Philippe Liquors

I used to go to a liquor store across the street from me bc I figured every place is about the same. Then i found Phillipe Liquors. The selection is great, and the prices are even better. There were plenty of employees in the shop and everyone I spoke to was helpful. There are sale specials all down the center of the shop and they offer free delivery! I purchased more than I could carry and the delivery arrived faster than I expected. This is my new go-​to liquor/​wine shop.

I don’t know how the staff is because they closed early. 3 employees standing inside, 1 working behind the counter, 2 just standing there looking at me. It’s the only «open late» liquor store in the area and they close 15 minutes early… awesome service.

This place has really friendly service and great wine selection. The prices are also super reasonable! I bought a $ 10 bottle of rosé, and it was absolutely delicious!

Been coming here for some time now and I must say, these guys are great. One of the best selections in Chelsea. They even offer FREE delivery!!! how convenient is that, what more can you possibly ask for.
Great staff, reasonable prices and open later than any other wine shops in Chelsea.

The fact that I have to review a liquor store shocks me being from Arizona, but when you’re in New York City, you’d be surprised on how many liquor stores truly hit rock bottom.
I’m primarily reviewing this one, so next time I’m in Chelsea I remember which of the four surrounding me I actually like to go to :)
Great selection, reasonable prices, and open later than some others nearby.

Was coming here multiple times a week after work and unfortunately I grabbed one of their «team picks» that was to my taste undrinkable. Tasted like pennies and left a terrible lingering bitter aftertaste. Called to ask if I could return it and they told me to come in. After walking all the way back, I was given extreme attitude and he made me smell the cork declaring it was fine. I asked him to drink it and he turned away angrily. He let me exchange it but not without extreme attitude.
After working 11 hours I want to be sold a wine I can trust and to buy from people who care about their customers. Lucky for for me there are PLENTLY of other stores in the neighborhood.

Terrible service. People do not care about their customers. Selection is limited and wine is not kept in proper conditions.

Open late, good selection. I don’t live in the area, but fortunately Unilocal pointed me here and I was quite happy with the results!

They deliver! Total selling point for me. This means if I need a little booze or wine, I can call them up and it’s about 20 paces round trip from my couch to the door. Lazy, I know. Please don’t judge me!

Went to this liquor store while I was in NYC. Nice varied selection of liquors. Also had a nice selection of Rose’ to choose from. I couldn’t be disappointed. The folks in the shop were attentive and helpful in finding items… This would be the go-​to spot near my Baby Sis’ place for liquor when I’m in NYC…

Great selection, reasonable prices and knowledgeable (and friendly) service = A+ experience at Philippe Liquors.
We particularly appreciated the wide variety of high quality and competitively priced champagnes to help us get our New Year’s Eve drank on.
PARTING THOUGHT: They also have great hours, although I’ve never met anyone there actually named Philippe!

Sandy was a B*tch. Every liquor store was jacking up their prices pre-​Sandy or was closed. I was stupid enough to be stuck in the city on that fateful October 28, before the storm and I wanted to get booze before I holed up. EVERYWHERE, things were closing at 4, or were expensive, or out of stock. I didn’t want batteries, I didn’t want lights, I didn’t want fresh water or non-​perishable food… I wanted BOOZE.
Luckily, I found this place. It was packed because they had NORMAL prices for their booze and a decent selection. Now, I ducked in and out, but they get that 4^th star because they weren’t dicks. They made a strategic decision to add a cashier and keep their prices the same, and as a result, they were super busy. Good for them. I can’t speak to the selection because I did run in and out, but the staff had a decent attitude considering the impending Armageddon, so, I’ll go back if I’m in Chelsea and looking for a cheap bottle.

It’s a liquor store so you might not expect much but this is by far one of my favorite places to stop for a bottle of whatever. Squeaky clean, always bright and I’ve always gotten the friendliest service. Impressive is that the window displays are always changing and they’re always quite elaborate. Oh, and their prices are quite competitive also! They get my money each time.

I thought I liked this place… I’ve had a delivery once and it was speedy and good. Recently, I called to ask for a delivery (they clearly state they deliver). It’s 6:49 pm.
The man answers the phone and pretends to not hear me.
It’s ridiculous. Just say you don’t want to deliver. Don’t make it so I have to keep calling back thinking that you can’t hear me.
I called three times as he repeated «Philip’s liquors!» over and over.
My phone working just fine. So rude. ugh. no more.

Delicious wines at all prices and a friendly staff that is happy to help. Best part is that they deliver!

Professional service, very good selection, never a hassle. I don’t imagine you’ll be let down here.

I come here probably on a week basis. They have a broad enough selection of wines and liquors, and surprisingly cheap for a neighborhood where Gristedes is a $$$ grocery shop, but that’s another review.

I have to agree with everyone here so far. very personable, serious about their job, great variety, and for NYC, the prices are what you’d expect them to be, but not over the top.
They’ll even have fliers outside the door with seasonal sales and such. Real nice place.

Great selection, easy to navigate. Nice people. Cheap. Open late. A pretty solid neighborhood pick!

Great place to get alcohol in the neighborhood. Cheap and personable staff, this place does not look like a shady liquor store AT ALL. We went in to get some rum today and they actually had a wine sampling! The prices are low and the service are great. Definitely recommend anyone to get their jesus juice here ;)
