History

Established in 2000.

Nikki’s Liquors is a family owned and run business established in 2000. Formally located at 33 Smithfield Rd in Providence for 14 years, we moved across town in July of 2014 to a new larger location at 32 Branch Ave in Providence. (Corner of Branch Ave and No Main Street)

The new location is 2 ½ times larger than our old store allowing us to give our customers a much more diverse selection of Craft Beer, Fine Wine and Artisanal Spirits.

Also the new location is much more convenient to find located just 500 feet from RT95 (Exit 24 — Branch Ave) near Benny’s.

Really great selection of beers, convenient location and knowledgeable staff. They like IPA’s, Sours and Stouts, which I love.
I particularly appreciate that they mix their selection by refrigerated packs as well as single, and then more extensive room temperature packs and singles. Often build your own 6-​packs have a limited selection or isn’t cold. I like that you have good options and are chilled.
Great place to stop by for interesting beers on the way to a dinner or party.

My boyfriend Nick and I are new to Providence. We have been to multiple liquor stores in Providence and Nikki’s is by far the best! It’s clean, classy, prices are accurate, and the staff I think are family, and just wonderful and pleasant. They are pet friendly and have cool sales and events. Best liquor store in Providence.

It’s a pretty nice place. The owner can be cranky at times tho& as a local business owner I know one can NOT act like that towards their customers.

I have been a fan of Nikki’s since they were in the old location near my house. They have since moved to the end of branch avenue. On our way to beerfest my friends had never been so we stopped in. I had five beers on my mind that I wanted and were not readily available. I walked in and boom they were all there. One stop shopping. They also have a craft beer vault where you can find rare beers. It’s definetly a craft beer lovers dream. The staff is super friendly and knowledgable and if they don’t have what your looking for they will try and get it for you. Prices are very reasonable. I picked up two six packs, three bombers, and a single bottle for about 50 $ which is decent in the craft beer world. We aren’t buying bud lights here. If you are a beer lover this place is a must visit for your beer needs.

Love Nikki’s! The best place to get those «hard to find» craft beers in Providence. What I really love is that when they do have a great beer, they don’t hide them in the back and make you join a ridiculous list to get them. They will display a few on the counter and its first come/​first serve, Which I find unfortunately rare. The pricing is very reasonable as well (in a world where many liquor stores price gouge popular brews like crazy). There is also a section of brews from outside the states as well which is really awesome.
The selection is always changing and the staff is very helpful. Nikki’s is always my first stop when in search of my weekend beer ;)

Nikki’s is my go-​to place when I’m looking for unique, hard-​to-​find beers. I’ve been going to the old location since I was of legal drinking age. They absolutely know their beer and are always willing to help. They always carry the single release and limited release beers as well. I’m a big fan of their cellar room, which contains easy gifts for any beer lover (or yourself!).
To me, Nikki’s falls a bit short in the spirits category, where they have an inventory that you’d expect from an average liquor store. Wine is similar to the liquor situation; a lot of good picks, but nothing as extravagant as the beer.
Bonus points for the ample parking, despite it being awkwardly pitched. It can sometimes be difficult getting a whole lot of beer into your car when the car door keeps closing due to the extreme angle of the parking lot. Also bonus points for the dogs sometimes found behind the counter– they’re pretty cute.

Upscale liquor store that specializes in an obscure craft beer selection. This store has a strangely contemporary look for a booze store. The owners are very nice and knowledgeable about the special products that they sell.
Tip:
Not your beer shop for cheap beer, very limited selection.
Thanks

West Warwick, RI
Great surprise in coming here they had a beer tasting for Six Point beers. The vendor was so informative and really easy to talk to. The place itself has an amazing selection of craft beers and the ability to buy them individually so you can try so many different kinds. The employee that was working the floor was so very nice. He came up to us asking if we had any questions, then showed us to the area where they have a limited selection of beers that they no longer have in the store. He was also very helpful in explaining the different types of beer as it can be a bit overwhelming.
The selection and the service was excellent, was extremely impressed!

If you are looking for something in particular, Nikki’s has it. Looking to try a new beer but don’t want to commit to a full 6 pack? You can buy individual beers at Nikki’s. They have weekly tastings. Their prices are solid and reasonable. Nikki’s also has a good wide selection. The best part? The staff are super knowledgeable. The only downfall is that the front entrance to their parking lot is in a cumbersome place. But don’t worry! You can enter from the back side street safely.

10⁄10 will drink again. I was impressed with the large selection and the «down to business» staff.
They also use the Belly App. It’s a great app that works as a rewards card of sorts.

Being a big supporter of their original location, I have been really impressed with this new store/​location. The new layout is much more spacious and modern looking. They have a decent selection of wines and hard alcohol… but the craft beer selection is still hands down one of the best in RI. I also really like that they have a vintage /​aged beer room which includes a nice selection of various beers they have kept properly stored over the years.
Besides the amazing beer selection, what I’ve always liked about Nikki’s is the great customer service I’ve received from the owners here. If I ever have beer questions, or even the occasional one about bourbon, they are always very friendly and help steer me in the right direction. They also put on a weekly beer tasting most Friday nights with various breweries which is a really good time.
Selection, reasonable prices and friendly customer service… these are the reasons why I consider Nikki’s one of my favorite liquor stores in Providence and will continue to be a loyal customer.

