Corporate idiocy! I went in with a friend, with both of us obviously well above legal drinking age, to make a purchase. She left to go to the car while I was standing in line to pay. When my turn came to make my purchase the cashier asked me if my friend was going to get her ID. When I responded "No." he told me he would not sell to me. Like the trained robot that he has become through corporate brainwashing he was incapable of excersizing any common sense. I USED to go there for one item in particular but will never set foot in that store again. SUPPORT LOCAL BUSINESSES! DO NOT SHOP AT TOTAL WINE!

Its pretty rare that you can have your cake and eat is as well, but with Total Wine, thats exactly what you can do. Total Wine has the best selection and prices around. Their prices even beat out the the big club stores. Beer, liqueur, wine, their collection is extensive. Even elusive limited runs such as Bells Hop Slam can be found at total wine. You just cant go wrong with this place. My liver does cringe a little when we walk in though.

Good selection, so much better compared to Eden Prairies ABC stores. Handle of Glenlivet 12 was also $10 cheaper there. Nice surprise: I was also able to pick up a bottle of Jelinek 5 year Slivovitz there (admittedly last bottle in stock). I actually didnt expect it would be easily available in MN at all. Cant comment on how knowledgeable their staff is, I know "my stuff" and didnt need staffs help. Had a pleasant quick chat at checkout.

Yah its big but I dont think thats always a good thing. Picked up a 750ml bottle of Bacardi and the cashier commented that is was such a "cute little bottle" Well I guess were not all lushes buying booze by the gallons. For a big store they had a disappointingly small selection of mixes. I do give them high marks for the environmentally friendly parking lot.

Huge variety, and usually help is spot on. Last time, guy told us they only had 1 variety of a particular wine... until I saw variety #2 next to the first. Then learned there was a 3rd one in another Isle... Was in for a special gift for a wine connoisseur...oops. Not 100% sure, ask for help friend...

Lots of selection in the libation categories of all kinds. Bit of a costco for alcohol. Several tastings around the store, layout pretty well labeled, staff really friendly. Frankly for brewskies the selection wasnt really any better than most other places.

Really large selection of both wine and beer. They have "make your own 6 pack" for the largest selection of beer and ciders that I have ever seen, so if you want to try something out but dont want to commit to a whole six pack - you can.

I realize total wine is the Walmart of liquor stores, but they had a great selection and reasonable prices that cannot be beat by some of their non local liquor store competition. The staff are very friendly and helpful as well.

Excellent selection at better than average prices. I appreciate all the signage and info cards that introduce products that I may not be familiar with. Not a great selection of glassware or bar tools though.

The staff is amazingly knowledgeable and eager to assist. They dont point you in the right direction, they take you to your selection and offer insights that make for a great experience.

There are few places that have the selection I saw here. It was a bit overwhelming, especially for someone just passing through on vacation. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

It gets super busy at times which can be stressful, but its worth it. This place is basically an adult candy store for alcohol.

Good prices on most things. Staff is invented to push certain products, so know what you want and forget their advice.
