink much liquor but they have redone the selections and the store looks better.

An older couple was behide the cashier as I came in. They were about to close but we still were able to go in. Floor was wet due to mopping. Prices seem fair and couple was nice, starting conversation. Would come more often if I lived in the area.

They had an Okay selection which was nice but the store felt unfinished and they had several products on the shelves that were not in the system so we were all trying to find prices on the internet (weird). The young lady who helped us was very kind though. It was just a weird experience.

Locked doors as I came to the store 25 mins before closing. Cashier was highly rude and lied about when they closed. I have never been treated like such a common thug in my life. I recommend spending your money at a cheaper package store.

ADVICE TO FUTURE AND CURRENT CUSTOMERS, TAKE ALL YOUR BUSINESS A FEW MILES NORTH ON BUFORD HWY TO TOWER. THEY ACTUALLY SHOW THEIR CUSTOMERS RESPECT NO MATTER WHAT YOU LOOK LIKE OR WHAT YOU ASK THEM ABOUT.If I could give negative stars I would!! I have never been treated so poorly as a customer before. This family-owned business should go back to school and learn customer service AND enroll into anger management therapy. From past reviews on Yelp and Google, it seems the Family-owned business profiles its customers in all the negative ways!While in Chamblee, GA for work, I Googled local Liquor stores on a search for a rare bottle of bourbon for my finace. Holiday Package Store (also know as Holiday Wine & Spirits) came up as a store specializing in hard-to-find wines and liquors. So I thought Holiday Package Store may be able to help... I WAS WRONG!! Upon entering, a younger guy with a beard was chatting with another guy behind the front counter. He asked if I needed help. I apologized for interrupting them and then asked if he had any limited or rare bourbons for sale. He mentioned a local brand that I was not interested in. When I mentioned Blantons Bourbon, he sarcastically laughed and told me good luck, and any rare bourbons he does get in the store, he gives to his friends or consumes the bourbons himself. I mentioned finding two bottles of Blantons, but each store that had a bottle wanted well over double the retail price!...(I did my homework and asked around what the retail price was for this specific and hard to find bottle of bourbon.) The younger guy immediately made a derogatory comment towards me (basically saying I was stupid for not buying those overpriced bottles.) He then proceeded to ask if I liked my finaces vagina! Seriously, what does that have to do with my inquiry for a bottle of bourbon??? I mentioned drinking another less expensive bourbon, which set the younger gentlemen off to the point of yelling at me and telling me to get the f*uck” out of his store! I thought he was joking at first, but I was wrong! He literally ran to his front door, opened the door and kept yelling for me to leave. I tried to ask about another bottle he had for sale behind the counter, but he told me he would not sell that to me! Does he assume I cant afford a rare bottle of bourbon???Never once was I rude on any accounts to him! I basically walked in to inquire about a special hard to find bourbon, but I was quickly criticized, called derogatory names, had sexual remarks made towards my fiance, and felt threatened.AGAIN, I would advise all future and current customers, take ALL your business a few miles up the street to Tower. They actually respect you no matter what you look like or what you ask for!

Very rude service. Felt like my boyfriend and I were being watched the whole time. Im guessing it was because were young. Cant say because were black because there was another black man that they helped perfectly fine. Older man who worked there tossed my boyfriends ID on the counter and said that aint no drivers license Obviously! Its an ID that states he is 21 years of age. I told him I didnt like how he tossed it on the counter so we can take out business elsewhere. Id give them 0 stars if I could!

Review №43

Miserable, lonely crooks. I asked about a 375 ml bottle of relatively low-end whiskey, and the younger guy told me it was $3,000. He then proceeded to lecture me about economics, describe me as a yuppie, and mock me for not being able to afford it. When I pointed out that the bottle was worth far less than that amount, the old guy accused me of being anti-capitalist, which felt like a threat. The younger guy then told me about how he illegally buys and sells liquor outside of the context of the store, a practice that Ill most certainly be reporting. These are bad people who knowingly price gouge, and gleefully brag about it to anyone who so much as asks for a price. They should be put out of business.
