Crowfoot Wine & Spirits

Crowfoot has done a great job at building a consistent quality brand across stores of many different sizes in many different neighbourhoods. They’ve got a great mix across the board, stocking large quantities of the big box beers and wine, with a big enough selection of interesting beer wine and liquor to keep it, well, interesting.
While the main store in Crowfoot is a liquor super centre, this location is a little more like a general store. The selection is much smaller but they still do an impressive job at keeping the right products on hand so you can stop here for something craft or something common.
The staff are friendly, mature and knowledgeable enough about their products to set them apart from any other liquor stores on 14^th Street.
While not high enough on the awesome scale to be one of Calgary’s great destination liquor locations, this Crowfoot Liquor isn’t trying to be. It’s your best bet if you live in the area and a great place to pick up an impressive bottle of vino on you way to a party.
See you soon!

Most liquor stores have just-​recently-​18-​years-​old-​stoner males, but I guess going to the Signature location I thought Crowfoot was meant to be a little classier. But this location appears to be a one off… maybe because it’s a downtown location, but the layout of the store, the products available, and the cleanliness is reminiscent of what you’d expect in the seedier parts of town. I guess you can’t really control the patrons either, but watching the guy in front of me try to pay in dimes and nickels and still not have enough money to buy his beer gives you an idea of the general environment of this store.
To go along with the type of employees, they have as much knowledge as you’d expect about the stores’ products and services. Like Jason said, it has location going or it, otherwise it’s kind of a lost cause and a one-​off the the otherwise usually classy feel of the Crowfoot liquor chain.

I was in for a beer tasting a few months ago and have to say, the young cashier working at the time provided some of the best customer service I’ve seen in ages. She helped elderly patrons by holding doors and grabbing the product they wanted. She also joked around with the regulars. It was really nice to see.
On the downside, this location is prone to mischief and I know because I heard stories and they have readily accessible security Thurs-​Sat every week. I’m sure every liquor store has seen some action, but a downtown address would not help the situation. I’m not afraid to shop here, but I might avoid it later in the evening and you certainly wouldn’t find me taking advantage of their 2am store hours. Young and friendly staff give it a good vibe and they keep it stocked to the ceiling with beer.

This is a convenient liquor store located on 14^th avenue with a sizeable parking lot. They manage to pack in lots of variety beer-​wise here. I see many local selection as well as imports. Their wine and spirit selection is sufficient, but I’ve seen larger. Also there isn’t much to the interior. I find there prices competitive and they are open until 2 am, a definite plus!
Bottom line, my choice if I know what I want and its ubiquitous. However, if I’m looking for something special, I might not be able to find it here.

Crowfoot liquor has about four things going for it: location, location, location, and a lot of booze.
It’ll always have a special place in my heart (and an imprint on my liver) as I maxed out my first credit card pretty much exclusively at this liquor store many moons ago.
Good times.
This downtown location has all the alcoholic fuel you need to keep the party raging long into the night.
They’re open ’til 2am, and are perfectly situated just off the party-​hardy Red Mile strip.

Crowfoot Liquor has a very convenient location on 14^th street, so if you are going to the north or southwest this is a great location to pop to attend to your party needs.
I notice that this place attracts all kinds of folks so having a large parking lot outside is really perfect. There are tons of selections here, your liquors, your wines and your beers. The two cash register attest to their huge amounts of sales.
The only thing I would change about this place is it needs a facelift and feels kind of dirty. If they are doing so well and have so much traffic they should think of freshening things up a bit.
