Reviews of Columbus Ave Wine & Spirits (Winery)

J J

Linda's customer service gets 2 thumbs up, everyone else gets a thumb up. Free delivery if you order directly from the store. Tastings are regular. You don't need another liquor store.

Jay Malsky

Always so helpful and friendly! They have a great selection of wines. Delivery service is great as well. Highly recommend.

Todd Wiesel

Great ownership & management, great selection, great prices. Neil is incredibly knowledgeable, and offers terrific pricing for an incredibly large selection of wines and spirits. He has managed to find rare and hard to find bottles for me and always offers them at reasonable prices. The staff is friendly and treats customers well.

David Kraemer

Neil and the store supplied us for multiple components of my daughter's wedding. The wines he suggested were, at each of their price-points, excellent. He really "got" what we were looking for, and we were very happy. And he took returns from our unused stock. If you have an event, I recommend this establishment!

Nitish Korula

The manager, Neil, and all the staff are very helpful, and always happy to give great recommendations!

William Parker

I've been coming here for about two years and it is hands down the best wine store in the city. Every few months I visit and the owner helps me build a case that exactly fits my preference and price. Whenever I walk in, I'm always recognised even though it's been a few months and I don't buy very expensive wine. If you're in the neighborhood, stop by and put them to the test. You won't be disappointed.

Mark Jewell

Great selection, amazingly helpful staff and good deals. Try mon to wed happy hours and free delivery even for 1 bottle

Al Cohen

Good wine selection and very large kosher section. They know their wines and spirits - and they like to talk about them and offer suggestions. That shouldn't be unique for a liquor store, but I find that it is in NYC.

Jennifer Meyers

Local place. Convenient, could be friendlier.

Stacey Lippman

Always exceptional service, good prices and deep knowledge of both wines and spirits.

Neil and the team are the best, and they’ve always come-through on wine for our most important events; always providing the best bang for the buck.

Katharine Salvatore

My daughter and her husband just moved and I was calling around to see who might deliver a bottle of champagne. Neil was great, helping me through the process. The champagne was wrapped and delivered. The “kids” were thrilled and I was too.

MARTINE DAVILA

Un très grand choix Beau rayon de vins cachers et israéliens

Peter Makaj

Very disappointed. Ordered wine on online. When I went to pick it up they tried to play 'bait and switch' and give me cheep wine instead and not the one I have ordered . I showed them a receipt and photo they had on their website and they refuse to honor the sale . The worst experience I ever had in any wine store . Spoke to the owner of the place , very unprofessional ...Buyer beware ....'Caveat Emptor'

Leonardo Torres

There is a consideable quantity of kosher wine. I was also able to find a dry Dornfelder which I've been looking for.

Juan Bolívar

Great selection and good prices!

GIGI King

Went in to purchase a gift someone. The brunette young lady helped me and was so kind. I picked out a sangria imported from Spain. I went back a week later to get 2 additional bottles. Will continue to patronize this place. Great customer service.

Margarita Bresoeva

Great service! Neil, the owner is extremely knowledgeable about his wines. I just give him price range and he selects for me and never disappoints. Also delivers to Hamptons and Fire Island for FREE!

Dang Truong

Great place. Knowledgeable staff that loves dogs.

Josef Reinke

Awesome service - extremely helpful! Michael St James hooked me up with some knowledge and packing material for moving across the country. Above and beyond! Thanks guys! See you soon

Liz Brunnemer

Sadly Too many times ordering from them and it taking over 2 hours to deliver if not longer. They are literally a 7 minute walk away. I have ordered through Mini Bar, who are super helpful and try to find out where the order is. They tell mini bar false timing, saying it’s literally 10 minutes longer and yet I still have to wait an hour plus. Tonight is the last straw. I ordered at 5:45pm on a Tuesday. It is now 8:12pm and still no order! Unreliable and over it!

Eduard Musayev

Very Disappointed. Super slow delivery. Prices wary from app, store and website. Waited for 2 days for my "free" delivery. If I only knew that its takes so long I could have walked to the store from downtown, it would have taken me less time.

Harvey Lerner

Woo Woo is terrible

Sayle Milne

Fantastic store and so thrilled that Neil Weinstock is now lending his wine genius and easy-going personality. I love the layout of the store and the selection is great. Neil and team are so helpful and every delivery I have ever placed through them has been on time and delicious. I cannot say enough good things about Neil. He is THE man.

Juan Bolívar

Great selection and good prices!

Nathan Rousseau Smith

This is the BEST place. Seriously. Such an extensive selection, free delivery(!!!), and if they don’t have what you’re looking for they’ll order it for you.

