I Love Liquor

Just stopped by for souvenir shot glass.
Wall to wall temptations. Not the friendliest staff but I wasn’t Norm and this wasn’t Cheers

Dear Lord, $ 90 for a bottle of Macallan 12? I know you are close to a beach, but you are still connected to the United States where that bottle can be bought easily for less than half of that. Absurd. Liquored up down the street was $ 10 cheaper.

The store is in a great location! The lady at the front counter was really nice and polite. The liquor was a little overpriced, but not ridiculous. They literally had everything you could think of to drink, great selection.

Free delivery I think its great (though we went to get ours). Its a liquor store it has liquor at regular prices. What more can i say

I love liquor!
We ventured in here so we could have drinks in our hotel room without having to pay $ 20-​$ 25 for one. There is a lot of choices and the staff are mostly helpful and nice.
There was a «muscle» guy standing at the front watching people. He kind of creeped me out a bit.
The prices were reasonable for Miami (bc everything is $$$). And it was literally across the street from our hotel — WIN!
They also sell a variety of beers, sodas, and juices. Very clean and organized place.
They also sell some cute souvenir type glasses and stuff.

Wow! They have absolutely every liquor bottle you could ask for — brand, flavour, type, size, shape…
I was like a kid in a candystore! I wish it was easier to bring liquor back home to Sweden. I wouldn’t drink it all, just have cool bottles in my homebar.
Poor on beer though.
A bit pricy.

The wine prices are outrageously high. I know wine is less expensive in California, however this place is a total ripoff.

Rude, rude, rude, rude, rude, and poor customer service. Will not recommend and will never again give them my hard earned dollar. It’s not hard to smile and say hello, but when they openly look down their nose at you, I take offense. Not a pleasant environment. Spend your money elsewhere, and purchase from a store that appreaciates your patronage.

I LOVE LIQUOR! We bought a bottle of Glenfiddich for a good price even for the beach. Busiest corner in South Beach and the friendliest staff I think the names were Angel, Camille and Dani. David is the manager. Please sell sandwiches or some other kinds of food. I’ll be back. :)

Go here to get your soda, water and spirits instead of at Walgreens or CVS — much cheaper! And great selections to chose from. Even if you don’t want to buy a regular sized bottle of something they sell those small mini bar sized bottles and individual cans of drinks that will still come out far cheaper than any bar around and don’t get me started on what the hotels and restaurants charge for drinks.
Be your own bartender ;)

If you’re gonna drink it, why not profess your love for the boozy stuff!
I Love Liquor is combo liquor store– shocker! (decent prices and good selection) with the additional section and selection of the equivalent of all of the «I ‘Heart’ NY» cheesy tourist shops that scatter the Big Apple. And like those stores, you can’t help but walk into I Love Liquor… the intrigue from window displayed merchandise and the name alone made it a must stop for me. ;)
Scored the coolest soft-​side ILL backpack cooler (wish I would have bought a few more as gifts), of course had to buy a T and a koozie, and yup, they even sell ILL bumper stickers! I bought one and am going to proudly slap that thing on my car — NOT! Nothing screams pull me over, am I right? [Today’s PSA: Please don’t drive drunk.] But, I did have to purchase one to put on my big red toolbox in my garage. There are also patches, key chains, shot glasses, etc.; and pencils that I was certain to buy and send to my young nieces in Cali — again NOT… can you imagine their teacher’s reaction. Ermagosh! Lol!
Bottom line: I Love Liquor is a neat place to buy unique and affordable touristy type gifts for yourself and friends when in SOBE. There are a few locations to choose from. Cheers!

I wished I learned this before going, but if you just want wine or beer, go to a Walgreens where the prices are much better. Granted, this place had a better selection, but the prices for even standard bottles of wine were crazy. Save yourself the hassle, and just pick up a more generic/​national brand bottle of wine at Walgreens. Didn’t buy any liquor here as I wasn’t in the market for it at the time, but it seemed like the only place around on Collins or nearby that sells it, so you make be out of luck on that.

I wish I couldn’t even give one star. These people do no good business. I will never recommend this business to anyone. So much for being a loyal customer. Such awful management and service.

The staff is very helpful and friendly. We spent the weekend in Miami and each time we came to the store we were greeted with smiles and a «see you tomorrow!» Upon check out. We love liquor!

Liquor and beach towels — just a concept one doesn’t consider when living in New York City.
I can basically just end my review there because that’s about all you need to know about I Love Liquor. Featuring miniature bottles of Fireball, cold bottles of rose, and towels/​novelty t-​shirts with slogans like «I’m In Miami, Bitch»… they’ve successfully written a business model that employs dozens of of people living along the Atlantic Ocean.
God bless America.

I really, really do!
(-one star for the guy screaming into his cell phone in Farsi while ringing me up)

I just love the name!!!
I think we all did since we paid this liquor store a visit several times. There is another I Love Liquor place about a block down, so if you forget something, you can grab it at the other location.
Good selection of alcohol, etc. There are a couple of employees that work here to either help you or to «watch» you. Hmmm, I wonder if they get a lot of liquor stolen?! I see a couple of video monitors right when you enter the store, then you see a dude in the middle of the store watching shoppers like a hawk.
Best place to pick up cheaper liquor vs. hitting up the club at $ 22 a shot! PASS!!!
We were lucky enough to stay in a hotel about a block down. Easy access!

Name and location win the day. Or, a-​ok the day. With a name like I Love Liquor, how can a functional alcoholic NOT stumble his way inside to peruse the selection?
And, for what it is, it’s decent. Don’t come here expecting the religious experience of a Total Wine (can I get an Amen?). But, for what it is and where it is, it’s pretty much the best you’re going to be able to find. The prices are higher than they should be (you’re trapped on the beach), the workers vary from unhelpful to surly (again, you’re on the beach; it’s a way of life for retail staff) and the beer selection is shockingly poor (admittedly, the name is I Love Liquor, not I Brake For Beer… but, still. Come on.) but it’s still one of the best options going on the beach. How do you like dem apples? Save us, Total Wine!!!

I can almost hear the synth strains of Glenn Frey’s «Smugglers Blues» walking into this spot.
I was heading to a potluck beach party where I had to take liquor. Between morning errands and procrastination, such errands had been forgotten and I ran the risk of showing up empty handed. Luckily — and thanks to a friend’s review — I remembered I Love Liquor. Located two blocks from the parking garage I was at and close to Linoln Road, it was perfect for me.
Inside it’s cozy space, there’s a huge selection of any and all types liquor imagineable. They keep the top shelf ($ 400 bottles) behind the register. More importantly, I was able to get one of my favorite dark rums which was greatly enjoyed at said party. We even had enough to share with neighbors!
Why the Glenn Frey reference? The manager on duty and cashier were kind enough to double bag it and make it safe for transport :)

After spending $$$ on drinks at clubs, bars and restaurants — we decided to get a little bottle for our room. We passed by I love liquor every day — loving the name, we decided to stop in.
We looked around the Vodkas when we found Absolute SF. Ha! Two SF Natives in Miami, what could be better? We bought the bottle of fruit infused liquor and a couple mixers. (Update: We mixed it with several things, but the Coconut Water was the best. Seriously hydration + Liquor. :)
I was really surprised that they were not listed. The selection is pretty great and I saw something about delivery. Liquor Delivery? Sounds like the best plan for your party.
