Mills Fine Wine and Spirits

We purchased all the wine and beer we needed for our wedding and Jen and her staff were fantastic! They did a great job guiding us on options and quantities. They delivered everything at no extra cost and encouraged us to purchase extra so we would not run out on our big day knowing we could return the extra. We did just that and the transaction was fast and easy. They even unloaded my car and brought the extra back into the store. I could not have asked for any better service.

Terrible! I am a local and I will not go in the store again. SInce it has changed owners the service and quality has gone down. I gave it one more shot this week and again terrible service. You can never find anyone to help and when they do they have no idea what they’re talking about. As a local I’m not even treated like they know me.

Great selection of wine and the staff was incredibly helpful. I was approached by 3 different staff members while I was in there for 5 minutes and they answered all of my questions and knew exactly what to recommend. The address was difficult to find because my GPS took me to the hat store on the next block. Keep walking towards the water and this store is on your right past the bank.

Bottom Line: Historic location, lovely displays, friendly service, huge variety of wine and lots of booze and beer goodies too.
I had some friends visiting Annapolis for the first time from the West Coast. Of course I had to show them downtown Annapolis because there are so many lovely historic sites, delicious eateries, quaint streets and cute clothing shops. Scratch that. We spent most of our time in Mills Fine Wines & Spirits and its easy to do. This store is just nice. The building is historic and the interior is well organized and aesthetically pleasing. Despite a huge selection, you can easily find what you are looking for thanks to clear labeling and friendly staff. In addition to filling my trunk with a variety of beers (including some gluten free and low-​gluten options) and newish Deep Eddy Grapefruit vodka, we found some really cool mixers like Owl’s Brew tea. This is definitely the type of place you want to come when you are not in a rush because there is lots to pursue.

Jennifer is cool as sh*t and there is an excellent variety of adult treats in this store. Service knows their stuff and if they don’t, they do not hesitate to get the answer. Great store!

Customer service is amazing. Really love the delivery option. We frequently ask for a case to be put together and will specify types of wine and a price range. Have never been disappointed by what is delivered to us.

Beer: A very nice surprise– probably the best beer store in Annapolis. It is a massive wine store with about 90% wine, but in the back corner and in the back walk-​in refrigerator room there is a lot of craft beer. You can do a mix-​and-​match your own six pack thing for $ 10 no matter what’s in it. I had Weyerbacher 15 and Celebrator in one of mine! I actually got three of the mix-​and-​match packs with a total of 18 different beers I’ve never tried before! This place also had a bunch of random hard to find large format bottles. Lots of random Belgian stuff I usually don’t see in the states. Really a nice surprise. Definitely worth stopping by. The guy let me have a sweet Troeg’s glass for free!
Whiskey: They stock some impressive bottles with not much markup on special releases. I was able to find a bottle of Arbeg 1990 Ardbeg Airigh Nam Beist, which is all but extinct.
Wine: Staff recommendations for wine were spot on. They really took the time to walk us through the selection and mention a variety of bottles at different price ranges.

I had called last week to order the 2010 Beaulieu Vineyard «Georges de Latour» Private Reserve Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon for a special dinner party in Annapolis. Being that I had ordered this item all the way from San Francisco for a Tuesday Annapolis delivery– I was concerned about the ETA with current traffic, weather conditions, ect. After one failed delivery (on my part, I had failed to provide the actual number to call, instead had entered my own), Jen & Jerry where fantastic as they ensured care and delivery on time for the second attempt. Jen had called to let me know that it arrived in one piece. We couldn’t be more happier for choosing Mills to handle this for us, despite all my follow up phone calls ;) Thanks you guys!

Very friendly and knowledgable staff. They will deliver and have a loyalty program. Lots of great choices and good signage. Really enjoy the experience of browsing and shopping here. Owned by local Naval grads.

I do not know of better wine and liquor collections in the Annapolis area. This is right by the harbor and a perfect spot for picking up a few hard-​to-​find items for a good time.

As a sommelier, Their wine collection alone deserves a 5-​star rating. Often time for good, napa cab, burgundy and Bordeaux are harder to come by and here you can find them. If you’re just looking for a nice bottle to pair with dinner or try to impress any wine connoisseur, they got it all. Look for jerry, he’s the new owner, friendly and very eager to wine talk.

