Choice Mart

Okay so honestly, the whole foods down the street should sell liquor. But this is boston and it doesn’t. So this liquor store definitely saves the day! No ambiance, but why would you look for that in a liquor store? Get in, get out, try and make it to the pregame on time!

This place is as quick and efficient as you could hope it would be. Go in, get booze, leave.
The prices here are quite reasonable, which may explain the barebones interior — it’s packed and isn’t exactly shining clean, but that’s okay. Everything beyond beer and wine is behind the counter, meaning you have to be pretty sharp about what you want — though the guys are quick to help if you just want something simple or cheap.
Stock is okay. Lots of weird liquor, which is to be somewhat expected. The beer selection could be better, but given its location and the clientele, I’m not super surprised.
This is basically just an efficient little liquor store, nothing more, nothing less. That’s just fine with me.

Ridiculously overpriced wine selection, often as much as 70% above what it should be sold for.

If you buy liquor, they have it, and they are more than happy to take your money for it. Unfortunately for me that is not why I was there.
After a quick search on the Western Union site, I found Choice Mart as my closest portal. No problem, I pick up the old caboose, and head on over there to do my business. I walk through the door, and ask the man behind the counter whether he does Western Union. He says that they do.
Great! I need to receive money. Suddenly that is a deal breaker. He says that he «no has money» as I look at him a little perplexed. He goes on to explain a little about how he pays some sort of fee to Western Union without making money off of it, which is all well, and good until I remember that he is listed on their web site, and was so excited that I wanted to use the service until I asked to receive money.
Not cool, Choice Mart, not cool…

Decent selection of local and foreign beers at average prices. A reliable stop for alcohol for those in the area and on the way to party, gathering, etc.

Meerrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
Decent selection for liquor but mildy expensive
Huge slection of lots of interesting craft beers but the normal bud lights and such are ridiculously priced
If it wasnt so close I probably wouldnt come here, but it is so i do
VIva la $ 12 18’s of rolling rocks!

Great selection – they have pretty much everything. The guys that work there will check your ID the most intense way I’ve ever seen, so don’t go with a fake.

This place saves my life constantly.
That is an exaggeration.
However, I often forget to bring wine to friends houses for dinner and Choice Mart– with their huge selection of beer, wine and liquor– is a sure bet for the right drink.
I’m impressed.

I’ll be honest with this place being much smaller than a 7 – 11 and a bit bigger than a dry cleaners, they have a chunk, yeah thats right, chunk of craft beer. Most of the quality craft stand –bys are cold too.
It also helps that it is on my route home. Crack one open to share on the T anyone?

I really like this liquor store. So they may not be the cheapest in the area or have such an extensive wine selection as Shaws or other wine shops in Boston or Cambridge, but they do carry a pretty decent selection of wine beer and spirits for all budgets.
They claim to have the widest selection of international beers — I would have to say that I am very impressed that they carry Innes and Gunn — a delightful Edinburgh beer which has been aged in whisky barrels. Really yummy (though a bit steep so just for special treats!)
It is super convenient for my apartment and so I just keep going back for my fix of red!

This is definitely among the better liquor stores in the area.
They’re more of a We-​have-​one-​of-​everything kind of place than a lot of one thing. Which I like.
If you’re in a rush and in need of a good spirit, Choice is a good choice.

I take it back, I was wrong and immature. I like you.

They are okay, they got the hard liquor license from Costello’s so they sell spirits now, okay selection, your best bet for that area other than going all the way to Clarendon or Shaw’s
