Revival Wine, Beer, and Spirits

Small, but well curated selection. Super nice staff. Elegant, clean space. Oh, and it’s in my building… boom.

I’m so happy to have such a wonderful shop downtown! I don’t know much about wine, beer, and spirits except that I like to drink them occasionally and gift them to people often, so I am so grateful that the staff here is supremely knowledgeable and approachable. Here are some actual requests that I’ve come in with:
* I need something for a gift exchange that will be attended by foodies and wine snobs.
* I need a fancy bourbon for a special birthday.
* I don’t know what wine to bring to Thanksgiving dinner.
* I need a gift for an acquaintance who I know likes buttery Chardonnay.
* My dad likes X, Y, and Z beers; what local beers do you recommend I bring along when I visit him?
* I think that red wine is finally starting to taste good to me. Where do I start?
As you can tell, I’m pretty clueless about alcohol. Their recommendations have all been wonderful. Good thing that everything they put on the shelves is curated and selected with care.
Not only are the products and customer service excellent, but it’s just such a beautiful space. The wood floor, the huge windows, the shelves, and the décor make it a lovely place to visit.
They usually have free tastings during Lowertown First Fridays. Unfortunately I haven’t had the chance to check that out yet, but I hope to soon.
BONUS: A few times, I have seen an adorable and friendly shop dog there!

Very happy to have this place close by, I make several stops a week. Great resource to have in downtown Saint Paul. Wonderful selection of wine, as well as many unique spirits and many local craft beers. I’ve also noticed prices are quite competitive and fair. Staff is awesome: helpful, friendly, and not pushy.

Wonderful shop, great prices and selection — super helpful staff — their recommendations have become some of my favorite wines.

Hard to find, homeless people in the halls especially at night and in the winter.

Great location.
Polite, knowledgeable staff. The owner is a hard-​working, experienced dude and he deserves your business.
Amazing wine selection.
Comparable prices to anywhere else in St. Paul.
Clean, organized displays.
Love this place.

With its excellent service along with an outstanding selection of wine, liquor and craft beer, Revival is my go-​to for satisfying my booze needs…
Pro’s:
+ Great Downtown Location — Right off the light rail and conveniently located in the Skyway
+ Informative and helpful customer service from owner and staff through out shopping experience — excellent advice as to different wines to try, etc. Store has hosted wine tastings as well which were great!
+ Beautiful and spacious store — Vintage décor line the room and walls and the room is large enough to accommodate a decent amount of shoppers at once without feeling crowded
+ Selection and price is right on point — Rivals any larger chain liquor store in the area for price for liquor and wine. Excellent selection of homegrown craft beer as well
Con’s:
— To no fault of their own, not open Sundays, but what liquor store is in this state? Thanks Minnesota!
Revival is a great, friendly neighborhood store to check out and frequent often! Highly Recommended!