We have lived across the street from this place for the past 5 years and we absolutely love it. They are so kind and always have brilliant recommendations. I’ve even had them set aside something they thought we would like. Since the new owners took over I’ve only been more pleased, they’ve added a rack of staff pics right when you walk in which has saved me just so much time! And I feel the liquor selection has diversified. We drink a variety of beer, wine, and liquor and have always felt their prices to be fair and their selection admirable. Also great sales! They even cured my mans cold with a vile shot of some herbal tonic. This friendly helpful shop is an annapolis treasure

The beer selection is one of the best around. The best part is that they let you customize your own 6-​pack. I struggled to find respectable hefeweizen, but they had several varieties that I was able to personalize. The price was a little high, but it’s about right for imported or micro brews. I can’t speak on the wine because I don’t touch the stuff.

When these guys host vendors, these vendors don’t joke around! I walked in to look for Copa di vino individualized wine servings (which they didn’t have) and stumbled across George and his Maryland based Bloody Mary mix! It’s spicy and delicious with lots of goodness– it’s almost like you’re drinking salsa. These guys gave me a full cup to «taste.» They don’t mess around and George says he’s not a «sample» kind of guy. Point taken :-) I couldn’t finish my «sample» while I was only there for a minute but if you’re looking for a great Bloody Mary mix, this is worth a try:

Great local spot! They recently change ownership but the new owners sent out emails to those subscribed to their listing they plan on making a few changes to the tastings schedule and selections. This store has been a great local spot for years and I think it will continue to be. Great selections and knowledgeable staff. They often have tastings that range from featured whiskeys, wines, gins and vodkas.

While living in the Houston area we had a wonderful store for wine & beer where I was able to get a lot of the craft beer that I love so much. Upon moving to Annapolis I was hoping to find somewhere even half as good and was pleasantly surprised when I found somewhere even better! Mills has an amazing selection of great beers and fabulous wine. And their selection changes frequently so I can always get something new which is another must for me. The staff there is always incredibly friendly helpful. Plus they are dog friendly which is a total bonus to me! if you need a great beer or wine this is the place!

Yeah its a wine joint, but while checking in w/​Yelp & I see I can get 10% off a beer purchase — NICE, I thank U.
burp
wine & beer were fine

I was always impressed with the French wine collection at Mills Wine and Spirit. It was great to visit the store after so long. I took my friends over to show them what I meant, the ones who knew French wines were very impressed with what they had at the store. With regions like Pauillac to Pommerol to Château Neuf Du Pape to Hermitage to Bandol. There were $ 200 bottles of Sauternes or Bordeaux just sitting on the racks. It was wine porn for me. They also had a great selection of German, Australian and South African wines. For the fourth of July they ran a special on French wine, buy one bottle and get the other half off. I guessed I got too carried away but I was happy with two bottles of 2005 Domaine Grand Veneur Château Neuf Du Pape and two bottles of 2005 Domaine de L’Hermitage Bandol.

If I had one prayer, it might go like this…
O Lord, if there was but one Beer, Wine and Spirit shop that could be open 24/​7, 365 days a year including leap year and in Annapolis and never forced me to pay. Please let this be the shop.
Word to the Father.
Amen.
Then of course, I would be sent to that flame engulfing cauldron of molten bile where I would be forced to do «Sweating to the Oldies» with Rush Limbaugh, Tammy Baker, and Bobby Flay… but at least I would have a good buzz on due to the great folks at Mills.
Ok, we’re talking about the holy trinity here. Great selection of Beer, Wine and Spirits… see holy trinity. It even has the holy spirit.
But all blasphemy aside (I’m so gonna be in trouble) there is a great selection here. You can make your own six pack of beer, you have a great selection of wine and here’s what’s really great about this place.
Tastings.
Big deal you say. Sure you can go to places and have tastings of wine and beer. But here, they do tastings of spirits as well… and their liquor buyer does his best to bring you some of the most unique and delicious, ever so delicious libations. Hmm, I wonder if he will adopt me?
Yes, they still have the mainstream stuff… but there is an ardent focus on really good craft beer, wine, and spirits.
Like any shop… talk with them, get to know them… let them get to know you and what you really want and need. This isn’t your chain shop… but a good craft store where the employees really want to make you happy.
I’m happy… i’m gonna burn, but i’m happy.

This place is great. Great beer, wine and liquor selection and a helpful, friendly staff. I went in last week looking for local beers and I found a selection that is unmatched in the area. In addition, I asked for some recommendations and was pointed towards two delicious, but very different brews from two different breweries. I also was able to have a nice chat about local breweries and the products they’re currently making.
Nice selection plus a knowledgeable staff makes this place five star worthy in my book.
(they also have a great selection of somewhat obscure liquors and liqueurs, for those in need)
