Malloys Finest Wine & Spirits

Best selection of gluten free beers I’ve seen in a store, ever! Staff was very friendly and the place was super clean, well organized not like a typical package store. I’ll be back next time I’m in town for sure!

I like Malloy’s. I go to Malloy’s anytime I need wine, beer or liquor. They have these experts working there… one wine expert and one beer expert. I have asked these guys lots of questions when I wasn’t sure what to buy or if I needed something specific but wasn’t sure which brand was best. They have always given me great advice! I enjoy the large selection of beer and wine. Im never disappointed when I go to Malloy’s.

Great selection at this store! Beautiful store with helpful staff and fair prices. If you’re looking for something specific… just ask and they will be happy to help you. I have only been here a few time but I will not hesitate to go back if I’m in the area.

For the first time over the weekend, I had the worst experience at this place. 1. No one offered to help me… somehow I was invisible and the many times the worker walked by me, not once did he ask me if I needed help but he sure did ask two other people next me. 2. So I helped myself to what I needed and went up to the cashier and asked for a large bag of ice, the girl had to go the back and retrieve the bag of ice, on her return she was very upset at me for the fact that she had to go off and get the bag of ice. I went ahead and purchased my items, but I made sure that on second round of purchases, I would make sure not to stop here if these workers are working.
This place has hired a younger group of folks which seem not to understand what customer service is.
Sorry, but if I am purchasing craft beer and expensive wine, I expect a certain amount of customer service.

Lovely shop that we found on accident. Good beer and wine selection. I found some fantastic Greenbush beer that I had never tried, so I was a happy gal! Friendly staff. Easy parking.

wow! top notch service here. I told one of the people that i loved Cloudy Bay but it seems to have gone downhill so I hate to spend the $, and he found me the wine that maker now makes (currently). I’ve not had Sauvignon Blanc this yummy since 2008. It’s so delicious. I can’t tell you the brand… I’m afraid it will sell out and I just bought a case. Then, my husband likes Tripel Karmeliet Belgium beer and another person chose three other beers that rival it. The first we tried –Saison Dupont from Belgium – is out of this world. It certainly rivals Tripel. Forget Binny’s –better case discounts here, and so much better service. They told me to come back and do their free samplings on Sat 2 – 5 pm so I can figure out what I think about red whine (I’m somewhat educated on white and more so after the fellow explained the different white from New Zealand, CA, and France).
Btw, I priced the gem of a wine with Binny’s and online. They are same as Binny’s and less than other stores. Same with the beer.
I’m sold on this place! What a gem!

Malloy’s is the coolest liquor store I’ve ever been to. I wasn’t quite sure what to expect when I saw it from the outside, but once I got inside… it’s like a different world! The interior design and ambiance is phenomenal.
One of the things I like about Malloy’s is its not just a liquor store, its an experience. They have wine tastings and beer sampling very weekend. The staff is incredibly friendly, approachable, and knowledgeable. Love it!

Love this place! Great selection at good prices. Owners are great. They have even special ordered items for us when needed.

The staff is the friendliest I’ve ever encountered! Everyone here is very knowledgable and helpful. Their customer service is fantastic.
They’ve got a huge selection of every kind of liquor.
It also doesn’t hurt that they have free tastings all the time. But I would recommend getting there early for their big tastings as it can get packed. Also, if you’re there early enough you can sample the really expensive ones before they run out.

Hands down Malloys is my favorite shop to pick up beer. I enjoy trying different craft beers and Malloys has a really good selection of craft beers to choose from. This location has a nicer interior than the other Malloys but all three locations have great selections. The staff is always friendly, helpful and enjoy talking about new beers that have just arrived. The prices are typical for craft beers.

Feel overwhelmed by the idea of matching a wine to a dish you’re making? Going to a party and the hostess is a former sommelier, and you don’t want to embarrass yourself with some crappy wine as a gift? Need a way better selection of microbrews than most other liquor stores could dream of having? Well, there were all scenarios that actually happened to me, and the good folks at Malloys helped me out.
I really love this store. It’s so much more upscale than many of the other liquor stores in Lisle. Every single time I come in a staff member comes and asks me if they can help me find something. Every single time. They never have an attitude or steer you into the high priced stuff, either. I love their wine tastings on Saturday. I’ve picked up some extraordinary wines on the cheap after getting a taste. The people that run the tastings are so enthusiastic about the products too.
Let’s talk beer. Go to Jewel or Dominicks if you want the case of Miller Lite or Bud. They sell them here too, but you’ll be awe-​struck by the selection of micros and imports. Again, pairing beer with food can be complicated, but the staff here have helped me out many times.
Last, prices. For a smaller independent store I was really surprised how competitive their prices are compared to Jewel and Dominicks. I love supporting a smaller privately owned business, but not always at the expense of paying a lot more for stuff. Fortunately I don’t run into that issue @ Malloys. Go in and check them out. You’ll be glad you did, and you’ll learn a little bit about wine in the process!

