1st Ave Liquors, St. Petersburg FL

DIDN'T HAVE WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR
OTHER BRANDS MORE EXPENSIVE THAN OTHERS LIQUOR STORES

Long story short I just left your business and watched one of your employees “Bridget” I believe was her name.treat a young gentleman so rudely. An I don’t think I will be coming back if that’s how this business treats people. I don’t recommend anyone coming here.

Just moved here from RI and found this gem. We were browsing and Heather seemed a little new, but she was very friendly and helpful yesterday leading us find new tequila we had not yet tried. We will definitely be back.

Very knowledgeable staff, all around great selection of liquor. Great price point. My future go to spot in downtown St. Pete

Amazing store and lovely owner. Best bourbon selections at retail in town!
Highly recommend and go say HI to Marcia while there.

Hands down one of the best places to shop in Pinellas County. I live in Manatee County and only dream of having a store close to as awesome as this one! The selection is great and the best part, every price includes the tax in its shelf listing. No guessing what it might cost or trying to figure out if you have enough in your bourbon budget to grab that other bottle you liked too. There is no hidden gimmicks or strings attached to the allocated raffle either! You don’t even have to make a purchase to get entered into the drawing to get highly sought after bottles at retail! Want more chances to win? You get tickets for purchases also. That’s ALL purchases, not just the ole game of “buy 14 store picks to get a shot at this bottle at 2x retail instead of 4x”.
Now, that’s not to discredit the store picks either. Marcia and crew find some absolute BANGERS when they pick a barrel.
Don’t be fooled by bots leaving 1 star’s and others that get mad when they can’t simply clear the shelf of an allocated bottle and flip on secondary.
Shop with confidence at 1st Ave and make sure you say Hi to Marcia if she is there!

Love that the allocated are raffled. Marcia is active in the bourbon community and helps create a family atmosphere.

Allocated bourbon by raffle, half the fun is finding that rare bottle, won't happen here, bright side found a non allocated bottle I've been searching for overpriced, but paid because I wanted to!

Great store and even better owner! Love how they raffle allocated bourbon and give everyone a chance to get some special bottles without driving all over tarnation. You may not win every time, but I'll take a George T Stagg for 110 any day! Thank you Marcia for being an asset to the Tampa Bay community!

This is such a killer store. Great barrel picks and selection, fun games and raffles to land allocated bottles, and an awesome owner who goes out of her way to impact the community in positive ways. If I could give 1st Ave more than 5 stars, I would.

Was vacationing in St Pete when my wife and I decided to stop by. The staff were very welcoming and friendly. Jeff took time out of his day to show us the store, their bourbon selection and how they handle their allocated bottles. They have a very fair system for selling their allocated stuff! He then informed us of their sampling room and allowed us to try out a great number of bottles! I was like a kid in a candy shop! Every liquor store should take notes of what 1st Ave Liquors is doing. Marcia, I didn't get to meet you which was a shame but I cannot thank you enough for what you're doing! You have a loyal customer for life and I'll be visiting again when I'm in town! Shout out to you and the whole team from Jacksonville!

Drove from lakeland fl to see and purchase a Garrison Brothers product, and was totally amazed at what this store is all about and has to offer, the owner has made this establishment an enjoyable place to go to, I will be back.
