They have an incredible selection of beer and a very impressive selection of scotch. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly. Every time I have looked lost while staring at bottles someone swoops in with guidance and a recommendation. I've gotten some great scotch here simply by looking overwhelmed!

Small but really great cheese shop with a nice selection and accompaniments. Wonderful customer service and knowledgeable and friendly cheesemongers. I bought a cheese that had gone bad and was given an exchange with no problems. Can't wait to come back!

I love this place. Any time I'm even remotely in the area, I stop in. TONS of great wine and beer options, and the deli is glorious.

This place is a drive for us (we live in NE Mpls), but worth it. GREAT selection, helpful staff. You can't go wrong here.

Sandwiches are good. Way expensive. $15 for this sandwich smaller than my hand and they tried to charge us $25 for a pint of chicken salad. Yikes!

I impulsively bought 2 items from the deli and they were both exorbitantly expensive and were not half as good as they looked. The sweet corn risotto had no flavor other than the corn itself. The "Braised Beets" were actually pickled beets and the vinegar taste overwhelmed all other flavors.

Another exceptional visit and collection of craft beer treasures to smuggle back with me to IL on the other side of the Mississippi River (don't laugh. It's a geographic boundary that limits beer distribution). Very knowledgeable and helpful staff in every department. I can't speak highly enough for the deep knowledge and recommendations from their craft beer stewards. Every time I visit family in Edina I go here at least twice. Once at the start of my visit to provision for my visit, and once at the end of my visit to take back home.

Cheese shop is exquisite, great liquor options, and friendly staff. Visited for wine/liquor/beer tasting and ended up getting a club sandwich from the deli! Staff in the liquor store are very helpful and kind - I will definitely be back!