This is the best liquor store I’ve been to in the area. The people who work there seem to know just about everything, so if you’ve got any questions that vaguely even relate to booze, just fire away. Last time I was in there, the person who manages the beers they carry spent a good half hour with me walking me through various beers he thought I’d enjoy based on a few seasonal beers I was bummed I couldn’t get in the summer. And, of course, all the recommendations (so far) have been complete home runs.
I’ve never been, but I’ve heard they do extensive (and free) tasting sessions on Saturday afternoons, and their prices seem to be in line with what you’d expect to pay for things. Not cheap, but also, not expensive compared to Binny’s, the Jewel liquor department, and other nearby places.
Definitely check it out. I wish they were open later than 6:00 on Sundays, but, eh, what can you do.

I’m a gamblin’ man, so I’m a Malloy’s fan.
If you only come here once, go on the 13^th. They have a fun little special where on the 13^th of each month you get to shop around like regs, grab your liquor-​y goodies, then at checkout, the friendly booze-​barista will take out a deck of cards and fan them out on the counter. You get to pick one, and whatever card you pull, is the percentage discount you get… not sure if the Ace counts as one or eleven, though.
I pulled my favorite, go-​for-​broke poker hand… the infamous three, eight off-​suit. I know, I know… but it’s my thing.
So anyway, I pull the three-​card and the guys feels bad for me. It was my first time coming in on a lucky thirteen day and he didn’t want me to leave with two-​sixers of high quality and feel like a loser. He let me pick again and up came the eight. Not a huge discount, but I’ll take whatever I can get.
I’d defo recommend coming in on the Thirteenth if you were doing some sort of large libation purchasing for some grande event ala a wedding.
Check out Malloy’s on the 13^th, I’m willing to bet you’ll like it.

Malloy’s has always had what I go in looking for. The store is nicely setup and clean. The staff is professional and friendly. They offer a large selection of wine and offer tastings on Saturday afternoons. I also love their small selection of cheese. Its a nice touch.

I am a beer only kinda person so I cannot comment on the wine or booze they stock (looked like a nice selection though??).
The place is nicely setup and clean and quite large. The beer selection doesn’t match Binny’s but it was above average in size and more importantly: well selected. They do have a selection of top-​shelf/​rarer beers but it is only a few feet worth of shelf space. I would love to see them expand that some. I will say their pricing is fairly competitive.
The staff is quite pleasant and have asked me each time I’ve been in if I needed assistance and usually exchanged a couple words of pleasantry.

3.5
Inside was fancy, perhaps a little too fancy as it felt weird that a place with that dapper of an inside would carry beer. Speaking of which, they need to make room for the beer (even though its not that small of a selection) and not let the wine inventory hog up all the precious space. Service was pretty good, the guy behind the register made a comment about the beer I was eying (FFF/​Dogfish Head Poppaskull) saying that he had some the other day, which I liked hearing. One of the more smaller Malloy’s of the three locations.

I called Malloys because they had a hard-​to-​find wine listed on a web search. They also had it at a very reasonable price. Although they can’t take payment over the phone, they agreed to hold the six in stock for a couple days until I pick it up since I’m an hour away. Wow! Customer service is alive and well at Malloys.

If you drink beer head across the street to value liquor, to a Binnys, or one of the other Malloys locations.
The place is nice but feels stuffy and almost arrogant that you’d even considering buying beer instead of their large and overpriced wine selection.
If you’re into expensive wines and things like that it may be good for you, but if you’re expecting a good selection of beer or liquor even Jewel is better for that sort of thing.
Won’t be returning any time soon.

wow. i’m pretty impressed by malloy’s. quite a large selection of wine and liquor. plus, there are also wine tastings every so often, which i did attend, and the servers were really knowledgeable and friendly.
well kept place, very organized. prices seem pretty competitve compared to most places. you’ll find what you’re looking for here.

I came here, rather than Binny’s, because I had a coupon, pure and simple. I’d never been in a Malloy’s before and frankly the Naperville location is closer to me, but I was coming back from DG so I stopped into the Lisle shop.
I was surprised when I walked in the door; I didn’t expect it to be so fancy! Dark red walls, lots of valances and drapes and tassels… it looks more like an interior design shop. The focus seems to be wine, as it dominates most of the floor, with beer in the wall fridges and some shelves of liquors along the walls. Binny’s selection in liquor they do not have, but I did find Navan vanilla cognac, so the coupon was duly used.
I may check the one near me to see if it’s anything like this one, though I’ll probably stick with Binny’s for their variety of stock.
