Gilbert Convenient Mart

This is my favorite place on earth right now! Drove past for years and never went in– now kicking my own arse for trecking all the way to Total Wine when I could’ve been coming here the whole bloody time!!! The beer selection is ridiculous, and the guys that run it are amazeballs! Ready with a super knowledgable suggestion anytime you ask. I wish I could give it more stars!!! The liquor is a bit on the $pendy side, but meh– it beats driving 15 mins out the way to save three dollars. Love it

Awful place, The gentleman working there wasn’t nice at all. Definitely wouldn’t go there again

Quick in and out, great customer service, awesome booze selection. Location is perfect for a quick grab on the way to your party or movie theater…

Great place to get great price on all your liqueur needs. Has some products that can not get at any local grocery stores. Located right in downtown Gilbert.

Review #300. It was a tough choice, but I think this one is it. Short and sweet. We won $ 100 in the neighborhood Christmas light contest and with that VISA gift card firmly in hand, we decided to spend it at GCM. Never been there before, but how could we go wrong, right? That dude from San Diego’s review pushed us over the top. We’re going.
We walked in and were greeted right away even though it was pretty busy on Christmas Eve, and ended up leaving with some delicious beers and even more delicious bourbon. Only had to pay 13 bucks out of pocket. Thank you HOA for the 100 bucks. We’re going to win the $ 250 next year! And a HUGE thanks to GCM for being a great stop much closer to home than the big chain stores. We’ll see you again soon.

Huge range of kegs and I love the fire sale pricing on some amazing selections for the kegerator. The place certainly has character and characters. I’ve always enjoyed the visit.

Preface: i come from the land of beers known as San Diego, and am in town for 3 days. I stumbled upon this store after having pizza next door. Damn, this might just be the best liquor store I’ve seen, and in the most random of places. Walk in, and the first thing you eye is the full spectrum of Ballast Point Brewing Co.‘s liquor (San Diego’s award winning brewery and distillery). They had the vodkas, rums, and moonshine liquors. There was rows and rows of craft beers from all over the place. Insane whiskey selection of rare and hard to find hooch. AND they do growler fills, of which the offerings included the Best Of All Time SanDiego beer from Alpine Brewing Co., which is hard to find even in San Diego!!!
I’ll definitely bookmark this place should I ever come through here again! Highly recommended if you’re looking for a slew of options. Cool as hell guy, I’m assuming was the owner, working also and he knew his beer.

I’m really surprised by the low ratings below, I’ve only had positive and great experiences. I purchased the metal growler and have had it filled several times. Steve was pleasant and recommended some options and everything worked out perfect for me. I’m absolutely going to return often for refills.

I stopped in for a couple of things I assumed I’d end up having to go to total wine or a big chain liquor vendor for and boy was I impressed with the selection! I found the Delirium Red beer I’ve been hunting for and diet ginger beer for Moscow Mules. The beer was $ 6.50 a bottle and the Ginger Beer was $ 9 bucks. Since I haven’t been able to find either I can’t speak to the competitiveness on price points but I was glad I didn’t have to drive all the way to Total Wine AND was able to spend my money at a local mom and pop. The sweet «old man» many have referred to in their posts was delightfully charming and helpful. He was sitting in a chair next the entrance and was the first to greet me when I walked in. He directed me to the ginger beer and hollered to one of his sons on where to find the Delirium Red…1^st isle bottom shelf. …which was pretty cool considering they have hundreds to choose from. It was sweet to see him get up to help a customer lift some heavy cases to the counter only to be intercepted by his son who came running over saying «Pops, I got it». They were really busy and I just l loved hearing them chatter with the customers.

The guys at GCM always go out of their way to help you find exactly what you’re looking for. They always get the rarest beer and communicate those deliveries with their customers on facebook. I used to shop at total wine but I’d much rather frequent a local shop. I got salted Belgium chocolate stout from them and it was so sweet and salty. Thank you GCM!

Absolutely a wonderful stop for ANY beer lover (great whiskey selection too). The family that owns this place is helpful and incredibly friendly. I drive 30 miles to shop at GCM and it’s always worth the drive. Beer selection is amazing and the prices are very good. Give them a shot, you won’t be disappointed.

This place is small but packed to the ceiling (literally) with ever kind of liquor (cheap and expensive) you could ever want or need. The guys who served us was knowledgeable about his stock and great at pointing out some that I had never heard of before. I didn’t find the prices unreasonable at all.

This place is a hidden gem for craft beer lovers in the east valley. This is how my first time in went: They’d posted on Facebook that they just got in the first HopSlam of the season and it would go quick. I was there an hour later, walked in, asked if they had any, and they said that it had already sold out. I was disappointed, and started perusing the aisles for something to numb the pain. After a few minutes, one of the guys that worked there said he had put aside a 6 pack of the HopSlam to share with his father (I think?), but that he’d sell me two bottles out of it if I really wanted. At that point I’d never had HopSlam, so I was desperate to try it, and eagerly accepted! They won me over my first time in.
Since then, every time I’ve been in I’ve had good experiences. They like talking beer. I’ve never felt condescended to. They make recommendations. When I ask where something is, they almost always go and get it for me instead of simply point in a direction.
They have a really great selection of craft beers. They don’t have a lot of space, but they are using it wisely. I routinely see things there I don’t see at the larger chain liquor stores.
I feel really lucky to have found this place!