GIGI King

Marshall Primack

Beautiful, large selection of wines. Attentive sales person was very knowledgeable. I bought more than I had planned to.

William Lamon

Always stocked, always friendly, always quick.

Ari Gilder

This is my favorite liquor store ever. They have an amazing kosher wine selection, and a really knowledgeable and extremely friendly staff (we are on a first name basis now). They run weekly tastings and keep their customers involved and are great in helping people discover new things to try. I just came back from a scotch tasting there, where they brought in a whiskey master who gave a really informative dialogue on scotch whiskey. I love this place.

Ryan Terpstra

Amazing staff - very good American whiskey selection

Julian Holloway

Great wine selection and very large kosher section. They know their wines and spirits. That shouldn't be unique for a liquor store, but I find that it is in NYC.

Tara Rae Heidger

We use this place regularly. The owner is super knowledgeable and has even personally delivered wines to our home!

Derek Haas

Mike knows spirits. I pick his brain about bourbon all day long and he always has something new to share about the industry. Great wine selection as well.

Rob Cahill

I can always find what I need here. Today it was tequila.

Brian Wallis

If you say you close at 11, close at 11. I wasted my time walking down from Whole Foods with heavy bags of expensive groceries and found you closed and lights out at 10:45. Small businesses have to work harder...it’s a fact of life. If you lie about your actual hours, you will deserve it when you are run out of business by more ambitious people.

MsLee! LEE

Great staff, free delivery [Village of Harlem!] Really great prices!

Jen Fraenkel

I lived in the building above this lovely store for a couple of years and I still enjoy going back when I'm nearby. Everyone who works here knows their stuff inside and out and can absolutely be trusted to pick out a nice wine for any dish, occasion or price point. They have a lot of kosher wines. I don't mean the rancid grape juice that so often passes for kosher wine but an extensive selection of wines that stand on their own merit and just happen to also be kosher.

Logan Schmid

Great local wine market

Marshall Primack

Beautiful, large selection of wines. Attentive sales person was very knowledgeable. I bought more than I had planned to.

Ju Hududu

Excellent wine advice

Nigam Saraiya

very knowledgable staff and huge selection of spirits

Daniel Solomons

Large, nicely designed store with very attentive and knowledgeable service. One of the strongest offerings of kosher wines and spirits on the Upper Westside, catering to all budgets. If you're not sure what to buy, they'll be happy to advise you. Also, great selection of Scotch, aged rum, aged tequila, etc at all price points.

Marion Creusat

I love this place! I go there every week. Lots of choices from all around the world, many wine tasting events to try new wines from all around the world, the staff knows everything there is to know about wines and food to eat with. I go there mainly for the passionate and very professional staff. The cherry on the cake is that my dog gets a free treat every time she comes with me!

Dakota Gullickson

Above and beyond service to get me what I needed. This won’t be the last time that I use this company. Neil Weinstock was super helpful!

CLASSICK Morales

Michael has the best knowledge of selection bourbons and whiskey. excellent customer service

Gursharon Kaur Mangat

They wouldn't honor prices that they listed on the website and offered no discount or anything for the error instead they said that they had no obligation for the error.

Enrico Zanardo

Awesome selection and very kind service.. They also have hard-to-find Italian liquors that I'd been looking for for a while

Joe Gannon

They always have treats for our puppy & are always available to help when needed. Excellent selection & atmosphere too!

Rutger Huiberts

I would give this store 6 stars if it was possible! They have knowledgeable staff and great selection of wines and liquors. A little while ago I bought 7 bottles of wines and liquor because I was hosting a party. I continued my groceries, and the bag I had brought from home tore and the bottles fell out. I ended up breaking 3 of them. When I went back to the store, the owner asked me what happened, and gave me the 3 broken botttles. Without charge! He made my party! Where do you find service like that?!

Dev Rahul

Great Selection of wines and spirits picked up my first Mezcal

Alicia Johnson

Ruchika Sethi

Everyone in the store is friendly and very knowledgeable.

Jeffrey Liss

HUGE variety of wines & spirits. Very helpful and friendly staff.

Derek Staranowski

Just got off the phone with a gentleman here, and he could not have been more rude. A lovely woman answered the phone and did her best the help me find a specific bottle. She couldn't find it, but wanted to investigate further. I appreciated her service very much. But then the man who next picked up the phone was just awful. Short tempered, agitated, and just downright rude. Will never shop there again.

Paula Poulafearh

Great service, large selection at discounted prices.

Gladys Lugo

I purchased two bottles of wine and one giant bottle of Tennessee whiskey
