Pat’s Liqour Store

What could be more convenient than a liquor store one block away from the beach? Love this small, OB local liquor/​convenient store. They have a huge liquor selection with lots of specials, especially on wine and beer if thats what you’re looking for. Not to mention all of the snacks and quick bites they have!
The prices are fair and consistent with the store a block down, Abbott Market (same owner). Great customer service, and lots of variety inside this small shop.
Definitely recommend checking it out if you need stuff on the go!

This is literally «downstairs» from my friends house. The staff is always extremely friendly. And they have a wide selection of craft beers, food, wine, & house hold items (like more wine). I don’t think you can beat $ 3.50 specials on wine! They are a block from the beach, and have a water machine out front.

I will NEVER frequent this liquor store again. I would not even give it one star but unfortunately, that’s not an option. The man attending the store at around 2:40 Friday the 5^th of June was extremely rude.
He was asked why his price was so much higher for a shot of fireball than another store up the street when he got really defensive and became rude and short. Then when questioned about his attitude he became more upset and even hostile! I recommend going to the store a block away on Voltaire or to Abbott liquor down the street.

These guys are the homies! There always stoked to see my face when I come in. They have the best price on alcohol in the city. Best price on beers and the have the parrot coconut water. Place is solid. Definitely give them your business

Friendly owners. Loved my dog, whom they thought was a min pin. -

Let me start by saying that I have lived in OB for 5 years and I have been going to Pat’s and Abbott almost everyday dressed in my beach clothes.
(BTW. Both stores are owned by the same guy)
On my way home from work I stopped by Pat’s and bought a pack of smokes. The guy at the counter didn’t recognize me because I was wearing my business clothes then proceeded to charge me an additional .50 cents. His reason? Because I used my debit card for a purchase under $ 10.00.
I explained to him that both stores have waived the .50 cent «courtesy fee» because I am a local. His lame excuse was that didn’t recognize me in my business clothes and therefore I would be charged more money!
I told him that charging customers based on how they are dressed is a bad business practice. He didn’t seem to care so I told him I’d be warning all of you Unilocalers to STAY AWAY from Pat’s!
Depending on what you are wearing, you could be charged a lot more $$$$$

Its like a city block walk from my place n they have zico coconut water (please get pineapple) & starbucks along w a decent assortment of liquor when the time calls for it ;)

It’s a liquor store. They are all over OB. this one is tiny. They have other stuff too. Not saying it is a bad store but I rarely shop here and I live two blocks away. They just have no edge.

I go here everyday for the essential coconut water and budweiser. They have good prices on snacks too!

Liquor stores are the salt of the earth, and this place has a cool, old-​school vibe and a store front that makes it look like it has been around for a damn long time.
It looks like it has a «drive-​thru», but nobody will come out. I just park in it and walk in.
Now I don’t even drink. No I am not a recovering alcoholic. I just choose not to for health reasons. But I will have beer (the darker the better) on special occasions. I stopped in here today to see what they had for the Super Bowl party i am attending, and I needed some Diet Coke.
By the way, they have a pretty cool beer selection. They have your basics, but some micro brews too.
The prices were only a tad high, but really not too bad.
The customer service was great. The guy working in there is super friendly.

Close, reliable for a swell selection of convenience groceries, beers and Spirits, affordable neighborhood prices.

Pat’s has a truly excellent selection. If you can drink it, they have it, and in every size possible. Pat’s is where it’s at.

I’m on a Unilocal review spree and today I’m writing about my favorite local haunts.
Pat’s Liquor is your basic liquor/​convenience store. They have a decent selection of micro and craft brews as well as your normal array of domestic slough. This place is owned by the same people who own Liticker’s and Abbott Street Market. So it’s pretty consistent in price with the local flare.
I live right across the street so this place is extremely convenient. Clerks Mark and his cousin (the skinny guy — can’t remember his name) are funny and love to chat while you make your purchase. It’s as if you’re actually a bar or something. Really cool…
My only complaint is that they need more ready-​to-​eat snacks (like burritos, packaged sandwiches, etc). Then I wouldn’t have to walk to 7 – 11 for snacks!
Four stars based on:
Convenience
Customer Service
Selection

This isn’t really a «drive-​thru» liquor store. There is no parking lot so they let you park in front of the door. There are two lanes, one for the Voltaire St. entrance and one for the Abbott St. entrance. They sell alcohol, cigarettes, and processed stuff, just like every other small, convenience liquor store. The reason I gave five stars, or even reviewed this place, is because they gave me back my prescription Prada sunglasses that I left on the counter the night before.
