LCBO

Horrible service, very rude associates, especially Lowanda. Looks like manager doesn't care.

This is my friendly neighborhood liquor store. In Ontario you have to buy your liquor from the government stores. Yes the government controls all the alcohol and they can sell it to you for what they want.
The prices are outrageous because of the taxes but when you have no other choice because they have cornered the market then you take it with a smile.
You want to return your empty bottles and cans? You have to take them to the beer store instead.
While there are «sales» and stuff at the LCBO you only other membership discount you can use it Airmiles.
For what it’s worth the variety and selection that this particular LCBO is really good. I’m happy with everything, just not thrilled about the fact that they are the only game in town.
I do however like the fact that I can buy just one beer if I want. Not like the beer store where a 6 is the smallest quantity you can purchase.
TIP: If you’re going to buy a lot of bottles check out the armoire type closets after the check out beforehand. You can get the wine bottle 6 or 12 bottle boxes to hold your purchases there.
This particular one is packed but you can and always will find parking. It just depends how far you will have to walk. This structure was built on what was once a Pizza Hut eat in restaurant and is located at Burnhamthope Mall. It’s known to locals as «B Mall.

I almost always opt to come to this location. With my Air Miles in hand, I park freely — taking up 2 spots because THAT’S how I roll. Kidding. Partially.
The parking lot is decent. It’s shared by a strip of a hasty market and other tiny little stores but there’s always room. On the far right end of the parking lot is a big grocery store, so the odd time comes when you have to worry about carts left around the parking lot. This gives me the hulk face. What is up with people?
Also, heads up on the turn into the lot. It’s a free side sauce of XTRA XTRA annoying. –_​–
The location is massive and there’s always a good number of staff walking around to help customers. I also really like the suggestions.
My only complaint — the fruity wine section is tiny and they NEVER have the Wild Vines — Blackberry flavour. They always have the strawberry & Raspberry but NEVER EVER EVER the Blackberry. Whats the deal?
I have a theory — they MUST be keeping it for themselves in the back. They MUST. Pretty sure I’m not the ONLY person that likes that flavour. If i am… then well… I dunno… I kind of still have the hulk face — just thinking about the inconvenience of trying to find another LCBO for this flavour.