A beer lover’s dream! The selection is overwhelming… but like a good overwhelming. I try to get something different every visit when I make a mix-​a-​six.
They initially did not have Woodchuck Granny Smith in stock in their new location (a staple in our household) so they made sure to order it and keep it in stock. Talk about customer service!
I am not a wine connosiur, but their wine offering is varried, including the staples.
Also, be sure to visit during their beer and wine tasting to expand your horizons!

Nice little spot directly down the hill on Cypress, just minutes away from my home, a precarious situation for someone who enjoys sips of aromatic scotches and the tanginess of a dry red wine. Unfortunately, despite the name, this establishment is more of a craft beer-​utopia than liquors. Don’t get me wrong, beer is great (or so I hear), but I just don’t know anything about it to make an intelligent decision during a purchase.
I came here to pick out a wine pairing for an oyster dinner and was very glad to have someone guide me through the small isle of wine selections. While she admitted that wasn’t the world’s expert on winery, she was very helpful and helped me pick out the wine which did work very well with dinner. The scotch selection is decent, and the prices range relatively wildly, even compared to other stores. But the crazy part is that some are definitely cheaper and/​or more expensive than others, but without any rhyme or reason.
Anyway, given its close proximity, I may find myself coming down here to find out which bottle of scotch is the cheapest, but as for wine, there are other closer shops with better deals, such as Bottles.

Ah Nikki’s thank god you came over to Providence. I always loved the North Providence location, but always felt like a drive even though they had excellent service/​selection.
Now we have a Nikki’s nearby, thank the Maker! Tastings, selection, and great service, don’t mind if I do.
Also a little tip too (trust me not a paid endorsement) sign up on Swipely for Nikki’s cash back.

There isn’s a whole lot I can say about Nikki’s that hasn’t already been said. The beer selection is awesome — everything from rare German beers from the oldest brewery in the world to fancy newfangled brews with crazy names and crazier labels, and the most impressive Allagash selection I’ve seen outsife on Maine. With over half the shop dedicated to beer alone, this is clearly the beer drinker’s store.
As for the wines and spirits, while they have a decent selection it’s not my favorite. The prices are also a little higher than what you’ll find nearby (Nikki’s charges $ 6.99 for a bottle of Casal Garcia Vinho Verde whereas other places in the area sell it for $ 3.99), but the cleanliness and ambience of the place beats out a lot of the others, too.
I did not find the staff to be particularly helpful — when I was browsing through the wine section, there was a gentleman stocking wine the entire time and he never once acknowledges my presence, which I found odd.
The location is good (although tough to get out of – damn Branch Ave!) and I can see this being a huge hit for PVD beer drinkers.

Craft beers and awesome service less than 5 minutes away?! Jackpot!
Nikki’s has always been one of my favorite places to grab some brews in RI and this new location makes it even better.
The new place is right on Branch Ave, has a nice area for their weekly beer and wine tastings as well as every beer imaginable. Seriously folks, their selection is one of the most impressive I’ve seen.
We’re going to be so spoiled with so much awesome so close by!

The best place to get craft beer just got better with this new location. I live very close to the old Nikki’s location, it was our go-​to liquor store, and at first with this move we were unsure if we’d still frequent them. But the new place is so great it’s worth the further drive for us. So nice on the inside, with a cute little spot for tastings. Way more wine now that they have the bigger store, and I’m guessing more beer too although they always had an impressive selection.
We’ve gone in a bunch of times since they opened and this past Saturday night they let us have a free bag to carry wine in, cause we are «awesome» as the fabulous owners told us. That essentially set in stone I will continue to frequent Nikki’s. The owners are wonderful, very knowledgeable, and the selection can’t be beat. They have a bigger parking lot now, and it should be noted if you are trying to take a left hand turn out of it, it’s easier to go down around the back of the building and take a right onto that side street. Way easier to take a left there than out of their lot.
Keep doing what you’re doing Nikki’s!

So many positive things about this business! i will rate and write the review, but please… Go and experience this yourself and rate and review. I hope you agree.
Here are things that I believe contribute to the 5 star experience.
1. Parking lot next to the building
2. EASY to get to from RT 146 or 95
3. GREAT Owners and Staff — They won’t hover, but they will ask if you can find what you are looking for and if not, they will give you an estimate of when it might arrive — delivery days around Tuesday, if I remember correctly.
4. Great Space, plenty of room for stock and people for browsing — coolers and shelf stock
5. Excellent selection of craft beer! One of the best I have personally experienced in the area.
6. Beer tastings on Fridays!
I look forward to shopping there again, it won’t be for a few weeks as I bought plenty of stock for the next month or so. :)
