Most bev mo’s are GREAT ! That being said that is NOT the case with this store. I will not be going back to this store. I would rather drive to Gilroy or Carmel because of the demeanor and lack of common sense the people there exhibit. They do not care about the customer and will excuse themselves of any kind of responsibility to keep things in stock. SOLAME !!!

Mediocre! The staff is friendly, kind & knowledgable. But when it comes to craft brew they fall short. With two isles of craft beer I expect to find a bottle I wouldn’t find elsewhere. But no… They stay consistant with their selections; sadly. As far as other liquor goes, beyond expensive! Period! Just hit up Coscto for liquor bottles. They have gallon bottles for about the same price as a regular bottles at Bevmo.

Terrible. The man I assume was the manager(40 year old short guy with black slick backed hair) has a disgustingly bad attitude. I was buying some reasonably expensive scotch the other night and I was treated very poorly by him specifically. none of the employees seem to know anything about their product, and seem to not care that they don’t know. I’ve been to other bevmo locations and have had great experiences but this place is so bad I would consider not ever buying fans bev mo again.

I’ve been here twice now. The first time to buy a bottle of Johnny Walker Blue for a gift. They offered me the membership and I got a discount! The second time I happened upon their wine sale — buy one, get one for 5c. I also happened upon their wine tasting on Saturday afternoons. I had no idea! There’s wine tasting every Saturday!

On 04÷01÷13, my fiancé and I returned a 12 pack of Big Sky Montana(Mixed Box). In the bottom of each of our beers was a half inch of gooey yeast ball. If you have never had to experience what that does to the taste of a beer, we hope you don’t have to! We had our receipt and brought back the two open beers along with the rest of the unopened box. The manager had to be called up for the return, and began to justify the disgusting condition of the beer, stating, «ALL beers have sediment.» I was shocked. I am 40 years old and have been drinking beer for a long time. It is very rare to have beer in the type of condition of the Big Sky I was returning. He begrudgingly let me pick out a different twelve pack and pay the difference. This time, we went with a 12 pack of Leinenkugel’s Lemon Berry Shandy. Upon getting the box home and opening the box, we decided to inspect the beers. As we lifted the first two out of the box, the same, half-inch of yeast was in the bottom. Realizing this couldn’t be a coincidence, we found the expiration date: the box had expired in January. I called the store immediately and was given to the same manager. He again tried defending the sediment as something«normal» that my fiancé and I should drink, but backed down when I pressed him on the box being expired. I went in this evening to make the exchange. As the manager approached the register, there was no hello, no «I’m sorry,» or anything resembling a modicum of customer service professionalism. He sternly said, «I’ve talked to corporate and we are only going to do this so many times.» I was stunned, then angry. I informed him Bevmo might want to set up an aisle of «sediment free» beers for those of us that didn’t want a half-inch of mucous in the bottom of our brew, and informed him I would be contacting corporate myself. I am contacting the Big Sky company and Leinenkugel’s tomorrow and let them know that a representative of Bevmo is trying to convince their customers to drink yeast balls. Furthermore, I am sure Bevmo corporate, when they hear the actual story, will either train this manager or find him a position to which he is more suited: something not involving dealing with customers. He managed to make my years as a Bevmo customer come to an abrupt end: all because I refused to drink yeast ridden, expired beer.

Stopped in here on a whim last week. I was killing time while my car was in the shop and decided I’d pick up a few bottles of wine. It had been a while since I stepped into a Bevmo, so I figured I’d check it all out. Everything is well organized and so easy to find. All the wines are categorized by varietal and their selection is very impressive. They have great gadgets and drink accessories, wine, sake, chocolates, caviar, games, liqueor sets, cheeses and just about any adult party favor you can think of. They even carry my favorite Kuleto Estate(Napa Valley) wine, which I thought was only sold at their Estate and through membership. All these fabulous wines and gourmet items under one roof! The manager was very nice and helpful. He apprised me of their wonderful«Buy one bottle of wine, get the second for 5¢» promotion going down the next day. This saved me a nice chunk of money. He also made sure I signed up for a free BevMo saver card to receive email coupons and in-store discounts. Great one-stop shop for all you wine, beer and spirit enthusiats!

If you’re looking for drinking related items not typically stocked at your local grocer, BevMo probably has it. They have great selections of beer, wine, spirits, and accessories. The downside is that for items available at the local grocery, you’ll likely pay more here. For example, my preferred beer & wines are generally cheaper at the grocery store down the road(I refrain from mentioning the name, but it’s not hard to figure out).

BEVMO you have been sent from the GODS. This place has everything from kegs to Don Perignon. I came in looking for some walnut liqueur for a recipe that Martha Stewart had on her show for walnut cookies. Bev Mo did not disapoint they had it. They also carry lots of party snacks like nuts, crackers, cheese, deli meats, spreads, olives, etc. Planning a party there is cups, napkins and little drink umbrellas too. Go in and take a look you will be amazed with the selection

I love BevMo. It’s my all time favorite place to shop. This is the smallest one I’ve ever been in. And the beer selection is frighteningly small. However, I did find 2 bottles of a Shipyard’s Smashed Pumpkin Ale out of season, which made my day. It’s not bad, but I’m not impressed. Not enough to drive from Seaside to Salinas when I’m craving microbrews.

Have to say, this is one of my new favorite spots to shop at in Salinas. The place is always clean & well stocked. The staff is friendly & helpful. This is a good size Bevmo, as I have been to smaller ones w/less selection. The Beer choices are amazing! Just about every Country that can produce Beer is represented here. The wine selection is also quite extensive as well. Wine tasting is only .25 cents on Saturday! Couldn’t believe that, as most wineries charge at least 5 – 10 bucks for wine tasting. They also have other specialty drinks like: All kinds of Root Beer’s & Ginger Ale’s. The Deli selection is great for putting appetizers together for a shin-dig. My wife says the greeting cards are the best there also. Oh yeah, don’t forget to get your Bevmo card, which costs nothing but will give you a nice discount here & there.

Not sure about being prevented from being at Bev Mo if you’re not 21… I’m over 21 and have had good experiences. Also, not sure how this franchise is compared to the others as I have not been to them. The store’s selection of snacks, drinking supplies, and gadgets is mediocre. The selection of sodas, beers, and wines is awesome. There are so many varieties to try! And the discounts on drinks is also exciting.

This is the worst BevMo EVER!!! Seriously I LOVE BevMo but this one is so retarded… they kicked my wife(who’s a club bev member) out of the store for not being 21… { even though there was a mother and daughter in there } which is some horseshit because I KNOW you dont have to be 21 in San Diego!!! I have been going to BevMo for 3 years and I JUST turned 21 two months ago!!! Dont go to this bevmo unless you like being treated unfairly…