My wife went in to pick up some special, hard to find bourbon and some KCCO beer for me because she works close by. She told me they were very nice and helpful. She forgot the receipt and I was curious about the pricing so I called them to inquire about the prices of the items. The guy that answered remembered her coming in and asked me right away if there was a problem. I said there was no problem, that I was just calling because she didn’t know the prices of the items. He identified himself as one of the owners and he was very nice. We even had a conversation about the items she bought with him telling me that he really liked the bourbon. I don’t know about the other reviews but this guy was very polite and nice and provided great customer service. We’ll definitely shop here again.

Great beer selection, possibly the best in the eastern part of the basin! Good prices and a nice array of 5-​gallon kegs for my fridge. Plus, they’ll even fill your CO2. (Total Wine doesn’t do that!) The only drawback, if you can even consider this a drawback, is that there’s SO MUCH BEER that sometimes the tiny, crowded aisles can be difficult to navigate. I can only imagine the destruction Costanza’s puffy Gore-​Tex coat would cause…

Tired of seeing the same ol’ beer selection at our local grocery stores, we decided to head to GCM on Saturday night. Although our original intention was to get a growler filled and pick up a 6-​pack, we brought a second growler just in case. Glad we did because not only in the beer selection on tap pretty massive, it’s also pretty cheap. We got a couple trusty local brews that were $ 8.99/each (64 oz) but they had a few that were on sale for $ 4.99 and $ 5.99. Crazy!
The aisles are small but the shelves are packed. So many great choices. The cold selection was pretty good too and they had the normal selection that you would find in the grocery but they also had some other non-​common beers too… just what we were hoping for.
The guys working were nice and service was good. (See my tip). Not quite sure why this place has $$$…It’s not any more expensive than anywhere else. In fact, I think some of the beers were even cheaper here. However, if you want a single beer that’s $ 15.99, you’ll find that here as well.

This place is sad and pathetic anyone leaving a good review either owns a piece of this sh*t hole or never experienced good service. The 2 old men behind the counter are rude and ignorant scum. They treat you like trash from the second you enter the shop. It saddens me to know these two make a living off of being scum to their customers.

I absolutely agree with John K.
I have just recently discovered this place and am glad that I did. When all other big no character chains stores were out of a beer I was looking for, they were able to help me out. Letting me know that they had what I was looking for within a short while after posting the question to them on Facebook.
Once I arrived they even let me know that they had what I wanted in the cooler section as I was grabbing some off of the shelf. Not to mention, they even went and grabbed it out of the cooler for me.
Great selection of craft beer and also growler fills with empty growlers on-​site. This has now become my go to spot for my craft beer needs.

To the girl with the bracelet story — really sorry to hear about that and I would be furious as well if that happened to me. Not going to downplay that situation…
To the guy complaining about the beer not being in coolers. Two things. One — there’s a ton of craft beer back in the coolers. It’s not all on the front shelves. Two — just about every amazing beer selection I’ve ever seen has been on regular store shelves, not in coolers. Many of the beers available there are in fact actually brewed to be consumed at room temperature.
Anyway — I freakin’ LOVE. THIS. PLACE. Nothing better than a somewhat dirty, old schoolish liquor store right in the heart of «conservative central»…Gilbert. Close enough for me to ride my bike, and the best craft beer selection short of Total Wine or Bevmo… but it’s growing all the time! Also a great selection of high end liquor and quite a bit of wine. I talk to the owner every time I go in there, and he’s always ready to show me the latest and greatest additions to the beer selection, even pulling «special» stuff out of the stock room for me at times.

I apologize in advance to all my fellow Unilocalers for the fury that I am about to unleash and for the swear-​bombs that I am about to drop on this review. I will do my best to keep it classy, but mostly just bl**p out any bad words.
GCM (yeah I’m abbreviating them) gets 0 stars on customer service. I came in for maybe 10 minutes while my friends picked up a case of Bud Light and lined up to pay. The case was overpriced in comparison to other liquor stores and super markets, yet when we asked the clerk why, he gave us a sh*tty response about how that’s the price and that’s how its going to be and that’s the logic they follow on prices.
Smart, real smart mister.
But hey! This isn’t even why I am giving it 1 stars (or in my mind, a million negative stars). The next day I noticed that my bracelet was missing and I started freaking out. I called the restaurant where I ate the night before and then I called GCM explaining how I was there the night before and if they had seen the bracelet or have found it.
Now, as a business owner who MAY WANT CUSTOMERS in the future, you know, for profit’s sake, you may want to be nice to your customers and just answer «no, sorry.» if you did, in fact, not see the bracelet. Simple enough right? Well, this person went on a freaking rampage about how «if its on the floor, maybe someone picks it up» «i dont care if someone took it home» «maybe if you dropped it in our counter and you saw it there then we would return it» «i don’t know who has it» and trust me– all these responses were YELLED at me with a couple swear words in it.
WTF GCM? Was «no» not a sufficient answer for you to give, or did you, in fact, did see my bracelet and suddenly got real defensive about it? Do you usually yell at your customers like this? Or did you think I was assuming you stole it? What on EARTH were you thinking?
Every nerve in my body wants to go on an F-​bomb rampage at the end of this Unilocal review (which, I kinda did and then removed it), but instead i’ll just say that I have learnt my lesson and will not be going back. I’m pretty sure my review is going to get filtered or flagged, but I don’t care. Some businesses deserve the help of Unilocal support and love, and some, should just burn in hell.
