Rogers Park Fine Wine and Spirits

Amazing selection, and great service! The owner, Henry, is extremely helpful, accommodating, and knowledgeable. I’m very picky when it comes to my drinks, but every recommendation Henry has give me has been a huge hit.
I cannot recommend this place enough! If you live in the area and haven’t been, do yourself a favor and go.

Great selection of beers. Definitely my new go to!

Great selection of craft beer. They also have the usual liquor and wine etc. If they don’t have it in stock they can probably get it for you. They also have some nice obscure liquor and cordials. Nice people to do business with.

Good craft beer selection at reasonable prices. Very close to my home, so that’s a huge plus.

Haven’t been here in awhile and I was pleasantly surprised to see the selection of new craft beers available in my hood.

Henry has built quite a wine selection here over the last couple years, since remodeling. This one man show, has the best full-​bodied red wine selection in the area. And the craft spirits collection is excellent. You can find Masterson’s Rye here, the top scoring whisky of the year!

I’m really happy to have this place in my neighborhood to quench my craft beer craving, so I decided to write a review. There really isn’t any other store within walking distance that consistently carries a selection that competes with Rogers Park Fine Wine and Spirits.
Huge slection of beers from local breweries like Pipeworks, Spiteful, Half Acre, Revolution, etc… they almost always have at least 3 – 4 different Three Floyds beers in stock too, which is becoming more and more uncommon. They also stock a large selection of imports and other domestic craft breweries. And if you’re in the mood for a High Life or something… they’ve got six packs cold for around $ 3. Highly recommended.

Very impressed by this store. Extremely nice and clean on the inside, a great craft beer selection, aisles of wine and liquor, and all at very reasonable pries. I’m new to the neighborhood and I’m so glad I found a great spot for beer and wine.

Rogers Park Fine Wine and Spirits is at the top of my list of places to go for my craft beer addiction. Henry, the owner, makes it a point to ensure that he stocks ALL of the highly sought after brews when they become available. I went to Binny’s to find Hopslam, they were out. I go to Henry’s spot, he has a case in the cooler. I’ve been in there when he razzes his beer reps for not giving him certain things and the next time, he gets them. He is an advocate for us local beer snobs when it comes to distribution.
He frequently has tastings for beer AND wine and if you’re lucky you’ll be able to try some of his famous hand made pizza or chili. His events are not to be missed, because he will hold back reserves of some of the most highly sought after brews and raffle them off at this events ONLY. I’ve tried to twist his arm into selling me some ahead of time but Henry makes sure that everyone has the opportunity to get the best of the best.
He recently redecorated and it looks fantastic! Ornate ceiling fixtures, new floors, wood shelves, topped of with a cozy bar area in the back.
I noticed that they recently put up a facebook fan page and have been updating it with new arrivals and new events. I suggest you search for it to stay in the loop!
Henry knows what’s good and makes sure that we get it. I will continue to purchase from Rogers Park Fine Wine and Spirits as long as i am in the neighborhood. And even if I happened to move I would still make a trip to come here.

Fantastic selection of craft beer, wine and spirits. Friendly staff to boot. I’m bummed I just moved out of the neighborhood but was turned on to some new breweries by these guys. I’ll definitely return when I’m back in this hood!
This place could use a bit more decorating and some music. It’s eerily quiet in here and with the blank walls and exposed check out counter… something décor wise is missing. d

Rogers Park Fine Wine and Sprits is a gem. The owner, Henry, has very good taste and stocks a great variety of craft beers, interesting wines and uncommon spirits, alongside more popular and typical options.
Every wine recommendation I’ve received from Henry has been spot-​on, and the majority of his selections are under $ 20, with plenty under $ 10. You’re not taking a risk buying just about any wine from this store, they don’t stock any losers.
The selection of cold micro-​brews is hard to match on the Far North Side. He has plenty of seasonal and limited release beers, too, including many that are hard to find anywhere else. If you’re looking for something limited from a Great Lakes region brewery, like Founder’s, New Holland, or one of the many new Chicago breweries, he probably has it.
RP also stocks many great craft spirits from around the midwest and elsewhere. I constantly find interesting selections in other categories, like Cognac and brandy, Scotch and other imported liquors.
RP Fine Wine and Spirits is definitely worth a trip to Rogers Park, or a stop if you’re traveling through.

Henry is the man. Great customer service and fantastic selection. Thanks for building a great wine, beer and sauce joint in my hood so I don’t have to drive ! Friendliest store around. THANKS!

After moving to the neighborhood a few months back I found myself disappointed in the beer selection this far north. As I was riding home from work one night I noticed a small corner store with a few well known craft beer neon signs glowing in the window and I had to check it out. I’ve been a loyal customer ever since and my matured palate owes it all to them. Some might say it’s expensive and maybe but this isn’t a store to pick up a sixer of bud diesel and regret your choice in the morning. If you enjoy the experience of a bitter crisp IPA cutting and cleaning your throat and or the post thanksgiving feeling of a oatmeal stout then you’ve found the right place.
PS: 12 out of 13 coolers are craft beer.

