Union Square Wines & Spirits

I went into this liquor store to buy some wine after my dentist appointment next-door. I had been here numerous times before purchasing small amounts of alcoholic wet beverages. Today when I entered the store, I was on the phone finishing a phone call and I came into the store and there was not even one other customer in the store, and I was just politely finishing the phone call And the gentleman who I think is the owner, who is not a gentleman started screaming and yelling and threatening me I felt from I felt for the safety of my life and I’m so upset I can’t believe it. I’ve never seen anybody in my life treat someone like this I’m gonna call the police right now and file a replace Report Right now I am contemplating going to the police station to file a restraining order!! .

The owner is completely crazy: I come from France, 9000 km to taste Californian wine, and I got kicked out like a dog without any explanation. Be careful how you look at the bottles. Obviously, you don't have to be too interested in wine to have the right to buy it. Just appalling. I am therefore posting a review on Google for the first time, after visiting more than 10 countries this year and discovering many, many wine merchants. Paranoiac.

Don’t ever go to this place they are the rudest most obnoxious people their prices are ridiculous and they don’t deserve to be n business PS you are so lucky that your stupid response about stealing isn’t a crime in California or i would sue you - you lost a good sale today and i really hope you lose many more because of your exceptionally bad behavior and treatment of customers

Just to clarify for everyone since there are a lot of negative reviews about price scams, the prices of cigarettes in SF has an enormous tax on it to discourage smoking. The lowest price you can get for a pack is about $12-$13 USD. This would be selling them with zero profit. $15 per pack is the norm for almost any brand that’s a premium brand such as camel or Marlboros. They also aren’t allowed to give carton discounts or buy one get one free, that’s banned in the city. So don’t feel ripped off when you end up paying $15 for a pack of $150 for a carton. If you’re coming from outside the city on vacation, bring your own beforehand if you can.

Well kept and organized liquor store. Friendly and helpful. Pricing is on the high side though. I didn't realize it until after my purchase, but the whiskey I purchased was significantly higher than it can be obtained elsewhere. $60 vs $40-45 elsewhere. It wasn't a product I was very familiar with, but had I realized the discrepancy, I would have never made the purchase

Nice cosy place to buy wines and drinks when you are looking for a dink without paying for the high bar prices. I am so happy to find this place!! Well stocked with every spirits in different sizes! Really amazing! Well stocked with California wines. Great selection of hard stuff!! I was impressed!! If you ever need to byob, need to bring something to dinner or don’t want to pay bar prices, this is the place to hit. Photos to follow.

i bought 2 Marlboro packs of cigarettes, for 15$ each. Later i knew that the normal price is 8$. i was skammed

Prices for spirits were considerably higher compared to other local spirits stores.

Just plain rude... We were tourists ready to spend big on tequila to take home.. Staff were outright rude. We took our business elsewhere

Awesomely helpful staff. I came in looking for a bottle of wine and after them asking a few questions, they pointed me in the right direction with 2 options. And they nailed it. Great choice!