Owner Henry and his main employee have been buddies of mine since the second i walked in the door a few years back… they are friendly, know their products, and have reasonable prices.
I am most happy about their selection of fine craft beers, including anything brewed by those geniuses at Lagunitas.
Keep sourcing new and delicious domestic craft beers Henry!!! Rogers Park needs you!

Obviously everyone who writes a review on this place is a fan and so am I ! It is very close to where I live and I couldn’t be happier. They just finished remodeling so it looks great! They have a whole other store front they took over and the owner said he was going to have about half the store dedicated to more beer selections and hard liquor selections, which is awesome if you like beer and hard liquor (i don’t know who doesn’t?!) ! It’s great to see this place do so well.
The owner is very nice and very knowledgeable about his products. He knows exactly what brand and type of wine will go with dinner or dessert or even for cooking. I don’t know about you, but I sure as hell do not know one thing about wine. It’s nice to see someone do what they love here and is familiar with the products they offer. You can tell the owner takes pride in his business and I love and respect that.
Other liquors stores, such as one right down the street will try to tell you patron and goose is best, which we all know but I guarantee they can’t tell you what will go with a steak dinner or a roast chicken. So if you are in the search for a genuinely good liquor store with affordable priced bottles + good customer service+ FREE wine tasting (of course you got to be 21!) well then this is your little gem on the corner of Clark.
+ cleanliness
+ customer service
+ selection
+ prices
+ free wine tasting: free anything is a plus
+ for the owner cause he rocks

This guy is great. You find here liquor that fits your budget. You want a nice bottle of red for your boss. You got it. You want a forty. They got that too. Want organic beer, Yup. Wine tasting and beer tasting. Big variety of imports. Pet friendly too.

This liquor store is absolutely wonderful. Henry, the owner, is marvelously attentive, funny, and an all-​around good guy. If he doesn’t carry something you want, he’ll do his best to get it in for you. If you come in at the right times, he’ll share a taste of some wonderful new liquor he’s picked up – heck, one time I got a bite of steak he’d cooked (delicious)! The beer selection is excellent, just wonderful, and he changes it up frequently, too, so there is always something new to tempt you. He has an excellent selection of American craft brews, and a nice selection of Belgians and other imports (The St Bernardus Abt 12 never seems to go out of rotation, thank heavens). A good mix between 6-​packs, 4-​packs, bombers, and a few (mostly sampler) 12-​packs. He also carries a small but solid selection of glassware.
The liquor selection, while limited, is extremely well-​chosen (and mostly high end). I’m a gin and bourbon person; his gin selections are exceptional, and he always has some delicious bourbon in stock. His stock of scotches is quite impressive, too. As with the beers, he mixes up what he carries, and you can almost always find something new to try, if you’re in a mood to experiment. I’m not much of a wine drinker; the selection seems good and varied, but I’ll let others comment on that.
Bottom line: fantastic selection, wonderful owner, competitive pricing. If you are in the neighborhood, you should definitely treat yourself and go here. If you are swinging through the neighborhood, take a look too! A perfect spot for the several BYOBs nearby.

This is a nice little liquor store that is exactly what the area needs… not a dirty little whole where selling 40’s are the norm. There is a massive beer selection… lots of microbrews and imports. If you are a fan of Belgian beers (like I am) you will find all the Lambic products (Framboise, Peche, etc) as well as the different Chimay beers and Kwak. Of course they carry the obligatory Bud Light and it’s ilk but you don’t come to a liquor store for industrially produced beer right?
Their liquor selection is good… I’m not really a liquor drinker so I can’t comment too much but on the occasion I do buy a bottle I have been able to find it here. Wine selection is decent, but I find that Taste up on Jarvis has a better wine section.
In all, I would say come here for beer and go to Taste for wine if you are in Roger’s Park.

Great selection of moderately priced reds and an effing AMAZING selection of beers!
They have wine tasting on Saturdays, I think from Noon to 4, but I’m not positive.
Conveniently and well stocked, I’ll definitely be back!

It’s not the most convenient bottle shop to my commute home, but I’m happy to make the detour to support a local mom-​and-​pop. I don’t buy much wine (never have here, actually) but I can always find two or three beers to my liking and rarely repeat myself. Today I was pleasantly surprised to find Wells Bombardier, which I can’t recall ever seeing in the U.S. anywhere. I also picked up a new (?) organic cider from Samuel Smith. Apparently Ommegang makes six-​packs now, so I’ll be back for one or two of those (Hennepin, natch) and whatever else strikes my mood that day.
Just two blocks down the street is a pretty good BYO restaurant, Grande Noodles and Sushi. Stop by this little shop before your dinner.
